Commission. 3 4 .429
The regular City team won over the
Commission team 26 to 15 yesterday
afternoon and advances to first place
in league standing. Captain Magnus
af the Commission was unable to play
and this materially hurt the scoring
powers of his team, as most of the
plays and passes are built around the
fighting captain.
The City started off as winners.
Knutson and Henning shot field bas
kets soon after ball was put in play.
Knutson to Veach scored the third one
and Veach missed two free tries but
evened up by making the next two.
Costello, who played a great aggres
sive game yesterday, scored first for
the Commission after Engle had mis
sed. Knutson shot another basket for
the city and on the next play Knutson
passed to Henning who scored. Mick
ey and Leahy pulled off a great dis
play of passing from the center of the
:ourt, but Dick missed the basket.
First half ended City 12, A. E. C. 2.
Commission fouled on first play and
Veach scored one point. Commission
;ame through strong on the next few
plays and Dick Leahy scored a field
basket after receiving the ball from
Ryan. Brunner came through with a
basket. With the ball out of bounus
Powrie passed to Veach who scored.
The ball changed hands on most every
play and both teams were checking
well. Ryan recovered and passed to
Costello who shot a perfect basket.
Roy Trachsel and little Henning were
playing highclass ball; Trachsel
guarding his man at every stage and
Henning getting into every play.
Knutson broke through for another
score and Leahy made free try. Veach
to Henning back to Veach scored
again for the city and the Commis
sion came right back and scored Ryan
to Leahy.
Engle received the ball from Mick
ey and dodged his man and #hot a
difficult basket. Leahy missed free
try. The best passing of the game
was developed on the next play; Mick
ey to Ryan to Engle all the way down
the court to two points.
Commission were playing excep
tionally strong and were keeping the
ball in their own territory most of the
time. Little Henning however, sent
all hopes glimmering by making two
baskets in succession, receiving the
ball from Knutson and Powery. Dick
missed free try. Veach made free
basket and scored a field basket on
next play, Trachsel to Veach.
Veach made free masket and the
game was over, City 26, A. E. C. 15.
