Eastern League Failure to Put Brooklyn Team on Schedule Makes Scheme Attractive. In view of the failure of Bastern League advocates to place a Brooklyn team on the league schedule, man- agers of Brooklyn teams which might have suffered as a direct re- sult are feeling much batter, But with the downfall of that scheme there arises another proposition which {is worthy of consideration. ‘That idea embraces the formation of metropolitan league to consist of basketball aggregations in and about New York City. Ed Wilde, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, offers an assertion that the carrying out of such an idea could be done with very little difficulty and, no doubt, in a successful manner from a viewpoint of sport as well as from the point of finances, John O'Brien of the Brooklyn Basketball Club and Bill Colgan, manager of Knights of St. Anthony team, are heartily in favor of the proposition. ‘There are several convincing argu- ments which tend to approve of the construction of a tetropolitan league. Primarily, in a league com- posed of teams in this city or in its immediate vicinity, the cost of trans- portation from one court to another would be sufficiently small to ‘be al- most negligible. The courts available are numerous in view of the sanction which many local managers have given to the plan. As a boost to the game, nothing could be better, be- cause all fads want, appreciate, and will fend their support to teams which give all that is in them to gain the desired result of all competition, namely, a status in the foremost ranks, T! is especially true when the competitors are neighbors. ‘The proposition will doubtless be welcomed by basketball fans and with some effort on the part of Mossrs. Wilde, Cody, O'Brien and Colgan, the game of basketball can be made more popular in New York City than any one tnterested in the game throughout the past few years could have ever expected it td be. Crescent Athletic Club Five of Brooklyn scored its eleventh con- secutive victory for this season in a contest staged at the Brooklyn court last night against Union College. ‘The home team combination found in the visitors one of the strongest op- ponents they have ever met, and it was only after a nip and tuck al fair that the Creacents gained a vie- tory in the last few minutes of play. ‘The score at tho end of the initial nalf was 11 to 9 in favor of the home team. From the start of the second session up to about two minutes be- fore the conclusion neither team acaded the other by more than two cr three points, The last minute offense of the Crescents, however, enabled them to gain a lead of seven the Junior Lightweight Title To-Night.
