Johnny Mach's boys soon discover

is reported the local men had the
ball the greater part of the time
they could not make their shots
count as successfully as their foes,
and the Wildcats dropped only three
of eight free losses. In the latter
department, Williston made two out

seconds. edsing u their opponents

throughout except the first few min

A capacity crowd crammed the
gym for the game, at times bullying

Plentywood made three baskets
before Antelope scored. The home
boys went 10 work with some fancy
shots that connected and at the
first quarter mark were leading 10

the Wildcat defense frightened TO

while the Cats Embossed a scoring
attack that netted 10 points and
victory.
The low ceiling and small floor
doubtless handicapped the Wildcats
to some extent. but in Antelope they
met a club which will be hard to

awaiting the next meeting of these
two teams.
Backer, Wildcat guard, led scor-

Plentywood, Fiske scored three bas-
kets for six points, Parker seven
points, and Stenehiem 4. Kjelstrup,
