Both teams fought a hard game and the winners could not have possibly been picked at any time during the game so closely were the twd teams matched. The locals tried hard to bring home victory and their friends did every-, thing in their power to assist them by their cheering, but victory was not to be for us this time and consequently the visitors were returned the victors. Altho defeated the fans were treated to. some fast, snappy basket ball and every minute of play was filled with action and excitement, thus keeping everyone concerned wide awake during the forty minutes of strenuous endeavor on the part of the fleety athletes. , McHenry will go to Harvard tomorrow (Friday) evening, where they hope to be able to turn the tables on their worthy opponents.
