VISITORS LOST BOTH GAMES.
Baltimore Basket Ball Teams Played
Local Y. M. @. A.

There were two games of basket ball at
the Y. NJ c. A. gymnasium last evening
the first being between the reserve teams
of the Central Y. NJ. c. A. of Baltimore
and the local Y. NJ. C. A., which resulted
in a victory for the locals by score of
"a to 2. In the second contest between
| the first teams of the two associations the
Baltimore auint went down in defeat be-
fore the locals by a score of 81 to S.
There was a large gathering present, ami
in both contests there was much loud root
which accompanied the visitors from Bal
timore Several times the players were un-
able to hear the signals on account of the
noise. Once Assistant Physical Director
Beckett appealed to the visitors to stop,
! but as soon as the contest was resumed
the noise began again with much vigor. Ii
was suggested that the summary action of
the referee Saturday evening a week ago,
when a spectator was elected, be repeated.
and it is more than probable that the Of
fciaiS will make arrangements to see that
the ladies who attend the contests are not
annoyed by having bands of enthusiasts
necessarily creating disturbance by their
roofing for their team.
In the second contest the first half closed

the supporters of the home team. In this
half they simply played all around the play
ers from Baltimore, and when the half
closed had piled up % additional scores
making the total 81 to their opponents y
In the latter part of the half the Baltimore
players played with desperation which
showed that though they were beaten they
We're determined to be game to the end
Just before the close of the half. as time
was about to be called. several of the play
ers fell in a scrimmage, and many thought
that from the way things looked there
going to be a mill between several of
them, but nothing of that sort happened.
The umpiring of Tanner was much Criti-
cised, he allowed the players to begin an
argument after each decision and seemed
unable to keep the members of the quints
well in hand. The lineup of the two teams
