forwards played great guns
Smith and Davidson were
good for an average of four
field goals a game in every
tilt. which is a good percent
age for any forward. They
also played the floor well.
OF the other forwards In the
league Johnny Logan. who will I'M
douhtedly lead the individual scor-
ers when the final records are com
piled. and Henry woodcock. Of the
University Community team. were
the best. They scored n lot Of
points for their teams. but lacked
the experience and polish Of Smith
and Davidson.
Louie Ia Fray. Of Spaldings. and
Dick Frayn OF MacDougalls played
good ball all year. Ia Fray played
hard game. but lacked the speed
that featured hts play OF a couple
OF years ago In the prep school
league. Frayn didn't have chance
TO play all the games. but made
an impressive showing
Other Good Forward.

and Schubert. Of the Eiks; George

Of the Soldiers and Sailors club;
Doc Powers OF the X. OF C.:
Homer Rich. OF Brcwsters; Baccke.
Of Brewsters. and Ward Bell. OF the
II" Commuters deserve special men
ton. Bell would have been given
4 place on one OF the teams II he
had played five full games with the
Commuters. but as he didn't he has
to be left out.
Walter Wood. the speedy center
of the Y. NJ. c. A was easily the
best center man in the league. A
fine shot. a good passer and a
speedy floor man, Wood was the
whole ~" team and counted more
than half OF their points turnout
the year.
Dixon shivel.y. Of MacDougalis.
played a steady game. Dix" Is
POOR shot, but covers the floor well
and Is steady Neal Day, Of Spald-
fngs. played a good floor game. but
didn't shoot as well as he has done
in the past.
Classic shows Well
OF the other centers. Bert Classic,
Of Knights OF Columbus. played
good game at the end OF the year
He got late start. Big Sielk, OF
the Phoenix Mutuals did some phe'
kfft liant nHRFeg=
ssye enough for consideration. Hos
ley, Of Brewsters. also showed well
turnout the season at the pivot
position. All In all there was n
dearth of good center men In the
city this season.
Grover Kertis, Of MacDougalls.
and Tramp" Murphy. Of Phoenix
Mutuals, two big. Swapping fellows
would make an ideal pair OF guards
for any team I'm the Northwest.
Fast, hard playing and good defense
men. Kertls and Murphy stood out
as the best defense men Of the
season.
George Overton, Kcrtis' running
mate most Of the time. was right
on their heels In class and could
be shifted with either one without
weakening the team a bit. George
is faster than either Kertis or Muir
ply. but didn't play quite the tight
game that featured the first team
players work.
Harry Mooney, the midget guard
Of the X. Of C.. played a bang up
game all season. He was light,
but made up In speed and fisht
what he lacked in size. His man
was always closely checked and he
deserves credit for the game he
played.
Bolts Shot Well
Bolts, another MacDougall guard.
played good game. He In not
only a good defense man. but a
good shot. Tim Burke, the steady
plugger OF the Elks. was one OF the
best guards In the city. His 'ack
of speed is the only thing that keeps
him off the first squad. For stick.
