ALl-STARS PUT
EIGHT MARKERS
BEHIND o'METz
Floor Work of Thompson
and Sox Quigley Excites
Admiration Of Fans Two
Greeks Get in Game.
All.stars, 8: a. 8. M.. 8.

Ail-Stars, 8; A. 8. NJ, n.
The All-Stars defeated the A. s. NJ
five last night. nosins them out in q
close and exciting game by the score
OF to 7. Owing to the inability Of
Griffith, half back, and Williams, first
rusher, to get here In time for the
game. Joe Bulla and Vic Newman OF
the Greeks, were used. Both put up
cracking good games, Joe getting two
goals. one on hard drive and the
other on an assist from Thompson
The work of Thompson and Quigley
showed to great advantage and both
were literally applauded for their
work.
Thompson, while not the speedy ar
ticle that was generally thought. is
the type of player who gets there
when he's needed without the needless
exertion OF running himself ragged
and wearing himself out before the
game has gone far. When Tommy
got that ball up around the cage
O'Metz Invariably had to stop it and
he did pretty good job OF booting at
that.
ouisiey Works Floor.
Sox Is the best floor worker by far
who has been on the local floor this
season. He seems to make the pellet
follow him with his quick hooks and
jabs. This was noticeable time after
time when Sox would get the ball in
a scrimmage and skate away with it
when it, hardly seemed possible for
any one man to go In and rescue it
from the struggling mass. His feed
ing to the rushers was great to behold
and If any man on the floor deserves
thn hoc Er0 M
the credit surely goes to him.
The wild swinging INDUCED In In
previous games was noticeably absent
last night, especially by Thompson
and Sox, who would seldom drive I'M
less they had worked the ball into an
open shot
The third eastern player. Pop Ban
non at goal, was decidedly off color
letting the first two goals made by the
A. 8. M. five go by before he made 4
stop. Besides this he kicked two In
the draperies, giving his work very
amateurish aspect. Pop is good goal
tender and his work last night was
not his best by any means. He was
all smiles all through the game, nod
ding right and left to his many friends
who remembered him in the old days.
His shin pads made quite hit with
the audience but no SO much with
him. as he remarked earlier in the
evening that he preferred the old
style all the time. The guards are a
patent by old Barney Doherty, who
conceived the idea to get the full
seven inches which the Eastern Polo
league allows the goal tender.
O'Metz Guards Goal Well.
For the A. S. NJ. Lou Quigley and
OMetz get the plums. Lou tied
Thompson for the champion goal get
ter Of the evening with five clean
drives. O'MetZ once more showed
that he takes his hat off to none when
it comes to guarding the goal. and al
thought 1t might seem strange that
such a statement would be made from
the number of goals made on him, one
has to take into consideration that his
defense wilted in several instances.
leaving him all alone with sometimes
as many as three of the opposing play
ers driving at him. He came In for
a goodly share of the applause.
The going proved little too strenu-
Gus in the third period for Williams,
who retired in favor of Abel. The
work of the two was about on par.
Fry and Evans were not as effective
as usual, seemingly being unable to
hang on to the ball when they had an
opportunity to do something with it.
Here is where the All-Stars excelled,
password
Lou Quigley started the scoring,
getting one behind Bannon just seven
seconds after the game had started
and following suit in 1925 minutes for
the second goal for the Seeders with
out Bannon accepting chance.
Thompson soon tied the score with
two terrific drives from the side, 60
ing past O'Metz without getting move
out of Harry, who was unable to get
his eyes focused on the pill in time to
set himself. The period ended with
both teams adding one to their total.
Score Stands Even.
They played on even terms again in
the second period. Thompson, Fry.
Thompson and l.. Quigley scoring in
order. The All-Stars won out in the
third period. counting three while the
Seeders ran them very close second
with two.
1t was good game and the fans
got their moneys worth. but they
were somewhat disappointed in not
seeing the original All-Stars work.
Griffith and Williams both sent tele.
grams that they would be on hand
Thursday if wanted. Griffith could
not come on account Of playing in Ra-
cine last night. while Williams was in
Henry, ILL.,. and found it impossible to
get here.
