SUB LEAGUE CHAMPS
Two of the most ° exciting games
ever played in Nevada City was held
in’ Redmen’s Hall Friday night. So
The games started with a rush
the local ‘‘A” teammaking a driving
attack on the Courtland , : squad.
George Hegart’-y,;_erack forward,
played a brilliant game from start
to finish making him the star performer of the game. In the first half
Nevada score stood 29 to 19. At the
third quarter Courtland rallied and
it proved to be the warmest period
of the game. The local boys lost
some points but held up with one
point in their favor at the end of
the quarter.The local boys were hard pressed
in the final and came _ strongly to
the fore winning the: game by a
score of 28 to 32.
T'e B’*team waged an offensive
battle from the first and the Courtland team were doomed from the
first. The local nimble footed five
earried the ball into enemy territory
and shot baskets from any anglé with
heavy guarding from the other side.
In the first quarter the score stood
29 40 3. in favor of the local boys.
“B”’ squad substitutes carried on the
same offensive tactics and proved to
be nearly as good as the first string-~
ers. When the final score was counted they stood 50 to 12 in favor of
our proud blue and gold five. Charley Hing, ‘‘B’ center was a whirlwind of action and displayed fine
control piling up twenty points for
the locals.
Through their double winning last
night the Nevada City lads have
made another advance toward the Inter-League championship.
The hardest fought battle will be
waged next Friday night when Auburn plays the local “A”, “B” and
“C”’ teams.
The blue and gold proved last Friday night that they were the winners
of the Sierra. Foothill sub-league
championship.
The boys have defetted Elk Grove,
Courtland, and Grass Valley and now
their chief worry will come next Saturday with the teams from the Auburn high school. Nevada City is entitled to title bouts with Auburn for
the championship Inter-league. It is
almost certain the local boys will win

Referee McKibben of Sacramento
rendered decisions in a fair. and
square manner. The stormy weather
kept the attendance down Friday
night, but it is hoped that Saturday's
game will be well attended when
fee
the most thrilling game of the season is scheduled to be played.
Mrs. Emma Coombs, formerly of
Truckee, passed away ,at. the county
