to many victories this year. This was

Smith this year, the locals having
ilefeated them at Charlotte n few
weeks ago.
Many times during the game the

is much befuddled as the spectators,
rhe keen rivalry existing between the
two teams could he easily seen , In
the hard fight which both put up.
It could be also felt In the atmosphere
as fans cheered for their

Tenkins, who played a cool defensive
uid offensive game for their team.
