, Some Managers Receive Sura- monses, While Others Are Forced to Stop Games, ~ Notwithstanding the fact that bas- ketball pla exposed’ themselves to the danger of being summoned for violating the biue law, several teams engaged in contests yesterday after- loon and Contrary pectatio: of the nagers of basketball egutions received no- tices to appear in court and others Were forced iv discontinue the games. in Brooklyn, the managers of the Dodgers, Cody and Wilde, were given the little white slips, but the game in which their team participated was al- lowed to be continued. At the Central Opera House, however, the game in which the Manhattan Lassies were to meet the Winona Girls Quintet was stopped. The fans turned out in large num- bers, even under the conditions. Many evenin to ex- rames in Manhattan, Bronx and Brooklyn were witnessed by record crowds. H Po jave, where the Unity Caseys defeated the Bronx Hacs, had the biggest bunch of fol- lowers that it ever had. Prospect Hall in Brooklyn, scene of the battle be- tween the Brooklyn Dodgers and the St. James Triangles in the afternoon, end the Dodgers and Marnavilles in the night, filled to capacity. Rabbit Maranville's combination played one of the best games ever witnessed on the Brooklyn court at Prospect Hall. After subduing the St. James Triangles without very much difficulty by a score of 20 to 12, the home team expected to walk away with the Rabbit's outfit, but to do that was not so easy as the Dodgers thought it would be. As a matter of fact, with the score standing 16 to 14 in favor of Maranvilles at the end of the first half, Cody's boys had wo step very lively in order to avoid Wefeat. With the great playing of Joe Brennan, tne Brooklyn's crack guard and one of the best men holding down that position in the Eastern tates, the Dodgers managed to gain & victory. The winning tallies were made two minutes before the final whistle was blown. Roach, of the Maranville quintet, scored five baskets und his playing served as the main opposition for the victors. The line: ups for both teams: Brooklyn Dodg+ crs, Brennan, Norman,-Cooney, Cos- srove, "'pley and O'Brien, Maran- villes: Lelaney, Roach, Baker, Barger and Rabbit. In the afternoon game at Central Opera House, Frank Frisch’s Alle Stars scored ‘their third consecut victory by defeating the Brooklyn Whirlwinds to the tune of 21 to 18, Im the All Stars’ first game this sea- son the Whirlwinds carried off the honors. So the defeat of the latter team yesterday cvens matters up. Barney Sedran featured for the vic- tors, At Hoffman's Casino the Starling Grey five had no trouble at all in conquering the Delmar Lyceum ag- egation. The defeat of tho latter team was the first one this season, and its members should have put up a better battle notwithstanding the obvious superiority of the Starling Gre: The final score, which was 67 to 23, indicates a lack of defense m the part of the losers. Before the biggest crowd that ever witnessed a basketball game at Hunis Point Casino, the Unity Caseys de- feated the Bronx Hacs by a score of The game was close all the and both teams played better than usual, Bronx eparates emerged victors from the fray at London Casino wherein they met the St, Anselm Sep- arates, by & score of 49 to 26. 1 ‘victors started a fast series of passes during the second half which enabled them to keep a safe lead over their opponents.

Now for a deciding game between Frisch's Stars and Brooklyn Whirl- winds, OTHER GOSSIP. ‘Collegiate Big Five, under the management of Bob McNamara, has already won nine games this season out of as many contests. In view of the several basketball aggregations which go under the name of Collegi- ates, McNamara wishes to impress upon the basketball world that his team is the original Collegiate quin- tet and is made up of Benny Tucker, Lefty Gettel, Johnny Curley, Frank. Ziero and Stahly. Walter Mitchell, manager of the Peekskill Big Five, is particularly anxious to arrange a game between his team and the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Peekskill quintet seems to rec- ognize the Brooklyn team as one of the best, and for that reason is anx- ious to score a victory. If Mr. Cody of the Dodgers wifl communicate with Mr. Mitchell by calling Spring 1645, a good struggle may be ar- ranged. Jersey City Police Big Five intends to leave this vicinity in the near future on a tour of the Eastern States, during which games will be played with many of the leading mu- |nicipal teams of the various cities. The management of the bluecoats is janxious to book two or three games before the coppers start on their trip. Communicate with Lieut. Butterfield, No. 175 Omen Avenue, Jersey City.

Yes, he comes down to see-me once in a while He was here yesterday “Oh, I'm so happy here, with my chickens and my dogs. And then Mr. Kockefeller drops in once in awhile. I like to talk to him, for he always has a joke or two and it breaks the monotony. I'm just ‘Granny'’—an old plece of furniture—-and so 1 want to main.” And what about "Granny It’s nothing. She lives with ily,” and from the eggs she sells she 1s able to make ends meet comfort- ably. “Granny” doesn’t know It, but sometimes when chicken fecd is so high the bills are mysteriously re- duced. It makes her happy and she feels independent that she is paying her way. Then turning to Mr. De Revere she sald, “Won't you send me down some wood? I have an old friend who wants to come and see me, but ~ don’t want her to sleep in a cold room."” Mr, De Revere assured her that she would have the wood the same after- noon. And so “Granny” lives on in her little garden spot of the Fairyland, and she {s as happy as a child. Of course “Granny” can't “go to town.” That's something that Mr. Rockefeller hasn't overlooked. He has provided the Rev. Homer Nelson with a car to look ‘after his flock, and Mr. Nelson sees that "Granny"’ gets her food supplies and chicken feed and whatever little wants she may need.
