31 - Gnaden Swamps Malvern 46-30 (3-7-31)










DOVER - The Gnadenhutten Indians (3-1) humbled the Malvern Green Hornet quintet of Carroll County by 16 points in the final 1st round game, Class B at Legion Hall Saturday afternoon. 
The losers, who were handicapped by the sickness of a regular forward, were not able to withstand the sweeping attack of the Indians, who had their 2nd team on the floor during the entire last quarter.

Ed Riley, Clarence Fox and Gene Ridgeway were the big guns for Gnaden, while C. Artzner showed class for the losers with half his team's points.

The count was tied at the 1st quarter and the fans settle back to witness a struggle.  But then, the winners started sinking fielders with the greatest rapidity of the 12 tournament games and pulled away to a 23-13 lead at he half.  The score was 37-19 at the 3-quarter mark.  Forward Riley led Gnaden with 5 fielders and 4 fouls for 14 points, while center C. Artzner of Malvern had 5 field goals and 5 fouls for 15 points.
