berry Forest to gain a decisive 24 to 5 victory today, for the second Bishop cage victory over the Tigers in as many contests this year. The
V. E. S. squad showed that they didn't have to be in their own "chalk-box" to score a victory, and
looked better on the large floor than they did at home. The game fea- tured the close guarding, by both teams, which always seems to dog
