then both sides settled down to hard j play and at half time the score was ' 10-6 for the pen pushers.The second half started off at a lively clip, Keene again negotiating the basket, followed quickly by Kerr, the old war horse, which evened the score 10-10.Gibson now came to the fore scoring four points in quick succession.But for the close covering of Miller and Somers, who played a good defence game the Bank boys\u2019 score would have been larger.Just before the whistle, however, Miller on a pretty pass scored the final goal making 17-13 for his team.Mr.Dow acted as referee for both games to the satisfact on of all concerned and there was a fair sized but appreciative crowd.Some good ball has been witnessed in this inter-Y.M.C.A.league and as there is no charge for admission to see the games a good attendance is expected at the two games on «Wednesday next.Come down and see the fun, you won\u2019t regret it.Rand\tMcKee Youell (Gapt) McKee (Capt.)
