m. Bortner's unbeaten team was hard-pressed to defeat Kling Brothers in the b'enior Community league last night but managed to grab their fifth consecutive win, 41 to 18. A third-period rush which netted them 10 points against two crushed their rivals' hopes after only two points divided the teams at the half. Lease was the game's high scorer with 11 points. Girard, likewise unbeaten, also found difficuay in gaining its fifth win, being held well in check until the fourth period in beating York Safe, 33-16.

The co-leaders were in front by only two points when the final quarter got underway but a flood of field goals gave Girard the triumph. Both teams' points were evenly divided. The York Electric and York Shipley game was postponed.

McPher-son, former star with the famed New York Renaissance, the soldiers proved themselves expert ball-handlers and established a half-time lead of 26-15. During the second-half Blaw-Knox whittled down the lead but never really threatened. Cpl. Tony Ferrara, former, star prep school eager from New York, and Sgt. John Birdelia, ex-Illinois star, led the scoring for the winners while Lee Brymesser stood out for the Yorkers.

Green Hut vs. 11 Girard-Bortner's Yorlr High Cage Teams Play In Reading Tonight York High's basketball team will journey to Reading tonight to meet the Berks county school in a Central Penn Basketball league tilt. Prior to last week, Reading appeared likely to run through the league unbeaten but Lebanon dispelled that, possibility by whipping Reading. York has yet to win a league game, having bowed to Lebanon, John Harris and Lancaster.

Coach Don Cock-ley is planning no lineup changes but may be forced into it as two members of the first squad may not be available because of scholastic ineligibility. The two lads have until today to make up back work and their playing rests on the condition of that work. York's Reserves, unbeaten, in league play, will open the evening with a preliminary tilt at 7 o'clock. Collins And Bresnahan May Make Hall Of Fame New York, Jan. 15 UP) Don't be surprised to see the names of Jimmy Collins and Roger Bresnahan elected to baseball's Hall of Fame after the votes in the current balloting are counted Jan.

20. Collins, famous third baseman of the '90's and early 1900s, and Bresnahan, former battery mate of the matchless Christy Mathew-son, have been just under the border line in previous polls, but stand the best chance to enter Ihe charmed circle this time. Their deaths within the past year have focused fans' attention on them and their historic diamond exploits. Collins, one of the game's greatest third sackers. and manager of the first team ever to win a world series, generally is credited with' revolutionizing third base play.

He was the first to play away from the bag and the first to master the art' of defense against bunts.
