The return basketball match between the "Five American Belfords" of the Marcus Show and the Mormon team will be played at the Y.M.C.A. gymnasium to-morrow at 12.30 p.m. In the two previous contests the Belfords demonstrated their ability to beat the Mormons in this thrilling game. Added interest will be given to this match by the appearance of Sammy Stein, the professional wrestler, who defeated Blomfield on Monday night. Stein is a professional basketball player in America, and, with the tall Lybarger an his partner, the Belfords will have a strong defence. The Mormons, however, with the practice they have been having and the experience gained in the previous meetings, are confident of avenging the defeats.
