The locals outplayed the Capitol City insurance agents in the first half, leading 17 to 9 when the playing time closed, But it was a different story in the second half. Johnson's Great Work, “Yump” Johnson went on a scoring rampage, resuiting in seven field goals. Getersloh, Cronin and Madden also joined in, with the result that the visitors took the lead after the teams had tied at 21 earl in the second half. Stevie Dudack, who was not playing his usual good game, was replaced by Jimmy Murphy, ordinarily a guard, at a forward position. Murphy sig- nalized his entry into the contest with a field goal. He was replaced In the middle of the half by Jim Maher, with the locals trailing by two points, but a pretty shot by the former In- dustrial leaguer evencd matter up. It was a case of the score being tied several times and then Hartford pull- ing slightly away, until the last min- ute of the battle. Restell sent the hopes of the local rooters soaring when he brought the Kaceys to with- in one point of tying the battle. There remained but 10 seconds before Timer Sauter's whistle would end the fray, with the Kaceys one point be- hind. Sheehan Turns Trick. The crowd implored the home team to get just one more tally. Near the center of the court ‘“Snowshoes” Sheehan, who had been moved up to a forward position, grabbed the ball and with a true aim, he sent it into the basket, and the locals were ahead. Saxe, Restelli and Sheehan managed to hold the ball until the fray was over, and another victo was reg- istered over a Hartford rival, and the crowd was happy. Kilduff Again Stars. Tedder Kilduff further established himself as one of the best, if not the best performer, wearing a New Brit- ain uniform thos season. This boy is a tireless worker, and no matter how the battle may be going, he is found in there doing his best all the time. Sheehan and Saxe also contributed largely to the victory of the locals. For Hartford, Tim Cronin and John- son were the chief point getters. Thorsell's defensive play was stellar. The summary: 3 Kaceys. Aetna. Kilduft S e lOTORIND Left Forward. Dudack, Murphy ....
