COMPANY K FORFEITS GAME
Scheduled Contest in ArmOFy Goes
to G Company by Default, and Ex-
hibitiOn Game is Played, Resulting

Features OF the Battle.

In q match game between Company G.,
OF the District Military League, and a
scrub team called the All Stars, the for
rner won in a one-sided basketball ex-
hibition last night. by A to 5.
The scheduled game between Company
C and Company X was called off. and
Forfeited TO Company G because Company
X did not put a full team on the floor.
The Alexandria basketball team was TO
play Company II, but they failed 70 put
IN an appearance and the game was post
poned.
The feature OF the game was the goal
shooting OF Goucher and Mahoney and the
fine defensive work Of FURNACE, manager
Of the undefeated Northminsters. The
referee had no more than tossed the ball
into the air when It was passed up TO
Goucher and put into the basket. Ma
honey was the next in line to score, and
after that he and GOucheT each took turns
in shooting for the goal
Evard was the only other scorer OF the
team, making a goal IN each half and
playing a fine game. McGrath and Curtis
did the best work for the All Stars, the
former making a goal from the floor and
the latter scored on a free trial. This
half ended in a l4-to-3 score, in favor
Of Company @.
The second half was a repetition OF the
first, only every minute more OF play
meant q greater total Of points for the
winners. Goucher in this half made ten
goals. while NIahoney made five Doe.
who substituted for Curtis. scored the only
point for his team on a goal from the
floor and was loudly cheered by the crowd
!n the gallery.

LOWE BEATS DUMMY DECKER
Washington Boxer Given Decision
in Eight-Round Bout.
Referee Pat O'COnnOr's Decision
Hissed-Americus Throws Dan
Mcleod, of Canada.
Special TO The Washington Herald

1AlNAdL ~ AL-o ff@oiAAAbtSlA AiN-AAus
Baltimore, Nd. Jan. 21.-Although
Referee Pat O'Connor's decision was loud
" Kissed. the conservative ones were
willing TO concede Tommy Lowe the bet
ter Of his eEht-roun dispute with
Dummy Decker, OF Baltimore, at the
opening Of the new Monumental Sporting
Club at Abaugh's Theater tonight.
Tommy sent most Of the blows TO the
body, and by the time the last session
rolled around they began to tell on
Decker.
Lowe nearly scored a knockout in the
fourth session, when he sent Decker
against the ropes with a left jab TO the
stomach. The ropes saved the dummy.
He came back with vOlley Of let's and
rights that kept Tommy lodging
In the fifth and sixth Decker did most
of the fighting, although Tommy ex-
tended the invitation.
Both nght-weights started the eighth
determined 10 score a Knockout, Lowe
sending his left jabs in fast and hard,
while Decker was also on the Job with
his right upper-cuts, which dazed the
FOur-and-a-half street boy.
Americas, champion wrestler OF the
South. and Dan Mcleod, a big, brawny
Canuck, mixed It up in the other star
attraction. The Baltimorean found out
that he was not playing with a Joe
Turner or a Jack Spaulding, and after
resorting to every possible trick Of the
graphing game, succeeded in pInning
McLeod's shoulders to the mat in "a
minutes with a neck and back hammer
lock and leg hold.
The second fall went to Americas in
less than ten minutes, when he used a
scissors hold, which made Mcleod give
away.

the veteran catcher waxed enthusiastic.
