We drew Newman for our first game and defeated them in a rather thrilling game, 32 to 21. Our second game was with Onarga. We lost this game in a hard fought battle, 20 to 19. This eliminated us from further games in this tourney. WHIPPET SIX TOURNEY In the second annual Whippet Six Tourney we took second place. We were defeated, 28 to 23, in the final game by Loda. Our first game was with Milford. The maroons went hot in this game and won, 33 to 11. Our next game was with Buckley, whom we defeated in the semi-finals by the score of 31 to 11. In the finals We met our Waterloo, for, after having a 19 to 12 lead at the half, Cissna was defeated by the fast Loda five, 28 to 23. COUNTY TOURNEY This year marked the third time Cissna Park has gone into the finals of the County Meet. Our first game was with Watseka. After a very slow start, we easily defeated them, 33 to 14. In the quarter-finals Donovan gave us a stiff fight, but we finally beat them, 33 to 29. In the semi-finals we again met Buckley, and again we downed them, this time 26 to 17. By this victory we won the right to meet Onarga in the finals. For three quar- ters We led them and with about four minutes to play were leading, 16 to 10. Then something happened. Onarga began to make some long shots, and before We knew it, the game was over, and Onarga had won the County Championship by the score of 20 to 16.
