Subs:—Scaffatunn, Adams. Hopeville! The biggest and fastest home game of the season is promised at the Boyg' club this evening, when the Hopeville Speed Boys of Water= bury will face the club's fast travel- ling guintet, Although many oppon- ents with big reputations have gone under big scoves in the past few weeks, there is no danger of Hope- ville doing this, for they are positive- Iy known to be one of the ‘astest amateur teams in the state and have demonstrated this to the entire satis- faction of the locals by defeating them twice already this season, there by capturing two of the three lost by the club this year. The Speed Boys took the first game, 49-37, in Waterbury, their lightning forward, Carrington, bom~ barding the hoop for 11 baskets. Then they came to this city and won again, 27-20. Each team was so im- pressed by the other that a third contest was arranged, and there has Nyborg .. anything besides Hope'#le for many weeks. Carrington and Brady, the fleet forwards of the visitors, are fastest pair that the locals have encounter- ed, and the guards have a terrible time keeping track of them. Frank Arburr, who has done good work for the club and for P. & I". Corbin, will endeavor to stop Carrington to- night, ‘while. Nvborg will have his hands full with Brady.

In previous games with the Speed Boys, the locals have heen nervous, but they are now so accustomed to smashing opponents’ winning streaks that they expect to play a cool and oful game. Last week they dis- chester, the other team which de- feated them, and they hope to pull the same stunt tonight. The Boys' club Resarves wiil play the Ally A. C. ot Farmingtoa in tn, preliminary.
