were the fastest individual stars

Burch had to flash his deadliest
attack; the team work of the To-
cali was the best witnessed on
the Armory floor this winter. The
LegIonD lads played equally well, ,
both individually and collectively.
"Fritz" Marshall shared the
greatest number OF baskets, his
efforts being unstintingly second
ed by both his guards, Albert
Goslant and "Whitcy' Dumas.
Lucky" Fisk played a sort of row
ing forward, scooping up the big
ball, whenever it was loose, out
whiting the oppo ition with his
clever tactics, and tallying four
baskets. Burch was the same d.
recting genius of the attack and
defense Of the st. Johnsbury baS.
keteers.
The local mentor had his men
travelling at top speed all the
evening, htse,f Stacking pace, iMt
rather setting it. In fact the going
was considered so fast by the Wis
iting quintet that Captain Nels
Browne exercised his prerogatiye
for frequent rest periods. There
have been several pcppery CON
tests at the Arnory this season,
but for celerity, spirit, action,

of surface on the Armory court,
the game Thursday evening
stands forth in bold relief.

SOC paid admissions and in return
gave one of the clcaneat, most
sportsmanlike demonstration Of
guarding in big league style seen
on the local court in several now
moons. He was teamed with the
noted "LcW' Wachter, who was
playing basketball and was 4

Yuille and EaStburn carried the
fight into ti,e lair Of the locals
time and again, notWlthl landing
the Ioop-holeless kind of guarding
to which they were constantly
subjected 10 by Dumas and Cos
liant. Fans were led TO believe
that Goslant and Dumas were
demonstrating the sticking quail
ties Of some of the we'll known
brands of glue.
A lightning play that fairly
dazzIcd one with its brillan>,
was Yuille's sensational hot, IN
which "Gubby" McDermott was
the contributing factor in the frs
period. With the st. JohnSbury
defense pulled to one side of the
court, "Gubby" saw an open door
before him. He dashed down the
floor. Like clock-work the local
baskcteers arrayed themselves in
his path disputing his further ad-
