Moore Bottom fleft to right!-Kocherhnns, Leedom, Showalter, Gurness INTRA-MUR-AL TOURNAMENT The annual Intra-lVIural tournament of the L. H. S. was held January 6, 7, 8. The junior high-freshmen class wonby defeating the mighty seniors by the score of 12-ll after an extra three minutes of playing. The tournament started 'with the seniors defeating the sophomores 10 to 0. The following game, in which the junior high defeated the juniors was the best game of the tournament, as the teams were fresh and had a fighting spirit. Playing for third and fourth places respectively, the sophomores beat the juniors in a fast game ending 12-9. The girls' tournament played at the same time was equally interesting, showing that the girls can make some noise when it comes to athletics. The first game between the freshmen and junior-senior Qcombinedj teams ended 4-2 in favor of the latter. Next the sophomores took the junior high over with the score of 28-0. The freshmen girls defeated the sophomores to the score of ll-12. The last game between the senior-junior and sophomore teams ended with the former defeating the latter by the score of 6-1. 9 munnnmnnu u an 1uunnmnunminnnuummunninnnununmnuunnunuunnnnmn2i'm-nnnnuununummmmummmunmmmnnununuuunnnnunmmunmnuunnnm - -, .... - -.

The game was Lovell's 20 to Powell's 1-1. ' The score 2-1-21 between Basin and Lovell was a surprise to the Lovell basketball fans. They thought for a while that Lovell was going down to defeat, but at last the -Lovellites proudly scrambled to the top end of the score. The dark spot in Lovell's basketball career of 1927 was the decisive defeat ad- ministered at Manderson to the score of 29-9. The tall lanky Manderson boys were too much for the Bulldogs, and we were taken over very easily. The low ceiling and the hall were the best explanations given for the defeat. The second game with Basin was a great deal different from the first one. It was 1-1-10 the first half, and after the boys got hot the ball took a series of trips to the basket. The final score was 32-18 in Lovell's favor. The next day the boys went to Greybull and that night had a close call, as the score was 19-20 in our favor. , The game between Lovell and W'orland at Lovell was a treat for tired eyes. The Lovell boys played a good game of ball. The first half we played all around them but were unable to connect with the basket often enough. The half ended 11-18 in favor of VVorland. The second half VVorland made two foul throws, while Lovell made seven points, bringing the score 18-20 in favor of VVorland. In our next game with Manderson it was an entirely different kind of story. Marple, the all-state center, was held without a field goal by Captain Asay. The score was close-8-5 in Manderson's favor. ' The second Powell game played at Lovell was easy for Lovell, as the 12-4 score indicates. The next game with Deaver had the desired effect on the Lovell fans, as we beat them 22-10. Our game at Thermopolis was a very good one. Although we did get defeated by a score of 18-15, we felt that it was no disgrace. The second game with Worland, at NVorland, was an interesting one. The Lovell boys outplayed them very easily in the first half, but in the second, Kelly's menu came back doubly-strong and won by the score of 16-13. The second game with Greybull on the home floor was different also as the Lovell boys were far ahead throughout the game, and when the final whistle blew, the score in our favor was 17-9. The game at Cody was disastrous, as the floor was very small, and the boys were unable to get started. The game ended 22-11 in Cody's behalf, The contest with Thermopolis at Lovell was a humdinger. The Lovell boys got out ahead with a score of 17-1-I-. The Hot Springs boys found it hard to score at Lovell and went down to a decisive defeat. The game' between Lovell and its old-time enemy, Cowley, was a fast game all the time, but Lovell with its fast playing and better shooting ability, defeated the little Cowleyites 18-10. The second time Lovell played Byron was a close contest, the Lovell boys coming out on top with the score ll-10. The last game against Cody was exciting. The Cody boys could not put it over Lovell on our court even if Q. Tartar was out of center. The score was 24-17. This ended the season's twenty games, with Lovell' third in percentage won in the Basin. W. S.

The first and second day were of very little importance as they witnessed com- mon matches, some uneven and others close. The third day the semi-finals to decide whether Cody or Cowley would be given fourth or sixth places, gave Cody the coveted fourth place by the easy score of 21-7. Greybull defeated Riverton by 3 points, 14-11, that day. - The finals played at night were between Lovell and Thermopolis for third and fifth places, and 1VIanderson and VVorIand for first and second. The Lovell-Then mopolis game was fast throughout, the score at the end of the half being 8-8. Ther- mopolis finally forged ahead in the last half, and the gamerended 18-12 in their favor. The Manderson-WVorland game was by far the best in the tournament. The lvlanderson quintette got the lead in the first half, and although the Wor- land boys fought hard, they were unable to overtake them. The score at the whistle was 21-19 in favor of Manderson. Afterithis game the awards were made by G. V. Cutler, tournament official, lVIanderson receiving the silver loving cup and the new basketball which was used in the final game. Webb Wortham of Worland received a sweater for being high- point man of the tournament, and Cal Owens of Thermopolis received a loving cup for showing up as the best al1-around athlete in the tournament. The tournament was played under a new system, cutting down on the number of games also giving the weaker teams a chance to play and earn a place.
