Speaking of Sports ‘The Boyth church quintet, smart. \ng from. the walloping Mn'%od it last_night by the state trade séhool, s out to regain its self-respect by swamping the Bpartans when these two teams oppose each other at the Boys' club tonight. Troop 4 will seck to break into the win eolumn tonight when it will meet the Comets in a game at the |. Boya' club. The 8couts have been losing with regularity Istely, but by margins of one and two poin{s, and hape to have luck on their side tov night. The striking change which a dif- ferent floor will make in a team's play was well {llustrated here Mon- day and Tuesday nights. On Mon- day evening, the state trade school quintet, accustomed to the bandbox gym” at the high school, was com- pletely at sea on the big floor at the Boys' club and went down be. fore the Reserves by a score of 46-18. And last night, the South church, which uses the Boys' club as a home floor and whieh-gave the aforemen- tioned Reserves their closest game in weeks, was totally at a loss when it played the trade school at the high school. The South church will seels to further prove this floor the- ory next week when it plays a re- turn game with the trade achool at the ‘Boys' club. = And the theory will get another test when the Reserves, who swamp- ed the Bloomfield high school alum- ni here, go to that town Saturday for a return game in. Bloomfield's peach-crate g The Landers-R. and E. game was the first ovegtime game of the season for the Dusty league, The I. and E. team outplayed their rivals 756 per cent of the time and should have won on the strict basis of the better team last night. However, R. and E. has now de- veloped a good outfit and some wins ought to be their lot from now on. Joe Luke at center makes a big difference. Last night he outjump- cd his opponent and played a fin¢ floor game. Joe is'a vaudeville performer, be- ing & tumbler and acrobat. He ex- pects to return to the stage within the next few weeks, i This young man holds two track records at the Y. M. C. A, the three standing broad jumps and the stand- ing broad jump. -— Mickey Luke, the flashy Landers captain, had a bad night last night, teing held without a field goal while he was in the game. | “Bupny” Swanson of It. and k. with seven from the floor was the ace of that game Landers plays the West Ends of Bristol in the preliminary game at the Armory Saturday night. The following Saturday they play in Simsbury. In looking over the bascketball situation it occurs to us that much the same problem arises a§ in foot- ball—where to give the cradit. In football it is the backs, who dash with the ball, who generally get the most praise. Their work is easier to sce, but it is the valiant linemen who make their work possible, Now in basketball lhs true. 1t is generally the forwards, | and center too, who get most of the scoring opportunities and as a result their work is the more brilliant to watch. They generally score the mest points, hence they are fhe ones most talked about. But let's not forget the v es- | gential guards. With loose playing | guards, any oppositiof could run wild on shooting and the most bril- | liant of forwards would not measure | up in view of the oppositions’ tallies, While giving Taylor and Reynoids, and Restelll too, full credit for their great work on caging the goals, | don't forget that there are two other | men on the team who contribute | just as mueh towarg victory, Johnny Bheehan, the brilliant and steady going eaptain, and “Tedders” Kil- duff, the guards, do their stuft in every game. “Tedders” gets more opportunity | to score because that is the game the Nats play. But just keep an eye glued on Johnny Sheehan and watch him work. He's after the opposing forward every minute, He keeps him closely guarded and in looking over the oppositions’ score the work of Johnny is evident. This boy is one of the best guards in the state. He plays a clean, fast game, is untiring in his efforts and has & eool head. His tesmwork {s excellent and {n back court passing he is hard to beat. It jsn't eften that the guards get written up~-but they deserve it just the same. Pete Moeskops, the ‘Nurmi” of | the bicyele tracks, s reported to have been offered a record amount to participate in the March six-day race at Madison Square Garden, the last one at the ancient arena. Moes- kops won the world sprint title the past four years and has appeared in | Boston, Newark, New York, Worces- ter and New Bedford. ‘While Ritola, who failed dismally last Saturday night in the Wilco JANICE | 'MEREDITH | ~ COMING—CAPITOL THEATER games In an attempt to win twe races, may enter the Baxter mile in the Now: York A.

(ourth mile, Desplte the recent succeases of Juck Delaney, the 1ight heavyweight from Brldgeport, Conn.,, many boxing followers expect .Jimmy Slattery, youthful Buffalo boxer, to win the six-round contest in New York ¥ri- day. Slattery already has scored a point victory over the Connecticut man. John C. Depler, only survivor of the Buck O'Nelll football regime at Columbia Unlversity, has been re. oppointed to ald the new head coach, Charley Crowley, In 1918 and 1819, an a center at Illinols, he was picked on Walter Camp's second All-Ameri- can team, and in 1919 and 1920 was generally selected’ for the All.Con. ference and All-Western first elev- ens. Returned also to his pesitien is Dr, Arthur E. Brides, who joined the staft and handled the linemen late in the 1924 season. Dr, Brides was attracted to Columbla by hls friend, Dr. Paul Withington, then chief as+ sistant to the late Percy D, Daugh- ton. In 1912, Dr. Bridess was line coach at Yale. He became head coach fn 1917 dnd 1919 asslsted Al Sharpe. In 1921 he became associ- ated with the Veterans' Bureau and later resumed his practice in New York. Although the Canadian Racing as- sociation has not allotted jts entire list of dates for the coming season, the Ontarlo Jockey club has been promised the week of May 23-30. Entries for the early closing events must be filed by March 16. Walter Johnson weighs heavily with the Washington Senators, champions of the baseball world, fig- ures on the annual roster of the or- ganization show. Johnson carried 200 pounds, and vises mere than six feet from the ground, the largest man ‘in the squad. Earl McNecley and Sam Rice, outficlders, weigh 155 pounds each, while Goose Goslin is in the light heavyweight class. Vean Gregg, pltcher-from Scattle, who has scen major league monds many times, is the father of the cham- pions, boasting 40 ycars of existence, The sterling performances of at least two track stars would stand out more prominently this season were it not for the glare of the limelight upon Paave Nurmi, the perpetual plodder, Loren Murchison has captured without dispute the in- door sprint crown while Alan Helf- |y, frich, great Penn State middle dis- |3 tance star, has proved himself su- preme at distances around a half mile, Neither, however, has gained the fame of his feats that would have come in any seagon where no Nurmi was known. Murchison, who departs for the Pacific coast this weck to join Charley Paddock in a world tour, cclcbrated his farewell Saturday at the Wilco meet with a brilliant vie- tory over kson Scholtz, who de- feated the Newark A, C, flier con- sistently outdoors last year. Helf- frich, at the same meet, conquered oine of his foremost rivals, George Marsters of Georgetown, in convine- ing fashion. Neither Murchison or Helffrich has been beaten at his fav- orite distance this winter, Vincent (Pepper) Martin, Frook- Iyn lightweight, has not quit the ring in spite of the knockout he sustained at the hands of Mike Bal- lerino last week that sent him to same holdefthe hospital for several days, Mar- tin has signed for several houts in the near futurg and hopes to stage a come-back, When the new Henderson “Cra- ter” in Long Island City is com- pleted In the spring with a seating | cupacity of 110,000, it will be the metropolitan distriot’s biggest athle- tie arena.
