The ‘winning streak of the Comets of the Boys' club was halted on Sat- urday night, when the Lincoln A. C. of Waterbury defeated the New Brit-, ain team, 36 to 22, at Waterbury. The tollowers of the Comets are loud in ;their denunciation of the work of the referees in the contest. In the first half, an official allowed the teams to regort to everything outside the rules of the sport. He was so bad that a change was made in the second half and the official following the first one iwas even worse, according to the Comets' press agent. The lineup: Comets P.C. .800 .800 600 500 333 .000 JOHANNY M RPHY WINS, 1922 Champion Driver Captures 250- Mile Race at Los Angeles, Los Angeles, Feb, 26.—Jimmy Mur- phy, last year's champion automobile racer, won the first event of this sea- son’s competition, a 250 mile contest on the Los Angeles speedway yester- day, in 2 hours, minutes, 433-5 seconds.
