Helen Wills can only conquer

advantage
This was the opinion OF the ex.

the comparative results of the play

Upon the basis of comparative
play against Mrs Aeschlimann
Suzanne should be able to gain an
easy victory over the California
girl, the experts agree. However.
they admit that the psychological
breaks of the game are with the
American girl, who is cool and col
Iected and always prepared to take
every advantage which comes her
way whereas Suzanne is tempera-
mental and might very easily be
thrown off her game by the very
composure of Miss Wills.
Whether the two will meet ON
the Riviera. Is still a matter of
wide conjecture, but much of the
anticipation over the proposed
match has disappeared. The
eagerness for the battle has been
dmIIed by the superior showing
which Mile. Lenglen made against

suggesting that the French Lawn
Tennis Association take steps to
force a match between Miss Wills
and Mile Lenglen attracted great
attention here, but it was the gen
eral opinion that no such steps
would be taken.
Mile. LengIen is considered about
as powerful as the French Lawn
Tennis Association. and there Is
very little likelihood Of that organi
Zation attempting TO force her into
any match. .,

orders In comparison with reports
for the same period last year, despite
the fact that Is more mills reported

in new business. The hardwood op-
erations showed satisfactory increases
in ell three factors-especially in new
business-when compared with re-
ports for the previous week when 1874
mills reported.

WINTHROP VS.. SLEEPY EYE

This game proved to be the sur
prise of the tournament, Winthrop
carrying the role of Ozark Horse"
Sleepy Eye was doped to win with
out extending themselves and be in
fine fettle for the championship tus-
sic with Gaylord. But the game
turned out to be real thriller, Win
throp carried the battle to their door
step and they were forced from the
opening gun.
The first quarter started off in due
form, Sleepy Eye gathering six points
before Winthrop could count. Win
throp had failed to make a single
point out of five chances at free
throws and the quarter ended with
Sleepy Eye on the long end of II
to score.
The second quarter Winthrop came
back and held Sleepy Eye without a
single basket and four free throws,
while Winthrop gathered three bas-
kets and four free throws. The hall
ended with Winthrop leading by one
point, 16 to Is.
When the whistle sounded the op-
ening of the second half it was evil
dent that Sleepy Eye had found them
selves and they gave an exhibition of
the brand of basketball that had plac-
ed them in the semi-finals.: Hanson of
Sleepy Eye found the basket for three
goals before Winthrop could score
and ne succeeded in making two. more
before the half ended, Foster added
two field goals and a free offering
while White contributed free shot
boosting the total to 81. Lotus for
Winthrop was the only one that
could find the basket in the second
half, making two while Splitosser
made three free throws and Olson
one, ending the game at 81 to "a for
Sleepy Eye.
This game gave Sleepy Eye the
right to meet Gaylord in the Cham
plonship game Saturday night.

LAMBERTON VS.. GAYLORD

In defeating Morton, Lamberton
won the right to meet Gaylord, the
conquerors of New Ulm. Gaylord
appeared on the floor with badly
crippled team, the effects of their hard
tussle with New Ulm. After a few
minutes of play it was evident that
Gaylord was master of the situation
and would go into the finals with
colors flying. The first half ended
with a lead of to II for Gaylord
with each member of the team shar-
ing in the scoring.
The second half Gaylord started
their effective stalling game which
they have worked to perfection,
pilingup II points while Lamberton
received but five.
Corcoran and Wallin did the heavy
work for Gaylord, while McKibben
and Gerhard carried the brunt of the
battle for Lamberton.

TRICT AT MARSHALL,

PLAYING WINS COW
ETED TROPHY

Gaylord, by defeating Sleepy Eye
was acclaimed the district champs
and earned the right TO enter tn
Regional tournament to be held a
Marshall, March 10Th. Gaylord
has one of the best teams ever
turned out at that school and unde
the able leadership of Coa>:i Sarcha"t
it has become team on a par with
most college teams. Gaylord is ;
rangy team with Corcoran a danger
Gus man whenever near the baske'
and HyZer, who with his dribbling and
pivoting is always dangerous. Lin
dali, captain of the team, held Will
hite, Sleepy Eyes high scorer, score
less in the last fray, while Wallin
always comes in for his share of the
baskets. 1t is predicted that Gay
lord will go into the finals at Mar
shall.
Morton, by its clean playing, won
the craftsmanship cup, which is al
WAYS the one mark of distinction to
which every school looks forward,
and which Morton can be justly proud
of winning. Referees Rogers ans
Mcdonald said that it was the hard
est tournament that they had ever
worked in this respect IN that every
team represented was an example OF
craftsmanship and the only way they
could come to any definite conclusion
was to eliminate the two teams who
were in the finals since they were to
receive cups.
Sleepy Eye won the next cup as
runners up and also the basketball
which was used in the afternoons
play, while Gaylord received the
ball which was used in the game
which they won.
Rogers and Mcdonald were the Of
ficials and they handled the games in
a very efficient manner, the coaches
voting them the best officials that
ever worked tournament.
The following is a resume of the
games:

MORTON VS.. LAMBERTON

The second game of the preliminar-
les found two teams total strangers to
each other, meeting in combat.
The first quarter started with Lam
berton taking an early lead, get
ting nine points while Morton was
held for a lone basket.
The second quarter Lamberton pill
ed up their lead with baskets by Nc
Kibben and Gerhard while Morton
succeeded only in free shot and one
field goal by Vending. Morton made
repeated shots from in under the bas-
ket, but was unable to count, Good
thunder, Morton's scoring ace being
held scoreless. The half ended 19 to
five for Lamberton.
Morton came back in the second
half and Goodthunder sank three bas-
kets before Lamberton could find

stride and it was not long before the
score was knotted. Goodthunder was
keeping pace with McKibben and the
score was kept nip and tuck. AL
though Morton outscored Lamberton
N this half Is to nine the early lead
piled up by Lamberton was too great
and the pace set by Morton found
them too weak to resist the determin-
ed attack set by their opponents. The
game ended "a to 20 for tamberton,
giving them the right to meet Gay
lord in the semi-finals. The scoring
was as follows: Morton, Goodthunder,

/ lord tied with an under-basket shot
soon after, while Corcoran added
field goal, putting Gaylord in the
lead, never to be headed again. 1t
was apparent after few minutes of
playing that he crowd was watching
the cream Of the district, playing a
rand OF basketball seldom seen in
high school circles. The first half
tnded &c to with Gaylord in the
lead.
IN the second half Gaylord started
the stalling game that has been
marveied at all during the tourna-
ment. They would draw Sleepy Eve
out of their defense and like shot
would break and q field goal would
always be the ultimate result. Gay
lord appeared not to suffer in the
least from her two previous games
and was as fresh as if it was their
first game, pivoting, lodging anu
dribbling every minute of the game.
The game ended 35 to IL, giving Gay
lord the right. to represent the
twentieth district at Marshall. The
fans are sure that the best team in

Redwood Falls VS.. Sleepy Eye

The last game Of the evening prov
ed to be one of the fastest games
ever seen in high school basketball
circles in this city and even though
Redwood Falls lost, the fans know
that every man on the team was do
ing his best to win. Their loss was
one of those phenomenal things that
happen in every game, just plain hard
luck all the way through. The boys
played one of the best games of the
year, and resume of the game tells
the story. Redwood made 10 field
goals to Sleepy Eyes nine and only
made four out of fourteen free throws
while Sleepy Eye made eight out of
Is.
The first quarter started fast and
furious with close guarding featured
on both sides and it was several min
utes before Corbett got away for a
field basket, and followed with an
other shortly after. Lally, not to be
outdone, added his basket before
Sleepy Eye could count. White
broke away for the first counter for
Sleepy, Eye and Hansen added an
other. Clarence Schmidt added his
offering, raising the total to eight
while kroeschel marked up three free
throws and White another, tying
the score. The quarter ended with
Corbett and Kroeschel each gathering
basket, tying the score at ten all.
In the second quarter Redwood
made two field goals via the Schmid
brothers while Sleepy Eye tied the
score with field goal by White and
two free throws by Joster and Hansen,
making the score Ia, all at the half
way gun.
The second half saw each team re-
solved in an earnest endeavor to win
and caution was thrown to the winds,
shooting from all angles of the floor.
One minute Redwood would be ahead
and the next would see Sleepy Eye in
the lead. With but one minute to
play Redwood was leading and with
half minute the score was tied
"a all. With seconds to go the
Sleepy Eye captain, Kroechel, made
basket from a difficult angle, the
ball striking the floor as the finish
gun sounded. The score was 26 to
"a.
Thus ended the 1926 basketball
season for Coach Hoffert and his team,
one of the best teams that has ever
represented the high school and Red
wood Falls. Coach Hoffert is to be
complimented on the team he has
moulded out this year, team that
was never beaten until the final
whistle, team that thought just as
much of true craftsmanship, clean
athletics and team work as they.
thought of winning. games. Coach
Hoffert has made it a point that the
team that represents Redwood high
school shall be a clean, hard playing
team and in this he has also succeed
