THE BATTLE OF THE BEES

The George w. Carver Green
hornets attempt to steal the
honey" from the Carver High
Schools Mighty Hornets was not
too successful. The Green-hornets
of Picayune, Miss. locked wings
with the Hornets Saturday night
September 20, 1866 for a score of
Go.
The Greenhornets constantly
threatened to score early in the
first quarter, after fierce strug-
gle up field, they scored. Extra
point attempt stopped by Hornets.
In the second quarter, the Horn
cts exercised their scoring ability.
After forcing the Greenhornets to
turn over the pigskin, the hornets
sent Bonnie "Mr. T. D." Means,
sophomore halfback, across the
goal line with the "honeycone" to
score. This touchdown, a Is yd.
flight, put the Mighty Hornets
back in the game. Extra point.
pass attempt from Jackson to-
Pickett incomplete.
In the last few minutes of the
game, there was a mad struggle
for possession of the pigskin. A
spark of hope arose for the Hornets
when Uranus weaved his way up
field to Picayune's 80 yd. line. Only
a miracle stopped the Hornets
from scoring on the next play. A
miracle for Picayune, a tumble in
the Hornets backfield. Time pre-
vented any other miracles for
either team. Picayune possessed
the ball along the Hornets as at
games end. This was truly a AN
eye for an eye" "a singer for a
stinger) game.

Mr.. Champion made today's
slam contract on a squeeze. But
the squeeze could not have been
executed if the defenders had
played in certain manner.
Mr.. Meek led the queen of
clubs. Mrs. Keen played the
deuce and the king won. How
would you proceed from this
point? There was one possible
loser in hearts and one in dia-
monds. if the latter suit failed
to break 3-3.
If Mrs. Keen had the king of
hearts and only one other heart,
dummy could be entered with
the ace of spades and a heart
tlnesSe would eliminate the loser
in that suit.
Another line of play was to
take a spade f1nesse and, if sue
cessful. discard the six of dia-
mondS on the ace Of spades.
Mr.. Champions final decision
was to lay down the ace of
hearts. follow with the queen,
and await developments. Mr..
Meek won the second heart lead
and could have ruined the
chances for a squeeze by return
ing q spade. If Mr.. Champion
took a spade finesse he would
lose to the king and that would
be the setting trick. If he went
up with the ace, he would be
using up dummy'S last entry.
But Mr.. Meek, playing it the
safe way as usual. returned the
10 Of clubs. Mr.. Champion won
with the ace, cashed three more
trumps. then laid down his three
top diamonds.
Next came the last trump,
getting everybody down to two
cards. Mr.. Meek couldn't dis
card his jack Of clubs without
setting up dummy's nine spot, so
he got down to one spade. The
nine of clubs was played from
dummy, leaving there only the
ace and queen of spades.
Now Mrs. Keen was forced to
keep the jack of diamonds to
beat Mr.. Champions six spot
and she. too, had to part with a
spade. Mr.. Champion won the
last two tricks by leading a spade
and going up with dummy's ace.
This dropped the king and the
queen won the last trick.
