Before the largest crowd of the sea-
son Teddy Lewis Em-Roes five defeat
ed the a. s. NJ. team last night by the
score of to 3. 1t was as pretty an
exhibition OF the sport as the fans
have seen in a long time. With credit
to the local five it can be truthfully
said that every goal made by the Wis
itors was earned. and that they had to
extend themselves to the limit in or
der to get away with the game.
A rough house was narrowly averted
in the second period when Walt Evans
and Harold went at each other. When
Walt banged Long, speedy first rush
for the visitors. into the wainscoting,
Harold retaliated by picking Walt up
tossing him into the netting surround
ing the playing surface. Walt came
right back with a rush at Doc. but was
little too light and was forced to
pick himself up from the floor. Wait
then made a flying tackle at Harold.
BY that time teammates pulled the
boys apart.
Boys Ride Lewis.
For the Seeders, Evans and Fry
put up the best game. especially in the
first two periods. when they alter
mated in riding Lewis with telling ef-
feet, the big boy getting but few
chances to show his skill in caging
the pill, but as in previous games
played by the Capital City five, his
weight told in the long run, and he
ran wild in the third period, making
three goals in rapid order. Harold
broke up play after play in the most
scientific manner. O'Brien. who was
in Sipe's place at halfback, was the
noticeable weakness in the visitors
lineup. Long played crafty game,
but the ball would not roll right for
him, and he missed several chances
to score.
The Seeders had the only in-and-out
of the game, when Quigley shot ter
rifle drive past May. only to see it
loop the cage and come bounding out.
1t was unfortunate, as the boys de-
served an even break on the luck, with
the game they were putting up.
But one goal was made in the first
period. Quigley getting it on back
hand swipe in 4:51. 1t was a nice
play, perfectly executed. This period
was the slowest of the tussle, both ap-
parently feeling each other out. and
ended with the score I to 0 for the
Seeders. Shortly after the gong had
rung for the second period. Harold
got the ball back of the center Of the
floor and flashed one by O'Metz. Quig-
ley put his team one to the good for
ty-four seconds later, when he de-
Elected a shot off Evans club. 1t was
a cleverly executed play.
QuieIey Reused Hope.
The third period was all Lewis
His best bit of work came when he
Gagged his last goal. Carrying the ball
right up to O'Metz, he fooled the guar
dian into jumping, and then pitched
the ball behind him before he could
recover.
Quigley gave his supporters Joy on
q rush when he pitched the ball over
Longs club. and drove 1t straight into
the visitors cage in four seconds.
lLong ended the scoring when he car
Tried the ball through the local de-
kfense, drawing O'Metz to the side OF
1.-The cage. and pitching 1t past him.
Smokes Win Easily.
The curtain raiser between the
Greeks and the Smokes was all in
favor Of the Smokes. who filled the
cage after Newman's withdrawal The
game was fairly fast. Dutch Oesting
was hitting them right on the nose,
caging pretty one from the center
together in good form, Geyer doing the
floor work and Clark the cover-point-
ing. Lancaster. with but one defense
man. put up nice game for the
Greeks.
