Local Teeasa Score Victories, Ex perience and Coaching Overcome Fear of Friday, the Thirteenth. Friday, the thirteenth, was a lucky day for both Beaverton teams, when they defeated Scappoose by large scores. The girls won 33 to 4 and boys 38-13. The Beaverton girls' team was heav ier and faster than that of Scappoose. Stars were Crete Gray, Velma Davies and Ruth Jones. The rest played: Itheir unusually good game. Weight, experience and an almost impregnable five-man defense on the part of Beaverton s boys spelled de feat for Scappoae?. Thcfirst half dragged and the score was Beaver ton 13, Scappoose 6, but in the second half the way our fellows went after the ball was a wonder. It seemed that they were trying to equal that score of last year when Beaverton won 62 to 8. Wilson replaced Boring at forward and in lass than ten min utes scored 4 field baskets. Merrill was high point man with sixteen, in cluding four points from free throws. Coach Mather can well be proud of the showing the team made and we expect much of them in coming games.
