CONSOLIDATED TEAM PUTS UP GOOD FIGHT

The Rensselaer Grammer school basketball team defeated the South Marion Consolidated school team Friday afternoon by the score of 34 to 16. The teams were made up of boys from the seventh and eighth grades. The Consolidated school boys showed up well and showed the Grammer school boys they had to work. The good training of the Grammer school boys caused them to outclass the other boys. Leonard Webh was the star for Consolidated school, making six field goals while Wayne Titon was star for Grammer school boys, making ten field goals. The Consolidated school will return the game next Tuesday evening at the high school gymnasium.
