BISMARCK LOSES
TO VALLEY CITY

After holding the larger and more
experienced Valley City high school
basketball players to only Il two
point lead in the first half OF the
game at the local high school gym
nasium Saturday evening, the Bis
marck high school quint in the sec
ono half failed in it's expert defense
work and allowed the Valleyites to
score repeatedly. The final score of
the game was &c to in favor Of the
Valley City quint.
With the exception Of one field
goal, which Hollenbeck scored early
in the game, all Of Bismarck's scores
were made on free throws. Coach
II. f. Collins had instructed his men
to play defensive game only, which
accounts to q considerable extent
for the failure of the local team to
score field goals.
