It was the second defeat for the Quaker City champs during the day, having dropped a contest by the score of 35 to 14 to the Shamokin team In the afternoon. The Quaker City tossers played a strong defensive game during the opening period and only allowed the local team to score one goal from the lleld. This was made by McConnell on a hard bank shot from the side of the cage. Second Half Font In the second half the visitors were unable to stop the attack of Captain McCord and his teammates. The first half ended with the score at 11 to 7 in favor of the local tossers. In this period both teams missed easy goals. Neither team showed much action in the opening period and the playing was rather listless, but in the second half both came back strong. The local team took advantage of the wire back board and scored almost at will. Mc- Cord and his player missed but few chances, throwing 9 out of 19 tries. McCord did good work from the foul line and scored 17 out of 23 chances, nine of which were scored in the first half. The summary: VINCOME A. C. Fd.G. FI.G. T.P.

Brady, the Oakley Club pro fessional. took his stance for Ills last ■ putt in Saturday's North and South | open championship tournament at Pine- ] hurst, he figured that the sinking of i that 30-foot putt probably would mean : the game and something approaching j SI,OOO. Consequently Brady decided to! sink it, and did so, winning the thirty- : six-hole contest on his 141 st stroke. j As matters turned out Brady would j have won even if he had missed the putt, but he did not know that at the , time. He had started out, on the sec- | ond round of the day, at 67, three ■ strokes ahead of C. H. Hoffner, and ] four strokes ahead of Fred McLeod and j Gil Nichols. - Cartoon Fans Measure an oblong 4U incite? wide by inches long, and make your drawing within these lines.
