Everything considered it was the best game of the season. The floorwork of both teams was extremely good; neither team could be given preference in this depart ment. In shooting the sophomores excelled, securing eight goals to their opponents five. Hartman for the sophomores, was by a wide margin the star of the game. This little forward play ed his best game of the season securing six of the eight goals scored by his team. For the fresh men Davidson at center played an unusual game. He proved fully equal to his more experienced opponent in this position and at shooting excelled. Spangler 'l5 and Shelley 'l6 shone as guards. The scrap, on the whole, was an ideal one. Class spirit, although high, was clean and commendable. The same can be said of the con testing teams, the usual roughness which formerly prevailed at this contest being almost entirely absent. limsis:w.allawinur . • "4%5 Ho tiler f. McCoy f.
