The local qalnt de feated the Youngsvllle tossers in a very one-sided game of basket ball here yesterday, the final score being 34 to 2. Altho two of Bunn's best reg ular players were absent and two subs had to be used It was an easy victory for them. The margin dt the score does not show the difference In the teams as the visitors seemed to play |n "hard luclt" throughout the game, altho a great Improvement was seen In the visitors team since our last game with them. The outstanding feature of the game was the playing of Seymore and White for the home team tpho piled up 16 and 12 point* respectively, for their team.
