The c. c. n. Y. quintet was hard
pressed to defeat tho five of Muhlen-
berg College by score of 81 to 90 at
City College court last night. The
game was slow and unintercsting,
especially in the FIRST half, on account
of the numerous fouls committed by
both teams.
City College offended more than its
opponents in this respect in the first
half. and Knitting. the visiting center,
managed to convert these fouls into
points for his team. Two brilliant
goals by klauher however, enabled the
locals to lead in this period by score
of 5 to 10.
The local players were more careful
in the second period and prevented the
visitors from increasing their total by
close guarding. Klauher again featured
for City College, scoring four goals
