In what was undoubtedly the roughest and probably the fastest game of boys' basket ball ever played in our city, the boys from the Fort Shaw Indian School defeated the boys of H. H. 8. by a close sooreof 13 toll. The two points which were needed to tie the score could have been made by a goal from the field In the last minute of play, but all the ginger which our team put into play in that minute could not land tbe ball in the . net and the game was lost. Our team deserves a great deal of credit for the pluck and endurance which they exhibited, while the Indians, too, deserve great credit for their skill at throwing baskets. The Indian braves were much taller and heavier than our team and bad evidently been well coached. The Nugget Helena, Montana.
