NO ROCKS ON COURT;
AGGES WIN GAME

Didn't we tell you so!
In a doubleheader game played
last night on the indoor court of the
Aggie school, the Aggies defeated
both Leesburg and New Era. Both
bouts were well played, with the vis-
itors displaying great skill at the
game.
But there are no rocks on the Ag-
gle court. And you can't beat Aggie
on a smooth court. Aggies players
admit this.
The score with Leespurg was 81
to II, while New Era ruhg up only
IL points against the Aggies' 25.
The three teams were all in fine
form, and fans who attended saw two
great games played.
