COLUMBIA, 2S TO 26
Blue and White Finish Strong
and Forces Game Into
Extra Period.

New York University's basketball
team. conquerors Of Yale and holders of
several championships, came within an
ace of having its unblemished record
marred last night. Columbia's five, the
Blue and White. after getting away to a
miserable start, came back with a rush.
practically played the Violet off its feet
and forced the issue to an extra period.
The final score was: N. Y. u, 28; Co
lumbia, 26. With the victory went the
mythical metropolitan collegiate cham
pionship.
Both teams played the fastest kind OF
game. and not once during the forty
five minutes of action was there a Ietup
In the struggle. There were few tricks
OF the trade not known to the opposing
quintets. IT was simply a test of speed
against speed. shooting ability against
shooting ability and accuracy from the
foul line against its equal And here IL
was that Columbia fell down. Bob Pul.
leyn. who handled the free throws for
the Blue and White, could do no better
than cage three out of his eight attempts
In the first half, while Hatterer turned
in a perfect score of six out Of six
Pulleyn improved immeasurably in tho
done.
The final score showed that Hatterer
had sent fourteen out OF nineteen tries
whizzing through the net, while Pulleyr
had been successful in only twelve ou,
of nineteen. In field goals the quintets
were even with seven each.
Jimmy Mullen. playing his fourtf
game on a Columbia team, was the
outstanding star of the Columbia attack
just as Hatterer shone above all the
Violet players. Hattcrer accounted for
twenty of the victor's twenty-eight tai
lies. Mullen Gagged the ball from the
field on four occasions. while Watson
Pulleyn and Reilly each tailed once
Capt. Coolers sensational shot from
the middle of tho floor IN the extra
period, was really decisive Of tho contes,
and the only basket of the period.
In the extra period team play was
thrown to the winds and each quintet
took chances on long shots. N. Y IT,
proved to be the wearer OF the rabbit,
foot and Capt. Goeller's sensational
basket ended the game. Columbia tried
desperately to score with only thirty
seconds to so, but the violet's clos,
guarding rendered It impossible.
