LOCALS WIN FROM
WELLINGTON TEAMS
AMHERST, TAKING LEAD IN SCORING EARLY IN GAME, KEPT
UP THE PAST WORK
The Amherst high school cage
teams took two games from ths Wellington High outfits at Wellington last
Friday evening In two Interesting contests, the hoys winning hy a score of
30-18 and the girls winning hy a score
of 7-6. Both contests were Interesting, especially tbe girls' game, which
was close thronghot. The boys hsd
little difficulty tn overcoming their
opponents by getting a good start snd
finishing up in like form.
The Iocs) girls started out strong
and led the scoring throughout ths entire game. The first qusrter was close
but the seoond qusrter wss the scene
of constant scoring for the locals.
They, however, slowed down In the
laat qusrter snd the Wellington girls
threatened to overcome the local's
lead. For the last two mlautes of plsy
the score stood 7-6 and the Amherst
team was fsst weakening. They, however, menaced to keep their opponents
from scoring In that period.
The boys had little difficulty In
trimming the Wellington boys, although their opponents put up a stiff
battle In the fir it qusrter. Amherst,
however, got onto their feet in the
second quarter and run up a several-
point lesd. Wellington scored only
one field goal In the first half, the remainder of their points being made
by fouls. During the first hair the
Amherst lads playsd a five-man defense snd shot a basket which had a
beam in front ot It. With the change
of baskets in the last halt the locals
msde more headway and scored several points.
L>. Neumeister was the big scorer
for the locals, making seven field gosls
and four fouls. T. Neumeister scored
thi te field goals, Monger two and Eln-
wacttter on*.
The referee was close In his decisions and called fifteen fouls on the
locals, seven of which were made by
the Wellington foul eager.
