Two field goals tossed through the south net in the last minute of the extra period decided the contest in 1 favor of Coach Potts' proteges. The game was 'a hard fought one, with Northeast on the short end most of the time, but hanging on. like bull dogs.

The first half ended 17 to 17, IJ. and W. leading, in the second half the score was tied four times, the period ending with the teams deadlocked at 21 21. D. and W.

Clouscr was the leading scorer of the game, getting four twin pointers. The Armory was crowded for the cruHid battle, Northeast High sending a strong and powerful lunged delegation of rooters that kept things lively throughout the evening. Two great splashes of vivid yellow indicated the presence of two bodies of northeast girls, one group in the west balcony ami the other almost beneath. Kvery point scored by the boys from Twelfth and Perry was the signal for a wila waving of yellow the whole looking like a colorful carnival.

While the teams rested for the extra period the fans kept all citizens within four blocks' awake 'by their yelling. Spectators at one end of the hall could see the cheer leaders at the other end waving their hands and shouting madly through their megaphones, but there was no chance of hearing them. Lots of junior high students will know more about field goals, dribbling and foul shooting today than their lessons.

And, while dispatches emphasize the schedule fight, 'the combat over the draft surely was no Mah Jong game. Nothing much has been published concerning the lineup on the draft. The league heads would have everyone believe that little matter of the Ints relations with the majors was settled with little difficulty.

That seems very Behind the closed doors that barred the way for inquisitive outsiders, a pitched battle mast have been fought, with a group of men who wanted the draft through in spite of the efforts stand alone.

But Dunn's idea of a schedule is out of order, clamor i the Kochestentes.

And many players agree with that idea, saying, with logic, that 1 68 games is too many for a ball tosser seir justice.
