that the only way of stopping
the Bnoolxlanders was by adopting
football tactics, Al least, il ap-
peared as though Dinty Hughes,
the husky George washington
guardt. thought this style OF play
would. break up the Catholic teams
: attack. 1t did for a while, but
IL cost the Hatchetites the services
Of Mr.. Hughes fifteen minutes
after the game got under way. He
committed four personal fouls dur
ing his short stay on the court.
