NEW LISDOM, 21-20 Caging two field coals la the last five minutes of plajr. the Centerrllle high school basketball quintet annexed a hart earned 21-20 victory orer the New Lisbon team, at New Lisbon, Friday evening. The home team was in the lead at the end of the first half by one point and ran up a three point leaf in the second half that was maintained nntil the last few minutes of play. Fisher, forward, was the individual point getter for Centerville, while Mason showed to best advantage for the losers. Centerville does cot play next Friday evening but meets the New Madison quintet Jan. 2.
New Paris Wallops Verona;
Winners Make 26 Points
Another victory was added to the already long list, when the Verona high school basketball team was de-
' feated by the New Paris quintet, at New Paris, Friday evening, 26 to 11. Verona counted upon its lengthy center, Vaughn, to win the game by his sensational playing. Although he did make 10 of the 11 points,, the Shaffer, Benson and Kessler combination ran up 26 points during the same period of time. Shaffer counted six of the New Paris total, Benson 13 and Kessler, 7. The New Paris seconds debeated the Verona seconds, 20 to 7. No Vacation for High School BaiketbcllTlayers : - At . least two workouts a week will be held by the Richmond high school
' ' basketball squad during the Christmas vacation.. These workouts will be held in the coliseum or the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium. Coach Fries left Friday evening $or his home in Wisconsin, but Clem Price will direct the squads. Considerable J improvement is discernible, and r with the "return of Captain Price to .the back guard position, slt will be a far different team that faces the Huntington quintet on Jan. 9, than the one that opposed Spiceland. Several changes may be made in the line-up,- as Coach Fries is not satisfied with, the showing of several men. Knowledge of the; fundamentals of the game seems to be lacking. " The game scheduled with the Ander- . . son-team for. Jan. 21; has been cancelled by the Anderson coach. Anderson men claims she has to play a return game with the team that flMed the place made vacant by the cancellation of an early season game, by Richmond. It is probable that a game will be scheduled with one of the learns of this district in place of the
Anderson game. Mllroy. Rushville and Hagerstown have quintet teams that are considered superior to .the Anderson team. ; A ; pessimlstio . outlook prevails in high school. Formerly the material was on hand for the coaches to pick from. This season the players will have to be developed.

the visitors caged two field goals that
put them in the lead. Newcastle soon gained the'upper hand and then: maintained its lead. A total of 23 personal fouls was called on the two teams,
Haynes being taken out of the New

Sherwood Mage
Eleven years with the Phillies and
still on deck. That entitles Sher
wood Maaee to nemtkm In thia
colyum. Magee is slated now for the
old -John can by the world s champion Reds. If Magee is turned loose It will be because Moran wants to start right away to season some youngsters to
replace his vets when necessary, for
Magee still has a few good years left
in his system.
Magee was born in Clarendon, Pa.,
in 1884. He broke Into the game at
Auentown, Pa., in 1903, and attracted the attention of the big league scouts right off the bat or glove. Not knowing much about Philadelphia he allowed the Phils to sign him and started In on what proved to be a long siege with them. He proved a consistent performer and a good hitter. He led the league in hitting one season. He was unfortunate enough to be traded to tho Boston Braves the year after they won the pennant and right at the beginning of the season in which the Phils startled the worm
by winning the flag. The Braves hong
the waiver sign on him in 1917 and the Reds paid the price for him. -
