Poor Yort Wright with an alleged basketbal! team was sadly out of place on the basketball floor at Parish hall on Tuesday evening.when they met. or rather scrapped of a bowling ac- quaintance with the fast Crescent five of Taftville. The score at the final whistle was 70 to 8§ in, favor' of the Crescents. The soldiers were ap- parently in a daze and were unable to locate the hoop but three times during their forty minutes’ sojourn on the floor. Therball, however, was not in their possession very long at a time which undoubtedly acounts for their inability to cage any great num- ber of baskets. 5 The Taftville boys however were in their element and with clever pass work and accurate shooting piled up point after point. Belair had no heart for .the visitors at all and caged 13 baskets for a total of 26 points. The preliminary game between the Baltic Aces and the Taftville Bear- cats-was a whirlwind eompared to the feature affray. This game resulted in 2 30 to 10 victory for the Bearcats, It apparently was a Taftville ‘night at The scores: Crescents A. C. Parish hall Higgins, rf .. 3 0 g?r.
