It had to happen some time. The powerful Mountaineers
of the Infantry league finally lost their first game in the
divisional league play of the Timber Wolf Division, to the
second-place Gulls.
The score was 31-28, after a rip-roaring, dramatic melee
in which the score was tied up four times during the last
two minute* of play. Then the Gulls’ pace-setting dynamo,
Pvt. Polivechek, who earned 14 points, sank two in Quick
succession and the “Hillmen” had lost their first battle in
nine stm
