1--f Special to tbe Times)-- high school simad considered the best 1 bet In tho present tournament wna oliinlDutctt this morning In ihe flrinl round elimination series by McClfliu high of Greenfield the score being 11 to 10 at the close of au extra five minute period. The score stood 9 urtrt at the end of the regular 20 minute period and In the five minutes extra P. H. S. made one point while Greenfield came through with two points.

The defeat of Portsmouth at this stage of the tournament was the big surprise of the tourney this year for the River City outfit was counted on as carrying home the silver loving cup and title of champs of southeastern Ohio In Class A. Another surprise ivaK Iho outcome of the first (tame played yesterday afternoon when Irontou high won tver Athens 12 to 10. Washington C.

Tliis morning CMllicothe won qver Xew Straltsville'leaving Ironton to play NelBOnvllle nnd Chllli- cothe meeting GreenJtleil in the Heml-finuls this afternoon. Portsmouth handed Nelsonvllle a crush- defeat in Portsmouth several weeks ngo and Is. expected to fall before Irouton. It Is a toss up between ChilHcothe iind Greenfield. ChlUlcothe has the edge according to Ihe dope for they have defeated Greenfield already this season.

Tho first half of the Portsmouth- Greenfield game was 4 to 2 in favor of P. H- S. The failure of Captain Phillips and ilouk, star forward, to score a field basket shows that the Greenfield ladi played a close guarding- game. Guards Gose and Flowers and forward Doll made ono field goal each with Qose nddlug a free throw and leading tn the point getting with three, Phillips made a foul shot and Monk came through with two free throws. The P.

H. S. team with, all their championship hopes blasted will return home on the evening B. aiid 0. train.
