Word coverage of the game was ivovlded the visi- tora by a local news burean. Cyril Harrison, who had bden plekad to lead the Camden teem, waa suffering from a bad cold and did not want U> nin the chance ol^ adding ,to It, 10 he handled the ulerophona <tf the gaUle addrime •yatem, giving a tine presentation df the play by play action.. Harrl- ton la clever in this rerfe, and his knowledge of the game and play ers enables him to give the spec tators a weU coordinated and ao- enrate portrayal of the field acUon. CamdMi lined np with M. B. Bums at No. 1, Kirby Tapper, Sr., a No. S. Carl Ughttoot at No. 8 and Major Carll of Fort Jai^kaon, who plays with the Camden clnb, at No. 4. For Angnata, a tall lanky chap named Fred Timm was at No. 1 apd was a beantlfal player and shot expert Kirby Tapper, Jr., donned the Angnata eolors at No. 2. Jimmie Minnick was at No. 2 and Tbrrance Preece, a terrific player was at No. 4. It lo<died aa If Camden was go ing to make a walkaway of the af fair aa Llghtfoot raced half the length of the field after the initial toas-ln to aixire. In the second per iod Llghtfoot put Camden 2 points to tpe good with anothar score. This was a beautlfnl play with the chunkr Indian rider getting beau- ttfnl Buppmt from fini^, who rode off all opposition as Llghtfoot tore in for the kill. Timm (MF Angnata scored first for the invaders in the second chukker. PreeOe .tied up the count In the third and when Kirby Tapper, Jr., following close on fhe heels of Timm as hei raced down on the Camden goal, drove Timm's shot, which bounded back from a iroal post, back between the poets to glve^ the vlaltors a t to 2 lead ker ended In the fifth chukker. Minnick again scored, making it 7 to 8. The crowd, definitely Camden-minded was unusually quiet, not being able to sense the fact that their favo rites were being given some rough going-over by the invaders. Kirby Tupper, Sr., got a big hand when he scored two nice goals to make It 7-4. In' the sixth and final period Camden' scored again when Llght foot put the willow between the Angnata posts. Minnick railed the visitors total to 8 when another free shot from the 40-foot Uaa Kirby 'Tapper, Sr., raised the Cam- den total to 6 with a well-placed shot_Ja8t before the game came to a close. The two teams will meet in tfie second game of the aeiiee on neat Snnday afternoon at I o’clock. It la expected .that Harrison will get Into the action in this battle which haa sent the odds to about 7-6 Camden’i favor.
