throw their man for a big loss, and
katarzy used good generalship through
out the game.
Libby's line was also deserving Of
praise. Poison couldn't dent it except
on rare occasions Hough at center was
true in his passing and stonewall
against attack. Hills and Hanson stop
ned everything as guards, Darlington.
Harmon, Woodwork and Woods did
their part of the work, while Detiens
and Holiday at ends were in the thick
of every PLAY. In the early minutes of
the game, Woodwork received a bad
cut under one eye and had to be re-
placed
