thoBo things and the fact that tho
"iRlnk Fivo" wero without tho ser
vices of their star guard, Bader, we
aro proud of the showing thoy made,
and bollevo that when Taylor comes
to town again, tho story will bo qulto
different.
It was a warm game, tho first half
ending In a scoro of G to 4, tho de
fensive work of both teams being ex
cellent. The second half was where
the Taylor bunch showed their class
In passing and fast offenslvo work.
The home team's weakness seemed to
bo their Inability to pass tho ball up
the lloor any where near their own
basket. Final scoro: 10 to 6. Line
up: Taylor: Forwards, D. Evans, Jor
dan; center, Sultzer; guards, A.
Evnns, Davis. Honesdale: Forwards,
