Glass TONIGHT IN
THE BROWNSON CAGE
St. Ann Five Down Tonight
To Show Their
Speed
co. C.--MADELEY
LIFT THE LID

When Brownson turns their siege
guns against the st. AIMS team, of
Philadelphia, at Brownson Hall tonight.
one of the fastest battles staged here
in many moons should result. The St.
AIMS have a reputation in their home
town as fast and game aggregation
never giving up until the timekeeper's
whistle toots for the end of the game,
and always keep plugging along. They
possess two lightning fast forwards in
Mccain and Mckinley, who also pos
sess able understudes in Tighe and
Morris. Mccain is touted as one of
Sleepytown's best products at the gentle
art of samming them in from the foul
line Nugent, the tall and rangy center
of the Saints, is wcll-known to the
Brownson fans, his great feats in past
years at BrownsOn Hall with st. Eliza
beth's and Crescent still remaining
green in their memory. Gallagher and
G.. Tighe are the defenders of the st.
1 Ann fort. and have aided materially IN
the recent victories of this team.
! The Brownsonites are now playing the
best ball of their career, and with the
addition of Charley McDonough. a no.
ticeable improvement in the team work
is observed, His stellar work was the
feature of the game with Greystock Re
serves, he twice batting the ball in the
basket from a jump Off, annexing a total
of four double deckers for the evenings
lpastime, besides banking his opponent
without a field goal. Johnny Burke is
back in old time form at the foul mark
and his floor work is a feature of every
contest. Joe Haney, the locals streak
of lightning at forward, will be back in
the game. and with this scoring machine
i'm action things look squally for the
Saints. Mark McDonough, who set n
high scoring record for guard in
Brownson Hall in Friday nights game,
viii again be on the job. He added six
two pointers TO his collection in Fri
days game. Walsh and Rigney will
3 take acre of the other guard positions.
This win be the first of a hard series
of games that Manager Mulvena has ar
ranged for the Brownsonites during
January.
p On next Friday night the opponents
e will be the crack Parkesburg, Pa, team
s which has the distinction of humblinl
> De Nori in game this year. It Z
= probable that the llazleton team. of the
t Pennsylvania League, will be the attrac
j. tion after Parkesbmg. and on January
29 comes the big game for the locals
which is the first of three game series
with De Neri, who up to last Saturday
? night were leading the Eastern League
and who are now only half game be
= hind Camden, the leaders.
r There is an appetizing preliminary il
o prospect when the Aladeley and Com
panv c Reserves teams clash. This il
2 the deciding game of three gam'
series, each team having captured on
4 game. and it is expected that a fierc
: and fast contest will be the order of tn
evening.

The Atlas team is in fine shape
again, Walsh being able TO resume his
position as guard and with the as
sistance of his partner. Webb, it looks
as If the sturdy forwards OF the Hag-
ley five will find much difficulty in
scoring goals against these big fell
lows. Weldin has fully recovered
from his recent injuries, and he is eX-
pected to hold down his center job in
fine style Both Hume and Carswell
much is expected of them in this
