EDISON REPEATS WIN AT ARDMORE Through a sensational last period rally that produced nine points, the Edison Junior High School gained a close 22 to 19 victory over Lower Merion Junior High School team at Ardmore last night It was the second win for Edison over Lower Merlon as Coach Shorty Miller's team gained a victory here previously.

Lower Merlon played much better on its home court than it did here, and through the first three periods the battle was on fairly even terms. Lower Merion tied the score at thirteen points apiece in the third period but Edison's fine attack in the last session sewed matters up for the local club. Nicholson, of Edison, and Sherwood and Zengel. of Lower Merion, starred on the offense. EDISON LOWER SfKRTON o.

LEAGUE 8.30 P.M. -mr mm mw 75 Plus Tax Lil I produce a better scoring punch and consequently dropped a 24 to 16 decision to the Lancaster High five which went into a deadlock for first place as a result of its victory last night at Lancaster. Reading's surprising loss to Hershey plus Lancaster's triumph, enabled the winners to tie the Red Knights for the kingpin -position in the league.

Apparently unable to accustom Itself to the slippery condition of the court, the Harrisonions scored only three points during the entire first half. The tiff was staged on the Maple Grove Park floor, a slippery footing making things difficult for the visiting team. The chief factor In Harris downfall was its inability to convert points from under the basket and the fifteen-foot mark. Lancaster, on the other hand, played a consistent game to chalk up twelve points in the first half to take a lead that proved too big for Harris to overcome. Resin Has Effect The Crimson and Silver baiket-eers came out In the second half with' resin on their shoes and displayed far better form during the last two periods.

The Madison-coached team was held on even terms in the third period and in the last period the Hill five clicked in old-time form to gain a slight edge over the ultimate victors. Spangler, fleet Harris forward, tied with Bauer, of Lancaster, for high scoring honors with eight points. Nye contributed four points to Harris' cause also. In a preliminary game the John Harris Reserves were easily defeated by the Lancaster Reserves, 23 to 15. Yurslfr Gamo LANCASTER JOHN HARRIS a.

Wl PENN PLAYS STEELTON HERE A record attendance for the basketball season thus far is expected at the Madrid Palestr? this evening when the William Penn and Steelton high schools clash in the second game of their annual series in a Central Pennsylvania BasketbaJ League game.

The varsity game starts at 8 o'clock, preceded by a preliminary game between the reserves at 7 o'clock. Both teams have held stiff drills this past week in preparation for tonight's game and a battle royal is expected. William Penn held a practice at the Madrid Palestra on Wednesday evening so as to accustom themselves better to the floor, and on Thursday evening the Blue and White passers drilled there for the same purpose. A win for the favored down-river quintet tonight will mean a triple tie for the lead, since Reading was jolted last night as Lancaster won. Penn lost by a 26 to 21 score in a game at Steelton earlier this season The Madrid Palestra has proved as much a jinx to Steelton this year as the Island Field has during the football season.

In the early weeks of the league comoetition, John Harris scored a 31 to 28 victory over the Hoffman-coached team at the Palestra. The probable starting lineup tonight will be: Steelton, Krout ana Padjen, forwards: Paukner, center. Cernugel and Hoffman, guards; William Penn, Billett and Captain Pros ser, forwards: Speraw, center: Carl and Ross, guards. Julian will officiate.

GOOD OLD VOCE-AND HOW court duel, from the Reading School quintet, 31 to 29. on the Reading team's court last night. Regarded as but nn easy workout for the league-leadinfl Red Knights, the heretofore lowly team from the Chocolate Town amazed a throne of spectators by claying a small college team. The unusual victory dropped the highly-toued Knights into a tie with Lancaster for first place in the loop standing. Almost single handed.

Zimmerman, classy Hershey forward, won the game for Coach Brittain's club. The sharp-shooting ace registered six times from scrimmage and converted three tosses from the foul line. This gave the lad high scoring honors for the evening. Everything went "according to Hoyle" in the first period with Hershey going scoreless while Reading six points. Then, almost unbelievingly, the underdogs fought desnerately and scored eleven points while Reading came through with Just ten.

Sense Upset Ths Southern Junior High Schoal gym buzzed with the chatter of the surprised fans who sniffed something sensational in the air, and Hershey didn't disappoint Her-ehey's third period attack made the Knights look like puppets pulled by strings as their offensive raged for ten points more. First the crowd was amused, then surprised and then finally cheering for the brilliant visitors who were so ill-considered prior to the start of the battle. Hershey lads called a time out in the third period and when they took their places they were determined to hold the lead which they gained when Reading scored. only two points in the third stanza. Before the final period began Reading took things into account and went at the Hershey club with a vengeance but failed to keep its prestige lintanvshed.

The Knights outscored the Brittain boys. 11 to 10, but with Zimmerman. Eshelman and N. Baugher coming through with pretty stabs at the net, the cellar-holders smashed to victory. The Hershey varsity's victory was nil the more surprising in that the visitors' reserve team was smashed, .14 to 20, by the Reading High understudies in the preliminary game.

Just imagine the Reading followers' embarrassment after that. Varsity Gamo HERSHEY REAPING G. F. P. o.

NICHOLAS ON RINK AT HERSHEY Rejuvenated after their brilliant victory over the Baltimore Orioles at the Hershey Ice Palace Wednesday i night, the Hershey Bars are on-edge for another Eastern League meeting with the St. Nicholas A. C. team of New York tonight at Hershey. The battle tonight should be another thrill-producing event in view of the comparative scores between the two circuit rivals.

In one game played at New York the B'ars barely won by a 2 to 0 score and in the other, at Hershey, the result was a 1 to 1. deadlock. St. Nicholas is composed principally of former Yale, Harvard, Princeton, McGill, Colgate and Dartmouth College and University players. Bill Morton, an all-American football star a few years ago at Dartmouth, is one of the St.

Nicholas skaters. There will also on tonight's card a preliminary game that is expected to attract a lot of interest in this section. In this contest the recently organized Dickinson College hockey team will meet the Cynwyd Junior hockey outfit. The game will be the first in which the Carlisle college has ever been represented by an organized hockey team. Eppa Rixey Announces Baseball Retirement CINCINNATI, Feb.

Heck-man and Huber. EXPECT RECORD IN BAXTER MILE NEW YORK. Feb. 17. Wound up and ready to go, the three fleetest Milers America has ever produced will be placed on the track together tonight in Madison Square Garden.

A crowd of 16,000, or all you can press past the fire department inspectors, will jam the arena to see the Baxter Mile, emblazoning the iNew YorK Athletic Club games, and presenting Glenn Cunningham. Bill Bonthron and Gene Venzke. It is expected that the winner will break the world's indoor record for tile mile run, four minutes, ten seconds, set by Venzke in the Baxter Mile of 1932. Cunningham, the favorite, has already defeated Venzke in 4:11.2 this month and has done 4:09.8 outdoors, but even this has been surpassed by Bonthron, holder of the native American outdoor record of 4:08.7. While most of the track talkers look upon the event as a duel between these two, there is more than one expert with a hunch that they'll kill each other off and ease the way for Venzke to storm home in front.

York. Phineas Davis, 24: Edgar Fahs Smith, 18. Smith Reserves, 26; JJavis Reserves, 6. BIGG WONT ALLOW KNOBBY IN At last comes the amateur boxing show with a knockout punch! Only two technical knockouts were scored in the eleven bouts presented at the second Palestra show before more than 1500 fans last night and as a whole they seemed to please the majority in contrast to the long, drawn-out show at the Palestra two weeks ago. Unable to pass a physical examination because of laryngitis, Nick Goodliart, of Fairmont, could not be put on in the windup against Ray Crissop last night.

Instead, the elongated Kid Hockers. 209, of Steelton, went into the battle and made a great showing against the Williamsport slugger, who had previously knocked him out. Because Crissop was fortunate to get through Hockers' defense twice for punches that measured the Steelton big boy, Crissop was awarded the decision. Many had their coats on and ready to depart when Crissop lunged from the ropes and sent Hockers down in the third round. However, Hockers got up at the count of nine, went down again in the fourth, but managed to stay to the end.

Outweighed by twenty -seven pounds, Crissop had to take some punishment from Hockers' right jabs and left swings before he landed effectively with his dynamite rights. In the semi-windup, that was marred slightly by clinches. Earl Fredericks, 136, of Lancaster, gained the decision over Bobby Wiland. 135, city. A fast finish by Fredericks, who was the aggressor throughout, earned him the verdict.

Stop McClurf Boot Ponular Pete McClurtf. 130 rifv happened to meet a boy that had too much reach to solve in Hariv Rineer, 130, of Lancaster. After taking the count twice in the first round, McClurg was forced to dis continue by Referee Jim Morrissey. Fight fans at last night's bouts at the Palestra got a few laughs out the way several persons were falling over in and out of the ring. Rudy Radisch, Steelton boy.

started the tactics in the opening bout by railing over nis own feet trying to get to a neutral corner after knock ing down his opponent Then, between the third and fourth bouts, the colored water boy took a nose dive when he tripped over the lower strand. Fortunately for the ringsiders, the water bucket was not in his hands when he fell. Bobby McClurg also caused his foe, Willie Lucas, of Lebanon, to hit the mat head-first when Bobby ducked as Willie rushed at him from the ropes. Also, in the windup. Ray Crissop and Kid Hockers were on the verge falling outside.

Nick Goodhart, who was to have met Crissop was hand last night, having weighed in, but was unable to pass the physician's tests. He had laryngitis. Hal Trout, who won his fight -last DiKjrcir-ic aoc TODAY'S FEATUKES "Tnt'TVlew by Bob Ta 1)1 Inter, W.XIM 6 o. m. "liHatlone TVteen and WEAF.
