GLOUSTER TONCATS ROUTED
BY THE NJ. & Nj. BIG REDS

Just about the flashiest outfit that
M~~& M. has ever encountered was
that of last Friday night when the
Glouster Tomcats played here.
While M. e NJ. won by the score of
1924, they had to fight every Sec
ond, and several times it looked like
the RED Tommies" from Glouster
would claw their way to victory.
The GlOuster boys are tall and
rangy, with a center that for the
most part was able to control the
tip-off, and send the ball with much
speed toward their basket. In the
first quarter Glouster missed many
shots, making but two baskets. How
ever, while not piling up many
points, they succeeded in putting
the scare into the locals, who had
chalked up but seven counters.
The next quarter was played nip
and tuck, with the score tied several
times, but never did Glouster get in
the lead, the quarter ending a tie
4 all. Sailing into the third period
it began to appear that the Big Reds
were soon going to be on easy street
They looped eight counters, while
But fast as had been the game thus
far, the fastest was yet to come.
Running true 10 feline form. while
those Tomcats were killed off in the
third quarter, they took on new
life. and it appeared several times
that the lead NJ & NJ had would not
be sufficient to carry them through
to the finish, however, it held out,
with four points to the good. Dur
ing this quarter Glouster garnered
nine counters and NJ & M, six.
While each and every one of the
local boys contributed his full share
TO the victory and there would be
about as different opinions as there
were players ton the team, as to the
one playing the best game in the
writer's opinion, it would go by o
slight margin to Cochran, who time
and again broke up Glousters plays
which were headed straight for the
iron loop. Glouster's fashiest play
er was +. Henery, center, who scor-
ed nine points, and the second in
line was c. Johnson, guard
This victory puts M. & NJ in first
standing in the league tilt Lineup:

The MurduckS

In our soldier section we told you
OF Jackson G.. Murdock, the soldier,
who died Nov. %, 1890. We may
repeat but we know you will over
look it when you stop and think of
how many folks we have written
about, and we have read the story
as it has appeared in the Democrat,
but we may forget. Anyway We
want to tell You that Mr.. Murduck
was one of the few buried here who
had served as county officials. We
tried to get in touch with member
of the family, but have failed. Mr..
Murduck served as sheriff 1t will
be remembered that Kincaid, a pris-
oner, escaped from the jail. We be-
lieve that only two prisoners have
ever escaped. Rogers, the other
man, was recaptured and sent to
the penitentiary, but, as we remem-
ber-Kincaid was never heard of.
