URsAHs AND OUTLAWS
Win in Saturday Evenings Contests
by Good Margins.

The postponed games in the inter-
association league series at the Y. NJ.
c. A. were played Saturday evening,
the Urbans and Outlaws winning their
games by SUBSTANTIAL margins The
Acorns- Urbans match was bitterly
contested and was much closer than
the score appended would indicate. IT
was somewhat rough at times and
marked by unsportsmanlike play,
number of the players Of both sides
going beyond the limitations Of the
rules. r. Lewis Of the Acorns was
ruled off the floor toward the middle
Of the last half because of fragrant in
subordination in the face Of repeated
warnings from the referee.
No substitute was available and the
AcOrns continued the game with four
players, but Kelly of the Urbans soon
dropped out Of his own accord and the
game ended shortly thereafter. The
score at the end Of the first half was
SO in favor of the Urbans.
The Outlaws VS.. Excelsiors match
was a decidedly tame affair and was a
parlor game in contrast to the first and
was won by the Outlaws with no .eX-
tended effort. The crowd was at fever
heat, principally because their favor
ties could not win, but against what
a. few Of the more rabid and untutored
In the fundamentals of the game, what
was considered by them to be the
woeful incompetence Of the official,
who by the way has had over sixteen
years of continuous experience in the
game. both as a player and official.

ball in the Y. NJ. c. A. gymnasium Sat
Hrday afternoon, 37-15. The college
boys came here with an envia;ble repu-
tation. but were never in the running
during any stage Of the game and
were clearly outclassed from whistle
and whistle.
The first half was as cleanly played
as any game seen here this season,
both teams playing a similar style OF
ball, with the half ending 1873 in
Windhams favor. Toward the middle
OF the second session Wesleyan, real
izing that she did not have a look-in,
started to play rough-house, but
Windham was there and met every
advance Of the visiting players with a
tit for tat. Referees Sullivan was
not to be bulldozed and run the game
with an iron hand.
Every player on the home team
scored one or more baskets from the
floor, but Captain Kelley and Rich
mond were in a class by themselves,
scoring from difficult angles and put
ting life and ginger into a game that
was only game in spots. The team
work was good at times, but the over
