The outstanding event ofHtne weeA
was the Eagles annual bau At the
opera house Saturday night. NEVER
has there been more beehttfu!v

dtaplay which greeted the eyes OF the
aQcers; walls and ceiling we're COM

work Of red, white and blue. An or

ceptionally! good music. the
gowns Of the ladies' o~utclasaeo any
previous occasion of the year. An
enormous crowd was In abundance
and most OF them did fuii justice 10
the very excellent supper served ny

church.
Thfs has been q gala week for the
ba ak etbatt-fans, all. of whom will feel
much puffed up over Hanna's victor
ies. Thursday Feb. 18th the high
school team defeated the Laramie
3 on the LEGAL floor by a score
Of Is To 6. The three Hanna SUBJ
s~titutes, who played the entire game,
showed that they are going to do
their bit by putting out a good team
for next year. The Props found they
could not break up the Hanna de-
ense, So they resorted to long shoot
ing from which they scored most Of
their points. , The score in this game
does not show the margin by which
the Preps were o~utclasaed, as the
Hanna forwards continually missed
setups. sitter working the ball under
the basket. Saturday evening the
Hanna town team defeated the Raw
Inns De Molay team by q score of is
to a. The first half wss very close
ending s to 4 for Hanna; while in
the second half the local boys were
too much for the Rawlins boys. This
was a good clean game and the Han
ma boys hope to meet the Rawfins
boys on their home floor in the near
future. On Friday the 18th the high
school team shook the jinx off that
superstitious date by trimming the
Superior high at a score Of 81 to 10.
AS soon as the whistle sounded the
Hanna boys proceeded to pile up their
score, and before Superior realized
it the game was half over. the score
standing 26 to s against them. Dur
ing the first half the Hanna boys put
up as fine a brand of basketball as
has beer seen on the home floor this
season. Rider, Lehti and Scarpelli
have rounded into a good serving
combination. while Lahto and Bafton
have developed into two good guards.
