THE O’NEILL CAGERS
DEFEAT EWING QUINT
The Ewing basket shooters went
down in defeat at the high school gym
nasium last Friday evening before the
O’Neill fast high school team. The
Ewing team is composed of extra
large athletic fellows but their weight
seemed to be of no particular benefit to
them when pitted against the skill and
ingenuity of the locals. The visitors
failed to score in the last half. The
score was Ewing, 15; O’Neill, 42.
The Ewing “kids” were more suc
cessful as they defeated the St. Mary’s
Academy lads 15 to 5 in the prelimi
nary event.

O’NEILL WOMAN’-S CLUB.
Department of Music.
The Music Department of the Wo
man’s Club held their regular meeting
at the Assembly Room of St. Mary’s
Academy last Friday afternoon at
3:30. The theme of the afternoon was
American Indian Music, and the sub
ject was most successfully discussed
in a carefully written paper by Miss
Anna O’Donnell. Many of us know
practically nothing of American In
dian Music, or what original Indian
Melodies have been handed down to us
by different Indian Tribes, but Miss
O’Donnell handled her subject so well
that the audience felt much enlight
ened, as well as surprised by the in
formation gleaned therefrom.
The following program was carried
out in full, and was greatly enjoyed by
those present.
