The game was a queer combination of
basketball, comer and modern foot-
ball and Malone and Boile of tho
Turners oer. perhaps its best expon‘

watt reported ill. However. Burke put
up a very good game and fitted in very
well with the rest of the/team in
passing and general floor work. The
name started off with a rush. the
Turners garnerinz two baskets in as
many minutes with but little .oppooi'
lion on the rim of the locals. Nor

attack but soon found their bearings
and followed wiih two in their own
right. A fifth basket was. scored (by
the Turners who then began to display
their wonderful knowledge of rough

this half save for a few fools, and it
ended with Sorwalk on the small end
of the 9 and 5 score. ’
Norwalk allowed in the F‘t-f‘nnd half
that they had decided to give the
Turnera atl good as they sent and it
sure did prove a battle royal, but Nor-
walk slowly pulled away from her on-
ponentn. The last few minutes were
entirely devoted to stalling. an art
in which Norwallt is decidedly profi-
clent.
Johnson had his famed “eagle" eye
with him last night counting six fouls
and two field goals. Barry pulled a
couple of dandy shots that helped it
whole lot. I
