In the hoys7 ^ame Henry wdn,28 to 20. They game started witha rush and was intensely inter-•/e-sting from start to finish. Henry reefneed the game and Marshall of Lacon umpired. The referee gave the hoys a good, clean deal, considering what the girls got, but some dispute arose when the umpire called the fourth personal foul on a Henry man for charging, and leaving him in danger of being put out of the game. For a while it looked as though we were going to have a free-for-all fight as the rooters ran out on the field and seemed willing to enter into- the dispute. The game was delayed 10 or 15 minutes hut the floor was fin-lally cleared and the game eon-' tinued, ending in favor of Hen-j ry. Elmer Gibbs made some star-field goals, and good team work was shown by both teams. Our boys and girls go tomorrow for a retunr game. Everybody go and see Henry receive the walloping i of their lives.P. S.—:We were later told that the girls’ referee didn’t like to call fouls, so we've decided her whittle was a Christmas present and she liked to blow it.
