Four fast games Thursday night
closed the second division of the
Church league basket ball race. The
Dundee Presbyterians, the cham
pions, were forced to stretch them
selves to defeat Clifton Hill, holders
of third place, by a 12 to 11 count.
The league title was not involved in
the game, however, as Dundee had
tucked away enough games to clinch
the ehamoionship several weeks ago.
Dundee will play the Wops,
champs in division Xo. 1, for the
Church championship
Walnut Hill won their second
game this year by beating Hanscom
Park, 12 to 7. The playing of Nord
strom was the feature of the game.
The First Christian managed to
down the First Reformed after a
hard battle, 13 to 12. Kromstedt was
the big man for the Christians and
Reeves and Jones played best for
the Reformed.
Grace M. E. had little trouble with
the Hirst M. E., winning, 14 to 4.
Banner, Bevington and Morris all
played well for Grace and Taylor
starred for Hirst.
