The Palatka boys were fast, but not very ac-curate, and we succeeded in securing 41 points to their 17. The last game of the season was played here on February 12th. It wasa return game with Palatka. Their team was greatly weakened by theabsence of their regular center, while our team work was much improvedand we were playing on our home court. Hence the final score was 53 to8 in our favor. The gate receipts for this game were $4.25 and expenses were about$25.00. On account of the lack of support from the town and school, wewere obliged to bring our season to a close.
