After that. the scoring continued in fast order. The Donnellson girls sueeeeded in making several baskets, but the ball was in Kahoka's possession most of the time. It can be said to the eredit. of the girls, that no 0119 starred. Good tear' work was the feature of the game. Fl'lIlIl Shepard to McKee. from McKee to Rauscher, irom Ruth to Ball, and from Ball to Edna, in short, snappy passes, the ball went up the eourt. lf Edna was covered, she passed to Mabel and the basket was made or viee versa, team work predo'minating always over individuality. This is the third straight winning game for the girls. Donnellson Girls Whip K. H. S. O11 the same night, Mareh 7. the K. H. girls went down in defeat. An entirely new game was played in whieh five players we1'e used and boys' 1'ules prevailed. The Donnell- son girls were familiar with this style of play and as K. H. S. was not it proved an easy victory for tl1e1n. However, it may be said to the credit of the girls that they never gave up until the final whistle blew. Nevertheless, the girls are not boys. Kayhoka Girls Play La. Plata The girls' basket ball team agai11 showed their ability when they defeated the fast LaI'lata team on the home floor Friday night by the close seore of 151-20. Kahoka took the lead in the opening half when the sturdy little Daggs sc-ored from the free goal line. Mereer. star forward for Lalllata, put l1er team in the lead a few min- utes later when she seored from the field. Daggs and Hanan eaeb got another free goal but Mercer scored two more fieldbaskets before the half ended. This put the visitors three points ahead at the end of the half. The tremendous applause and encouragement from the spectators during the game and between halves sent the girls baek with their fighting blood up. McKee and Shepard played a fighting gaxne at guard while Ilauseher and Ball at center and Daggs and Hanan at forward proved disastrous for the visitors. Daggs started the seoriug the set-ond half when she sank one from the side line. Hanan played a star game, fighting from start to finish. BOYS' GAMES Gorin at Gorin Kahoka, 43. Gorin, 19. Kahoka High School won its first game of the outdool' season from Gorin High Sehool last Friday. Septemberr 22, by a fair margin. However. the game was at no time a walk-away for Kahoka. Gorin played hard till the end and made Kahofka earn every score. Bennett. Woodruff and Yandolah played a good game on offense and missed but few ehanees to sc-ore. Blum and Stump worked well together, being given good support by their team mates. They did some fine- guarding and gave Gorin but few open shots for the basket. On the whole the team worked well together. They deserve much credit for the clean game they played. Mc-Clues substituted for Bennett in the fourth quarter. laneastcr at Kahnka Kahoka lost t.o Lancaster Friday, September 29. Lancaster at Lancaster Un Friday, Oetober 11, the K. H. S. basket ball team lost to Lam-aster in a very fast and interesting game at Lancaster. The Kahoka boys were outelassed in weight but made up for this handicap in team wo1'k and goal shooting. The last ten minutes of the game were very close and fast. The sc-ore was either tied or not more than one point in different-e. XVith half a minute to play and Kahoka leading the Lancaster boys scored a field goal winning the game. Downing at Downing The boys' game at Downing, October 20, started with several fast goals by XVoodruff and Vandolah before Downing could get into ac-tion. Downing, seemingly slow, obtained only one point during the first half. By playing

S Q 4 Q 3 ' 1 Q1 KW La Grange College at La Grange The fast Kahoka High School team took another scalp last Friday wl1en they trimmed La Grange College 42-8. The game was a hard fight all the way. La Grange used a new system of defense which consisted of piling four men o11 their opponents when they had the ball. However, Kahoka, by speed a11d strategy, ran the score up to 42 points. The college boys made 3 field baskets and scored 2 points at foul throwing. Keokuk at Keokuk From Gate City, January 13. Playing the speediest game that has bee11 witnessed here this season, Keokuk and Kahoka battled it out to a fighting finish last night on the local floor. The purple and white finished three baskets ahead of the Missourians and won 251 to 23. The Kahoka team is undoubtedly the best, team that has been Oll the Y floor for some time. The combination of Woodruff, Vandolah and Wilkinson worked the ball time after time to within shooting distance of the basket, and twice during the game Kahoka led Ball's five by a small margin. , Fighting for the lead ill the first quarter, Keokuk was forced to the li1nit during the entire game. Abell proved to be tl1e scoring llltlll for tl1e team, shooting five field goals. Phillips a11d Koch were the other scoring factors for the purple. 011 Kahoka's side XV00tll1lff led his men with five field goals. The sidelines went wild with the nip and tuck play seen on the floor. Neither team i11 the first half could s.1tisfactorily claim to be superior. And but for the unoovered spot.s in their defense Kahoka would have pushed the locals to even a closer contest. As the first half ended tl1e teams panted off the floor with Keokuk leading 13 to 7. Kahoka started with renewed deterlninaticn in tl1e second half and were soon able to tie the score 19 to 19. Then the Show Me boys stepped i11to a point leadl The, .local quintet came back hard. Abell slipped in some pretty baskets, Phillips shot a 11eat one illld again the crowd was puzzled as to who was going to come out ahead. I11 the t.hird quarter Phillips suffered a sprained ankle and Danford was substituted. Meister went in for Udell. With fresh forces in the fray Keokuk kept her lead and at the final whistle was victor by a small margin.

NVildcats knocked the undefeatable VVilliamstown Five off their feet ill the first five minutes of play at the school gylll. last XVednesday night. W'illia1nstown claimed to have the best team i11 the country, having lost but one game tl1is season, that being to Canton High by one point. The game proved to be very rough from the Still't1. Van- Dolah llilll to be taken o11t of the game U11 account of injuries received. Woodruff and Wilkinson played f0l'NV2l1'dS with great accuracy, as well as backing up the defense and doing their share of the rough work. Vanllolah played a spectacular game at center and tl1e team was greatly weakened when he was forced to retire. Bennett and McClain played an airtigllt game at guard, allowing but three field goals in the entire game.
