BEDFORD ON TOP
AFTER OVERTIME
Columbus Rivals Beaten in
Furious Contest.
By Times Special

BEDFORD, Ind. Feb. 3.-The local
high school basketeers continued their
winning streak by taking their second
game of the season from the strong
Columbus team in an overtime game
Friday by the score Of 25 to %. The
score at the half was 8-S. The end
Of the regular time saw the score at
1922.
1t was Girdley who deserves the
credit for Friday nights victory, al
though the high scorer was Benzel,
with four from the field and six from
the foul line. Girdley had two from
the field and was the shining star with
his clever floor work. In the over
time game it was a long shot i'm
mediately after the extra session
started that took the pep out OF the
visiting crew.
Jones, the boy who has shown to
such advantage Of late and who al
most single-handed brought the locals
from behind to a win when they
visited Columbus two weeks ago, was
d marked man Friday and did not
score. Holding fouls proved costly for
Columbus and Offset their field goal
advantage. Captain Howe and Zelgler
both played furiously in an effort to
gain victory, but Bedford held the
ball when it obtained a three-point
lead in the overtime and the best the
visitors could do was one foul goal.

WATCH OUT FOR
BLOOMINGTON IS
BASKET WARNING
Southern Team Shows Flash
of Greatness Against
Franklin Five.
BY VEDDER GARD,
Times Stat Correspondent

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Feb. g.
You can never count Bloomington
High School out of the running. The
team demonstrated Friday night that
with all of its players in the game
it is one of the most formidable net
aggregations in the State.
Coach Wakefield's five simply swept
Franklin off it's feet by the overwhelm-
ing count of 81 to IA. The losers We're
hopelessly out-classed from the start
by the speedy attack Of Bloomington.
A tip to other schools Of Indiana is
Watch Bloomington!
The result was totally unexpected,
but now the contest is over State fans
Will have to revise the dope somewhat
and count Bloomington back in the
running with vengeance.
The team has been down in the
depths for several weeks, but some Of
the stars are getting back into shape
and the new men are finding them
selves. The result is rather startling
as the Franklin score indicates.
Franklin on Form
Franklin was in a terrible slump
and played miserable ball. but Bloom
ington was just as good as the State
champs were bad. 1t is the worst de-
feat that anybody can remember ever
being administered to the Johnson
County boys. Little McQuiston was
the only Franklin player who fought
/ throughout.
Bloomington lined up at the start
with Stull and Hill at forwards. Farm
er at center and Correll and Albertson
at guards. II is a new team. None
Of the men played last season. Stun
came from Smithville. Hin is a last
years substitute,
Farmer at center. IS playing his
first year Of basket-ba and looks like
a find. He is taking Wells place, who
graduated at the close Of the first
semester. Cornell and Albertson last
season played on the second team.
Kruger IS the only veteran left,
He was in the game about half Of the
time Friday night and his presence
made a great difference. He is won
derful player with a burst Of speed
who is very difficult 10 stop under the
basket. His peculiar one-handed shots
puzzle opposing guards. He is the
big threat Of Bloomington.
