Led by Beck, the boys doubled the New Jersey's total. . Taking an early lead, our basketeers quickly outdistanced the losers and built up a lead that was constantly increased. The Jerseyites went to the front in the first minute on a field goal, but that was the only time the Collegians from the other side of the river held the lead asthe Brooklynites quickly tallied a foul and several baskets. Beck and Fichman were the high scorers in the first canto with three field goals apiece. Berick and Berman contributed to Brooklyn's cause before the half ended with New Jersey Pharmacy way behind in the rut by 18 to 5. . . ' The second period found us content with our lead and allowed the losers to do some needed scoring themselves, in the meantime keeping enough in reserve. The boys uncorked a brilliant display of passing towards the end of the one-sided combat and compiled six points in succession. Berick's contribution in this spurt was way above the ordinary taking a pass on the dead run L ft fl' d , e y' lppe a. backhand pass that pulled all the spectators up on their feet in wild acclamation. 1 While Beck was the scoring star, Stein scintillated throughout, pl-Wino' -1 bril- liant floor game.

'6' 1 rr Flashing an attack in the first half that completely bewildered the Slow Town lads, the team scored its second league victory by a score of 31 to 23 and incidently avenged the setback meted out to us on our invasion. The smooth working offense, coupled with guarding, that held the Philadelphia players basketless for tgvegfe minutes, enabled our team to pull far ahead in the first half, which ended The Philadelphia players were helpless in the face of the Crimson and Gold defense for more than half of the opening period, and were held so well in check by Beck and Berick, that only three goals and five penalty throws were tallied in the half. Pascoe and Wasta accounted for the majority of the points. . A complete change of tactics was tried by the losers in the ,second period with slightly better results. Instead of trying to pass the ball up to the Brooklyn goal, the invaders resorted to long heaves and let the ball go from all angles and positions of the court. The new method of attack worked well enough to enable them to even the scoring honors, twelve points being tallied by each quintet. Fichman, Stein and Beck led the B. C. P. attack in the second half and while the offense was not as flashy as in the first session, we registered enough points to finish with a com- fortable lead. . While the scoring of Fichman and Beck featured our attack, the fine guarding of Stein and Berick was a big factor in the easy victory. These players choked off all Philadelphia's rushes for our basket and practically all of the Independence Citv's five points were as a result of pot shots . Wasta was the only player of the Philly aggregation to .show any distinction. REVENGED Philadelphia College of Pharmacy Brooklyn College of Pharmacy I G. F. P. - G. F. P.

It was a very impressive victory for the Crimson and Gold, since the Blue five rated as one of the leading teams in the league. . 1 . Nevertheless, the boys from Morningside Heights offered much sterner opposi- tion than the score indicates, threatening at all stages of the tussle. It was only in the final stages that our boys were able to draw away from a 21-15 tally in their favor. , .

BELOW its usual form, our basketeers found it impossible to win its last League game when they encountered the representatives of the Columbia College of Pharmacy on its .home court. The game was one of the dullest and hstless seen during the entire season Columbia's knowled e of its unusuall large court, and not its form, went a long way in deciding 'fhe ultimate victoiil The final score, 30 to 27 seems to indicate a stern game but on the contrary a good percentage of the score was compiled by points caged viathe free throw route. The boys made as total of 11 while their adversaries made good 8 of a possible 20 awarded to them. ' Confronted with the opportunity of tying the Philadelphia cohorts for the League lead and consequently forcing a playoff, the team played so loosely as to convey an impression that the responsibility that they labored under was far too great, while the Blue, who had nothing to gain or lose played in its usual strong antd ilod-like manner, thus considerably slowing down our vaunted whirlwind a ac . The Crimson and Gold found it difficult to score and it was onlyafter eight minutes of loosely played basketball that any one of the contestants tallied, as per usual it was our quintet that broke the ice and assumed a brief lead. - After another prolonged period of rough and tumble playing the New Yorkers slowly forged ahead. However, towards the end of the first canto a pretty exhibition was staged, the team, who was three points behind, made a belated rally and not only outplayed the Lion quintet, but succeeded in knotting the count 12-12 just as the whistle blew. On the resumption of play, the Brooklyn offense again went to pieces and although the brilliant individual efforts of Fichman, Stein and the guarding of Berick were above par, the rest of the team were unable to corroborate when the .needed tallies were required. Columbia found it a difficult task to carry the ball into our territory and .re- sorted to flinging the ball from all angles. Hand was the most successful, -finding the loop for three consecutive long distance heaves, giving his team anundisputed advantage which they maintained till the end of the fray, despite the frantic pleadings and urgings of the loyal Brooklyn rooters. u U ' During the middle of the half, our team endeavored to regain its top form, and with Beck leading them they made a determined bid for the game at this stage. Beck was removed and this took the fight out of the boys and went a long way in deciding the eventual winner, although the Brooklynites made audying finish as Stein playing in Beck's place and Fistel crushed through for successive baskets towards the end, placing the team three points behind the Morningside Heights passers who proceeded to freeze the sphere for the remaining minutes.
