fight last night. They failed to

"bloomer" basketeers swished the
net for two of their four baskets
and a free shot. But from then
on Convent dominated.
1ndividualistic playing of Cleo
Rosam probably caused the
Schools defeat. She failed to
pass at the proper moment on
numerous occasions and her Wild
shots at the basket repeatedly
gave the ball to the opposition.
Her deficiency in foul-shooting,
none out of seven, was major
factor in the loss.
CMI claimed only three field
goals in the entire game but sunk
five out of eight charity losses,

Five personal and five tech

CACf: LEAD
Full Game Ahead; Army,
Making Last Appear
ance OF Season, Led
Until Final Quarter

Making their last appearance
of the season, us. Army eager:
threw a scare in their game with
league-leading Lions Club las
night. For three quarters the
Doughboys held slim lead over
the favored Clubbers, and not
until the waning minutes of the
battle did they go down in de-
feat Plainly showing the ter,
rifle strain of the preceding pc
RODS, the Soldiers continually
lost the ball to the Lions in the
last quarter and their scant
margin quickly vanished.
The victory increased the
Civic cagers' lead to a full-game
over the High School and Ma
rines, Army finished its sched-
ule with nine losses, the high
est this year, and one triumph.
Soldier coach, Capt. r. H. Ry-
bolt, put his strongest team on
the floor last night for the first
time in weeks. The Doughboys
were out with the avowed inten-
ton of winding up the season
with a victory.
Getting off to a flying start,
Army racked up an '8-2 lead in
five minutes but the Lions end
ed the quarter just a point in
the rear, 1914. At intermission,
the Marching Men were up two
points, 27-25, and held their own
in the third round, 1897.
Mathews, Nelson and White,
the three members appearing
last night after a varying length
of absence, kept Army in the
running with their stellar play
ing. Nelson was high scorer,
sinking seven field goals, a num-
Der well-executed fly-aways, and
two free shots. Mathews and
White tied with 10 points each.
Contrary to his past style, AL
media was on the defense the
entire game, which accounted
for his failure to score. Nodine,
veteran of the club, was out
standing on the floor in what he
has termed the last contest of
my long career. Foster, sub
forward. recorded three baskets.
Knowles and Saunders, Lion
forwards. tied for scoring honors
ors with six field goals and
three charity losses each. Char
lie Smith, one of the leagues
leading all-around players, fol
lowed with IL points.
Clubbers committed eight per-
sonal fouls and Soldiers miscued
10 times In foul-shooting, the
Doughboys made good only
twice. both by Nelson, in 10 tries,
while the pacesetters sunk eight
out of Is.

MARYL AND MERRY GO-ROUND
Bv DREW PEARSON ---

Washington, d. c., April II. -
The ladies of Hagerstown last week
declared "all-out" war in favor of
Katherine Byron, and against any
one who seeks to oppose a Mary
land woman for Congress.
This ultimatum was Haunted in
the faces of male Democrats at a
special session of the WOman's
Democratic Organization Club of
Hagerstown, which boasts men,
bership of approximately 500.
1t was one of the most interest
ing meetings in club history. The
ladies present spent good part
of thei rhine throwing verbal
punches at the men in the neigh
boring counties, who, they claimed,
were waging an open fight against
Mrs. Byron. This fight, the ladies
charged, was based almost entirely
on the fact that the candidate is a
woman. The ladies also pointed
out that for years their club had
gone along with the Democratic
tickets composed entirely of men
candidates and that now when a
woman appears on the political
horizon, the men proceed to run
out on them.
The club meeting was not unlike
an old-fashioned political conven.
ton on a small scale. Spirited
endorsement speeches were deliv.
cred by the score. But there were
no arguments - everybody was for
Katherine. The meeting, too, gave
the women an opportunity of throw
ing daggers at the men for their
failure to appoint women in the
city and county governments.

ALL READY FOR The
Big EASTER SEASON
Important Festival Of
Christian Church; Mer-
chants Quite Busy

Easter this year comes. later in
the season than last year and it is
reasonable to predict that the wea-
Their will be more seasonable for
the Easter outfit Last year Eas-
ter was on March "a; this year, it
will be on April 13.
Hagerstown merchants have been
quite busy selling Easter toggery,
reporting good pre-Easter trade.
Merchants also have many toys
candies, ETC., for the Easter occa-
sion.
Churches of Hagerstown and the
county will render special programs
in keeping with the great religious
festival Of the Christian Church,
observed annually in commemora-
ton Of the resurrection of Jesus
Christ and occurring on Sunday,
the second day after Good Friday.
1t answers to the Jewish pasch or
Passover and most nations still
give it that name. In the Church
Of England certain dues are paid
to the parochial clergy by the par
ishoners at Easter as a compensa-
ton for personal tithes or the 1.-THE
fer personal labor.
Easter is movable festival It's
date has troubled the church and
calendars for centuries; however,
the Roman Church finally estab-
lished the Sunday after the full
moon following the vernal equinox
as Easter All Western Christian
churches now observe this day.

men throw bouquets to us prior to
the election, and how we love it;
with these bouquets come promises,
but after the votes are counted,
they forget the four or five hundred
votes placed in the ballot box by
this one club alone. We go along
with the organization tickets con-
sistently, but, when woman seeks
Office, a question is raised and the
men start to hedge"
Reluctance on the part of the
men to recognize the political
strength of the women of the
county clubs, with a total member
ship of about $500 no doubt will
see several women candidates in
the field in 1912. Many of the
clubs in Western Maryland were

counter is selling Ernest to the

become discouraged. Maybe
they'll catch him on the rebound.
The Senator is quite candidate

really doesn't do a bad job of it.
During his long career in the
