ing county champs a n d North
League champs, moved step
closer to retaining tn c ir title

team holding much of an adj
vantage at any time. Magnetic

MARYSVILLE TOPLAY AT MT. GILEAD,
FIVE COUNTY GAMES ARE ON SCHEDULE

The Marysville-Mt t. Gile a d
game will be a Mid-State League
contest, in which the Monarchs
are favored but could easily be
the victims of an upset.
Although Mt. Gilead has yet
to win League game this season,
while Marysville is undefeated in
League play, the fact that the
tilt is on Mt. Gilead's floor gives
the Indians plenty of advantage.
The gym there is small and the
ceiling low, and visiting teams
generally find it hard to play an
even average game on it. Conse-
quently, the Monarchs can look
for a difficult time of things be-
fore they can come out on top
this week.
Among the county games over
the weekend, only one is a non
League tilt. This is the Dover
Allen game, which will be played
in the Marysville bym.
First place in the south league
will besat stake Saturday night
in the Watkins Union game,
neither team having been de-
feated in League play so far. In
the North League, York is given
only an outside chance of knock
ing undefeated Broadway out of
first place, while the Redwood
Magnetic tilt should provide the
fans with plenty of excitement.

MONARCHS MEET
LITTLE OPPOSITION
FROM DELAWARE
Final Score is As %
In Rough. Tumble Tilt.
Reserves Also Win

Playing their best brand o1
basketball to date, MarySville
High Schools Monarchs had fan
too much for Delaware and won {
45-22 decision from the Panthers
in the Marysville gym, Tuesday
evening. Marysville Reserves
likewise encountered little oppo-
sition from Delaware and won
1921.
Except for a short period in the
third quarter, Delaware was
never in the picture. There was a
brief furry just after the second
half began, in which Marysville
could not score and the visitors
registered six points. But as the
quarter ended, til e Monarchs
came to life again and, even with
subs playing much of the last
stanza, outscored Delaware again.
In fairness to the visitors, it
must be pointed out that their
high scoring forward, Johnson,
was i'll with the flu and unable
to play. But even SO, it is doubt
full that Delaware could have
made a much better showing
against Marysville. Except for
ga" sophomore center, Jim Nc
Kinnie, the Panthers are about
as enept a basketball team as the
Monarchs have faced all season.
All Looked Good
For the Monarchs, outstanding
performances were turned in by
all boys. Johnny Dayton, back in
the lineup for the first time since
the Columbus West game, was
excellent in feeding the ball to
the center and forward positions,
and plenty good on defense.
Jerry Kingsmore, who w a S
guarded so closely that he got
only eight points (his man kept
Kingsmore from scoring by the
simple expedient Of holding him
most of the time and the officials
seemed to think it was all right,
continued to show an improved
brand of floor play and some
good defensive work, too.
Bill Wall looked especially
good on defense, and his alertness
in intercepting Delaware passes
did much to keep the Monarchs
far ahead of the Panthers. Jack
Mcclure and Harry Evans, for
wards turned in their usual
steady, hard-to-beat brand of
ball as they shared the scoring
honors with II points apiece. Also
impressive was the play Of Guard
Art Streng, who, like Dayton,
was back for the first time since
an illness.
Reserves Win Easily
Delaware tried both a man-for-
man and zone defense against
Marysville, and neither, proved
effective in stopping the Mon
archS.
The visiting Reserve team put
up a token resistance to IIarys-
vile Reserves in the first quarter
of the preliminary game, but af-
ter that was no match for the
little Monarchs. Marysville held
90 lead at the end of the first
quarter, but stretched their mar
gin to 22-ll al halG-time and 30
10 at the end Of the third quarter.
Bill Boyd hit for nine points to
lead the Marysville Reserves in
scoring, while Smith and Kee-
baugh each got seven for Della
ware
