The Winthrops. of Norwalk. made
their debut in the basketball world
last night by defeating the South Nor-
walk Y. M. C. A. team in what proved
to be a very close and interesting
game at the Town Assembly Hall.
Wall street. The result was ever in
doubt as both teams were in the lead
at various stages of the game.
The score at the end of the first half
was 6 to 6 and the final score was 10
to 8. The members of the Winthrop
team feel highly elated. for they have
been practicing for only a short time,
and hardly dared to hope for victory
in their first game.
To the Winthrops belong the honor
of the first goal. the sphere being toss-
ed into the, not by Al. Grinrod after a
couple of mlulltes of play. Arthur
Caney and Fletcher Williamson fol-
lowed with field goals for the Y. M. C.
A.‘s. making the score read in their
favor, 4 to 2. George C. Evarts then
evened the score lip by throwing a
field goal for the Winthrops. This
tie was broken a moment later by Wll~
llamson tossing one from the field for
the. Y. M. C. A. five and Evarts closed
the scoring of the half with a field
goal for thc Winthrops and tying it.
6 to G.
The Y. lii. C. A.'s started the second
half suspiciously as a result of anoth-
er field goal by Williamson. bllt this
proved their last tally. During the
remainder of the second half field
goals were thrown for the Winthrops
by Grlnrod anti George Cavanagh.

T. H. Foster. of the firm of Posts
Brothers. the owners of the greater
paart of Belle island. stated this morn-
ing that be was anticipating a very
successful season for the island, and
this means one very much in contrast
with last season. which Mr. Foster
says was the most unsuccessful in his
twenty-one years' experience on the
island.
This, Mr. Foster says. was due to .
the cold weather which prevailed dur-
lng the months of~July and August.
The weather did not affect the renting
of cottages .very seriously but did in-
terferc with those on the island. who
made a business of keeping summer
boarders. Last year. same of the pipe-
es which the year before had S vs.
successful season in this bnlin I.
were affected very seriously. "
Mr. Foster was asked if Jacob“.
mendorf would have charge of. the .
Belle island hotel again this summer ‘ .
and he replied that he could not!”
positively. as Mr. Elmendorf had no
lease on the place. . . 1 l”
