In the cas e of the seniors, New Trier sank Proviso by the same score- as Deerfield, 43 to 16. The New Trier juniors won at Proviso, 43 to 10, just. one point, mùre decisiWey than at Highland Park. Juniors Aid Cause Two boys front the junior division helped th e senior team win its sec>- tion of the mieet last Friday., Bill Beebe was used in the same events as in the Deerfield ineet. the 100-yvard back stroke and. the niedley relay. let took first ini the back stroke event, as he did the prévious. week, an(l the. ni edley relay team also won its event.
