C., FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1925 1.0.0.F. Whist- Crib Champions The grand finale of the Terrace “linter-fraternal whistand cribbage tournament was plaved on Friday last, the honors being won by the Oddfellows and Native Sons, for whist and cribbage respec- tively. in order to wind up the schedule as originally set. The first game saw the elimination of G.W.V.A. as contenders for whist honors by the Oddfellows, who won by 18 points, which gave them a com- fortable lead over Native Sons, their nearest opponents. By a peculiar coincidence the last game was between the two leading teams, and, while the Sons were unable to overcome the lead that the Oddfellows had gained earlier in the evening, they reduced the margin to five points-in defeating the whist league leaders. The following is the standing by points as the teams finished: WHIST-— Pts. L0:0.F..... veveteeee tees 1069 Native Sons...........5 ... 1064 GW. Vi. Avs ccc cece ere eenees 1058 B. D.
