The preliminary game was played be tween the famous Etna Mills, Calif., girls team, which has stood unde feated for the past two years, until Friday night when the local hlnh school girls beat them by a score of 37 to 29. The result of the game Saturday night was much doner and the game much harder fought than the previous evening, the fiuul score standing 22 to 18 in favor of the locals. At the end of the first half the score was 9 to S in favor of Ash land quintet, and many times during the last halt the game was very much In doubt. The visitors gained the lead at one time, and things looked dark for the locals, but by good team work they pulled out and were In the lead before the final whistle. The second game of the evening was between the Talent high school and the second team of the local high school. The Talent quintet came to Ashland with the notion of tak ing away the large end of the score, having beaten the Medford all-star team Friday night by a scoro of 25 to 16. But they were sadly mis taken In their ability to cope with the local team. It must be said for the Talent team that they were not altogether slow, for the game was hard-fought from sturt to finish, and they gave the local boys something worth working for. They were not beaten until the sound of the time keeper's whistle, when the score of 25 to 16 in favor of the locals had been- posted. Quite u few fouls were committed, hut the game was un ex ample of good, scientific basketball, and both teams only need a slight bit of polishing to be able to cope with the best teams In the state and make a creditable showing.
