Officials Do Good Work.

Both games were hard played and
almost as clean as basket ball can be.
Officials got busy right at the begin
ming and called everything in sight
and there was never minute when
they did not hold the contest easily
in hand. Morse and Hughes, who had
charge of the contests, refereed and
umpired, and vice versa. in way that
left not the least loophole for crit
icism.

To Have Bearing on Race.
In its effect on the American League
pennant race this is liable TO figure
as one OF the most important deals
l OF the year and furnishes further evil
dence of Comics determination to
nave ball club that will be at least
a factor in the race, and a mighty
powerful factor if the pitching stan
produces.
Giving three players. including a
man OF Gardner's caiiber, for one
may not appear good business. but in
this case Connie is believed to have
executed masterful stroke that was
possible only because Roth could NOT
get along with Lee Fonl. manager of
the Indians, and one or the other had
TO go.
Looking at it from the Cleveland
aspect, President Dunn was forced to
part with his manager or his star

abundance of hard hitting fielders. Any

Second Halves Different.

The second half was far different
in each game. Gallaudet began

However, the Kendall Green men were
never able 10 distance their rivals
and fought nip and tuck" until the
end of the period. first one team be-
then the other Shortly before the
end Gailaudet got a goal from foul
and a field goal in rapid succession
and went three points ahead. George
Washington made a field goal after
that and Witt came near ringing a
goal from the floor but the ball hit
the rim of the basket and dropped
outside. A few seconds after Witt
missed his long shot in a final at
tempt to tie up the game. the. gong
rang, ending the play.
Catholic University looked far diff
ferent in the second half to what it
was in the opening. The Brookland
players got going, and O'Brien. espe-
cially, developed streak of scoring
which made il appear that all he had
to do to cage the ball was to shoot it
in the general direction of the basket.
O'Brien threw seven goals from the
floor in the second half, Goeble got
one. McDonough, two; Glascott and
Kendrick, one each. In contrast TO
that, State made only one point in
the final half, not being able to get a
goal from the floor; in fact, the Mary
landers- obtained very few shots in
that part of the contest.
