P'WOOD WINS CLOSE
GAME FROM RESERVE
Fast Quintet from Reserve Springs
Surprise on PlentywOOd Fans
Game Was Fast and Scrappy.

Last Wednesday evening, the Re
serve team appeared on the Plenty
wood Farmer-Labor Temple floor for
the first time with a dark-horse team.
The game started slow with Meth
er team showing much speed, but as
the Plentywood boys annexed a couple
baskets, the Reserve players began to
get into action and made several long
shots that made the spectators open
their eyes in wonder.
At the end Of the first half the
score stood Is to 10.
The third quarter belonged entire
~ tc Reserve who while preventing
the Plentywood team from getting a
point annexed four for themselves,
making the score stand Is to ID.
In the last quarter, PlentywOOd
came back with the old flash and an
nexed 6 more points while holding
Reserve scoreless, and at the final
blast of the whistle the score stood
% to IA.
The Reserve team put up a re-
markable game. The team was
composed entirely of home players,
and their chances for practice have
not been the best. They have ma
terial for team that will make any
of the teams in Northeastern Mon
tana step right along if they win
from them.
The Plentywood team showed lack
of practice and at times showed
spurts of the old time speed and
team work. The hall has been taken
up a great share of the time by the
High School and others putting on
entertainments which has prevented
the boys getting together as much as
they should. It is to be hoped that
after this week, the local aggregation
will be able to get the hall for prac-
tice much more often, which is neces-
sary if the local boys are going to
bring home the bacon when they meet
well-trained quintets.
Another thing which would materi-
ally help the boys and give them en-
enlargement to go their best is by
proper support of the home fans by
their presence at the games. The
games which have been played be-
tween the towns teams in Plenty
wood this season have been very poor
ly patrOnized.

PLENTYWOOD WINS
FROM ANTELOPE
Defeat NeighbOring Town on Ante
lOpe Floor After Three Extra Quar-
ters-First Time Antelope Has
Lost on Home Floor +. for Four
Years.

Friday night, the Plentywood Boys
High School Team jouIneyed to An
telOpe, accompanied by large band
of rOOters, and played the High
School boys of that place.
The PlentywOod lineup for this
game had been strengthened by the
addition Of a new player, who is now
eligible for the rest of the basket
ball season and which addition made
the local boys look like different ag-
gregatiOn.
The Antelope boys fought savagely
to maintain their reputation of no
defeats en- the home floor. At the
end of the second half the score stood
at tie.
With the hall ringing with the
cheers and yells Of the fans a fast
and furious quarter was played and
again the score stood at a tie.
By this time everybody was nearly
exhausted with the strain and the
players showed the nervous strain
which they were under, but the sec
ond extra time was played with the
ball surging backward and forward,
first one making a basket and then
the ether At the end of time, the
score again was a tie.
In the last extra time, Antelope
had two free throws and missed, while
Plentywood was awarded one free
throw which was made and which
one point brought victory to the local
boys.
Those who witnessed the game de-
clare that they had not seen such a
game for years and most of the spec
tators could hardly talk above a wills
per the next DAY because of their Wig
orous roofing the night before.

When the Admiral was through

attack on Sheriff's He declared he
sent more sheriffs to the penitentary
in Idaho than any other man that
ever lived. But he could net keep his
mind off Plentywood and continued:

Montana in which cooperation has
not been given US. That was at Plen-

trouble. We hope this soon will be
settled. We do not want to cause the
sheriff any more trouble than is nee
essary."

cause they had read full accounts of
how the Admiral got into trouble in
Plentywood and how he would give
his flagship to get himself out of it.

the Admiral wanted to do away wit
