The Venetian Zflazkvi ilall The season opened with prospects very bright for us. VVe first traveled to Madison to play the Madison seconds. We were all full of pep and wanted to play a hard game of basket ball. This was November 8, and the basket ball season had just started. We played a fast game and so did the oppos- ing team and the score ended in a tie 15-15. On November 19, Madison came here and we were all ambitious to de- feat them, but after a hard-fought, fast game they defeated us 16-8. This did not take the pep out of us because we felt that we still had victories, to to be added. Then there came our first victory when New Baden traveled here just to be defeated on December 14, This was a very interesting game because we both fought hard and kept the score near a tie all through the game. The score ended up to be 23-17 in our favor. just after the Christmas holidays we traveled to New Baden. VVe were all feeling fine because of the fine time we had during the vacation days and we were sure of a victory. But the tables turned and after a hard-fought battle came home defeated 15-8. On january 25th the Troy High School came here. There was a slow game for the first two quarters because we thought they would be easy. The score stayed in their favor most of the time but we fought hard. The last two quarters we played our best, but they had the jinx on us, and the score when the game ended, was 10-8 in favor of Troy. Un February first Livingston came here. They were a bunch of big, husky, strong fellows, and we saw a hard battle before us. This was a rough and tumble game. We played our best and gave them all we had but they defeated us by a score of 19-11. On February 15 we traveled to Troy with a bunch of rooters along with us. We got a little encouragement with the rooters along but it was all in vain. We went down to defeat once more by a margin of four points, 10-6. The season was now coming to a close and we were all tired playing basket ball. We then traveled to Livingston on january 22nd, with the blig- gest crowd of rooters we ever had and played the hardest battle of the sea- son, but we could not win because of the large gym and heavy oppotneuts, The score ended up 29-8 in favor of the opposing team, but we traveled home as a happy bunch of sports to close the season. , Willianl Water'5, 34
