McCarter the Came of Dispute The trouble between the three manaaerg waa over the ret roof Will McCarter, former Easier* Ueaaur player, who has bewa Ins for the Maroon team In the past four coot rets. Two of the Iber* of the body emphatically favored his Immediate release, e Garwood desired that hr remain, and when "Kid" waa over1 he decided that he would resten from the governing body. While It Is regretted that Garwood is out. It tr. our opinion that release of McCarter was the wlsect move which could have hera aside from the hiring of the New York Celtics to represent this McCarter la no longer the player he waa: his stamina is not tat and hta eagle rye Is but a memory. His tool shooting cost an City their game with Wildwood a couple of weeks ago. when d ten out of twelve tries, and on Thursday night hr hies a pie of pet ups from under the basket alth plenty of time to get set the shot.

If for no other reason McCarter should have been re-

f Willie was not aid-

is short on scoring power and certainly \

ingit any.

Unpopular With Fans But then was Mother and far more Important reason why Mrer should have been dropped from the local line-up—hi* style of . The rcngh tactics employed by McCarter In his game* made him Fedingly unpopular with even the home town tan.K. while ttx ting rooters became almost rabid. And rightly so. for no fairidrd Individual enjoys witnessing the rock ‘cut and sock 'em kind t&skrlball. Back In the early days of the old National league, when scores -0 and S-4. or regular baseball scores were common, and When the rer waa only In the game lo lust the ball up between the players. 2a'ter would have been a wonder, but fortunately the attitude ard sport* has changed and today people go lo a basketball game cting to witneas a fast, clean contest marked by brilliant t hooting fast passing.

Sod a game is impossible with oar member of the team pulling and pushing his opponent all over the court. Yourg one of the speediest players in the league, acver really hnd a chance last Thursday night with McCarter's ana wrapped around him most of the time.

May Sign Several New Players Townsend took up the reigns of active managership where Garod left them and Immediately got busy and signed George Gurti.

Goetz Is reputed lo be a high-powered scorer and can play either orward or guard position although rcgulaiiy hr held down the -named position. It Is probable that be will I*- used at forward Mangold will be returned todtls position as floor guard. According to the league rule* the members haw until nest May night In which to sign up new players and Townsend stales it ahould the team fall to show the proper stuff, now that Go^s been addad. other players will be released and new ones pi the Ocean City roster be lore the dead line for signing play bed.

Although the chances of winning the first half chantptonihip are gone the fans should hark the new team stronger than ever and help bring them through with the title over the last part of the schedule.
