There was no doubt in he minds | of the fans that the varsity men! were the finest aggregation of leath- er tossers that has ever been seen in the Slope country. Once the univ y hands on the ball they worked it under the Phantom net with uncan-| ny passing and the shorter Phantoms | found is practically impossible to| stop their rangy rivals from sinking setups. In Curtis Schave and Glen Jarrett, former Grand Forks high luminaries, the fans saw two boys who will un- doubtedly wear the green and white in thcir years to come. Both of the young-ters at times last night ran away from the varsity men on the offense and flashed a passing game of their own that was beautiful to watch. Wear Frat Colors Members of the University lineup last night played under the colors of the fraternity to which they be- long, the university athletic board of control refusing to recognize the quint as an official university team and forbidding the use of the varsity eS. Nick Roberts, former Milton col- lege ace, was the only Phantom who could hit the net with any degree of accuracy. He negotiated five field goals to keep his mates in the scor- ing column. Vic Brown, one of the three form- er Valley City boys in the varsity lineup, was the adding machine for the victors. The tall, blonde, taci- turn youth sunk 11 field goals. Paul Boyd, 185 pounds of brawn fnd muscle, also thrilled the fans with his guarding game and the ease with which he sank gift shots.
