LIBERTY wins
FROM CAMBRIDGE

The Liberty basketball five in the
third scheduled game defeated its op-
ponents, the Cambridge City quintet,
in a hard fought battle by the score
of $500.
Coach Shook started the game with
his sub men and it was not until the
second half that all the regulars were
seen in action.
Samuels, the lanky center Of the
Liberty five. proved the bright light
on the Union county boys working list
making eight field goals and two free
throws, IS points.
For Cambridge. Fisher and Daniels
shared the scoring honors making ten
and eight points respectively.
In the first half the score was neck
to neck, the half ending with Liberty
one point in the lead. The score at
the end of the half was 1914.
In the second half the addition Of
Maibach and Stevens on Liberty's
lineup greatly strengthened its ag-
gressiVe work.
Liberty was able to gain an edge on
the Cambridge team by the lack of de-
fensive work on the part of the Cam
bridge five.

set in the first game the chances OF
winning the district tourney seem GER

The most dangerous men on the Lib

exert himself at any time during the
Cambridge City game, Stevens and
Samuels. Both Stevens and Maibach
are fast forwards and will give Crafts
