On a spectacular play the Elm City went into the lead This was the only time throughout the game that the home m was in the lead for the fighting New Britain machine got going and ran up a 20 to 10 score before the first half ended. New Britain ripped open the sec- ond half with two foul goals making the score 23 to 10. Then the most exciting and most anxious moments for the Red and Gold followed. Field goal after fleld goal New Haven flip- ped through the basket. Eimas was also doing his part on the free throw line, throwing in several foul goals with unerring skill until with the score 23 to 20 in the Hardware City team's favor, he missed his first foul shot after dropping in eight in suc- cession. That was the only shot he failed to make throughout the game and it was the most sorely needed one of them all. It was then that Neipp came to the rescue with a long shot. It looked pretty to the Hardware City rcoters who had not seen a point from the New Britain team in eight min- utes. Then the team got going and tucked the game safely in the bag. Neipp Hero of Game. Although all played fine basketball, the one player who stood out above the rest was the rangy right guard, “Dutch” Neipp. Besides making that much needed long shot he held his man scoreless. Eimas, the Elm City right forward, who gave a wonderful exhibition of foul shooting, was the star of the Hillhouse team. He to- gether with Stevens, bore the brunt of the attack and defense of the Elm City team. The lineups: N.B. H. Reynolds .. first of Hillhouse High e . Eimaa rig] orward LaHar ..........

The New Britain cheering section consisting of “Eddie” Delaney and George Kingsbury, held its own nicely against the Elm City rooters. ‘Weir, who usually averages about three field goals a game, went score- less throughout the contest. Carr, Englis Stevens Referee “Pete” Carney proved un- popular with the players on and off the floor. During one part of the game he threatened to clean off the Red and Gold bunch. Toward the first part of the game the whistie blew for time out and in came a New Haven substitute that resembled that well known character, Lew Brems. A spectator on the side- lines remarked: “Good night, they're giving the game up already.” Between the halves four New Ha- ven substitutes trotted out on the floor to give the spectators a treat in the line of basket shooting. They each took turns for about ten min- utes without any of them locating the ICE HOGKEY GAMES Four Interesting Contests Staged at Pilz-Rhodes Shuttle Meadow Rink Xesterday Afternoon.
