Wilmington Basket Ball Team
Wins First Home Game.
ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE
Professionals of the American
League Make Their First APP
pearance on the Floor at
Pyle's Academy.

Professional basketball was introduced
in this city last hight for the first time.
The game was between the Wilmington
team, recently placed here by the Ameri-
can League Basketball Association and
the Chester team, n member of the same
league. 1t was played ut Pyle's Cycle
Academy and large crowd was present
to cheer the local team on to victory.
Preparations for the game had been
nndc by officials of the league and those
who attended were surprised to see that
the room had been especially fitted for
the occasion.
The game was opened by Mayor Fish
er. who, after a few appropriate re-
marks, threw the ball out on the floor.
Mayor Fisher said that he was heartily
in favor OF such games as football, bas-
krtball and baseball. He said that he
hoped the citizens of Wilmington would
ratronize the basketball games at the
cycle academy as it was far superior to
some sports that have been held there.
His remarks We're highly appreciated and
he was loudly applauded.
The game was probably the best play
I'd and most interesting of its Kind ever
seen in this city. After a hard struggle
the team representing Wilmington won
by the score of IL to 10. The credit of
the victory is largely due to Holt, local
man. 1t was Hollis first game in pro-

well. He made three goals from the

AS the years passed and we entered
manhood's estate, to the satisfaction or
our relatives and friends we exhibited
a unity of feeling on vital point-both
were fond of the opposite sex. But ever
through the delicate fabric of our love-
dreams ran the zig-zag vein of contrarie-
ty. The dramatic instinct of our friends
was the alert for possible develop

party of young people, was proffered
a cocktail by most enticing young So
