over In Fast Game
Continued from Page One
FIRST PERIOD

Earl Thomson was the first to
send the big sphere into the mesh
IS. His shot came as the result of
a technical foul. Albert Goslant
darted loose from the field, and
headed down toward his basket.
He turned just in time to receive
a Icing forward pass from Curley
Buns. Eluding Gubby McDermott
who loomed up like a giant in front
OF him, Goslant tossed in the first
field goal of the evening and the
crowd went wild.
There was every indication of a
nip and tuck contest as the quin-
tets lined up again for another
face-off. Curley Burns continued
his follow-up shots that he display
ell to such marked advantage in
his first game here. He chased the
bounding sphere all the way down
the court and eased in st. Johns
buys second field goal. The
former Troy, n. Y. basketeer had
passed to Marshall who miscued.
In & tWinkling Burns was on top of
the ball and sent it clearly through
III" meshes.
Ackey, fouled by Whitley Dumas,
arched in a goal from foul. All
of the visitors displayed marked
ability in curving the big leather
bail into the laces. Time out was
called by Company d with the
score 4 to 3 in their favor.
Yuille, hot in pursuit of n pos
sible rebound of a long shot by
Thomson, got possession of the
ball and sent it trickling through
the hammock. Thomson had secur-
ed the sphere when a pass from
Dumas had gone awry. Wally
Kopf, who surprised all by his abil-
ity to cavort on the court, wove
his way in and out among the bas-
ketcers and finally cut loose a long
shot from the side, the ball slap
ping up against the blackboard
and bounding back neatly into the
mcShes. With the last two field
goals, Henover plunged into a tenn
porury Lead TO 4.
Time out was called by Hanover
after Ackey had received d blow
on the head which put him out of
the play for a short time. With
both u%uintets once more in full
tilJ, Whitley Dumas drove into the
laccs one of his long HIGH arches
for which he became famous last
year. Ackey and Dumas fouled
each other and each negotiated he
goal from foul. As the period drew
to . close, Lucky Fisk tailed a
single handed shot from the side
the court. It brought roars of
applause. The score was now 10 20
S in favor Of Company D.. Yuille's
furious dribble and clean shot into
the hoop would have knotted the
score hut the gong sounded before
has offering had sunk into the
hammock.
Second Period
A. the second period got under
way, Thomson fouled Burns, the
SCaletown leader. Curley tailed
the free throw. Gubby McDermott
Wa also called for a slight mis-
demeanor on Fisk and the latter
a moment on the foul mark
to arch in the extra point.
Curley Burns played like a whirl-
winG in this stanza. His rushes
down the court and his brilliant
hack field play, coupled with his
fnc leadership, featured and
brought the crowd to its feet. He
followed another shot all the way
to the edge of the basket and then
punched it in before a hostile play
ar could lay his hands on it.
like a flash he shot the bail
to Goslant. The latter snapped it
back to him and in a continuity Of
