Freshmen Show Class in Game Of Basketball With Seniors.

The high school basketball contests have been proving very interesting and the one held Friday night at the armory between the Seniors and the Sophomores on one side and the Juniors and the Frqshmen on the other, was so lively as to create a great amount of applause from the partisans of the teams.

The Juniors had no representative on the Juaipr-Freahmuu team, which was composed of the first year lads on'/ but they proved their ability by defeating the upper classmen by the leci.'.ive of 32 to I>. The first lv» f vae closely congested and at the close iLe Seniors had a lead of one point, the score being 9to 8. The secn . however, s*.w a reversal of things. The Seniji ? could not hit the baskets and their ,4 jauf# lost track of the Freshman forwards, while the “freshies” put up a very classy game throwing some difficult baskets and indulging in some good team work. Parks excelled in basket throwing, while Clark and York were effective guards. Although played with vigor the rivalry was friendly. The Senior team was composed of Kirk, Casey, Allman, Haas and Hemphill, and the Freshman team of Parks, Porter, Clark, Colvert and York. Another game will be played next Friday night to which a ten cent admission will probably be charged. Games have heretofore been free of charge.
