GIRLS SPLIT PAIR
WITH SIMMONS
As a result of the two (fames Mon-
day and Tue.-duy night, Miss Harris-'
irir.s left Abilene sharing e<|ual hon
or» with the Simmons ,-extet in the
matter of points gained and game.-
won The fir't game ended with the
close score of 27 to 2d, after a terrific
-tluggle on lioth sides. The second
night they turned the score and won
by a one point margin, avenging the
deft at of the previous night, tallying
24 points to Simmons’ 2.1. This was
the first time that Simmons has been
able to defeat the Kagles in thr«e
years.
In the first game Denton did not
-coie until Simmons had gamed a
lead of eight points After a shifting
of players, Denton gradually cut down
toe score hut was not able to over-
come tin- start that Simomns had hen
• filed by. Grant, Simmons’ captain,
Ini in -coring, and Vamell was next
for the Kagle.s. Both teams were se-
rious) handicapped by the sickness of
some of their most prominent play-
ers
Tuesday the team reversed the con-
ditions of their defeat of the night lie
lore and with Pearl West, captain,
leading the team in -coring with 17
point-, in comparison with 14 hy Ste-
ven-on of Simmons, they clipped the
wing- of their opponents in one of
the hardest encounter- of the -en
-on.

Co-ed Cagera Go
to T.W.C. Monday
Definite arrangement- have tieen
made in which Miss Harris-’ -extet
of fighter - will invade th** home court
of Texas Woman’s College next Mon
day night in an attempt to pine* the
T. W C. maidens on the mat, in an
attempt to settle the three year old
contention that has been growing with
each contest of the teams.
(,ames for the last two years give
no team the edge on dope, reg’ » ling
the amount of contests won. In M*23
the Kagles carried off the first irUme,
31 to IS, and later on in the season
tied with the Poly sextet, 21 to 21.
Past year the first game re-ulted in
another tie in which the tally was 22
to 22. Playing the la-t tilt of the
eric-, found the Kagles lo-ers ay a
one point margin, 24 and 2». This
give- each team a footing of one . ame
won and two tied. In the matt'r of
(mint our girls have the better of the
other team, hut you cannot base inuch
evidence on teams that have played
in the ptt't. The most conclusive iece
of dope that we have is the fact that
T. W. C. heat Commerce by a mvrgin
of 10 points and our team carri" I off
the go with Kast Texas in u a 'mint
lead. Looking at it in this light we
may 'ay that Denton has the lietter
of the cow -tow n maidens, hut the
closeness of the conte-ts in the past
are indicative of a rivalry that cannot
lie easily beaten or downed.
A goodly crowd of students houbl
moke arrangements to go over and
ee the games, encourage our girls in
their hard fight, and if no other in-
cen'ive offers, see the array of 'em-
inine beauty as presented hy the
