AT SPECIAL SERVIG ORANGE AND BUCK GOES DOWN IN DEFEAT REFORE TOLEDO VERIf GLGSESGORE OF 1 9 TQ 1 4 Ralph Wright Is Barred From The Game And His Absence Weakens The Mt Vernon Team; Locals Go Better In The Second Half Of The Contest; Stivers Defeats Steele High For Championship Of Southern Division; Woodward and Stivers Meet Late This Afternoon.

Two reasons are attributed for Mt. Vernon's defeat. Ralph Wright's ab'sehce from the contest had very much to do with the outcomeand theh the Mt. Vernon players wci'e considerably off today in their basket shooting- The first half ended 11 to 5 in favorf, of Woodward Tech, but after a cold shower between the halves, under the direction ot Coach Michael, tho Mt. Vernon players showed more pep and Bcored 9 points to' their opponents'1 8 during the last half.of Wright, Is Missed Had Ralph Wright been in the game there would have' been no question as to the outcome.

His brother, C. Wright, put up a good game, but could not equal hia brother who has been playing basketball for over four years. R. Wright was barred from the contest today, the Ohio High School as sociation holding that he had been playing basketballfor more than four years. All through the contest it was noticed that the Mt.

Vernon players were somewhat off in their shooting, but towards tho end ot the contest they appeared to overcome this diffi culty and were patting up a great game just before the contest ended.

STIVERS WINS FROM STRONG STEELE TEAM (By Fred (Hayes) DELAWARE, March 12 In one of the stillest basketball coutcsts ever witnessed In Edwards gymnasium, Stivers high school ot Dayton defeat ed Steele high, Dayton, by a scoro of 13 to at noon today. Stivers played aTast game and shot a basket during the last, second of play, which won tho contest. The game, was hotly contcstod by both-teams all the way through, as they wero evenly matched.

Rooters. Differ Rooters at tha tourney are divided in opinion as to the outcome ot tho Stivers-Woodward game, which occurs this afternoon at 4 o'clock. The Mt. Vernon fans bellovo that Woodward will win tho contest, while thcra aro others who contend that Stivers is the stronger team, Mt.Vernon Good Losers The Mt. Vernon players proved to bo good losers and showed great sportsmanship aftcjv their defeat at the hands of Woodward Tech.

Mt. Vernon players were warmly received by the basketball fans after the morning contest. Band Makes a Hit The Knights of. Pythias band of Mt. Vornon made a groat hit at tho tourney.

Mt. Vernon was the only city Bonding a band. Before the' games land during tho halves, the band gave a unmoor of selections, receiving a great ovation from the big crowd. The band will also play for the Stivers-Woodward gam this afternoon. Had Largest Crowd Mt.

Vernon high school basketball players and rooters were much disheartened this morning when the fact became known that Ralph Wright, the star left forward on the team, had been disqualified from the finals of the tournament because of the fact that he had played more than four seasons. Wright was declared ineligible last night at a meeting of tho Ohio High School Athlotic association meeting in this city. The charge that Wrjght was ineligible to play the tourney was made by Prof.

O. R. Eastman Steele high, Dayton, who is also. president of the Ohio High School Athletic associa tion. Prof.

Eastman charged? that Wright bid violated Rule 2 association, which provides that a pupil cannot take part in any athletic events over four years. Prof. Eastman ot Dayton declared that Wright had played basketball two seasons in Mt. Vernon and prior to that had played one season in Cuyahoga Falls and part Afu ono season at Kemper Military Prlncipal Koch of tho Mt. Vernon high school, and Coach Michael of the Mt.

Vernon team, attended the meeting last night and protested against tho charges filed by tho Dayton man. Prof. Koch held that Kemper was a pllitary school and not a high school and for that reason it should not be held that Wright had been playing for mofer than four years with a high school team. However, the association held otherwise and Wright was declared in eligible to play in tho contest today. Players and fans wore greatly depressed this morning when tho fact became known that Wright could not take part In tho tourney today.

Wrjght has betm a great tower ot strength to the Mt. Vernon team arid his absence from the contest may weaken the team. However, on uccount of his illness it was not considered probable that ho would cuter the contest this morning. CONTESTS WERE PLAYED ON VERY LARGE COURT (By Fred Hayes) DELAWARE, March 12 Tho contests today will not bo played on the playing courts that wero used in the preliminaries; us was thought. Instead, the long court on which O.

W.U. plays her games and which runs almost tho lougth of Edwards gymnasium will bo used. This floor is much larger than tho floor at homo and still larger than tho floors wo used in the preliminaries. Its dimensions aio 81 by 43 feet. Tho court Mt.

Vernon used two woeks ago when she played hoio was 0ox50. The big floor will bo a disadvantage to ML Vernon, while on tho other hand It will bo an advantago to Woodward Tech, as she has been uc-customotosuch largo floors. iNl, PHtes to Be Given number ot fine prizes aro to bo awarded by the merchants of Delaware" to. Borne, teams and players of the northern division for merited work. The Mt.

Vernon high school will bes given a prlzo as- the highest scoring fivo from cities of 3,000 to 20,000 population, In tho preliminary games, Cedrio Smith wjll bo awarded a special prizo for being tha biggest scoring center among the teams that came from cltlos.of to 20,000. Team In Good Shape Coach Michael elated to tho writer last night that, wKlitho exception of iiaiph right, tho team was In excel- ant condition Thd coach stated that Wright was much better but ho could not bo ut his best in today's game. It' is doubtful whether Wright will start ut tho first ot tho contest In t'oe Woodward Tech game, tho coach said. Wright did not accompany tho team here yesterday, but arrived this morning on tho special train from Vernon. All Are Favorites It Is almost Impossible to gel nn expression heie as, to tho favorite' team In tho tournament.

Tho Delaware Journal-Herald of last night had this to say ot the teams: All the teams appear to be favorites. Mt. Vernon was not forced to extend herself In tho tournament at any tlmo for she had easy games and as a result, her real strength cannot 13 determined. Woodward has a wonderful passing combination, and in Paine, Jeffrey and Kipperman has three splendid shots. Mt.

Vernon has Smith and Wright to rely on for tho burden of tho scoring and also pre- 'sonts a fast and accurate nassinc combination. It is not known yet definitely whether Matdsoff and Slfford, the star Stivers forwards, will be ublo to participate- or not. Last week they wero suspended from school for violating bchool rulos and wero not permitted to play at that tlmo. Whether they have boen reinstated or not is not known. If they do play Stivers may have a slight margin over the Steele boys for they have defeated them twice this year before by closo-ninr-gins.

But In tho absence of these two forwr-ids, Steele may be expected to either cop the game or at least make a mighty hard fight for It if she plays as she did in the game week against Cambridge. Keefer and Klee are two forwards that are hard to beat and no matter what combination Stiers presents, it is bound to be a good gamo and it will hao to be a good team that stops this pair of forwards.
