E. CHICAGO CLUB TRIMS GARY 1 Tha basketball team ot the East Chicago Club wound up the season's play with a glorious -win ever the Oary Y" team, 26 to 17, in McKin'ey gym last Saturday evening:. The ge.ni was ons of the clam.-t ini 'astest that has ever beta setn on the local floor. Although the "Y" boys -T. at no tima in the lead they were always dangerous and scrappy until tl.e final whistle. Their weil-devol-p-rrl team work and lightning-like inmitigr was a pleasure to witness. Kveiy man on tlie club team was ia ex. -oil T.t form. Meyers derves especial men- ( cn for his stellar defensive play an3 Jones for his splendid floor work. Gates starred for the visitors. At half time the score stood 13 to 6 with the ilub holding the advantage. The Gary "Y" team have defeated the Gat, American Legioi squad once and this week are meeMng the magain in a seiies of thre games for city charrsi!c nship. The consensus of opinion among local fn-i.i was that the " Y' Kiuad represent the cleaneet and cleverest aggregation ever developed in Gary and Director Pinneo, who is -caching and managing the team yhouid be congratulated on the success of his team. In the earlier game of tiie evening tha Caiumet Junio-.i defeated the Oory "Y" lightweight team in a acraopy and Sntercstins same. This game marked the closo of a nucceasful season for th club five TUetr performance has been 4'ich that .iose followers of the sport are predicting championship lienors lor them tv?xt year. They expect to tar practice early In the fall and to buil.1 up a powerful aggregation by Tiianksciving time. "While the attendance at r ost of the games this winter was not as large as the ream merited, the en-j thusiasm was sufficient to demon- j strate that East Chicago can and w il support a team of larger than trr--ca.1 renown.

The game statted with Captain Cavaraugh of the Junior Moose cactng the first basket. Then the Cicoi - Baramies took a spurt and at tho end of the first quarter were leading witu e score of 10 to 4. From then on j to the end of th j first half the Junior Moose team fought to regain the lead j and at the end of the first half the js-iore ended 10 to 9 in favor of the Cicero Laramie. In the first quarter Bremmen of tha Cicero Laramies wa taken out on account of an injury to j his right foot and Kotus took his : place. I At the beginning of the second half ! the Junior Moose a-gain caged the first , basket and then the game see-saw l! first one getting the lead then the j other. At the end of the third quar- j ter the Junior Mcose were leading 13 j to 16 but the Cicero Laramies soon ! caught up. Williams of the Junior i Moose played an exceptionally gcd game as he had played In a full game just before this and being rot winded ( and In good training Coach Larrani "sent him In to take Hill's place and he caged two baskets as soon as he got !n. Matthews played a very poor i game on defensive but on the offensive he was fairly good, caging four bus- ; kets In the whole game. The game j was very exciting as neither team : Jinew whether they would win or r t ! as the Bcore see-aved so. But at the end of the last quarter the Cicero Laramies took another spurt and th ; final score was 31 to 26. i The Junior Moose-Dodgers game : was no more than a farce. At no tir of the game were the Junior Moose in danger as the sec re shows. The gam;? was a rough and tumble show eonducted by the I lodgers. Tlie Junior ; MOose teamwork was excellent and they played ringers around the Dodders w Vat ths Dodgers didn't ktu.w their own toen r rdhe rloor. Tho Dodg- ! ers only caged one floor basket and ! the other two points they gained on free throws. The score at the end of j the first half was CO to 2 in favor of j the Junior Moose. Borneo George cag- j ed the only floor basket for the Dodg- j ers in the last two minutes of play rhile Klempner shot the two free throws. Edgar of ths Junior Moose wade rourteen points for his squad while Frlobei g..r of the same squal made tweive points. Williams and Friedman played the floor work while Quinlan made thj Dodgers think there was a atone wall by their basket. Ths final score onded E.2 to 4. Lineup: Janiifr Moone. B. F. P.

ROOKLYN IS . COUNTING ON THE PENNANT

BY JACK VEIOCK (International N. S. Sporting Editor.) NKW YORK, March 14. "I expect to sec tlie Koblns .1y off with anotlior National league pennant." Wilbert Kohlnson, genial manager of the champion Brooklyns wired this prediction to the International News Service tod vy fron the New Orleans trslning camp. -n "All our players have the champions'tilp be o bui5:tiis D their bonnets,"'; Bobble continued, "and I'm with them, j If tiie holdouts. Wheat, and the othe.-a report, I believe we can finish on tap of the heap aguin. "1 look for a pretty smart pennant! race. New- York and Pittsburgh are going to be closer contenders than they were last year while Cincinnati, j Chicago and sit;, Louis arc sure to ot , st rong. Boston and the Phillies look ; like the weakest U-ams on paper. j "Anything we ifive on the Giants ; arid Pirates v, )U be in pitching strength, as I s i.j it. And that counta mighty heavy in a long, hard race. "My players uie a willing lot. They work as hard in u training camp as they (io in any other and they make things much easier for me. Last , spring 1 had tho best conditioned ball club in the leag-te and expect it lei j another tinel conditioned team into the coming r?ico' and get away to a: good start when the bell rfngfs. ,j "There will be no changes in our lineup if tiie n.ddouts come back.' However, I have Lamar and Nets to: replace Whe.it and Myers. I think I' have h corking ycung pitcher in Sam 1 Post. H pitched Portsmouth to the' Virginia league championship last ( year. He is a uig .speedy, tft hander : with a lot of fine curves. He tosses i overhand. I "Young Taylor should be useful be- j bind the b-it. He has a lot of peppir j and a good arm. He is also is fast on ! bis feet. Pfcff -. Cariore, Mamaak, ! Miljus, Mitchell and Mohart look bet - j ter than ever. We'll miss I Grimes it i he don't come lo.ck and we need' P.euther, too.
