COMMISSIONERS WON
IN ROUGH BASKET BALL

The Commissioners and the Eastern Ath-
letic Club clashed in a basket ball game
last night that will go down in the history
of the sport one of the toughest contests
seen in this city, the former team winning
out by the score of 421a to 261S.
Both teams got off we'll and the audience
had settled back to witness a good game
but the players soon got heated up and a
contest was turned into an unhealthy slug
ging match. On two occasions time had
to be taken out to allow a player to re-
cover from injuries received at the hands
of an opposing player.
The Commissioners were outweighed. but
they made up this advantage by playing a
clever and fast game. Manager Thompson
of the Eastern five was the star for his
team, having made seven field goals.
Boyles for the winners also made seven
goals and is entitled to second honors.
Dreager and James also played good ball

Roy was the second son Of Mr.. and

Of our own county, being born at Ellen

The piece is from the pen of the
author of "A Poor Relation" and

American tramp, not as a repulsive,

knowing his own distress, still bleeds
for others woes and who offers ever

which even a husband is sometimes
