-Vateryille, Jan. 2S-In one Of the
most exciting games ever played in
t: Coburn Gym the Coburn girls de-
feated the Skowhegan High school
girls II to 16. The game was even
up to the last few minutes of play
and Skowhegan lead for most OF ten
time But the Coburn girls displayed
a fine fighting spirit in the closing
moments and with every spark of
energy produced the team came out
vitcors. TO Miss Clark goes the
honor of being the star. She played
a wonderful game and her two bas-
kets in the last period won the
game for Coburn. For Skowhesan
Mis- Shabotw as the individual star,
she was very capable at handling the
ball and her passing was superb.
In a preliminary game the Coburn
second team was defeated by the
Junior High school girls. The game
was one sided with the prep school
girls appearing to be at loss as to
where to pass and what to do with
the ball. The Junior high team
through the work of Miss Fortier
kept things we'll in hand and looked
like a real team.

What is the most conspicu
Gus fault of guards?
Bv JOHN SCHOMMER

Basketball Coach, Armour Institute,
Former U. Of c. Star
The thing which the guard does
which causes his coach more worry
and his team more defeats than any
/, other one point is the fact that he
allows himself to be sucked in" so an
opponent can get between the guard
and the goal that guard is defending.
II you show me a guard who never
does this I have found the perfect
basketball player. OF course. some
goals will be made against this per-
feet guard. because a forward may
shoot even when well covered by an
efficient guard. But 1t Is so mucn
easier for a forward to shoot when ne
is between the guard and the goal
he is shooting for.
