CHAMPIONSHIP
At BASKETBALL
TO CONSUMERS
IN A HOTLY CONTESTED GAME
THE WINNERS TAKE DECIDING
FIGHT FROM THEIR OPPo-
NENTs,THE FAST GOING WHIT
MANS.

Quite the largest crowd OF the clos
ing season assembled in the gallery Of
the Y. NJ A gym last night to wit
ness the final game Of the Y. N G. A.
major basketball league. This game
decided the championship between the
Whitmans and the Consumers, who
had been tied for the first place. The
Consumers took the lead at the start,
and by fast playing and accurate
shooting, managed to keep ahead
throughout the game. The Whitmans,
however, put UP plucky fight, and
played excellent basketball. Their
main weakness was their failure to
cage the ball when they had oppor-
tunities for doing so. They missed
many goals by poor shooting.
The first half of the game was the
most exciting. It ended 20 to 10 in
favor of the Consumers, and during
this period the crowd was on it's feet
most of the time cheering their re-
spective favorites and urging them on.
Capt. Olsen was the star OF the
game. He scored seven goals from
the field. Wallace tailed five in good
style, and Vinson played his usual
careful game at guard. Gibson was
the main point winner for the Whit
mans, and although Capt. Ftcas did
not figure much in the scoring. he
played a strong game and was always
with the ball.
The lineup was as follows:
Whitmans-Forwards F'icas, Glib
son; center, Harrell; Guards, Nc
Chung, Hoffman; substitute, Oliver.
Consumers Forwards: Durham,
Olsen; center, Langford; guards
Vinson.

With becoming modesty, the aldermen
proceeded to name the streets after

A garage connected with scales
house, owned by Joseph Gadek, OF
1872 State street, which had been
converted into a gambling den by a
gang Of fifteen crap shooters, was
raided at midnight by the police.
Complaints had been received about
crap shooting In this vicinity, and
the crap shooters were discovered
at their retreat late last night.
Roundsman Morris and Patrolmen
Rymarczak and Gutowski rounded
up the bunch, though In the raid
only seven of the fifteen were nab
bed, and two of these, escaped after
having been put under arrest. The
five young men, who were brought to
the station, spent the night IN jail
and this morning were fined 50 on
pleading guilty to crap shooting be-
fore Recorder Pickersgill. . All the
windows in the garage, the construc-
ton of which was just being COM
pleted, were broken by the escaping
"crappers,' who disregarded gashes
made by broken glass in their effort
to get away. Chief Burke stated
this morning that most Of those es-
Gaping are known, and that they will
probably be arrested later.
The five young men, who were fin
ed. were as follows, according to the
names they gave the police: John

twenty-five, no home; Joseph p
Smith, twenty-four, 280. Smith

ty-three, sos Elizabeth street, and
Anton Gadek, twenty-one, 872 State
street. The fines of all except Col
ubiewskf and Prevorak were paid,
and those two were held In the
lookup.
The raid followed the instructions
of Chief Burke to his men to break
up all crap games and make arrests
wherever possible Patrolman Ry-
crop shooting den, and secured the
assistance of Roundsman Morris and
Patrolman Gutowski, who quietly
crept to the door of the garage, and
at a given signal rushed In. Ev-
erything was confusion, and all the
paraphernalia used by the crap
pers' overturned. The glass in two
windows was smashed, and eight es-
capped by this means. The other
seven were held prisoners. Two Of
these, who are clerks, escaped from
the patrol wagon as the crap
seven" was being hustled into the
vehicle. According to the police
men they escaped accidentally, but
according to the five men brought
to the lookup they were given a
chance to escape, and sham effort
was made to recapture them.
Joseph Gadek declared this morn
ing that he knew nothing of the af-
fair until he heard the noise of the
raid, when he thought burglars were
