FINAL GAME

wednesday evening.
VIIELL, those Jasper boys were presented
w with one artistic trimming over at the
Camden Armory on Saturday by the Grey
stock champions. 1t was one Of the worst
lacings ever handed any team, and the
score of 35-17 clearly shows how completely
the Churchmen outplayed the Jewels.
There was shift in Jaspers lineup. Bill
Dark taking the place of Barney Sedran,
who was absent due to the fact that he
was to be married on Sunday.
The Jewels never performed like the
same club and their short, sharp criss-
cross passing and general teamwork never
was in evidence at any time. on the other
hand, the GJeys apparently never made u
mistake, and the team worked like a we'll
oiled piece of machinery.
The Jewels failed to tally n solitary field
goal in the first half, but managed to get
one, their lone two-pOnter of the engage
ment by Jack Fox a pass from Fried
man when ten minutes of the second period
had gone. on the other hand, the goals of
the winners came at regular intervals
Raymond Cross banging in two of his ia =
nous backward shot, five rninutes after play
started. BY way of comparison there was
none. Every man ON GreyStock played
sterling ball, while the Jasper all APP
peared off at once There was absolutely
nothing to it,
The game was marred by spectators who
acted in most unsportsmanike manner
at either end of the cage They ATTEMPTED
TO interfere with Hough and Fogarty shoot
ing fouls, but as they did not shake the
cage Referee Billy Kelly could not inter-
fere And right here let it be said that
Kelly continued his wonderful work, biased
opinion of the Jasper and Greystock rooters
to the contrary Notwithstanding. Some per-
sons don't know a good official when they
see one
Toward the end of the battle a mix-uD
occurred which brought five or six PLAYERS
together, and ere order was restored sew
eral officers had entered the cage.
Big Crowd Present
There was an even larger crowd present
than at the first game The receipts of
the initial clash We're about $1O5O, and the
second somewhat larger. Assuming ex-
penses of $3.50 it leaves $780, or $4OO to
each club. The management of the Crews
is taking 500 out Of the money received
from every contest and the players share
the rest. 1t is split in seven parts. six
players and assistant manager John Gam
BILE, Major Bailey not taking any of the
revenue. with seven to cut $500, it will
be seen they are averaging about $40 per
game. The Jaspers have "A second team as
large as the first and it has not been de-
cded how they will divide the receipts.
What 'They" Thought of 1t
Following are a few of the comments
expressed by those who attended:
Joseph l.. Bailey, manager of the Greys:
I am very much pleased with the success of
the team and, as / remarked on Wednes-
day, still have faith in its ability to win.
Am exceedingly sorry that anything of
troublesome nature took place. but it Is inn
possible to hold the management for what
occurred among the players.
Joe Fogarty, captain Greys: We will be
in there plugging to get the next one.
John Gamble. assistant manager Greys:
Don't prefer to say anything at this time.
