IT’S A REAL PLEASURE
to view the new wall decorations on
view here exclusively. They are so
unconventional, so out of the common
and so unusually artistically attrac
tive. If you plan to repaper you
should by all means see these new
papers. To decide without doing so
^is apt to result in regret later.

UK’GAME
RESULTS IN
A TIED SCORE
It may have been the girls or it
may have been the perfect day or the
inducement of a double header that
filled Labor Union hall yesterday aft
ernoon and saw the two young ladies’
basketball teams play to a bitter tie
and Commission five suffer a 26 to 15
defeat at the hands of their City riv
als. In any event the hall was crowd
ed and according to Business Manager
George B. Purvis was the record bas
ketball crowd of the season. The ten
young ladies received a rousing ova
tion as they came on the court for
preliminary practice. They wore reg
ulation suits but of different hued
blouses; the balance of their costumes
were similar in color and cut, unless
perhaps there was a slight difference
in their stockings and hair ribbons.
Before accepting the honored position
of referee Sherwin insisted on some
discernible mark of distinction.
The game proved to be all that
was expected and the players lived up
to their reputations. Considering it
was their first appearance before a
critical public Captain Polley’s fivetter
did remarkably well and while the
Commission team was outweighed on
the average and possibly outlengthen
ed on the whole they played a master
game and held the score to a tie, six
all.
By this method of transposition,
which is perfectly all right in a case
of this kind, Referee Sherwin quoted
from the Greek goddess and as he
tossed the all in the air he said, speak
ing for the ball, “Let the most beauti
ful possess me.” The ball was very
much in demand; it seemed that every
player wanted it; from blonde to bru
nette to the intermediates it was pas
sed and rolled on and covered, smoth
ered and then embraced. It was elu
sive and inconsistent and anything but
on the square but played no favorites.
For instance Captain Polley missed
free try and Parks did likewise. Aft
er a few minutes of hard play time
was taken out. On renewal. of play
from out of bounds Center Byles pas
sed unerringly to Walsh who in turn
passed to Albertson with the instruc
tions to “Shoot whenever you are
ready Albertson.” Albertson made a
field basket and the first score of the
game. Parks missed two free tries in
succession, but redeemed herself by
shooting a field basket after receiving
the ball from Lockhart. At the end of
the ten-minute half score was even,
two to two.
After 20 minutes’ rest while the
regular City and Commission teams
played their first half the young la
dies again amused the spectators and
incidentally played much better bas

ketball. City having a shade the best
of it and keeping the ball in the vicin
ity of their basket most of the time.
On foul Captain Polley missed free
try- Great playing by Parks to Ku
back who shot the basket put the
Commission team two to the good. Af
ter several severe scrimmages Lock
hard to Parks gave them a lead of
four. City admirers called for a score
and the combination of Polley to Byles
to Albertson proved too intricate for
the Commission forwards and a field
basket resulted. Parks missed two
free tries. Walch playing a great
game at guard recovered the ball in
the enemy’s territory and rushed it
down the field to a basket, tying the
score. City were playing with a rush
at this stage of the game and the en
tire five distinguished themselves; Al
bertson made a great shot for basket
and missed; Byles played all over the
court and was an adept in passing. F.
Polley guarded her sister player well;
Walch was a star at all stages and
Captain Polley handled her team like
a veteran. The Five Graces from the
Commission also played equally as
well, as the tie score indicates. Parks
and Lockhart played their positoins in
great form and were ably assisted by
Rogers, Fitzgerald and Kubach.
The game ended 6 to 6 and the tie
will be played off tomorrow night. Al
bertson made two field baskets and
Walsh^ofie for the city and Parks two
and Kubach one for the Commission.
