SUGARCREEK - The Mineral City Tigers (1-2) drew a bye, due to the fact that the Gnadenhutten Indians (2-2) was unable to put a team on the floor. An epidemic of mumps and the grip in the Gnadenhutten school put 4 of the varsity men on the sick list.
The 1st game of the tournament was the Bolivar Cardinals (1-0) (3-2) -Tuscarawas Broncos (0-1) (0-3) go. Indications were that this contest was going to be a thriller, but Wolf and Benner, Tusky regulars were ruled out because of personal fouls at the end of the 1st half. Tuscarawas led 9-8 at the half-way mark and both and both teams were traveling at top speed. The play slowed up during the 2nd half, Tusky seemed to lose heart with 2 of their first-string on the sidelines. Witmer, Garber and Kinzli were all going strong on the scoring for Bolivar. Witmer scored 5, Kinzli 4 and Garber 3 field goals for the Cardinals crew. R. Mase, playing a starring game for the Bolivar team, added another field goal to the total. Eichel caged 2 field goals and 2 free throws, while Wolf made a field goal and 3 free throws before he was taken out of the game. Bolivar's passing game won the contest for them. Oxenrider of Millersburg was the referee, while Stiffler of New Philadelphia officiated with the umpire's whistle. Wilmer and Kinzli led the Cardinals with 11 points each, while Garber punched in 8 points. Eichel led the Broncos with 6 points, while Wolf had 5.
