The Boy Scouts administered the
second defeat to the second team of
Long Prairie, keeping their rec
ord clean with no defeats for the
year.
During the first half, the Scouts
outplayed the Long Prairie boys in
every department of the game but
were bit excited and thus missed
many easy shots. The quarter end
ed 40 in the Scouts favor. In the
second quarter each side succeeded
in obtaining a goal making the half
6-2.
Within the first minute of play in
the second half Strock of Long
Prairie tied the score, from then to
the end of the game the Scouts only
held small margin ahead of their
opponents. The game ended 1910
for the Sauk Centre Boy Scouts.
The outstanding player was Peter
son. His playing was far superior
tn onu nIouor IN oitbar toop,
son should make fine High School
player next year. Strock was Long
Prairie's outstanding player. Arne-
son played a heady and very good
floor game but was unable to con-
meet with the basket. lilies held up
his position at running guard very
well. He was constant threat on
offense and held up the defensive po-
sitive in excellent fashion. Markson
and O'Gara both played good games.
O'Gara played better defensive than
offensive game.
Mr.. Olson is to be complimented
upon the fiashy Boy Scout team which
he has put on this year.
