NAVAL TRAINING
LOSES
Poths Team Blows in Final
Minutes and Drops
Game, 3l-24
MAKE GREAT RALLY

Losing in the last three minutes of
play is a common fad in the Naval
Training Camp basketball circles. After
holding the S. p. H. A. quintet to a
s~tandstill for 81 minutes last night,
Poth's aggregation again forgot all they
knew about the game in the last couple
of minutes and lost out by the score of
1924.
But even at that the sailors deserved
to win. as they completely outplayed
their opponents, and when the field goals
were summarized 1t was found that they
had beaten their rivals by a single one,
getting IL against 10.
The game was really thrown away
b. the Navy Yarders. This was the re-
suit of poor foul throwing. a depart
ment of the game in which they have
previously proven decidedly proficient.
Manager Poth was unable to account
for the inability of his men to connect
from the ifteen-foot mark and expressed
his displeasure In no uncertain tones.
He has come to the conclusion. however.
that there is such a thing of playing
too much basketball.
This week his club has been sched-
uled for five games and next week
they will play but one. and that will be
on Friday evening with Hancock. con-
sidered by many as the best club in the
American League.
