FRANCESVILLE EASY PREY; SCORE IS 47 TO 12

Francesville high school, boasting of a wita over the strong Medaryville five, came to Rensselaer Wednesday evening intent on scalping the Red and Black. For their attempt they were terribly mangled by the men of Schaupp in a onesided affair, curtains finding Rensselaer in the lead 47 to 12. At no time during the evening did the game resemble a contest and the first period closed with the home five on the long end of a 21 to 8 count. Francesville’s passing was poor and thedr team work was exceptionally so and they had difficulty in working the ball toward Rensselaer’s goal. Their attempts at goal shooting were pitiful with the exception of one of their forwards. For Rensselaer the work of Grow at back guard stood out lake a'beacon light. In the opening period Coach Schaupp used some of his see-1 ond string men who were replaced by regulars in the second stanza. 1 Captain Collins and his brother rung up many points and Tilton and Larsh added greatly to tße total in the final chapter. Arnott, one ofthe regular guards, was forced to leave the game the second half and was replaced by Jay who did well. Medaryville will be the next opx>nent to be met hero, coming here Friday evening of this week.
