Althoff entered the employ of the City of D ayton, J anuary 1, 1908, as chief clerk in the Department of Water . Five months later, he advanced to the position of secretary to W. A. Barber, city manager at that time. Althoff continued in this position under Barber, who resigned a few months later, and under E. V .

Playing a t the Cincinnati Music H all, the Flyers met the H am line College Pipers, and went down to the third defeat this season. Slowed down by the deliberate defense of the Pipers, the Flyers' offense was completely ineffective in the early part of the game. The Pipers took a long lead which the Flyers were never able to overcome. Midway in the fir t half the score tood 12-1 in favor of th e Pipers. At the half the score wa 2714. In the econd half, th e Flyer did manage to hold the score down, but the damage had already been done and when the game ended the score stood, H a mline 58-Dayton 43.

Dayton 77-Rio Grande 33 A high-scoring Rio Grande College five became the fifth victim, 7733, as D ayton rang up its highest offensive total of the season. Previou to meeting the Flyers, Rio Grande had averaged 64.8 points per game. Rio Grande evidently left it coring punch a t home when meeting the Flyers, for they gained but 33 points that game. The Flyers were in comma nd of the game throughout. Swinging into an earl y lead, they easily penetrated the ineffective Rio Grande defense, a nd scored almo t a t will. Spotty shooting on the part of the F lyers held the score down during the first half, but they sank 48 points in the second to ring up the 77-33 victory.

Louisville 69-Dayton 53 With 6 victorie recorded, the D ayton Flyer cagers are already ahead of Ia t season's total which aw them win butfour game . Weighing against the five wins, the Flyers have gone down to defeat three times this season. In compiling the record the Flyers have a ma sed 530 points and held th e opposition to 43 2.

Dayton 69-Bliss 5 1 A willing but loosely knit five from Bliss Business College proved the victim as the Dayton F lyers

Th e F lyer took to the road for a game against the University of Louisville Cardinals, and found the road a rough one for a 69-53 defeat, the second of the sea on. In the early minute of the game the Flyers stayed clo e to Louisville, but lowly faded a the Cardinals built up a 33-23 halftime lead . H opes of clo ing the gap were given a rude jolt earl y in the second ha lf when big Jim Arndt, the Flyer leading scoring threat bowed out with five fouls. ' (Continued o n p age 5 )
