The victory, which was by eight points, showed they could put on a hectic drive the final minutes of play, something they have failed to do in many games previous to last night’s contest. The first quarter of the game was slow, ending 4 to 4, but after that things began to happen, and the contest became exceedingly rough at times. The Elks led at the half time marker 12 to 11, and again at the end of the third can: to 23" to 19, It was Elks througn most of the game. . After the fourth quarter was ugder way_about five minutes, the turning peint of the game arrived and definitely “showed that the Elks would come out on top, for the Eagles cracked. They were trailing their opponenfs by over 10 points. % In' this game Druliner emerged ville’s day (1699) probably .stnrlz-d} |it all. Pageantry came into it in| 1837.
