HUNTINGTON WINS OVER RICHMOND; SCORE 41 TO 21 Local Quintet Crippled, Displays Real Basketball in First Half of Play. Th Huntington hih quintet defeated the crippled Richmond five on the Huntington floor, Saturday night by tho score of 41-21. The first few minutes of plsy did credit to any team and real basketball was displayed. The close guarding and shooting stopped when Van Allen, the plucky llttlo forward, was Injured. During the first few minutes of play neither side was able to locate the basket until Krieghbaum. the lanky center of the Huntington five, made two points followed immediately by five straight field goals by the Richmond men. Van Allen was injured in the first .half and, unable to play the game he started earlier in the evening, the Huntington five started to pile up the seore and in less than five minutes it had run it up from four points to 15. In the second half Harding was sent in to relieve Van Allen but the team played a loose game, playing on the offensive In a brilliant attempt to make more goals failed to stop the shooting of the Huntington five, and again suffered defeat at that team's hands. The KriegbaumCreager combination handled the ball with ease and ran up the big end of the score, to 41 points while the Huntington guards , held the Richmond forwards almost scoreless, making only twenty points that half. For the .Huntington team Kriegbaum made seven field goals, and Creager six. Simmons played the most consistent game for Richmond, making four field goals, twelve of the twenty-one points.

N WHOPS TOO TALL, DEFEAT "Y" FIVE In a curtain raiser Saturday night the West Side Whops defeated the Y. M. C. A. second basketball team by the score of 24-19. The "Y" second basketball aggregation started in the lead but the Whops had too many tall men who not only outweighed the "Y" seconds but could cut Jump them. Malnsfleld the mainstay of the "Y" team managed to hold the lead with his brilliant shooting and free throwing, rlaylng circles around the Whops the greater part of the evening. Mansfield was taken out and the "Y" boys worked hard to hold the lead they had gained but it was when Keisker went in at center that the team was able to come back. Keisker was soon taken out as he fouled three

The Detroit Tigers have shown that they will have no need of old Sam Crawford thla Beason, but the new3 hasn't discouraged Wahoo very much. Sam may be a pretty old bird and not the whirlwind he once was, but he Is still fit for useful service in fast company and more than a few cluba are aware of it. At the present writing Sam has offers from at least two major league clubs and more are in sight. Connie Mack believes that Crawford is just the boy to add strength and balance to his bunch of youngsters and the St. Louis Cardinals have also urged Sam to join them. Crawford says be would prefer to continue in tho American league and yet there's no doubt that he would go big and perhaps be a better drawing card in the National league, where he has never been seen. Just where Sam will sign he doesn't announce as yet, probably preferring to wait till all the offers are in and then he can pick the choicest. At any rate Sam will show the team he joins that he's not quite a dead one yet. Few hall players will receive an increase in their1 salaries this year, owing to the strenuous methods adopted Kf tho -inh nwnprs with a view to re ducing expenses on a wide scale, but? Jack Adams, the mimes" caicner, nas been offered a contract which calls for a raise of $1,000, and probably will lose no time in affixing bis signature to the document. Adams will be used by Pat Moran as first string catcher this year, replacing Bill Killifer. He is a clever backstop and a hard worker and well deserves the raise which has been given to him. A teammate of Adama's who is not so fortunate is Erskine Mayer. President William F. Baker was not satisfied with Maver's showing last year and it is said that the pitcher will have to submit to a cut of $2,500 in salary. Somebody declared the other day times and again the team's stock slumped. Mansfield led the scoring for the "Y" basketball team making eleven points of the nineteen. Edwards was the chief scorer making fifteen points for the West Side Whops. Score: Whops. Gls. Fls. Msd.

oratope, that a left-handed second baseman never had been seen in major league compapy. It is evident that Billy Greenwood, who played second base for the Baltimore American Association club more than thirty years ago, has been forgotten by some of the baseball historians. Greenwood was a left-handed thrower, yet he never was handicapped in making rapid infield plays. He compared favorably with other star second basemen in those days and also was a good batsman. Alec Gibson, a young pitcher drafted by the Senators, has joined the colors. He is the seventh member of that team to enter the bigger game. Jack Dempsey's decisive victory over Carl Morris will cause the newcomer to be taken more seriously in the future. Dempsey is not only a good hitter, but he has more speed than the average big fellow, and it is speed that most of the heavyweights lack. He now is in line for a match with Fred Fulton and there are many who will back him to beat the timid plasterer. Dempsey is a 200 pounder and has youth in his favor. He is twenty-two years old and should go on Improving for the next four or five years Although thirty-five years old, Clifford Cravath, the Phillies' heavy bitting outfielder, is still able to keep peace with the younger men. The Braves will take six outfielders south this spring. They are Rebg, Powell, Kelley, Wickland, Massey and Bailey. Fred Snodgrass, the former Giant, has announced his retirement from baseball. Last summer he was with the Vernon club of the Pacific Coast league. RIVER RISING RAPIDLY TOLEDO, O., Feb. IS. The Maumee river, 13 feet above normal, began to rise here again Saturday.

"Y" FIVE DEFEATS SOLDIER TEAM IN FAST GAME The Y. M. C. A. basketball five in a whirlwind game Saturday night trimmed the Company I basketball aggregation, 65-18. The game was fast and inclined to be rough. With Parker at center gaining the tip off, placing the ball in the hands of E. Porter and C. Porter and then by speedy passing located the basket for two points for the "Y" basketballers. The soldiers were unable to 6top the "Y" basketballers. The soldiers wero unable to stop the "Y" combination and the first few minutes of play the "Y" team had the game cftiched. E. Porter led the scoring for the "Y" aggregation making 26 points for the team, enough points alone to defeat the soldiers. The soldiers were far older and more experienced men but had been practicing on a very small floor so were at a loss on the "Y" floor. C. Porter started the scoring, followed immediately by three from Parker and two from E. Porter, and from then on the "Y" scored at will while the guards kept the Fort Ben Cor. 12th
