no dope to write. For exampje. Cen

men wallop Reatrlce and the latter team
cornea to th Couth Side and takea a
hard-fought game. Some dope?
The last week haa been a alow one in
comparison to the week before. What

advantage here and there. Following a

BEATRICE TRIMS SOUTHIES
Magic City Quintet Drops Fast Floor
Fray to Downstate Team,
Sixteen to Eleven. ......
NIXON INJURES HIS KNEE
Reatrlce. 16; South High. 11.
Five points separated South High from
victory Isst evening st the close of tha
game with Beatrice. Coach Jones tall
youths from downstate covered the floor
with wonderfttl speed and nourishing an
early lead played the Packers to a stand
still in the last half, winning the game
by a score of 1 to 11. .
Probably because Captain Nixon, star
renter and captain of the Bouth High
team, was compelled to leave the game
early In the second half because of an
Injured knee, the game waa lost for the
local team. The South High students
played lings around their opponents in
almost every department or the game,
but were forced to swallow their pride
nd accept a beating when victory seemed
within reach.
