Dentists Downed in Fast
Contest by Margin of 2
Score 32 to 30
Last Friday evening the Normal
Basketball team scored their third
conference victory in one of the fast
est games ever played on the home
floor. The game was a hair raising
thriller from start to finish, first one
side scoring and then the other. At
no time during the play did one team
have greater than a five point lead
over the other and three times during
the forty minutes the score was tied.
Beck started the fireworks by neatly
placing two counters for the home
boys. From then on until the finish
things happened so fast that the spec
tators had a hard time keeping up
with the procession. The teams were
exceedingly well matched only the
ability of the Normal quintet to
move just a little faster than their
opponents and their superiority in
opening upfor free shots at the
basket won them the game.
Outstanding honors were pretty
equally divided among our five men,
Nelson, converting himself into A
veritable hurricane of passing.shoot
ing and cheeking, made a great con
tribution with his fast floor work.
Beck's accuracy in locating the bas
ket netted ten points for.the winners.
Condit at left forward prevented his
man from registering at all and at
the same time contributed four goals
to the winning cause. McGowan,
Egleston, and Rowe showed up well
at the guard positions, McGowan hold
ing his man down to four points.
Egleston dropped in two goals from
the center of the floor, only one, of
which could be counted, however,
since the ball ,was forced out of
bounds just, prior to his shooting.
Rowe played a fast game and proved
himself an invaluable part of the scor
ing machine.
For the visitors L. Rasier at left
forward and Lawrence at center
showed up exceptionally well, the
former contributing thirteen points
and the latter eleven.
The greatest thrill of., the whole
game came in the last 35 seconds of
play, when the visitors crept up and
tied the score at 30 all! It appeared
as though the game would result in
a tie and an extra period would be
necessary to decide the score. How.
ever with only ten seconds to go
Nelson and Beck executed a three
cornered pass to McGowan, who was
open for a shot, and the ball swisheH
thru the net for the winning goal. .
The game thruout was exceptional
ly fast and considering the cramped
quarters of the Normal's floor not un
usually rough. North Pacific was a
warded 21 free throws at the basket
and converted 8 for points. The
Normal tried 16 free throws and
counted 8. Fourteen personal fouls
were called on Monmouth and thirteen
on the dentists. One man from each
team was barred on personals. Both
teams played hard, fast, sportsman
like ball and but one regrettable in
tident occurred to mar the evening.

Sooner or later the question of a

throw this educational matter into the
lap of the present session.
Some of these circumstances are:
The fact that the need of elementa

institution, the Monmouth normal
school.
The competition of cities some of

OII, LET I S DKKAM NO MORE.
Once upon a time, many years ago
when Mother Nature ruled the earth,
there lived a Ceni who could grant
any dream that the people could pos
sibly have.
In a small town, in a beautiful val
ley a man of average wealth lived
with his family. It wus a very hap
py family, at least so it appeared;
but his children hud no place to play,
that is, a pluce of their very own.
They continually borrowed a place
from the neighbors. Their father
and mother did not realize the need of
their children for a playhouse, until
one night the father had a drculn.
He saw a magnificent building of
stone and mortar in which his chil
dren were playing, and oh! what a
time they were having! Many peo
ple were watching them. They were
enjoying themselves immensely, too.
The father did not understand why
such a strange dream should come to
him. He worried about it so much
that he finally went to the Geni and
asked an explanation.
"Your dream" said the Geni,
"t'.cans that your children need a
place .'. Iheir very own in which to
play their games. Then the neigh
bors need not be bothered with them
in their playhouse."
The children's father, being a good
father, went home and built his chil
dren a playhouse and they lived hap
pily ever after. .
The Geni still lives. His name is
"Vote". The father still, lives. His
name is "Voter". Vote, will give
Voter anything he asks for.
Voters dream! . Then, oh! let us
dream no more. Vote will give Vot
