It needed but a momentary glance to
learn that the local players were of
the same caliber as the visitors. For
several minutes the game progressed
with honors even, but Frances Massee
brought the crowd to Its feet with a
pretty and clean goal from the field.
With a small lead against them, Pen
dleton took a noticeable brace, and
ere long had a field goal, too. The
home players camped on the trail of
each player, for to lose sight of them
a moment, meant a goal. This oc
curred once In the first half, when a
player broke loose. The first half
ended -3 all.
Kurly In the second half Pendleton
scored another field goal and the
wore stood 4 to 2. Spectators' grew
nnYtniii as minutes passed and no
change was made on the score sheet.
Huttle McMurray administered a
lightning shock to the crowd by
throwing a thrilling goal from the
side lines. This tied the score and
thus the game ended, in playing off
the tie Pendleton made a clean throw
making the score 6 to 4.

Every minute of the game was full of
fouls; they simply abounded In pro

however. Frances Massee soon tired
her guard by heady and fast foot
work. Both forwards were guarded
so closely that opportunities to throw
goal were extremely few. Ruby Thei

strong player of the visitors. Her
strength and grit saved many goals.
With more experience on the floor
she gives promise of making as fast

Floy Maxsee,. the team captain,
played a faultless game throughout,

nothing has been found which was for
