MELK0 GIVES HARMONY
CLUBS VERSION OF CASE

The following il a communication
from Manager Matthew Melko of
the Harmony basketball team set.
ting forth his side Of the case in
regard to the cancellation of the first
game of the series between his team
and the Dry Dock outht scheduled
to be played on the Parish House
court, Rector street. tonight.
The letter follows:
sporting Editor,
"Dear Sir:
with reference to the article In
Thursdays edition of the EVENING
NEWS. wherein Wesley Wilson.
marager of the Dry Dock five, states
that the proposed game between the
Dry Dock five and the Harmony FIVE.
scheduled for February IA, vas call
ed off because of the objection by
the Harmony five management to
the referee secured by the Dry Dock
and because the Harmony FIVE de-
sired to add another player to it's
eligible list.
Manager Wilson was the first to
suggest the securing of a neutral ref
cree to officiate at all the games of
The proposed series. For this Job he
suggested a certain New Brunswick
bi&A ~ mas ltNtI IcltI6tQ III IQl5
oity and of whom little has been
heard as a referee. Upon investiga-
ting this man, the Harmony man
agement objected to his being used,
not for personal reasons. but be-
u of his apparent lack of exper-
Ience as a referee. When the OBJ
Iections were presented, It was stated
that there should be no trouble in
occurring a satisfactory official, as 1t
should be possible to secure Frank
Hill, or a man of his type for this
purpose.
The question of the referee, how
ever, was not the big reason for the
calling off of the game. 1t was be.
cause the Harmony five added an
other name to its eligible list to
which Manager Wilson objected,
stating that the eligible list had al
ready been agreed upon. The man.
agement of the Harmony five does
not dictate who shall play on the
Dry Dock team nor does 1t desire
10 be dictated to.
"The Harmony five at the present
lime includes Fred Glochau, Warren
Hubbard, Wesley Hansen, Eugene
Parker. Eddie Regain, AL Smith and
Pete Hansen. and with this team the
Harmony five are out after the
county championship, and are will
Ing to play the Dry Dock five next
Monday night or at any other time
or place. The question of referee
can be very easily decided upon by
securing some permanent and neu.
trail official.
Trusting that the series will be
arranged in the early future, I am.
I'm sport,
M. r. MELKO,
Mgr. Harmony Five"
