Page- Two PULLMAN HIGH SCHOOL PULLMAN,' DRUBS COLFAX Coach Gai6er's hoopsters displayed better teamwork and basket shoot ing and took Colfax into camp, 29 --9, in Bohler gym last Friday. The game closed the basket ball season for Pullman high school. The local quintet had just got back from the tournament aud the men were pretty stale. The game started rather slowly, with Gannon dropping in a long one. Little scor ing was done by either team in the first half, because both teams were somewhat lost on the large floor. The visitors were held to one lone field goal this first half, while the local quintet dropped in five field goals and made one free throw, which made the score 11-2 in our favor at the half way point. The second half was faster, with the basket being located more ac curately by the local bunch. Each side made four fouls this half and the visitors tried vainly to score but could not work the ball past our defense. McKarcher led the scor ing for the local team, making a to tal of eight field goals. This was the last game that Vosburg and Mc- Karcher will play for Pullman high school. Colfax was again held to one field goal in this hall. The game ended 29-9. The lineup and score: Pullman(29 » Colfax(9) Gannon P.... B. Hubbard McKarcher F. Kromm Hammond c . i.,>, McCully t; Code!
