Defeat
For The Mounts By Score Of
q To IS
Mansfield's Team Too Fast
For The Locals

The second half proved the undoing
of the Mounts in their basketball
game with Mansfield at the Y. M. C.
A. Wednesday evening. The final
score was 21 to 15 in Mansfields fav-
or. Every bit of seating space was
taken up by an enthusiastic body of
spectators.
The first half Of the contest was the
Mounts In every sense of the word.
Mitchell was on the receiving end
constantly Of series after series of
passes and, despite the excellent
work Of Mansfeld's guards, Gagged
three field baskets individually, while
Mansfield's three goals we're divided
up among as many players. In addi.
tion, Mitchell threw two fouls, which
made the score 10 to In favor of the
locals at the termination of the first
half.
The game took on a different ap-
pearance when the whistle blew for
the second period Of play. shireman,
the life Of the team, had been i'll all
day and the strain commenced to tell
In the latter part Of the game. Much
OF the locals snap seemed spent,
while baskets could not be located by
the forwards All Of the field scoring
this half was done by Fisher. the new
man, who threw two very pretty bas-
kets. His passing and guarding was
Of good calibre also.
Mansfield worked splendidly during
this portion Of the game. Murphy,
substituted in the second half, was in
the game every minute of play and
his three baskets we're quite spectac-
ular. He also tossed two fouls, scor-
ing the greater part Of his teams to-
tai points In this half.
Spectators seemed agreed that
Mansfield's close guarding Of Mitchell
during the second half, coupled with
the inability of other local players to
shoot baskets, defeated the Mounts.
Mansfield must be given credit for
having an excellent team and one
which will be contender for the CEN
trail Ohio championship. The team
work was beautiful, her formations
hard to break up and her basket
shooting excellent.
There was but one thing which, in
the opinion of many, marred the con-
test and that was the behavior of
the crowd. The constant hooting
and yelling when Mansfield player
started to throw a foul goal finally
forced the referee to call foul on
the crowd, thus giving Mansfield an
opportunity to score another point.
Manager Kinney announced that
the Newark Y. M. c. A. team would
play here next week and also opt-
lined the schedule for the remainder
Of the season.

NATURAL HISTORY
MUSEUM IN NEED
President Osborn Says lnStitu-
tons Finances Are in
Crucial State.

The Museum of Natural History has
reached critical point in its financial
history, according to Henry Fairfield
Osborn, its president, Professor Os-
born entertained the trustees at dinner
at his home, $50 Madison sv., yester-
day. after the annual election OF on
GERS, and there discussed the financial
difficulties of the museum.
He declared that the municipal APP
preparation for maintenance had fallen
short $4,000, and that personal contri-
buttons from the trustees amounting TO
$4,000 were necessary last year. The
income from the 100000 bequest
from Mrs. Morris X. Jesup is not avail
able this year, he said. Among the
trustees and guests at the dinner were
Joseph NJ Choate, J. p. Morgan, Henry
c. Frick, Ogden Mills, Archer NJ. Hunt
ington, John B. Trevor, DR.. Walter b
James, Thomas Dewitt Cuyler, Felix
NJ. Warburg, Frederick +. Brewster,
Cabot Ward, Adrian lselin, jr., Arthur
Curtiss James, George W. Wlckersham,
A. d. Juilliard, Percy r. Pyne, Madison
Grant, Charles Lanier. George F. Baker
and r. Fulton Cutting. Mayor Mitchell
and Controller Prendergast were In
vited, but did not attend.
The work of the museum for the last
year was reviewed by President Os-
born. At present there are twenty
nine expensive expeditions engaged IN
scientific research and explorations.
One of the most interesting announce
ments was in regard to the Congo eX-
petition, now in its sixth year, during
which forty tons of specimens have
been gathered in the jungle and along
the banks of the Congo. About one
fourth of them are awaiting shipment
10 New York.
Herbert Lang and James Chaplin are
the expeditions leaders. They finished
their field work two years ago, and
since then have been preparing the
specimens for removal TO the museum.
Chaplin is now on his way home. He
is bringing a large shipment of the
specimens, and is expected to arrive
the early part Of March.
The educational work of the museum
has been a great success, Professor
Osborn said. A million and a quarter
pupils have been reached and 45l of
the city schools supplied with study
material. A branch museum has been
opened at the Washington irving High
School and lantern slides lent 70 the
teachers. The former officers and trus-
tees were reelected yesterday.
