MAURER COURT
TEAM FORMED
John Urbanski, Baseball Man.
ager, Also to Pilot Basket
ball Quintet

The Maurer Athletic Association,
through a successful eason on the
diamond, has decided 10 place a
representative combination on the
basketball court. John NJ. Urban
ski. who successfully piloted the
affairs of the diamond team, has
been elected manager of the bas-
ketball quintet.
This quintet will be known as
the Maurer five, and the lineup will
be chosen from Henry Simonsen,
Harry Reyder. William Fowler,
Andrew Simonsen and Charles Ko-
chek. There is no doubt that with
a little practice and some team
work, this combination will make a
good showing. There is no basket
ball court in Naurer, and all games
will have TO be played on oppon-
ent's court.
Manager Urhanski is now ready
to receive challenges in or out OF

ing that none of the teams now
playing are any too strong. He

Second Period Play
Turns Tide For Locals

A change of players in the last part
of the first session worked to ad-
vantage, particularly throughout the
last twenty minutes of play, and as
a result Manager /. Levine's Y. M.
II. A. basketball team was success
full in registering their first sched-
uled game of the season as a VIC
tory. The strong Rival, team of the
92nd street Y. NJ. ii. A. New York,
furnished the opposition in this game
the final score OF which was 2S to
Fl.
Throughout the greater part of the
first session the local quintet which
is coached by Rufus Allen. trailed
the New Workers. The change or
ave was made, and a rally by the
home team brought the combina-
ton up to within three points OF
their opponents, Is tc IL, at the n
of the first session.
Good all-round playing by Charley
Sher, Tottenville star, in the second
period resulted in the Y. NJ. IL. A.
team taking the lead. and after this
Levine's combination was not head
ed. In this session Sher made three
spectacular shots in rapid success
sion, and his stellar passing result
ed in at least two of the other field
goals in this half, being chalked up.
All of the men appeared in the
regalia of the local association team
showed to advantage in this game,
but the work of Sher stood out above
all others. He accounted for eight OF
his teams points, while Daitz ana
Newmark each contributed six points
70 the score. and Parker made five
pointers. =
Berger and Schwam were the
shining lights for the visiting quin-
tet. The first mentioned tosser ac-
counted for eleven of his teams
points. while Schwam, who occupied
the pivot position, made six counters.
The New York combination was real
" a strong team. too strong Tor an
opening attraction. The New YORK
bows passed in zeal style and all OF
the visitors were real shots. Their
ability to get rid of the ball In quick
time, featured their play.
The 92nd street association a
outplayed the locals during the nrst
period. Judging from the
made by the local team in the game
last night, Manager Levine's team
should make a real bid for county
rbampionship honors this season,
and also for the championship hon.
ors this season., and also for the
championship OF the Y. M. IL. "A.
league. There are eight real tos-
sers on the roster of the team, and
it Is safe to say that Levine's team
today could give any of the teams In
this county real opposition. y
"Pete" Hansen refereed the game
last night in real style. Coach Rob

games on the Y. M. III. A. court this
season, but due to the fact that he

opponents. In 1921 Centre changed
Its style of play entirely. Moran
having built up a reputation on the
forward pass used that style of play
as a threat against Harvard. The
Crimson players were coached to
constantly be on the alert for the
forward pass.
Then it didn't happen. Instead of
the pass, Moran used a running at
tack. Bucks off tackle and runs
around the end were his favorite
plays. With the Crimson line wide
open, expecting the forward pass,
the running attack proved most
successful.
Coach Moran simply brought
some of his baseball knowledge to
the gridiron. AS a National League
umpire, he has observed hat the
great pitchers were the fellows who
used their brains, the pitchers who
used a change of pace, mixed them
up so to speak. He also observed
that the team that constantly used
the same style didn't get very far.
1t was the club that mixed the hit
and run with the steal and sacri-
flee, and resorted to the waiting
game when the pitcher was wild,

that was hard to beat.
Charley Moran's Centre College
team defeated Harvard because it
treated them to the old change of
pace. The story is best told in
statement made by "Bo" McMillin
at the close of the game. McMillin,
by the way. made the touchdown
that beat Harvard.
Be Tells Why
Centre College beat Harvard by
crossing the Crimson players and
coaches. Last season We resorted
to open play almost entirely, played
a game that thrilled the spec
tators, but we were beaten. Gen.
tire has an eve more varied system
of open play this year, but We didn't
use it. The forward pass was our
threat play. Harvard was constant
ly expecting it. 1t opened up the
line. making a running attack most
effective"
Coach Moran in explaining the
victory, simply said: "Centre played
brainy football. Our line surprised
Harvard by its ability to hold. Our
running attack upset them because
the Harvard players were always
looking for a forward pass"
