YANKEES TOO MUCH
FOR C. W. TOSSERS
Hatchetites Play Well, But
0utclassed by District
Champions, 50-25.

u ASKETERS of George Wash
n ington University last night
suffered their first defeat of
the season, when they tackled the
Yankees, District independent cham
pions, in the court at Central Coli
scum.
The college tossers played the
same style of game that had carried
them to victory twice before. but
their cross-court attack and flve-man
defense never feazed the Yanks. The
latter opened the contest with plenty
of dash and held to their speedy pace
all the way to a 50-to-25 triumph.
There never was a time when
George Washington really had q
chance to overhaul the clubmen. The
Yankees got away to 6-to-o lead.
and at half-time had increased their
advantage to 20 to Is. Early in the
second half the college team showed
some signs OF coming to life and
making matters interesting for their
opponents, but tho rally was short
lived.
The Yankees kept play in George
Washington's territory the greater
part of the fray. and had they been
bit more careful in shooting would
have handed the Hatchetites a more
decisive defeat. Time and. time again,
George Washington basket, only to
throw away points by slipshod toss
ing for the goal. The city champions
passing was f1ashy and well-timed,
and their defensive tactics quite eff
fective against the back court play
frequently resorted to by the HatcheS
tites
Had it not been for the keen eye
of Gosnell, George Washington would
have Jared worse than it did. This
forward took advantage of every one
of the few opportunities he had to
pocket the ball. Springston, too,
played valiantly for the Hatchetites,
both as forward and guard
The outstanding player OF the
center in the first half he outjuInped
his opponent and was agile enough
to break UP many Hatchetite attacks
and score six goals from scrimmage.
Heddons and Ingley also performed
we'll for the victors. The latter con-
trlbuted several spectacular long
shots for goals in the last few min
utes of the fray.

In the first half the Marines played
close guarding game and eleven min

thrown a goal from the floor. In fact, SO
well did each quint perform on defense
that the first half wound up with the

Marines and only six of the twelve
points We're represented in goals from
the floor.
When the two teams took the floor at
the beginning, the second half it seemed
that there was going to be repetition
of the close play, but the Blue and
Gray got going better in every way and
especially i'll the accuracy of its han

well did the Blue and Gray play on de-

was accomplished through the excep-

in the contest and livened up proceed
