Speaking of Sports Well, the Nats have shown which is the best team—New Britain or Meriden—énd that's that. * Now next Tuesday night in Hart- ford they havg a chance to prove to Doc Cohen and his Lyrics which {s the better outfit, And the boys also want to give the Dixies a good send-off just be- fore they start west by trouncing them as well. They have thefr chance for this on Saturday night, The Dixies went to Meriden last sht and handed the West Sides a 4 defeat, Company G of Manchester lost a surprise gaume 29.28 to the Cheney * Lirothers A. C. five lust night. Here's almost a record. Stamford Ligh closed its season yesterday by feating Massec school 98-8, Stam- tord has won 15 and lost 3 games, If there ever was a breach be- tween the plpayers on the Nats, it has now been completely healed. There were no cliques last night, and the passwork completely baffled the Endees, Navin of the visitors evidently doesn't belleve in training rules. When the locals were taking their mouthfuls of water during the sec- ond half, Navin came over and drank all that was left in the water bottle, and that was not a little, Kilduft pulled a neat trick when umping against a taller man, I figured his opponent would tap th ball backwards, so, instead of jump- ing, be ran around behind his oppo- nent and caught the ball as it fell, But, as so often happens in a ¢ like this, he spoiled thg effect hy im- mediately hurling the bail out of Lounds. The crowd was kept ducking when the Endees got the ball, for they continually threw the ball oft the court : Nover until last night did we rea- lize why Landers wore green uni- forms. Then we noticed that the team has both “‘Mickey” Luke and *“Mickey” Bucherri, so it was all ex- plained. The National Guard Reserves have been signed to play the Boys' club on Monday, March 16. The club be- lieves them below its class, but the Reserves have been yelling “afraid” 80 much that a contest has finally been arranged, From the way the Teserves played last night, it won't be much of a “‘contest.” The independent teams with no home floor and no organization play hob with basketball in this city. Some of them seem to think that an organized team should go to the ex- pense of hiring a floor and then Jet them come in and play free of ‘harge. And a few have the terrific rall to expect a guarantee in addi- tion. Guarantees among amateur teams ara supposed to cover visiting teams' expenses, and how a local team can expect one for playing on a flopr here is beyond the ken of normal man. 1t is only fair that a “wildeat” or “o'rphan” team should pay half the expense of hiring a court, especially since they can not give a return game, John M.
