this season; yet the visiting aggre-
cation was no match for Miss Myers
surprising sextet. The Clarkdale
maidens played a great game, but
they were out of the running when
the local sextet got under way
All the members of the Winslow
team played surprising basketball.
Camp and B. Williams made even
better showing than they did in
the Game two weeks ago with Gallup,
holding their opponents to only five
points. Their defensive work is al
most impregnable to their forward
opponents. Seldom is a basket made
On them. Hart and E. Williams,
running center and center, are COM
bination that has disheartened every
team that has come here this season.
These two running mates know their
game and thus far they have played
it with skill and generalship. Proctor
and LaPrade, the scoring machine,
are getting better and better. If
they continue to improve as they
have in the games played heretofore
this year, what will they do at the
end of the season? A miss is an
exception with them now and not the
rule.
If the local sextet continue to i'm
prove, each player perfecting herself
as a unit of the team, and do not
let over-confidence defeat them, they
will make a combination that is hard
to beat at the end of the season.
Winslow opened up with a score
at the beginning of the game Satur-
day night, Proctor making a field
goal. LaPrade followed with one a
few seconds later. Proctor garnered
point out of two free throws, fail
ing on the first, but making the
second. The game was fast and
rough; both squads played to gain
lead neither one going cautiously
to feel its way. Howard of Clark
dale failed to make free throw on
Winslow foul. Proctor then made
field goal Howard made the sec
ond of two free throws on a foul,
the first point for Clarkdale. Proc
tor made another field goal before
the quarter ended, the score being
8 to l in favor of Winslow. The
guards and the centers Of the visiting
team played very good game, but
they could make no headway against
the local squad.
At the beginning of the second
period, Davey of Clarkdale made a
beautiful field goal, the first one of
the game for Clarkdale. LaPrade
then followed with two for Winslow.
Proctor and Davey failed on free
throws, but Howard made field goal
for Clarkdale. Proctor also made
field basket, the half ending Is to 5.
Clarkdale failed to score a point
during the second half. In fact she
seldom got even a chance at bas-
ket, the ball for the most part being
PLAYED on the Winslow side of the
court. At the beginning of the third
period LaPrade failed with two free
throws but roped a field basket,
Proctor makino second. LaPrade
shot two field goals in quick success
sion. Proctor boosted the score still
more with a free throw and field
basket, failing, however, with two
free throws shortly afterwards. La
Prade failed to score a point on
free throw. Proctor boosted Wins
lows lead with field goal, LaPrade
adding two more points with another
just before the quarter ended, the
score 81 to 5.
Proctor shot a field goal in first
two seconds of the fourth period
Clarkdale substituted players in an
effort 10 curb the lead, and Miss
Myers substituted Tully, forward,
and Russell, guard, to give them an
opportunity to play Both gave
good account of themselves during
the quarter. Despite Clarkdafe's
substitutions to stem the lead Wins
low romped around the visitors at
will Proctor shot pretty field
