The management OF the tourna-
ment should hire '"Tubby" Smith Of
Woodruff, to perform every eve
ming. No one would miss game
if they could see him in action.
He's the jazziest performer Of them
all.
Imagine a 250-pound youth at
tempting to toe dance and you have
a picture of "Arbuckle" Smith. He
surely takes the sleeveless pajamas,
first throwing the ball into Erie's
basket and later attempting to
shoot a foul at the same loop.
When FATTY" wished to throw
the free toss into Erie's ring it took
the referee, umpire and all his
teammates to convince him that he
was wrong.
Watson, Morrison's center, was
just the opposite of Smith. Tall and
lean. he lowered above the other
players like a sideshow giant. He
and Smith would make good selec-
tons for the All-American side
show.
Quick, Watson, the needle!" is
what the Morrison fans should
yell.
Watson was a needle all right.

The crowd last night was better
than was expected for the first
session, especially as four out-of-
town teams were playing. About
500 were present.
There must not have been many
of the townsfolk left in Cambridge
from the looks of the delegation at
the game last night.
Cambridge was handicapped by
the absence of E. Anderson and
Sprouse. Sprouse has been i'll all
week and may get to play Satur-
day morning, but Anderson broke
his arch in practice and is out for
good.
There are rumors that two of the
Schultzes are sick and may not be
able to participate in the tourna-
ment. One of the famous brothers
is reported to have tainted twice in
practice.
The Erie squad that played
against Woodruff last night is one
of the lightest teams ever seen in
these parts. The average weight
was about 125 pounds.
There was not much Of a crowd
