Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 47, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 February 1909 — St. Joe Beat High School. [ARTICLE]

St. Joe Beat High School.

The basketball game between the high school and St. Joseph college at .the armory Wednesday night was hotly contested and the college boys were victorious by a score of 44 to 33. It was fought out to the finish and on several occasions the high school got their team work gong and It looked as though they* mould catch up, but the strong work of Dowling, the star St Joe center, was too much for our lads. The freshmen from the high school played a young team from St Joe and the best Peter Thompson’s scrappy warriors could do was to submit to a 36 to 4 score.
