Although the crowd was not as large as at some of the previons games, the excitement that prevailed was greater than at any time in the past, including the Hartford frays. That there is a keen spirit of rivalry be- tween the teams, was shown through- out the contest, and at times much roughness was indulged in. The \eri- den team, much larger than the lo- | cals, used the advantage. Referee Lets It Go In the absence of Dick Dillon as referee, Ciyde Waters of Bristol, of- ficiated in that capacity. He is not a Dillon by any means, and although the Meriden fans seemed to be of the impression that he was off color, it | seems to the local fans, that had | Richard been handling the reins, | many more fonls would have been called on the visitors. Maher Is Big Star 1t is often the rule that the loss of one of the regulars weakens a team, but in Restella's non-appearance last night, this rule did not apply. Mana- ger Mangan, sent Jimmy Maher to the center posttion, and the exhibition turned in by Maher, will keep the fans talking for sometime. Several times during the game, and particu- larly at crucial moments, Maher came through with field goals, that helped greatly. Maher's exhibition in the second half was brilliant, the elon- gated center getting five fiald baskets, several of them of the sensational kind. To many it seems that the playing of Maher regularly will tend to strengthen the locals. Sheehan played a “whale" of a game last night hesides acting as captain, Being the leader of the team did not affect Jimmy in the head at all. For Meri- den, Coyle and Gaffney did good work, and the highly touted Hartford, proved a ‘“whizz" against the defen- sive playing of Saxe and Sheehan. Locals Score First The game opened with Sheehan tossing a neat field goal and this was followed by a field goal by Gill. Both teams registered points from the foul line. Field goals by Sheehan and Gill tied the score. Gaffney then sent his team into the lead, for a few seconds. this being the only time that the vis- itors held the advantage during the night. Kilduff and Maher joined with Sheehan in scoring, and Hart- ford and Coyle dropped a few into the basket, so that at the end of the first half, the score was 18 to 13 in favor of the home team. Coyle Plays Well ! The game continued at a top speed in the second half, and it was mainly through the brilliant work of Maher who scored five field goals, that the victory came to New Britain. Coyle for Meriden, put forth herculean ef- forts to put across_a victory. Gaffney also contributed three field goals, that merited applause.

Joe Egan of Boston, was sent from the ring at the Auditorium at Hart- ford last night in the ninth round of the bout with Frankie Maguire of Philadelphia, by Referee Frankie Glennon. The arbiter ruled that Egan was not trying, and there were many in the hall who disagreed with him. There were two knockouts in the exhibition, Marty Ferrell ‘“taking' Charlie Ketchell in the second round, and Eddie Condon of Hartford, stopped Young Brown of Saratoga Springs, in the first round. The pre- liminary bout was between Rocco Geary and ‘“Kid" Lewis, both of Hartford. Geary won the referee’s award.

Princeton the world | WLADEK ZBYSZKO BEATS STECHER Polish Grappler Wins Over Ne- braskan--Crowd Registers Its Ire 'w York, Feb, 22-—Wladek Zbysz- ko, the Polish grappler, scored the first vietory last night in the series of important heavyweight wrestling con- tests scheduled for Madison Square Garden in the elimination tournament to establish an American heavyweight champion, The Polander, brother of the world's heavyweight champion, deteated Joe Stecher of Nebras former world's champjon, two falls out of three, Zbyszko gained the first fall of .the match-in 29 minutes with a half-Nel- son and roll. Stecher was awarded the sccond, squaring the match, in 14 minutes, when Referee Johnny Flee- son recognized a flying fall as Stecher “hy 0 on the mat with a half-Nelson and partial leg ors. s s wis awarded to Zhy ko in 6 minutes 45 6econds, when the Pole sent Stecher flying and rolling with a combination head and arm lock. Third Fall Displeases. The award of the third fall did not please the comparatively small crowd. There was a demonstration of disap- proval from the angry spectators, who kept up a tirade as they left the Garden, ’ It was a contest in which Zbyszko's brute strength was pitted against Ste- cher's speed and cleverness, The strength of the Pole gave him the first fall and the power in his tre- mendously developed — arms gave Zbyszko the third and decisive fall of the match. Stechers remarkable speed for a man of his weight enabled the Nebraskan to score the second fall of the match, a fall which was popular with the crowd. Zbyszko's weight was announced as 217 and Stecher's as 209. In the first bout John Springfield and Dick Daviscourt, Western heavyweight, grappled to a 45-minute draw. Each secured a fall, but neither could accomplish a deci- sive tumble. Daviscourt scored first with a flying fall, achieved with a head lock in 22 minutes. After 15 minutes of action Olin scored a roll- ing fall with the aid of a half-Nel- son. Through the remaining eight minutes of action neither grappler was successful in the struggle for a decisive fall. Lewis Defeats Binckley. In the second bout Ed (Strangler) Lewis, former world’s champion, scored two falls over Cliff Binckley, the Ohio heavyweight aspirant. The match was keenly contested through- out. Binckley was on the defensive for the greater part of the time, but several times shook off Lewis' at- tempts to produce a fall through the famous head lock. There were occa- sions, too, when Binckley, in fitful bursts of aggressiveness, clasped Lew- is in dangerous body scissors hold, in- terspersed with headlocks, and thus gave the Strangler a taste of his own medicine. Lewis gained the first fall quickly. Referce Artie McGovern ruled the shoulders of Binckley had touched the mat on a rolling fall while the Ohioan was bridging under a neck hold which followed a headlock. The tall came in 9:30. The decision was not popular with the crowd. Lewis gained the second fall in 28:30 with a crotch and neck hold and a body roll.
