GEORGETOWN
Team Flies the Track and No Game is Played -- K.U. Beats S.C.
The game of basket ball that was to have been played last night between the teams of Kentucky University and Georgetown College was called off because of failure to agree on a referee. Georgetown contended that Mr. Kline, the physical director, should act as referee during the entire game. To this K.U. would not agree, but proposed that Mr. Kline referee one half and a State College man the other half. Neither side would yield and the Georgetown boys returned to Georgetown. It was said that they did not want to play the game, fearing the result with two players injured.
A large crowd was present and would have been disappointed if the State College team, which was present, had not agreed to play against K.U. Their offer was accepted and an interesting game resulted, K.U. winning by a score of 12 to 5.
Game Writeup
A DELAYED DISPATCH
GEORGETOWN, KY., Feb. 12 -- Nothing short of consternation reigned in basket ball circles this morning when Jones, the star guard, appeared on the college campus with his arm in a sling. In view of the fact that the local team is to play K.U. tonight, Jones' injury is a matter of serious consequence. The injury is a sprain and is the result of falling from a train two days ago. Jones was absent from college yesterday, attending his sister's wedding, and it was not known until today that he would be out of the game tonight.
Sutton, who played in the first K.U. game is also disabled, having burned his shoulder on a radiator during practice.
Capt. Parrigin realizes that he has the hardest task of the season to beat the K.U. team in its own gymnasium. But he has some splendid subs and will put up a game fight, as his team always does.
