RAW DEAL WAS
GIVEN OAKLAND
Salisbury, pa Crowd Showed
ClOven HOOf When Locals
Visited Them.

Manager Sweeney took his Collegians
over to Salisbury, Pa, last Tuesday
evening, for game scheduled with the
team OF that place, but after the two
teams had PLAYED five minutes or there
abouts, the Oakland team was ordered
off the floor by their manager, on ac-
count of the miserably poor referee in
charge of the game, who, it seems,
thought it his religious" duty to call
foul every time one of the visiting play
ers crooked an arm or looked cross-eyed.
We are informed that the Salisbury re-
fierce and the team of that place are used
to basket ball of the ''parlor" variety
which is played on toy billiard table,
and anything like an attempt to play
the game as it should be played is
Cooked" upon as extremely 'horrid'
and "unlady-like. Our boys, however,
had the satisfaction of leading by a
score of SO when Manager Sweeny
called halt, and feel that they could
have beaten their opponents hands
down" If given the right treatment.

They HAD THEIR
PEP" ALONG.
Locals Put 1t All Over JOhnstOwn
In Fast Game.

The Oakland Collegians displayed a
most gratifying flash of their old-time
dash and vim in what was undoubtedly
the fastest and most exciting game of
basket ball ever pulled eff on the
local floor, when they met the great
team of the Johnstown, Pa, Atlas
Athletic Club last Thursday night.
Shortly after play commenced the
visitors quickly ran up q lead OF 50, and
it looked for time like the visitors
would score win, but the home boys
pulled themselves together, with the
result that the opposing five was held
10 one more goal and one foul, while
jincell made three good shots and
9olden one, the first half ending lis IN
Johnstown's favor.
When play was resumed in the second
half the Collegians switched their meth
cd of attack, BoldeD, Sanner and Sincell
working some fine team play and eX
cellent pass work, which resulted in
three field goals by the latter right off
the bat" the play getting 50 fast from
this point on that it was difficult for
spectators to follow the ball, and the
whirlwind attack Of the locals complete,
~ upset and bewildered the visitors,
who succeeded in caging only one goal
during this half, SO closely were their
forwards guarded by Frantz and CHESS

1t was stated by one of the direc-
tors of the employers. after their
meeting, that it is hoped by this action
to forestall a situation such as Butte
experienced In June, 1916, when in
dustry was suspended for a month
by general strikes. The employers
recognize that world wide influences,
over which they have no control ana
which are felt here as elsewhere, have
caused the cost of living to advance
TO abnormal prices. Thus a condition
has been created demanding the best
thought and effort in this community
for a solution as beneficial as possible
to employer and employe alike.
Uncertainty and unrest now, 1t was
explained. will paralyze industry and
commercial enterprise. The building
season, short enough In Butte. IL sub
jected to a few weeks delay will stop
deyelopment of the community for the
entire year, injuring alike the man
who draws the pay check and the
man who signs 1t.
