SPORTS I I It !•' V I» PMII } Take Friday Night Game 48-A 33—Next Night Even Miles Loss By Beating Fromberg Laurel high school, traveling under the usual full head of steam, downed the Worden team from the Project, 48 to 33, Friday night. The Locomotives, just like a Mallet, started slowly and then after work ing up steam were never headed. Laurel was leading at the end of the first, 18 to 8, and at the half by a score of 23 to 12. After the intermission the subs took over and the boys slowed down a little, but they still held a 32 to 24 advantage when the final period started. The game in the final quarter resembled the last football game between the two teams with the whistle-tooters earning their money. In a preliminary game the Laurel B squad romped to a 34 to 12 vic tory over the Project reserves.
