BASKET BALL
K.U. SCORES A DOUBLE VICTORY OVER THE CADETS - SCORE WERE 22 TO 1 AND 9 TO 6
The Kentucky University basket ball players won a double victory Saturday night over the State College squad, the Crimson first and second teams winning by scores of 22 to 1 and 9 to 6 respectively.
The games were played in the K.U. gymnasium and were replete with fouls and loose playing. The first teams met first and the game between the second teams followed. The Blue and White varsity team showed a decided falling off from the form displayed in previous contests and lacked speed and team work. One fact that made goal throwing for them difficult was the arrangement of the baskets, which were placed differently from those in their own gymnasium.
The Crimsons, on the other hand, put up a better game than they have heretofore shown at any time this season. Their team work was excellent and the goal throwing of Wallace was very accurate. Captain Hayden was kept out of the game by an injury and Harbison, who took his place, played a great game. The score at the end of the first half was 8 to 1.
The State College second team displayed better team work than the Crimsons, but the latter out-weighed them. The score at the end of the first half was 7 to 0 in favor of K.U.

K.U. TEAM WON
CADETS NARROWLY ESCAPED A SHUT OUT - CRIMSON SECOND TEAM ALSO VICTORIOUS
In their second of a series of games, the Kentucky University basket ball team took the cadets into camp last night in the K.U. gymnasium by the score of 22 to 1.
Only once were the cadets allowed to basket a ball and that was the result of a foul play. Eleven field goals, without a single one from a foul, made by the Crimsons, makes a new record in basket balldom. Every point they scored was earned and made from a scrimmage. "Big" Wallace probably deserves more credit for the Crimson victory than any other member of that aggregation, he basketing eight of the elevent made. Barger, Harbison and Campbell each succeeded in filling a net and played exceptionally good games.
Since their last game, which resulted in a victory for the cadets by the score of 30 to 29, the Crimsons have improved. Harbison, a new man in the make-up, played a star game. He took the place of Hayden, who was unable to participate on account of lameness. The game was regarded as being one of the cleanest, officially, ever seen in Lexington.
After the big game, the second teams played a match game, and the Crimsons won this by the score of 9 to 6. The game was very exciting all the way through.
