New Castle Wins
Initial Game OF
Series 47 To II
Victors Paced By w. Snyder
With 16 Points
By Martin T. Weprich,

Homestead. Pa, March IA
Last Saturday on the Westside
Y. M. G. A. Basketball court the
New Castle Terriers and the
Cleveland East I7inancicrs met in
the first of the games that are to
decide the championship of the
basketball league. The game in
itself proved to be a most inter-
esting exhibition of basketball as
played by two stellar groups of
athletes with the Cleveland East
team holding the edge in the car
lier portions Of the contest only
to falter after their mainstay.
Gable was injured and removed
from the game with badlr cut
eye.
The FlnanClers spurted into the
lead with only one minute of play
gone and maintained this lead
thruout the entire first half, which
ended 1913 in favor of the East
aggregation. -
In the first quarter the East
teams passing and defense work
was f1awless until the in jury of
Frank Gable which necessitaed
his removal from the contest.
The New Castle team was alert
and readilp took advantage of the
poor spirits of their opponents
and began a fusillade of shots at
the hood which whitfield the lead
down to one point at half time.
During the third quarter the
lead which was taken bp the
champions of last pear was at all
time very mulh i ndoubt as first
one team then the other would
score to keep the score close. In
the final quarter the New Castle
boys really thrned on the heat
and left no doubt in the minds OF
any Of the spectators as to which
team would ultimately win.
The final whistle was drowned

There are two ways of getting
into play-offs and West used the
second way by playing the old

llminary game and drubbing
them to the time Of 27-22. After
the game was over the old men
decided that those added attrac-

did lose the game for them, so
they got in bunch and marched
into the steam room where the

Cleveland East News
By Schnitz

If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you think you'd like to win but you
can't.
If you think you will lose, you have lost
For out in this world you'll find
Success befins with a fellows will -
It's all in the state of mind.
Full many a race is lost,
Err even a race is run,
And even a coward fails
Err even his works begun
Think big and your deeds will grow,
Think small and you'll fall behind;
Think that you can and you will -
It's all in the state of mind.
If you think you're out classed you are
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You ever can win a prize.
Life's battle does mt always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the fellow who thinks he can!

Cleveland, O.. March l4-Have
you ever asked this question ::
what mapes man a great ath-
lete" - not his obvious physi-
cal attributes, for all big, fast,
keen man are not great athletes.
There is more intangible some
thing "a state of mind. All great
athletes are possessed of an over
whelming ego which varies in di-
rect ratio to their ability. Babe
Roth had it, he was utterly conf
dent. He wanted to be top man,
and because he believed in him
helf, he almost invariably was.
To win, you must possess the
will ii win. No saying is more
true than: confidence is half the
victory" Nothing is impossible
once you have decided - can
| will! .".
