Philadelphia's Warriors put on
a blazing finish last night to defeat
the Washington Capitols in Ma
tional Basketball Association game
before 1872 spectators at Uline
Arena, $3.50.
1t was Washington's fourth loss
in row and Philadelphia's first
victory over the Caps in five starts.
Leo Mogus, normally fair ball
player, was clutch man for the
Warriors in the stretch last night.
The towering forward hit for 20
points. and reserved most of his
scoring for the last period squirt.
The Caps were playing without
the services of Bones Mckinney,
who was resting a broken left
hand on the bench. They used
only eight players most of the way,
sending Rookie John Dillon into
the game only after the issue had
been settled.
Warrior Coach Eddie Gottlieb
announced he was playing the
game under protest after techni-
cal foul had been called against
him early in the third period, but
since his team won he will not
press the complaint.
The teams exchanged the lead
several times in the first quarter.

Altogether Tech now has won
eight cage championships since
the series started in 1917 and this
was the third under Coach Dutch
Usilaner.
Black-haired Tony Sgro was the
stal for Mckinley. His eight field
goals, mostly one-hand push shots,
and four fouls gave him a 20
point total for the afternoons in
dividual high. Also he played a
fast and smart floor game to spark
the Maroons. Likewise very help
full was the work of Techs two
tall boys. Tom Megill and Richie
Gaskell, who between them, just
about controlled the blackboard.
Center Ken Atchinson was East

Lewis, who also has bowling
alley interests in Gastonia, N. c.,
was offered a $4,000 contract for
1850 after batting .245 last year.
He termed that salary slice an
"amputation" at the time, but
later wrote Griffith an apology.
I'VE wouldn't have had any
trouble getting together on
money" Griffith said. "At the
end of last season, Buddy walked
into my Office. told me he realized
he had bad year and for me to
send him any sort of a contract
and he'd sign it. I merely wrote
in $4,000 as a tentative figure"
No Trouble Over Salary.
Griffith displayed correspond

former Army pilot expressed sat

him.

1948 due to an ailing back and
the pressure Of business. He re-

Buddy delivered 1863 hits in
his major league career and was
seventh in that respect among
active American Leaguers. He is
topped only by Luke Appling,
Wally Moses. Joe DiMaggio, Bobby
Doerr. Johnny Mize and Lou Bou-
dreau. He was named to al!-star
squads in 1898 and 1947.
Lewis broke in with the Mats as
an 18-year-old third baseman, but
switched to the ourfield in 1941.
He missed nearly four years ,lue

351 flights across "The Hump"
A handsome bachelor, Lewis
was extremely popular with his
teammates and possessed one of

Despite his low average last sea-

hitter and it was in that capacity
that Griffith planned to use him
this year.
