In the opening of the basketball
season, State easily defeated her op
ponents in the Armory last Friday
night. The spirit and ginger dis
played by the team throughout the

state's many well achie.red athletic
Conquests. Captain Hemann, who
is suffering with rheumatism, was
unable ' to participate in, the initial
contest,' but expects, to lead the
team in ?the games scheduled for
