All Americans" In FiUe
That Is To Meet Grace

Followers OF collegiate basketball
do not need to be told 81 the GLASS OF
the Crescent Athletic Club team that
viii oppose the Grace quintet OF VIII
minglon on next Monday night at the
Friends School gymnasium. How
ever. there may be some who do nt.t
realize that included in the lineup
are three men who have been se-
lected as men Of All-American cali
bre during their collegiate career.
Kinney. OF Yale. forward in
1916-17. was the leading point-get-
ter of the intercollegiate League,
with 43 goals from the field and "A
goals from the penalty mark His
total number OF points. 1870. is the
highest ever made in the ranks OF
the intercollegiate League. Kinney
made a remarkable record in that
year, in that he played in every
minute OF every game. He was
chosen as a forward on the ALI
American team OF that year Par
mele, OF Princeton. another forward
OF the squad. during the same sea-
son. scored 2S goals from the field
and fouls ont OF chances.
Stannard of Pennsylvania. an
other man who plays the forward
position for the team. has had three
years varsity experience. in two Of
which he was the unanimous choice
for the All-American team. During
the season OF 191S-19. he was the
leading field goal thrower OF the
league.
Nicklas, who halls from st. Johns
of Brooklyn, with not quite so much
Of national reputation. but one
who is we'll known about New York
The fact that he can stand the pace
set by Kinney. Parmele and Stan,
nard stamps him as an excellen
player.
These men win form the back
bone OF the attack of the vfsitinl
quintet. and win give Grace guards
Baylis. J. Garvin and Longacre

that has appeared here in years, tn

The schedule appearing in the pa
pers during the early part Of the

correct schedule appears above. The
most important OF these games is
the first OF the afternoon when
Grace will oppose West. Should the
Methodists win this battle, they will
be assured OF first position, hut
should they lose, their position will
be precarious as they will have only
a single game lead on West. The
