Saline at Belleville
By Luther Dicks
Friday night, January 18, the
High school boys went -abroad to encounter the Belleville team. When
the first team game started it was
a very good! resemblance of a first-
class football tussle. It was very
plain that it was to be a free-for-all;
the team that could stand the most
kicking and! knocking was to win. It
was a case of one man getting the
ball and the rest of the team ramming interference. The referee had
no idea of calling any fouls from, the
start to the finish of the contest. Our
boys, not being used to that type of
basketball 'dropped-the game, which
was not any credit to win or _p>lay in,
the score beingi, "Saline 15-, Belleville
315.
The reserves alsti lost, 23 to 9, in a
'game much worse than the first.
Kenneth Volz, guard on the second
team, suffered when Belleville men
piled upon him after he fell.
Hintz   Starred   for   Lenawee   Group,
Pennington and Shurtz for
