visitors were better than usual. The first half of the fracas was obviously in favor of them. During the last few minutes of the game, however, the Lumberjacks broke their bonds and with some brilliant passing and extraordinary basket caging by Heckethorne, the game ended in victory for our boys with a score of 18 to 16. The Lumberjacks won from Williams on January 25 with a score of 25 to 8. Britt's boys were fast on the floor and good at passing, but they were unable to find the basket. Our boys were in good condition and had no trouble in downing the weaker aggregation from the neighboring city. February first brought the strong Prescott quintet to bat- tle the sturdy Lumberjacks. Both teams fought their best fight as the two teams always do when matched. However, the visitors, with what seemed to be luck more than anything else, forged to the front in the last half of the final quarter, and came out on top with a score of 25-22. The unbeaten Clarkdale five invaded Normal territory two days after the Ides of Februarius, to test their strength and prowess against the Lumberjacks. Unfortunately for them they had met their match. The White and Gold cagers began with a bang and ended the same way on the peak of the score, 29 to 20. The morning following the Clarkdale game the team left for a trip to the valley. The first game was played with the local high school at Camp Verde. In the first game of the trip our boys did very well, carrying away the affair by a score of 19 to 25. The following day they Went to Jerome, where they had a chance to go down in one of the large copper mines, and to visit the surrounding country. On Monday, the 18th, the game with Jerome high was played, and here again our boys were the victors. However, this team was somewhat faster than the Camp Verde five and held the visitors to the score of 20 to 22. On Tuesday they invaded Badger territory and the game that ensued was a regular rough and tumble. When the Lumberjacks left the floor the score stood 17 to 3 against them. The Prescott team was the hardest quintet that the Normal competed with during the whole season, and this is the first year that the Badgers have succeeded in taking our golden scalp. The team continued its journey to Phoenix where the Junior College meet was to be held on Friday and Saturday. The Lumberjacks had the bad luck to draw the strongest team on the first day and were given a good drubbing by the Gila A-cademy. The score, 58 to 14, was the highest score that any team ran up against our five this season and we have vowed not to let such a thing happen again. Saturday our boys played the Phoenix Junior College, but here again they could not succeed in getting the best of their opponents. They were tired out with the long trip and were in no condition to oppose such a strong team at this time in the season. The final score of the season was 36 to 16 against us. They arrived home Sunday afternoon after an all day's travel overland. One Hundred Six l 1l
