Grammars � Primaries � High Schools Tie For Second.
Rurals Last

Picture (25x23, 169 bytes)n a tight game with the High School department, the Home Economics won the championship of the girls basketball league. The Home Ecs were ahead throughout the game, but were followed closely by the High Schools. The game was exciting from start to finish, as was the Grammar-Primary game which ended with the Hash Slingers only two points ahead of the Smith prot�g�es, the score being 5-7. The preceding games were good, bad or indifferent. From the standpoint of men�s basketball, the girl�s games were fast but loose. Holding, charging, blocking, over guarding and similar fouls which would not be permitted in the men�s games, were allowed to run riot. If they had been held to the narrow margin of men�s rules, the girls games would have been a total loss. As it was, however, the players put on a fine exhibition of basketball, notwithstanding the hair-pulling and rough work.

Three Teams Tie
Picture (25x22, 163 bytes)he second place is divided equally between the High Schools, the Grammars and the Primaries. The Rurals and the Home Ecs are tail and head, respectively, with four losses and four wins. The other three teams each won two and lost two games. As was generally predicted, the Home Ecs were the class of the tournament, with an unbeatable squad. Their guarding was consistent, their offense good and their players well coached and of no mean ability. They were threatened only by the Primaries, who held them to a 10-11 score. Those playing during the tournament for the winning team are: Shoaf, Lord, Anderson, Lohr, Timme, Losby, Sheasly, Ascott, and Wright. The scores of the games, in order are: Rurals 14-H. Ec 58; Primary 26-H. S. 7; Grammars 31-Rurals 8; H. Ec 11-Primary 10; Rurals 6-H. S. 18; H. Ec 14-Grammars 10; Grammar 7-H. S. 12; Rurals 6-Primary 16; H. Ec 17-H. S. 9; Grammar 21-Primary 16.
