NAVY TAKES FlASHY
BATTLE WITH N. Y.U.

ANNAPOLIS. Md. January "a
brilliantly played and finely contested
game Of basket ball here today ended
in a victory by the Naval Academy
Ave over New York University. 27 to
81. The margin Of victory was Sc
cured in the last four minutes Of the
game.
The teams played a snappy brand OF
basket ball. showing much speed and
aggressiveness and excellent passing
and general team play. The defense
Of both teams. however, was 50 keen
and determined that the scoring was
slow, and the chance for every goal
was the result of hard fighting and
clever passing.
For the first time this year the
Navy adhered to the plan of working
for close shots.
Another change was the trying Of

at center. He has more height than
the others used in that position this
season and gave a good account Of
himself. His three field goals tied
Craig for honors in this line.
The fast playing and alienation of
lead kept the spectators on their toes
during the whole game.
fpo-,,n ard SUMMARY
Evening star., 1926-01-10

Oh pounds ana lllpeue progress.
Even the professional players them
selves have never played under such
fast conditions. Although nearly all
of them have competed in cages up
North, the games then were played
under the old professional rules, al
lowing the two handed dribble and
giving opportunity for stalling. The
game tonight will be played as usual
under the intercollegiate rules, no
stalling being possible.
Ed Lynch and Tillie Noss of the De-
troit team are the players who will
hold the limelight. Lynch. one OF
te greatest college players two years
ago with Catholic University, is
pressing Voss for popularity in De.
troit. Voss is considered by many as
the greatest center in the game.
Lynch will be rendered exceptional

tirely different from that of the
past two months, where the general
body of stocks was carried down be-
cause of the belief that the high level
of prices had overestimated actual
business conditions.
The short interest in Land Co. of
Florida found that ii had to bid
the price up another 2 points to 80
in order to cover In at least part of
it's obligations. A similar rise in
Wilson & Co. to 10 reflected improve
ment in the business of the company
during the first month of the year,
which was a highly favorable COM
parison with the results of the last

Little of importance happened in

consolidation of two prominent COM
panies had been abandoned might
