In a game replete with all the thrills of ancient and modern basketball, the Cleveland Pennzoil team defeated the Oil City Pennzip Basketball Club 38- 36 last evening on the Armory floor. The Clevelanders, fresh from a three weeks' eastern tour and boasting an amazing win record. set a fast scoring pace in the first three periods and set up an 11-point lead that was nearly overtaken as the locals entered into a scoring spree in the final stanza. With Mike O'Neil, former Goodyear and Pennzoil player, in the pivot, position. the locals showed the most brilliant passing of the season, and after a perfect record from the free line the initial periods fell from grace in final sessions in their tosses from charity lapel This is the the second win for the Cleveland-Pennzoils.

Brilliant shooting by and Delahunty enabled the locals garner Cleaves, six points to their opponents' eight in the initial period, but the visitors stepped to a greater lead at the opening of the second period, Adams and Eckert scored in succession. The seeond stanza score ended with Cleveland Pennzoil 24, Pennzip 18. Eckert and Rosequist, former Ohio State star. sunk the ball through the meshes with monotonous regularity 111 the third stanza, and the Lake City quintet was on the long end of a 35-24 score at the end of this period.

Delahunty opening the final session scoring twice from the field but the Pennzip Club rapidly orertook the visitors in one of the greatest rallies ever seen on a local court. Eckert garnered 12 points for the visitors, and Delahunty copped high honors of the fracas 1 with 15 points, to his credit. Shuffstall drew, as has been his luck in most of this season's games, the largest man on the visitors squad as his opponent, and the Franklin boy turned in a great game. Ganzy Benediet and Cleaves played a sparkling game in the back court in advancing the ball for scoring. Bobby Way handled the whistle in what was undoubtedly one of his hardest games at officiating.
