LAUREL - The Hartington girls basket ball team came to this city last Friday night and won a victory over the local girls by a score of 24 to 22. It was an exiting, thrilling contest from start to finish with Laurel leading all the way until the final moments of the game. The two teams were evenly matched and put up a splendid exhibition that should have witnessed by a much larger crowd of local folks. Inability of the local girls to cage their shots were responsible for the defeat.
