BY ONE POINT The American Legion five of Cape May wane a close and exciting game [ of basket ball from the Wildwood five on the Convention Hall flpor last Wednesday evening. As usual the game wis nip and , tuck from start to final whistle which kept the large crowd *on edge at all times. Wildwood broke the ice withj a field goal but Cape May soqn-forged ahead on a foul and a two-pointer and long the locals had run tye " score up to 16-5, completely carrying the visitors off their feet, the half ended 17-11 with Cape May in the front, ' The second half started off with 1 Wildwood doing the scoring until a margin of one point, was reached. Delaney then registered a peat bas1 ket putting Wildwood in the lead by one point with six minutq§ to go. then stuck one in and the score 1 stood 24-21, favor of Wildwood. -Camp received a long pass which resulted in a basket again, leaving a one point 1 margin. Camp again came to the rescue of the home boys with a field toss from the side of the cage which put" the locals in the lead, here the ' locals began freezing, tlje ball. The locals had in their line-up a star of a number of years ago, none other than Vanzant, who staged a grand comeback after being out of the game for a couple of years, his ap- , pearance in the game seemed to inspire the, local boys with pep. The floor work and passing of Vanzant and the accurate shooting of (Jamy and Little featured for the home bo.vs. George Dorner refereed one of his I best games of the season. Dorner -is considered "the best arbitrator in these parts of Jersey being fair and square in calling fouls on both sytes. A game like these Wildwood affairs, fast and close are hard to referee and he deall the credit that can be given him.
