A TIE GAME.
The best the Clinton girls could do
Tuesday night was to tie the game with
the Stratford girls here in the arena,

ed to get "real rough" and Referee W.
Johnson had them on the fence. Strat-
ford depends practically all on their
rover, Miss Allen, and their three goals !.
carte by her shooting, but most of the
time between Misses Schoenais and
Bramfaeld, she was well watched! The
Clinton girls had the big enetof the play
in the three quarters and let many easy
chances slip by. Following was the
score by quarters:-1st—Clinton 1,
Stratford,2; 2nd—Clinton 1; 3rd, Chil-
