the game, a foul, and Edwards fol- lowed soon after with another. Af-
ter a V. E. S. failure to make a foul Ebert made another for IV. and L., bringing their total to three, while V. E. S. had not scored.
Second Quarter
Ebert started this quarter with a field goal and Goldsmith, not to be outdone, followed close on his heels
with another. Groop shot two field goals in quick succession and Goldy made a foul, the half ending 9-3 in W. and L.'s favor.
Third Quarter
Edwards failed to make a foul.
Loffler shot a foul scoring V. E. S.'s fourth point. George followed in Loffler's tracks with another foul. Ebert made a field goal and followed with another. Lawdon shot another field goal for W. and L., and Ed- wards followed suit with Washing- ton and Lee's seventh field goal.
Lawdon closed the quarter with a pretty field goal from the right of the basket.
Fourth Quarter
Ebert started the fourth quarter as he had the third-with a field goal. Goldsmith made our second field goal. Ebert made a foul and Y oung soon after made a goal. "Pinky" checked up a field goal, and after Ebert had made a foul shot, Pinkerton added our fourth and last
goal. Line-up:
