The Athens High school defsated
the cadet five of the Georgia Military

the High school has played this year
and no doubt It applies to G. M. C.
as well. The High school ted G. M.
C. all the way and only once waa
the cadets as close aa three points to
the lead that the local boys had set.
Fouls were very numerous on both
sides, but no one man received enough
to be eliminated from further partici
pation.
The passing of both teams was
about even, with the cadets winning
the honors on guarding. Clever guard
ing by the G. M. C. squad robbed the
High schcol of more points than was
comfortable at times. The guarding
of the locals was rather loose at In
tervals, and shots by the opposition
were easy.
G. M. C. was defeated, but not un
til the whistle had Mowed did she
know it. The cadets put up a won
derful exhibition and steady playing

Moore and Ingram, at forwards, scor

from his far corner and scoring two
points.

scored eight pointers for the locals.

Is destined to play a wonderful part
In bringing together the men of all

During the period of the existence
of the Athens clnb, the people of this
