DUTCH OUT;
CRESCENTS In
BrsWnSOn Gets Old Rivals for
Friday Night Game
at H0me
LOCALS MUST TOSS
SOME TO WIN OUT

The Second Dutch team will not
appear against Brownson tomorrow
night as announced on account of
playing Viotrix for the championship
of Philadelphia. Managers Farley and
Fitzpatrick of Brownson received this
notice yesterday and Immediately
looked around the market for the best
team procurable. Fortunately the in
vincible Crescents have an OFF night
tomorrow and the local fans will be
given another rare treat in seeing
them here. On their first appearance
here this season Crescents defeated
the locals by a 1915 score and natur-
ally the library youths are out for
revenge. The team which Manager
Schaufler brought here several weeks
ago was certainly a speedy one. but
the aggregation that comes down to-
morrow will far outclass it.
Mike SAKE, the foul shooting wiz
zard, regarded as the champion of
Philadelphia, in this department, will
be among Haggerty's speed marvels.
SAKE is one Of the most reliable foul
tossers in cage circles in this section
and every year he receives fattering
offers from Eastern League teams. On
account of his professional response
hilities he has been unable to break
into the big leagues and confines his
activities to playing independent ball.
Mike was unable to get in Crescent's
lineup last time and his absence was
sorely felt. AT Harrisburg on Satur-
day he tossed nine of thirteen fouls
and dropped in a trio Of field goals.
Penrose, the light but fast forward
who made quite a favorable impress
sion on his previous visit here, will
act as SaXe's running mate. The di-
minutive advance man, despite his
size. is one of the best floor workers
ON the team and can shoot like a rapid
fire gun.
The main attraction of the evening
however. will be Alex McWilliams
the scintillating star from the Grey
stock ranks Mac has been i'm the East
crn League for several years and in
every account of a GreystOck contest
his name stands out cOnspicuously
Alex is from a family of cage artists
and is ranked AZ the best. His shoot
ing ability is recognized by all East
ern League followers. This will be
his first appearance here and judging
from his reputation his performance
alone should be worth seeing.
Turk Kirkpatrick. McWilliams' rum
ming mate from Greystock, will be
along to help his team to victory
Kirkpatrick needs no introduction
here as he has pulled off some great
stunts in The past at Fourth and Jack.
