Proves Tight
Port Huron, Aeorns
Win ThriIIers as
Crosse Pointe Ousted

Royal Oaks Border Cities
League cagers, who have cashed
in free throws for two victories
over Mount Clemens this year,
will meet up with the Bathers
once again, as expected, in FRI
day nights second round of play
in the regional basketball COM
petition, Class A, at Ferndale.
Slated for a win, last night in
the opening play, the Acorn
crew barely came through with
a win over Lincoln Park, 1926,
in an overtime period. Other
games of the night saw Hazel
Park giving Port Huron a re-
sounding battle before finally
going down. 1929. The Hurons
had defeated the Oakland coun-
ty team twice during the regular
season.
CROSSE POINTE LOSES
One Border Cities five, Crosse
Pointe, went down to defeat,
falling before Pontiac, 1923. In
defeating the Millionaires, the
Pontiac team established them
selves as one of the tourney fav-
orites, insomuch Crosse Pointe
was rated nearly on a par with
Royal Oak, with whom they
split a pair of games this sea-
son.
Mount Clemens, bye winner
last night, takes on Royal Oak
at 8 o'clock tomorrow night with
Pontiac slated to play Port Hur-
on at 8.
Port Huron's thrilling victory
came in the last minute of play.
With the score tied at 29-all,
Jack Scott, ace forward for Ha-
Eel Park who cracked all Oak
land county scoring records this
year, fouled Bill Truschott of
Hazel Park. Truschott, with 40
seconds left to play. stepped up
in Horatio Alger fashion to win
the game by connecting with the
charity toss for the 1929 vic
tory.
TIGHT SQUEAK
The game was tight all the
way, Port Huron leading, 17-15,
at the half period. Royal Oaks
victory was an equally tight
squeak, the Acorns winning on
two free throws in the overtime.
A sensational average on long
shots kept the Lincoln Park
team ahead most of the game,
the Ferndale quintet holding a
1912 marking at the quarter.
With four minutes left to
play, Jack Shader was fouled
and scored pair of free throws
to tie the score at 23-up. The
regular game ended with the
score at 26-alike, and then Knox
and Kashkrep cinched the clash
on free throws.
Pantiac's cagers, controlling
both rebounds, stepped to an
early lead and were never
threatened by the Pointers. Pom
tiac held 1910 halftime lead.

5etory New
Huron (oath!

Rumor at the regional tourn.,
ament last night was that Frank
Secory, 26-year-e I d outfiielder
with the Cincinnati Reds had
been named football coach at
Port Huron. -
The athletic situation at the
Huron school has been in a dis
turbed stage for some time, how
ever. and frequent rumors have
named different coaches. Secory
was unavailable for comment
and was reported to be at the
Reds camp in Florida.
A 200-p0und Western State
graduate who batted 1929 for
Syracuse last year, Secory would
presumably not be available for
coaching until the latter part OF
September, should be take the
job.

OUT al Yale
Shoushnessy Wants
None Of Old Eli

LOS ANGELES, March 10
! P)-Count Clark Shaughnessy
out of the Yale football picture.
Stanford's great prepayment of
the T formation isn't having any
of Ellis Ivy traditions or alumni
factional squabbles, next fall or
any time.
He made that plain, and en-
phatically, as he returned from
t hi east, where he conferred
with Yale alumni.
Shaughnessy may 60 East but
get set for a shock.
The coach who led Stanford
to a Rose Bowl championship in
his first year on the West coast
and just missed with an injury
riddled squad last fall may
transfer to a university with lit
tie or no football reputation.
Such a position would give
Shaughnessy another chance to
pull a surprise such as he did
at Stanford in 1910 when he took
an oft beaten club and came up
with an all-victorious team.

Possible Tie
in City Cage
|LoopForeseen

With the possibility of q tie in
view, Fridays schedule for the
14th and final round of the city
basketball leagues has been ar
ranged to allow time for the
playoff, if necessary, tomorrow
night.
Three places in the playoffs
are definitely cinched, by the
Super Cleaners, Paganetti Lum-
Der and Business Men, but the
determination of the fourth de-
ponds on the outcome Of Friday
tits.
PLAYOFF POSSIBLE
The Merchants and Gray's are
now tied ano should both lose or
both win, a meeting of the two
would be required in an extra
clash tomorrow night following
their other tits. This is regard
ed as unlikely, however, and
the Merchants, who face the
Brown Bombers, are expected
to win, with Gray's taking q loss
at the hands of the Business
Men.
Two upsets, with Gray's and
the Bombers winning, would put
the Hamburger quintet in the
finals, which will start on Mon
day.
Gray's-Business Men game Is
slated for the opening spot, at
ITO, with the Merchants and
Bombers in the second tilt. The
Mount Clemens A. c. will meet
the Tigers in the third game. The
Super Cleaners-Paganetti tilt,
slated as the finale, has been
called off by mutual consent,
since it cannot effect the deter
mination of playoff teams.
