**Auburn Citizen**- All-Syracuse Five To Play Here Tuesday

The game of the entire season for which fans of Auburn and Cayuga
County have been waiting will be staged next Tuesday evening on the State
Armory court when the All-Syracuse quint will stack up against the clever
Owasco Canoe Club five. The contest will bring to a fitting close a most
successful season for the O.C.C.. For over two months, local fandom has been
clamoring for the appearance of Wilbur Crisp’s star basketeers on a local court
and now that their wishes will be met it is no vain prognostication when the
management states that the Armory will be packed to capacity. In fact so much
interest is displayed in the combat that the seating capacity will have to be
greatly augmented. Champions of Central and Northern New York, Crisp’s combine
will come here with full strength for it is upon the outcome of their battle
with the Canoeists that their claims to the Central New York title will be most
firmly based. All-Syracuse trimmed the paddlers at Syracuse over two months ago
by eight points and the coming battle will be the second of the series of
three. It was only after such dickering and the offer of a large guarantee that
the Salt City champs were secured, but the local management stuck unwearyingly
to the job in its efforts to give the fans what they wanted and incidentally
have a whirling climax. Manager Crisp has agreed to bring along Tormey, Rafter,
Casey, Martin and all his stars. Weltman of Syracuse will be added to the local
array lineup. Ortner, coach of Cornell varsity and Risley of Utica will
alternate at referee and umpire. As a further attraction, the preliminary will
also be a champ affair in which the fast Panthers will play the First M.E.
Church quint which copped the pennant this season in the Sunday School League.
The prelim will get under way at 8:15 while the main battle will start one hour
later.

The All-Syracuse quintet won the final game of the season on the State
Armory court Thursday night by defeating the Bausch & Lomb five of
Rochester by a score of 22 to 13. The invaders fought from the opening whistle
to the finish, but could not penetrate the baffling defense of the Central New
York champions. Horn of Bausch & Lomb and Rafter of All-Syracuse starred.
Horn shot three baskets from the field, all of which were from different
angles. Rafter tossed the ball through the net twice and Crisp made 10 free
throws in 12 attempts. The game was fast throughout with the Bausch & Lomb
aggregation playing snappy, aggressive basketball. Toward the finish of the
game Rafter was struck under the eye by Engel and Simons replaced the local
star. Only a small crowd witnessed the contest.
