The undergraduates, who are still in the throes of exaltation over the fine showing of the eleven, are also congratulating themselves 011 the fact that last winter Graduate Manager Berry and the Athletic association were far-sighted enough to secure Coach Gilmour Dobie's signature to a longer contract.

On the groundwork laid this year the Ithacans hope to build.

For this reason his recent record will be of interest to local fans. Mike 1s now 34 years of age, and is going on toward his thirty-fifth lap. This is the prime of life for the average man, but it is nearing the sere and yellow for the "box-fighter." A few years ago Mike was in his heyday.

He flattened one of the most highly press-agented fighters in the world, Young Ahern, and he gave away his life blood in avoirdupois to meet the cleverest welterweight that ever wielded a gloveMcFarland -gaining a draw despite the handicap.

He says that if Bingham tonians want 1 team that, provides the most spectacular basketball Binghamton has ever been privileged to witness, they will have to make this known by attending the game tonight and the one next week. Otherwise, goodbye to professional baRketball. That be expects a rictory tonight WAS the declaration of the Binghamton leader today.

He says that all of his players are fighting mood and anxious to win from a quintet with such a reputation. as the Buffalo basket tossers have. Schwar zer announced today that his two new men will start the game and that the local team will take the floor in this way: Hastin. I. Dexter, r.

Ashmead, Hastin and Dexter should Zire a fino exhibition in the forward positions both have made excellent scoring records in previous years and Ladouceur at center is considered one of the best men in this position up-state.

The game will start at 8:40 o'clock with MeAvoy of Cortland as referee.

The local manager is taking 110 chances 00 having the Rochester quintet mess up bis team's string of three straight victor. ins and will take his strongest lineup to the Flower city.

Concerning Molinet and Ortner and the game in general, a Rochester paper Jose Molinet, the sensational Cuban player, and Howard Ortner will be in the Bausch line-up for the Binghamton A game at the Armory on Saturday night. Molinet was the big noise of the A Bausch- Elmira game at Balco court last week. Playing the first professional game for the Balcos. the Cuban tossed in nine baskets from the field. Molinet is a big felow, taller and bearier than "Butch" Clark.

and for a giant he is about the fastest performer seen on a local court. Elis height is his biggest asset in the vicinity of the basket. 75 was proved last week when he tipped four shots on follow- -ups. Molinet is a clever dribbler and on the Armory court where he will have plenty of room, he should give fans somethingmore than A booting exhibition. He handles the ball much on the order of Ortner and his floor game reminds one of the Baleo captaln.

Joe Schwarzer will bring Bill Dexter along for one of his forwards. was the big star of the Hewitt game and recently he made good on nineteen out of twenty-one fouls in 8 game with the New York Crescents. Frankie Kilmurray is also a Binghamton player. Joe Ashmead, former All- at Cornell. 18 the.

Van Kempen relieved his partner, Deruyter, and this team was a full half lap in the lead before Goullet and McNamara began to cut them down, yard by yard. Brocco relieved Goullet and Madden took up the burden for McNamara, and these four, after riding the runaways into submission, started a "jam" of their own that had the entire field on edge. Had Hadden been willing to do his share of the pacemaking he and Goullet might have lapped all the others.

Eddie, however, was content to "sleigh ride' behind both Goullet and Brocco.
