Coach Thomas has been chasing his lads at top speed during the past week so that they will be in excellent shape for the conflict. He believes that the boys are due to hit their stride and cop a worthy victory. But the Greyhounds will be facing a double jinx. In addition to receiving a set-back from the Red Tor-radoes, the home passers are entering the fray with the knowledge that no Shamokin team has ever been able to win a game in the Mt. Carmel gymnausim.

Take a good look and try to see the barrier that confronts the favorites who wear the Maroon and Grey. It is expected that several hundred supporters of the Greyhounds will accompany them to the Rock- rail ways two sides. lour side, 01 course, and the wrong side, unless the other fellow agrees with you, in which case there is no argument. Just now a little argument has poked its head over the aforementioned peaceful horizon of scholastic conditions and there are two very a-brupt sides, sorry to say. Far be it from us to create a false impression, either pro or con.

There is nothing we would like to do less than cause any breach between the two schools because everyone realizes that the rivalry that has grown up within the past two years is of just the refreshing nature that could be desired. However, is appears that the two schools are unable to come to some amicable agreement as to when the respective Purple Demons and Greyhounds will meet on the court for a game or so this year.

The Indians expect to be a new team tonight, rejuvenated, full of life and pep, and if the fans desire to see a well oiled team working they should not miss the game at Edgewood Park this evening. None of the players was injured in Tuesday night's game except "Push 'Em Up Tony" Marhefka and he was compelled to retire during the early part of the fray with a slightly sprained ankle, but through sheer grit and pluck returned to the game and participated in the remainder of the battle. Reports have it that his ankle is very badly swollen and therefore it is doubtful if he will be able to perform this evening. A preliminary game between the Shamokin Juniors and the Danville Juniors will take place at 7:30 and will keep the fans on a move until time for the main battle. The local boys have a win over the visitors ande are coknfident of repeating the trick tonight.

The usual price of admission of 25 cents will be charged and taking into consideration the attraction, the price of two bits should not be considered exorbitant.

The score, although large, does not indicate that the game was not interesting. Sensational shots and clever passing accounted for both high scores. The defense of the Northern Lights was too deep for the Keystones to fathom, while their offensive worked exceptionally well. Rumbergcr's floor work was continually a menace to the Northern Lights' offense.

It is hard to dctarmine who was the star of the virtorious team. Wheary was high scorer with seventeen points, while Farrow and Thomas were tied at twelve each. Reed's clever guarding was a continuous "hoodoo" to the Keystone's plays. Yost also played a good defensive game. The teams were well matched, the figures at the half showing the score to he tied, 21-21.

The big thrill of the game was a result of John Boblick's one-handed shot from the center of the floor. No one was more surprised than himself when the ball went through the net without even touching the rim. Fink, lanky terminal man for the Keystone qdintet, was the high scorer for both sides, garnering eight field goals and three foul3 for a total of nineteen points.
