18-11 Victory LYNCHBURG, VA., Jan. 16.-In its
first venture on the Armory floor,
the Midget basketball -team was
beaten by Guggenheimer's 18-11 here today.
Things looked entirely in favor
of the Bishops at the beginning of the game as the teamwork was
fairly smooth in contrast to the nervous one-man Guggenheimer's
team. However, they settled down quickly and before the end of the
quarter T yree had sunk three field oals.
