The Richmond first and second basket ball teams were the opponents for the two local teams at the city hall last Friday evening. A good crowd turned out to see the sport and ail went home more than satisfied with what they had seen. The first teams opened the evening's entertainment at 8:80 p. m. Mchenry won the toss and chose the east basket as their goal. It was with tbe'greatettt delight that the McHenry rooters sat and watched the excellent work of thu locals, tbeir hrst basket throw being made in less than one minute after the whistle sounded to call the game. Alt er this, it was all Mct»enry, Richmond being no matcn whatever for our boy*. The team work of McHenry was almost perfect, while their opponents showed few signB of playing together. Alt IK; the teams were not evenly enough matched to make the game interesting, the exceptionally good work of the highs was warmly applauded during the entire contest. The score sheet when summed up at the finish of the second inning showed 88 points for Mc Henry, while Richmond counted but 4. The locals are improving with every game and it is expected tbat Mcdenry followers of the spof t will be given an opportunity to witness some exception ally good contests during the coming season. Tomorrow (Friday) evening McHenry goes to Cary, where they meet the locals in the first of a series of three games. It is hoped that a good crowd of rooters will accompany the team to that place and cheer them on to victory. The contest between the two second teams was a great deal more exciting, as the score will indicate. The teams were very evenly matched and the gaim was not won until the last basket was thrown. When time 'was called at the end of the second half, the score was a tie, 6 to 6. In case of a tie the winners are decided by having the game resumed until two points are made by either team and in this instance Mcfienry proved to be the luckier, securing the necessary points after their opponents had thrown a free goal, thus making the score 8 to 7. After the games the t»ams repaired to the home of F. L. McOmber. wher« lunch was served and a few social hour* were sjgenfe " •" .TWO DAYS' SHOOT at In. Geo. NelfttfttafW To and Sundajr. .
