Speaking of Sports Tomorrow night, at the armory, the Springfield ¥, M, H. A, with a verdict oyer the locals, come here tp give the Nats a chance to get r¢- venge, And the boys are out to get it. Last week it was reported dis§en. sfon in the ranks of the Nats that held the attention of the basketball followers about the state. This week the scene bas shifted _to Hartford where the Dixies and Kaceys are in the limelight. In the first place, considerable dis- sension is reported within the rankg of the Dixies, where it is reported, cverything is not all peaceful, The name of Waterman, the clever guard, is being linked with’ rumors of trou- | bie while the manager himself is oc- casfonally named. Then the Kaceys—the poor down- trodden Kaceys are now even deeper in the mire and their game with the West Sides in the City league, sched- uled for tonight, has been cancelled, This s because they cannot get players. The last straw came when Rey- nolds, Restelli and Sheehan of the Nats handed in their uniforms to de- vote their entire energics to the New Britain team. Indications now are that the Kaceys may drop trom the city#series in Hartford and that this year will end of that organization as a baskft- ball contender. So, all in all, the loeal fans and tcam need not feel that last week's IUMPUS OF near-rumpus was any- thing to get unduly excited about. The ~ Boys' * club’ overwhelmed Hopeville last night, 46-15, in one of the fastest games of the season here. The locals showed no defect in pussing, shooting, guarding or head- work and even the fast Carrington found the pace too hot for him. Several of the Gasco players wit- nessed the game, and after it was over they admitted that they could not defeat, the club it it continued at its present pace. And, looking over the Gasco lineup, that is some admission. It was the tenth straight victor: tor the club. During that run of wins the locals have scored 459 points to ‘thelr opponents’ 212, The Bo. ctub Reserves, by de- feating the Ally A. C. of Unionville, also ran their winning streak to ten games. In those ten games they have run up 360 points as against 168 for thefr victims. The South Congregational teams of Hartford and New Britain will face eaéh other again at the Boys' club tomorrow night. The locals won the first hectic encounter, 49-48, by erica No sacrifice in quality. Same good old Tuzedo properly aged — Perfectly blended— always FRESH. Every dealer’s supply is dated.

Yale, delving into its material to find timber with which to stem the flood of scores that has left the New Haven five swamped in the Eastern Intercolleglate basketball league, ap- pears to have discovered a com- \petent forward in Lackey, who last night against Princeton, in his sec- ond game, accounted for fifteen of his team'’s points, the high figures for the league this scason. Herbert H. Hammer, youthful billiardist from Newark, N. J., fur- nished the surprise of the opening play in the national amateur 18,2 balkline play in New York yesterday when he defeated John A. Clinton, Jr,, of Pittsburgh, 800 to 280, in a brilliant match, Hammer was 120 points behind after the tenth inning but a serles of five long runs gar- ried him to even terms and he won when Clinton missed on a compara- tively easy shot with only two to go. Brooklyn still awaits the signed contracts of sevgral regulars al- though Manager Wilbert Robinson is practically assured of an infield with High, Johnston and Tierney at work. Jacques Fournier, first base- man of home run abilities, remains outside the fold and definite word from Milton Stock is awalted with (some anxiety, who has played third base, m: be started at that posi- tion by Robinson, in an elfort to stregnthen the combination. He will add hitting strength wherever he plays, according to the Brooklyn chief. Tierne; Joe Stecher threw Wiadek Zbyszko in 39 minutes, 13 seconds, in a bout in New York last night which was advertised as a test to see which man would challenge Wayne (Big) Munn, the former collegian who re- cently captured the title from Ed (Strangler) Lewis. Stecher used a hody scissors to uccomplish the Pole's defeat. Harry Wills, negro heavyweight, and Tommy Gibbons, the St. Paul man who stood off Champion Jack Dempsey for fifteen warm rounds in the Shelby sands, may hear some- {thing from the New York state ath- letic commission at its semi-weekly meeting today. Challenges have been filed and the legal $2,600 placed by- cach party. Both desire to meet the champion before he retires. { : | Dartmouth’s Great Five Is Winner Over Columbia New York, 1eb. 24, —Dartmouth’s tormidable basketball quintet ad- vanced a step further in its quest for the championship of the Eastern Intercollegiate league by @®fcating !
