SEASON BROUGHT To
CLOSE BY BANQUET
Peck Chapel Wins Championship in
Sunday School Basketball
League.

A most successful-the first-season OF
| the Sunday School Basketball League OF
Washington was brought to a close last
night at a brilliant banquet held in the
assembly hall OF the Y. NJ. c. A, attend
ed by the officers. managers and players
of the league and several guests. After
tine dishes had been cleared away. Rev.
John MacMurray president of the league.
acted as POSTMASTER of the meeting. and
introduced Rev. Mr.. Wenchell. Hon. III.
T. +. Mcfarland. and Messrs. Schnare.
he Grange. Campbell. Lawton. Fuller.
Dc Cast, and Beckett of of whom gave
short speeches commencing the league and
its work
1t will he remembered the league was
organized for the purpose OF increased
regular Sunday school attendance and to
stimulate interest in clean games and
manly sport In both these aspects the
league was highly successful.
During the course of the program Mr..
William h. Cooper presented the rep
rescntatives of Peck Chapel with the
magnificent silver loving cup. the trophy
their team won. which was accepted
by Mr.. II. Howell. Peck Chapel lost
but one game. The others in their
order were Christ Lutheran with eight
wins and two losses: Epiphany with sew
on wins and three losses: Mckendree
with five wins and five losses; Eastern
with two wins and eight losses. and
Covenant with no wins and ten losses
Peck Chapel. although suffering but
one defeat. was never able TO let up and
tax" things easy. Christ Lutheran.
Epiphany. and Mckendree were always
fighting at their heels. The Eastern
and Covenant teams both deserve cred
il for sticking in the league despite
their reverses and defeats, and all in
all. while no sensational basketball was
shown, the games were as well played
as the great majority of games for
teams of this size, and were closely
enough contested to draw large crowds
at every game.
The interest shown in the league this
year makes the prospects bright for the
addition of a Junior class league next
year. The success of the season was
highly gratifying to l.. w. DeGast and
Earl b. Fuller. the OriSinators of the
idea in Washington, and Mr.. Fuller
particularly has taken an active part
in the league. filling the position of
secretary Of the board OF managers.
