In places the "ticker tape"
shower fell so heavily that paper
covered the sidewalks in layers.
All lower Manhattan was given
over entirely to the parade and
the festivities.
Streets were SO crowded not
a vehicle could move except those
of the Macarthur motorcade.
Tensed lines of police, aided by
wooden barriers, kept the crowds
back to allow at least parade
room.
General Macarthur, riding in the
car, sat OF the tonneau of an open
car waving and smiling.
Every inch of the way the
roars and cheers of the crowd
drowned out all other city sounds.
In the harbor, blocks from the
scene, vessels of every description
cut loose with their whistles and
sirens.
Overhead, an airplane wrote in
the clear, sunny sky the one huge
word, "Welcome."
"Wonderful! Wonderful" were
the only words the military hero
of two World Wars, and many
minor conflicts, could find during
the parade to express his feelings.
Riding with Macarthur was
Mayor Vincent Impelitteri. Mrs.
Macarthur and 13-year old Arthur
Macarthur were in a car behind,
with Mrs. Impelitteri.
Perhaps the greatest roar of all
came at City Hall from the humid
red thousand or more persons
damned there when the parade
turned off Broadway at 12:45 p
M. and moved into the City Hall
Park.
Fireworks exploded at this
electric moment. There was no
chance of even the MarArthur car
coming up to the front of City
Hall, so the approach was made
from the rear.
Many military uniforms glisten-
ed in the official grandstand. Of

wives, were represented.

The Caps moved half-game in
front of the idle Scranton Miners
in the fight for the American
Basketball League lead by defeat
ing Bridgeport. 1881, before a
small crowd at Uline Arena last
night.
The Washington team will try
to retain its grasp on first place
this afternoon when they BATHS
the Miners in Scranton. The Caps
have a 1913 record while Scran-
tons mark is 90.
Carl Braun, who did not arrive
from Fort Bragg, N. c., until mid
way of the second quarter,
dropped in 19 points to lead the
Caps with five field goals and nine
of II fouls. He showed in 13 points
in the third period.
Hertzberg In Form.
Braun, Hal Tidrick and Sonny
Hertzberg, making his Washing
ton debut, were the big three for
the Caps Hertzberg, back-court
wizard who used to amaze fans
when he performed with the old
Caps team of several years ago,
cut loose with his speciality, the
long tWo-handed set. and made
good six of them. Sonny wound
up with 13 points. one more than
Tidrick, who kept the Caps in the
game during the early going.
Actually, the Caps almost blew
iit, for they held a 10-point lead
with less than five minutes to go
and the Roesslers came within
two points of tie at one stage
near the end.
A pair of fouls by Joel Kauff-
man, and acouple of long sets by
Ray Dombroski and a field goal
and foul by Perry Del Purgatorio
brought Bridgeport within five
points, 1878. with less than two
minutes to go. Here John Wilson
was fouled by Braun and made it
good and. after the Jump, Kauff-
man grabbed the ball and sank it
from the side to make it 1881.
Rival Players Tangle.
Braun and Kaufman tangled
under the basket, but were sep
Iarated and shook hands. The up
shot was that Braun was awarded
ia free throw He sank it and a
few seconds later added another
just before time ran out.
Wilson, 6-foot-4 Negro. Matt

Iticularly bothersome to the Caps.
Wilson. who can hook and set
with deadly accuracy, and Kauff-

Kaufman made good on all six
Iof his foul shots to wind up high

After exchanging the lead time
and again. the Caps finally moved
out front to stay near the end
OF the third quarter on a set shot
by Tommy OKeefe and a push by
Dick Schnittker. Braun Clipped
in a field goal and three fouls
and Jim Slaughter added a field
goal to give the Caps a 60-45
period advantage.
The Caps stretched their mar
gin to 10 points in the fourth with
Hertzberg doing most of the dam
age. Herb Scherer, 6-foot-9 new
conner, aslo helped at this point
with a field goal and a couple
fouls.
With just two minutes to 60.
