IN WINNING LAST NIGHTS
MIX.

Three lively basketball games
proved to be entertaining for the pack
ed galleries at the "Y" last night, The
teams were all very evenly matched.
The Iowa Success, Baraca, and Com
pany G teams were the champions
of the nights battles. The Success
men won their initial game.
The first 60 with the Commercial
college Ave and the Morrell team
battling for honors proved to be the
college men finally winning over the
packers by a margin of two points.
The score was II to is in favor of
the O. G. c. five. McCarroll was the
shining light for the victors, and both
Gardner and Daggett put up spien-
did game for the losers,
The Company G team and the
Baraca five participated in the hard
est fought game OF the evening, with
the latter team grabbing the victory.
The game was close from start to
finish, with the soldiers constantly
ahead In the last few minutes Of
play the Baptists woke up. Then the
game was furious. The Baraca quin-
tet forged ahead, having total of 20
points to the guards mems IS when
the referees whistle called time. Nc
Elroy played star game for the
South Side men and Nelson perform
ed as we'll with Company G.
The Iowa Success quintet made
things lively for the Congregations
alists through the entire mix and then
defeated them by nice little margin
This is the first victory for the col.
lege basketeers and should prove to
be great encouragement. The game
was full of excitement and interest
from the start. The Success quintet
played a progressive game during the
entire thirty minutes of play and fn-
ished up with Is points to the ID reg
istered by the little Congregations
alists. Yahn played marvellous game
at guard for the I. s. S. team. while
Cain, with the ch,lrchgoers, did re-
markably we'll.

finish the season and the bitter past
is forgotten. He's good fellow at
that.
Cedar Rapids for sixth place. This
will be new sensation for Pa Hill
and the Cedar Rapids fans, as Hill
was never known to finish out of the
first division. Cedar Rapids will be
surprised by the class OF ball played
in the Central association. Hill will
probably underestimate the strength OF
this league as have most of the frst
year managers In this company. An
other thing, he will have to get to.
gether almost an entirely new team.
In Davt Milligan. Kerr and Brown, he
has three mighty good ball players
Cedar Rapids may prove the, dark
horse in this league this season. Let
us hope. Belden Hill and Cedar
Rapids will add prestige to the Central
association.
The TWO Tail-enders.
Keokuk ought to show class enough
to finish in seventh place They have
a franchise and one ball player He
has yet to prove that he can success
fully manage ball club. Keokuk
pulled of the prize bone head when
they released Pennington. A fine
manager and they didn't know It. What
was their loss was our gain. For the
good Of the league, we hope that the
Keokuk directors will spend a little
money and get few frst class ball
players for Manusch. The old town
might 60 just about crazy If they had
a few real ball players.
Waterloo holding the bucket. Tears
come to our eyes when he have to
assign DR.. Andrews and one Of the
best ball towns in the country to last
place. You may have witnessed the
moving pictures OF "Dante's Inferno"
which will be cool, grassy spot COM
pare. to the atmosphere around the
Waterloo bench after Kewanee gets
through taking three straight from
them at the beginning Of the season.
Just now DR.. Andrews figures on
making a ball team out of the big
bunch Of bushers that he has signed,
is beyond us. Shades Of Petite Hill,
Monte Manuel and Llewyllan! What
Jim Drohan won't do to that bunch
on the opening day, will be q plenty.
Jay had couple OF good players once,
Joe Wood and Jim Drohan. Jay ID
too good fellow to be managing a
