BASKETBALL REVIEW
Penn State Quintet Has Successful
Year, Winning Eight Out of
Eleven Games—Summary of Sea-
Basketball at this institution dur
ing the present winter was run
under the direction of the Minor
Sports' Department, a new experi
ment, and although the season was
a most successful one as far as ,the
team's playing is concerned yet the
door receipts were not sufficient•to
meet the expenditures. The de
ficit, however, which is exceedingly
small will not reach fifty dollars
and is probably the outcome of the
minimum admission charge. The
season was both opened and closed
on the home floor. All five home
games were won and fifty per cent
of the contests on foreign floors
resulted in victories for the strong
Blue and White team. This un
usual success was largely due to
the excellent coaching of Messers
Lewis and Haddow and the efficient
handling of the team's business
matters by Manager Bevan and
Assistant Manager Flagg.
The initial ,game of the year,
played in the college gymnasium,
ended in a 48 to 30 victory for the
locals over the Pittsburgh Col
legians. The team made a clean
sweep of its western rivals - on the
trip lasting from January 16 to Jan
uary 19. The Pitt contest of this
trip proved more difficult than
either the Westinghouse or Car
negie Tech games. The team's
skillfully executed combination
plays coupled with the splendid of
fensive and defensive work of the
individual players were the causes
of these victories. The next three
games were played on the Armory
floor with Lehigh, Carnegie Tech
and Allegheny. The Lehigh and
Allegheny games were the leading
home attractions of the basketball
schedule, and both teams offered
intensely interesting games to the
spectators. The excellent passing
in both these games was the
predominating feature. The Tech
team was vanquished by
the tremendous score of 43
to 16. The Eastern trip was a-dis
astrous one as three defeats were
registered against the Penn State
team. All three games were hard
fought and figures indicate that
Penn State was nosed out of vic
tories by close scores. The serv
ices of Mauthe, who was prevented
from taking this trip on account of
collegiate work, were missed. The
final game was played in the Ar
mory with Pitt. Pitt led at the end
of the first half with a 10 to 7 score
but the Penn State five was invinci
ble in the second period and ended
the game with eleven points to
spare.
Hartz well captained the team
and through his leadership many
fine plays were formulated. In all
games Hartz was everywhere on
the floor and was always alert to
take the ball from opposing play
ers. Mauthe, of football fame,
kept his opposing forwards worried
and they experienced trouble in
evading him. Binder, at forward,
was the best shot of the team and
his accurate guage was responsible
for several victories. Park played
well offensively and was especially

successful in caging the ball while
under the basket. Hay played a
good guarding game and at times
rang in a beautiful shot. Craig, at
forward and guard, and Walton, at
center and guard, were strong sub
stitutes who aided the team in
many games. Savery, Gockley,
Wilson, Metzgar, Davidson, Willard
and Unger were other valuable men
who helped build up the strong
varsity five.
