THE basketball spotlight this evening
- will be focused on the Manufac-
turers' League. which plays at Yonah
Hall, 2727 Columbia avenue. One OF
the most important games of the second
series will be decided when Dobson
clashes with Baldwin. The former is
tied with Butterworth for the lead,
neither having lost a game, but Butter
worth has played two more games than
the Calhoun outfit.
These clubs staged play off to decide
the first half championship and BALDWIN
won. Dobson has not yet recovered
from the shock and has since been plan
ming revenge. There is no denying that
Dobson has improved since that time
and has every hope of putting the loco
motive builders completely out or the
second series, which a defeat Will DO.
There Is a possibility Of the series
terminating in triple tie II Bald"lh
trims Dobson. The Falls five will OPP
pose Butterworth next week, and a
defeat for the northeast quintet will

casion three clubs will be involved.

quite a different lineup from the last
meeting. Bob Calhoun will depend on
Lees and Trautwein forwards; Moore

| The Musical Fund manager has signed
/ the veteran. Winnie Kinkaidc. and he
will start the game against the Potters

| Skecters.
"Kinny" had been out of the game
for several years until signed at thu
start Of the season by Dave Bcnnis
and he has since played wonderful bal
for Germantown and staged real come
back. Kinkaide was released week ag'
by Germantown in order to reduce it
mayer list. He still has lots OF goo
basketball to display. and as he is al
ways in shape and never missing h
should prove valuable acquisition t
the Phils.

The Camden Skecters dropped l.
even terms with Germantown as a re

out and naturally "Kel" had diff
cult time in pleasing all hands, es
pecially the gallery gods who at
tend each week to see the home tear
win.
There were features about the mate

Last night they lined up the sam

cept thirty four minutes OF a contes
/ at Musical Fund Hall several year

I baskets on him in the same number @
i minutes and he voluntarily remove
E himself.
