The ladies of the Dyatona High School Basketball team got another surprise of their young lives at the arcade in Daytona last Friday night. They were trounced for the second time, this time to the tune of 20 to 7 by the fast academy team. The contest was far from being a close one, Daytona making only one field basket. The Stetson girls took the Daytona girls by storm by making their first basket in the first few seconds of play. When the dejected Daytonians walked off the floor at the conclusion of the last half, there was not the remotest shimmer of an J alibi, to be discovered even with! a telescope. They had been defeated by a team that played better basketball from start to finish. They were outplayed in keeping the ball in their territory surpassed in guarding and had failed abjectly in shooting baskets. While it is true that Daytona played a scrappy game, they only kept the score from advancing by putting new girls in play in the last half. Team work on the floor predominated with the Stetson girls and it would be needless to say that the Stetson athletics showed thorough training The final score was 20 to 7. Stetson.

The Varsity met its first real tough proposition last Friday night when it met the Orlando basket ball team. The game was played at the Armory in Orlando, and resulted as per usual in a Stetson victory. Quite a number of royal Stetsonites accompanied the team. The Collegiate found it impossible to secure the authentic scores of the games and also the Orlando line up. However, we can give a description of the game in general. When the teams took the floor the contrast between the teams was appalling. The spectators had to look carefully to see the Stetson team; not that our fellows were so small, but because the Orlando aggregation was so large. After seeing the Orlando teams we will know hereafter where to look for "white hopes" if they are ever again needed. When the whistle blew the whole situation changed. You couldn't s^ej^Jthi^geJ^iE^fj^ 'uns. There seemed to be a regiment of them. The Orlando boys put up a splendid fight but seemed dazed with the accurate passing and consistent guarding. They were outclassed from start to finish and never once succeeded in making a successful stand against the Varsity. There was only one unpleasant situation thru out the game, "Dutch" and the Orlando center had a little "set to", and the Orlando player was put out of the game. "Dutch" interceeded and his royal highness, the referee, allowed him to come back. The score was Stetson 26 and Orlando 7. Stetson. Forwards—Minter and Hodgden. Center—Miller. Guards—O'Connell and Walker. Substitutes: Forwards—Hollander for Walker. Ref eree—Fenno. Time Keeper—Junkin. o STETSON VS, NEW SMYRNA Stetson added to its string of victories by defeating New Smyrna Saturday night. The game was too one sided to be interesting. The first half ended with a score of 12 to 2 and the second half was simply a walk-a-way 26 to 0. New Smyrna didn't have a chance to win. However, they deserve credit for putting up a good scrap all thru the game. The school team played its usual defensive game. New Smyrna was unable to shoot a field goal. Stetson has a rather enviable record so far this season, onlyr three field goals have been scored against them in four games. The line up for Stetson was as follows, forwards Hogden and Minter; Center, Miller; Guards, Walker and O'Connell; Substitutes, Fenno for Walker; Fuller for O'Connell.
