ot them had to remain standing.
The girls game started promptly
at eight o’clock. It was a fast
game ihruout and all first three
quarters ended with a tie between
the two teams. During the last
quarter the Stars made three tield
goals which put them tive points
ahead as the Crescents made only
one point. The game ended with a
score of 1!» to 24 in favor of the
Stars. The girls showed some fine
team work and good passing.
Miss VanderStepre of the Stars
srored most of the points while
Agnes Ottersen and Christie Sather
were not fas in the back ground.
Miss* Meek of the Crescents i« a i
sure shot and consequently made I
most of the points for her side. Mrs. ;
Kynning, renter for thr Crescents,
also played an excellent game. All j
the girls played good fast ball. The
majority of the girls on both teams J
