Neither , the Cabbies nor Andy's have been; -'tipped ; in ; regular league action.

The Po lice did much of their firing at long range without success. Y On " long passes there . either wasn't a policeman on the spot to catch the ball or a Fireman was there to intercept . 'The Police didn't get a field goal in the '. first three quarters but in the fourth got in close for three : good V buckets. Quarter scores , favored the Firemen 4 to 3, 11 to 4 and 14 to 4.
