versus Wesley, Band music, warm
room, hot game. Now we do not
know just what it was nor why, but
something in the whole get-up caused
the game to be decided in favor of
our boys and thus they demonstrated
that they coul win. We heard some-
one say that the band scared Wesley
! so bad they could not play but won’t
' vouch for that.
The game was a fast one from
start to finish. The playing was bril-
liant and the score was so even all
during the game and at the close of
the second half even it was not yet de-
cided. The score at the end of
first haif was a few points in
