BASKET BALL

ALBANY I v. EX-HIGH 11. The game between Albany and Ex-High attracted a fair number of spectators at the University court. Albany took the throw off and scored within the minute, Ex-High equalising shortly afterwards. 1 all. Albany then took the lead, scoring twice in succession. 3 —l. An attack by Ex-High was frustrated by good defence. The game was not of an inspiring nature, neither team playing up to form. Miss Jamie was the next to score for Ex-High after a good piece of combined play, followed shortly afterwards by one from Miss Meinung for Albany. 42. This player was again successful. 52. A neat passing movement among the Albany forwards ended in another goal. G —2. Ex-High now combined better and made the score 6—3, then Albany twice. Miss James scored with a long shot for Ex-High. B—4.8 —4. Albany still held the upper hand, and scored three times in succession. 11—4. Miss Pearce was defending in good style for Ex-High. Albany were now warming to their work, and made the score 14—4 in their favour at half time. The second spell opened with a splendid passing movement by Ex-High, Miss Farquharson shooting successfully. Albany were now definitely superior in all departments of the game, Miss M‘Lean finishing off some good movements with five goals. 19—4. Ex-High now came into the picture with a splendid movement, Miss Jamie saving, followed by Miss Green for Albany, and then Miss Meinung. A better standard of play was now in evidence, but faulty handling by Albany kept the score down. Miss Abbot for ExHigh and Miss Parker for Albany were showing excellent defence. A brilliant piece of passing between Misses M'Lean and Meinung left the Ex-High defence standing, a goal resulting. The whistle went shortly afterwards with the score 27 —7 in Albany’s favour. Miss M. Fleming was the referee. SECOND GRADE. Albany 21, Tinopai 3. Blue Triangle 19, First 7. Caversham 23, Maori Hill 17. University 14, Athletic 13. Roslyn 16, Rawhiti 9. THIRD GRADE.
