LATTER DAY SAINTS WIN From Thursday's Dally The basketball team representing the Letter Day Saints church of Omaha was the opponent here last night of the local "town" team, and aside from the saintly qualities of the visitors they were a good fast team that had little trouble in smothering the array of vanished stars by the score of 28 to 15. The visitors took a decided lead from the opening tipoff and the lo cals lagged at all stages of the game. The local team was apparently suf fering from lack of practice and team work, while the visitors were clear to be seen had been playing with each other for some time as their plays were more accurate. For the locals Hubert Dew was the best both in his shooting and the floor work.
