ELY TRIMS UP MORGAN PARK
TOWER TAKES GAME ON
HOME FLOOR.

The Morgan Park boys were
here Friday and Saturday evenings
and were trimmed up to a fare-ye-
well by the Ely aggregation of
ball tossers and basketshooters.
Friday evenings game was in the
nature Of a walk-away for the Ely
team, so much so that the audience
was somewhat disappointed and
when the game Saturday evening
was played only a small audience
was present. However here is
where they fooled themselves, the
boys from the Steel City staged a
comeback on Saturday that bore
all the ear-marks of a real basket
ball contest and our boys were
forced to go some in order to an
mex the winning scores. Those
who saw Saturdays game claim it
the fastest played on the Ely floor
this season and the winning bas-
kets were Gagged by Ely only dur
ing the last minutes of play and
after a very decided squirt The
scores of the two games is given !:

A game between the Ely and
Gilbert Second Teams and the
Tower and Ely City Teams is in
prospect for the near future as a
benefit game for some worthy OBJ
ject. The boys claim the defeat
at Tower was due to the small gym
and the lowness of the ceiling.
while the Tower boys maintain that
their team is the best. It is to be
hoped that the game spoken of
here will be played on this basis
and fill the auditorium to standing
