whose names have filled the states

nection with the tournament. at Lar

Rawlins band and otherwise made
to feel that this city vas and ID

week at the University city. Win
ming third place in the tournament
as 1t did, this team now proudly
possesses a beautiful silver loving
Gun. while each member carries an
individual trophy in the form OF a
silver basketball. This is better
than any team representing Rawlins
has ever done before. and the city
IL indeed pleased with the record
they have made.
On the other hand. the team it
self has expressed its gratitude for
the support given 1t by Ra~lins in
dividuals II organizations. Many
wires of encouragement we're re-
ceived at the times they would do
the team tho most good. Every
member feels especially appreciative
OF The support given by the local

JUNIOR HIGH
GETS HOLIDAY
LAST FRIDAY

For the first time in three years
the Junior High School of this city
won a half holiday last Friday be-
cause of an attendance which over
aged better than 95 per cent per-
feet for q period OF SIX weeks.
This plum offered by the school
borad as nm influence for better at
tendance effected 1875 pupils. The
holiday was won for an average at
tendance OF s7h per cent rather
than the 96 per cent score required.
1t Is safe to state that the atten-
dance at the Republican office on
that particular Friday afternoon waa
equally noteworthy. The tourna-
ment was the all-engrossing feature
OF the day and 1t was natural that
these students should flock At points

mately twenty-five hundred people
who witnessed the game last night
left the Armory with any doubt as
to whether the better team won, &C.
cordinE to the showing made In that
particular game. Laramie beat Raw
Inns worse than the score indicates.
In the early stages Of the game 1t
looked like a victory for the thous-
ant-point wonders, but they couldn't
stand the strain for thirty-two min
utes. This does not mean that Raw
Inns isn't a good team: she is one Of
the best seen In action this year.

enemy no time to prepare for the of

shots. Pierce's shooting vas nothing
short of wonderful. and even though
Johnnie Engstrom admittedly had an

at finding h hoop. Rawlins suffer-
ed somewhat by the strictness of
Dana's ~refereeing. having seven per
sonals to L.aramie's two, a fact which
Is sugnificent when compared with
the Cheyenne-Laramie game. There
Laramie played r ratively
