THE STAMFORDS

Visitors Lost by Score.of 24
to 23—Battery C Beats
I-Iiltons of Stamford.

In one of the best basketball games
of the season, the Norwaik Big Five
defeated the Stamford Separates by

othe score of 24.23. In the preliminary
game the Battery C five defeated the

 

 

Hilton team. also of Stamford. fly the

score of 41-18.
The main game was hard fought
from start to finish. and it was either
team's game up until the final whistle
blew. This was the second game of the
season between these two teams. in
the first game the Lock City five de-
feated the local outfit by 1 point. The
Big Five played one of the best games
of the season. and their brilliant team
work and floor play seem to baffle the
Stamford team at times. The first half
was nip and tuck all of the way. and
at the end of this period the Stamford
team was leading. by the score of 16.
15. During the second half of the
game the local team managed to get a
slight lead and then the Separates
came back and went into the lead by
one point. With but a few seconds to
play. Guarnieri of the local team took
the ball down the floor and tossed in a
neat basket. which put the loacl team
in the load by the score of 24-23,
which lead they held until the final
whistle blew. ending the game. They
~were loudly cheered as they left the
floor by the large crowd of fans who
attended the games.

Eddie McMahon. who is captain of
this season's Fordham College basket-
ball team was in the line-up of the Big
Five last night. and played a fine
game. He Jumped center for the local
team and held Carlson. the Stamford
center to one point during the contest.

McMahon took the place of Ted
Brotherton, who is having a great deal
of trouble with his feet. and is taking
it easy for a few games. Mullen was
the leading scorer for the local team
with four baskets and two foul goals
for a total of ten points.

Paddy Maruke was the outstanding
star for the Lock City team. and
tossed in four field goals and one foul
for a. total of nine points. ”Saunders,
the other forward of the Stamford
team also played a fine game and made
three baskets.

The preliminary game was a walk-
over for the Battery C team. The local
team took the lead shortly after the
start of the contest and eonQued to
pile up the score during the remaind-
er of the contest. At the end or the
first half of the game the Battery
team was leading by the score of 20-4.

Brotherton and Rowland were the
outstanding stars for the local team.
Each of these players made eight bus-
kets. Bray made his first appearance
of the season with the Battery team
last night. and was sent in at right
guard by Coach Kjellander during the
second half of the game. He, played a
good game during the time that he
was in the contest. Clark and Cost-
man were the star. for the Hilton
team. both of these players rustled the
netting three times. and Oostman also
shot in one foul goal. .,

It is planned to bring the Big Five
and the Separates together again this
season. as each team has won a game
todate. A large crowd was on hand to
witness the games last evening. After
the games dancing took place. Music
was furnished by Galls Orchestra.

Wanoma Girls
to Play Fast
Rambler Girls

Red Men's hall will be the scene of
'three fast basketball games on next.
Monday evening. The first game will
,bring together the VVanoma girls of
this city and the Rambler girls of
Bridgeport. This game will start at
7:15 sharp. In the second game of
the. evening the Separates will stuck
up against the Butchers. who will have
several fast high school players in
their line-up. besides Duffy. Christiano
‘aud Pimbell. In the main game of the
evening the Red Men Big Five will
take on the Rambler Big Five of
Bridgeport.

The main game should be a hum-
mer. as the Rambler team is con-
sidered one of the best teams in the
Park City. Eddie Schine; who also
plays with the Bridgeport Y. M. H. A..
and is.considered the best basketball
player ever turned out of Bridgeport.
high school. will be in.the line~up of
the Rambler team. Mello Burns will
also be in the line-u of the visitors.

Both of the preliminary games
should be hummers. The Butchers
are getting some of the best players in
the city to stack up against the Sep-
arates and are out to score a.win over
the Indians. The \Vanoma lassles will
have their hands full with the nam—
blcr'girls. as they have one of the best
‘glrls' teams in the country. Charlie
Mahoney will referee all of the games.

WINS BASKETBALL
TITLE FOR TEN
STRAIGHT YEARS

To win a. championship in any sport
is usually considered quite a note-
worthy feat. To turn the trick two or
three times in a row is the exception.
though it has been done. _

But to capture the same title 10
years in succession is indeed the un~
usual. It's something else again. For
it’s only accomplished at rare inter-
vals. '

However. that's just what the Kala—
mazoo (Mich) College basketball
team is expected to do ore the curtain
is rung down on the present season.
For not since 1918 has any other
school in the Michigan Inter-collegfatc
Athletic Association copped the
championship on the courts.

Year after year. Coach Ralph
Young's teams have led the rest of
the field. which includes the best of

 

 

 

 

 

well on the way to accomplishing the
stunt again.

Kalamazoo has always been noted
for its strong basketball quintcts. Last
year it finished runner-up in the na—
tional collegiate tourney at Indian-
apolis where it gained coulltry~wide
.fame by its prowess at the indoor
‘pasilme.

THE JA-PS'KNOCKED THE COVERS OFF HOYT'S OFFERINGS.

Only one game did the American
team of selected big leagucrs lose
while "basebailing in Japan" on their
recent international expedition. The
inside story of how the Japs chalked

up the winning score on that one is'

told today for The Sentinel fans by
Billy Evans of NBA Service-
BY “'AI'I‘E HOYT
Pitcher for the New York Americans
and “'orld Series Hcro.‘

“'e lost only one game on our trip,
being beaten. 9 to 2, by a team com-
posed of the very cream of the Japan-
ese players.

I u erstsnd this game was much
comli nted on in the States. We got
a report in Japan that because of the
defeat the trip was to be called. off.
and we were to be ordered back home
immediately. As I understand it we
were accused of having hurlesqued the
affair. and thereby instead of helping
the sport had injured it.

Since I pitched the game in which

we were defeated I am in a position to.

discuss that game. and I want to my

were members of the Yanks and

The weather had been a trifle cold
for about a week. I had .been doing
some coaching for one of the college

teams and had been pitching daily in ' ‘

batting practice for the collegians. I
had not figured on working the game
in which we suffered defeat.

In the very first inning my arm
troubled me slightly. I had been
pitching a great many curve balls in
batting practice. as the Japs are not

very familiar with that style of pitch— -

I pitched the entice game using noth—

bad inning. the second. I believe. in
which the Japs made six runs. In that
inning I allowed only two hits. but an
error by each member of the infield
enabled the Japs to secure a com-

bad inning the game was very closely
contested.

Docs trick stuff ill sport hurt one's

e
“'iliie Hoppe, famous billiard
champion, is convinced that trick stuff
is bad for any expert who desires to
excel in straight'play.
O 0 O
This fact was forcibly brought out
during a conversation I recently had
with Hoppe while his partner. Char-
ley Peterson. was performing many
uncanny feats with the ivories.
t O I

“Show me a shot I cannot make."
is Peterson's slogan. I have the word
of Hoppe that no one has ever figured
out a shot for which Peterson cannot
devise a way of executing. He can
make a so-called impossible shot in
billiadds. not in one way. but three or
four. ' '

Q 0 O .

I asked Hoppe if he did much trick
stuff.

"Very little.“ he replied. “I much
