At one point in the game the uproar of the crowd was so loud that nobody heard the shrill of the re- feree's whistle end a Midget player went down the floor to register a bas- ket that didn’t count. The Demons played a cool, heady game all the way through but had difficulty connecting with the hoop. Croonquist and Owens, particularly, had trouble finding the basket in the first half. ‘Tanberg with three field goals and @ brace of gift shots was high scorer for the game. Chuck Agnew, guard, was the second high point-getter for the Midgets with a pair of baskets from the floor and two gift shots.

Sors- dahl set the pace with three buckets while Croonquist and “Peck” Mc- Guinness each connected twice, the former getting both of his in the last half and McGuiness caging his pair before the rest period. Captain Billy Owens turned in his usual fine game at guard and regis- tered one field goal and three out of; of five trys from the free throw lin: Buddy Beall and Bud Kanz alte nated opposite Owens in the back court each hitting the hoop once from the floor.

Campbell Postpones CRONIN, RED SOX PILOT, THINKS NIGHT BASEBALL IS ‘BIG JOKE’ ‘Boy Manager’ Picks Six Clubs to Be in Thick of Ameri- can Pennant Race San Francisco, Feb. 11.—(?)—Joe lone thinks night baseball is a “big joke” and hopes the American League will never play it. The “boy manager” of the majors, whose sale to the Boston Red Sox by Washington a few monthes ago set tongues wagging over the biggest deal in the history of the game, is em- phatic in the belief that owl base- ball is a fad and nothing else. “Sure, I know it will draw,” said Cronin. “So would football on rol- ler skates, It still doesn’t make night baseball a good game, in my opinion.” Cronin sizes up the American League race this season as a “merry scramble”. with six clubs in the thick of it. Cleveland, Detroit, New York, Philadelphia, Washington and his own team can hoist the pennant next fall without causing any surprise, in his opinion. Washington, he said, may be handicapped by a pitching let down in the long run, but the Senators will be tough to beat because of their bal- ance. The Yankees may run into trouble because of outfield weakness, with Babe Ruth out, Earle Combs on the doubtful list and two untried players shouldering much of the bur- den. “But the Yanks will have great pitching, make no mistake about that,” he warned. If the land surface of the eartti were divided among the inhabitants, each person would receive approxi- mately 20 acres.
