Cowboys, Falcons
 in Feature Game

One of the best basketball at- fractions of the present campaign is expected to take place tomorrow night at the Brooklyn Y when the Falcons and Cowboys clash in the main game of twin bill. In the prelim listed to start at 7:30 the Town Plot Indies win meet the Speedboys. Dancing will follow the main attraction.
 After tomorrow's battle the list of undefeated teams will be cut down to two instead of three as it now stands. The Reymond Hillies now share the lead with the Fall cons and Cowboys and the winner of the tilt, will take updisputed claim of first place as the Hillies are not listed for action tonight. The winner tomorrow is very much in doubt as both teams have been playing classy ball but the Falcons have an edge over the lassoe artists in reserve material and this edge may prove to be the deciding point in tonight's game. George Berardi will referee both tilts and Direc- tor Mel Kelly expects all attend ance records to date to be shat tered for this attraction.
