at League Island
READY FOR ST. COLUMBIA

The largest crowd OF the season at
League Island last evening Witnessed
the two best games played there in any
one night this year The first was be
tween New York Ship and Keystone, and
resulted in victory for the former by
the score Of 40 to "a THE second was
between Frank Poth's Naval Training
five and Pusey & Jones, and ended in
triumph for the service aggregation by
the score Of 35 to 30.
The New York keystone game was
far closer than the score indicates, and
at the end of the first half the West
Philadelphia ChurChmen were only four
points in the rear. They continued to
keep within hailng distance of the ship
league champions until within five min
utes of the close of the game. when
HYDE and Engle contributed five field
goals between them and ran up the
score
Naval's Fine Defense
The fine defense Of naval training
Pusey & Jones. Throughout the entire
forty minutes of play the opponents of
the sailor boys only made four field
goals. Three of these were tossed
through the net by Eddie Trautwein and
his running mate at forward. Traut-
vein, was shut out by Mulhern. The
latter played one of the best games of
his career.
Parker, at center. also had all the
better of Watson. The big fellow had
the natural advantage in height and
invariably got the tap against his
smaller opponent. Parker contributed
four baskets to his teams total of four
teen. At fou-goal shooting the losers
MADE nearly all their points. They
/ Gagged twenty-five free tosses out OF
/ thirty-five attempts as against eight
! out of seventeen for Poth's five. This
! is one of the Naval teams weak points.
