IN SPIRITED GAME
The Blues defeated the Whites in
the preliminary basketball game last
evening by the score of 20 to 2 but
the score does not mean it was an un

for these girls teams always give the
fans a run for their money.
McIntosh was high point girl for
the Blues dumping in eight field shots
with Leslie coming through with two.
Jean Merritt gave the Whites their
lone basket.
Jean made her basket only after a
bard fight down the floor. Harrison’s
guarding was again on of the features
>f the game. Larsson also played a
strong game but the Whites had
;ough luck in shooting.
Cecil Leslie was in the game all the
ime, also Neville but the latter’s
.hooting was away off color according
o her usual accurate shots.
The lineups were, Blues- Leslie,
jenter; Bert and Betty, forwards;
losness and Neville, guards. Whites
larsson, Horton, Harrison, Alva Peter
son, and Jean. Referee, Lenhart.
