A victory for Steelton tonight at
Lebanon will add interest to the
present interscholastic basketball
race. Steelton tossers have been
adding laurels each week. 1t will
be a big night when they play in
this city. Both Central and Tech
play Steelton High here.
The announcement from Bethle-
hem that there will be no Interplant
League series this year was not
pleasant news to Steelton baseball
fans. That town was picked to fur

1t is hoped the plans to have an
interdepartment series will be sue
cessful.
Harrisburg is certainly to have
some Independent team, according
to reports. Now that there is no
likelihood of any Steelton League
similar to that of last season,
stronger efforts will be made to
make the local team one that will
advertise Harrisburg and make a
record OF victories.

ACADEMY WORKS
FOR TECH GAME
Contest Scheduled For Cathe-
dral Hall Tomorrow;
Strong Lineup

Harrisburg Academy cagers held
regular light practice this afternoon
in preparation for the game with
Tech High tomorrow. The quintet
is in good condition for this game
and have been holding regular prac-
tice all week except last Monday.
The regular lineup will be in the
game. Captain Wren and DeVore
will hold down the forward berths as
usual, Weigle will jump center and
Miller and Newlin will do the guard
ing. Wren has been showing speed
all season and is a dangerous man
near the basket. DeVore has led
the uptown quintet in scoring
though he does not shoot the fouls.
Former Central Star
Weigle is a former Central High
student and is graduated from the
Central scrubs of last year. He is
also a high scorer and has been
doing much of the foul tossing. Mil
Ter is a steady guard and sticks close
to his man. Though he has not
been high scorer he usually holds
his man with lower tally than
himself.
Newlin Is Fast
Newlin has been showing n fast
pace recently and is improving with
each game. He starred last Satur-
day when the Academy squad went
to York and will probably do the
foul tossing at the Tech game. stone,
Office or Stewart may also get in
the contest.
The game will be run off Satur-
day at Cathedral Hall where the
Academy holds its home game. SO
far the Blue and Gold quintet has
had two victories and one defeat.
They are hopeful of making a good
showing tomorrow and will have
plenty of support from their school.
The probable lineups will be:

of 43 to 25, the Technical High
School basketball squad went into a

team having won three and lost one,

star was Red" Huston. This lad
broke into the game for Tech, and
played the first half. During this
20 minutes he scored three field
goals, and netted 13 out of Is fouls.
This is the first real exhibition of
foul shooting displayed by a Maroon
player this season. In the second
half he was displaced by "Buddie"
Lingle.
AT the toss-up of the ball, Nc
Laughlin fouled, and Huston scored
the f1rst point for Tech; he repeated
the performance shortly after, max
ing the count two to nothing Hus-
ton missed his third trial. Gingrich
missed his first chance from the 15-
FOOT mark. Huston brought the to-
tai to four with two more fouls.
Gingrich tailed the first point for
York. like" Cohen a York guard
surprised himself by scoring his first
field goal of the season. With the
teams going at top speed, Huston
scored another foul, and Gingrich
made the score to 5 with a foul

goals and gave Tech the lead at %

players were never headed. The
score at half time was 23 to 10.
The York players showed an in
clination to run with the ball for
which frequent penalties were Justly

hacking was also in evidence. Added
to this was a tendency on the part
of Center Mclaughlin to do consid-

not lost a contest to date and were
hard losers At the beginning of the
second period, Coach Miller sent in
Kohlman for Smith, and Lingle for
Huston.
The second combination landed
more baskets than the first one, but
there was little difference in the
choice. The entire seven players
who took part for Tech showed
championship form. that should
give them plenty of chance to cop
the honors. Beck played well, and
scored three goals all in the final
half. Wilsbach PLAYED the Rest game
of the season, while each of the
other Maroon contestants were in
the game all the time. Gingrich's
foul shooting was the only factor to
keep the visitors in the running. The
