DYKES TAKE CITY
 SERIES IN THRILLER
Tommy Murphy Leads Irresistible Rush in Last Few Minutes For
 One-Point Victory.

Led by sick man" in their final sensational rally, the DiMes defeated the Lyrics, Ss-55, in a hectic contest last night and captured the Hart ford city title. The victory gives the Speed Boys as good claim on the state championship as any team has, for the Dixies have won their series with every one of their opponents.
 Without the services of Captain Tommy Murphy, who was on the sldelines by doctors orders, the Dixies trailed at halftime by one point, and the Lyrics rattled off seven baskets in a row to start the second period, making It 2s.14 with seven minutes to play, Murphy could stand 1t no longer and went in at guard, later switching to forward. The Dixies rallied sharply and with minute and a half left were one. point behind, 30-29. Risky Feldman then dropped in five points, but in the final minute Hafner and Silver man tore through for field goals and then Murphy capped the sensational spurt by sinking three fouls, the last one dropping through as the final whistle blew.
 Siivern1an was high scorer for the Dixies, but it was Tommy Mufphy's ihdomitable spirit which pulled the team through, the captain making four fouls out of five tries in the winning rush. Feldman and Pite led the Lyric attack.
