Sinak!ng of Sports ‘The Nita opened with victory and vlosed with one, but their closity victory over the Dixies was probably the swéetést of any they won this season, ‘Not only did they defeat the Hartford boys, but alse they clearly wnd cleverly outplayed them in every dspartment of the game, They shot five more goals from the field They made five more from the free throw liné and had three less porsonal fouls called. All In all, the Nats, in their final game, staged a great come-back that I¢aves the fans with pleasant mem- orles of their basketball ability, The Dixies certainly missed their [night when It meets the All-Stars of captain, Tommy Murphy. Somehow or other even though other players are just as good as he, the team stems 108t without him, Incidentally; Satupday night's game Was the 187th this sason that Ref- ¢ree Dick Dillon has worked—and hé has ten more to go before he hangs up his shoes and whistle, Dick has been calling them for 20 vears notw, and this has been his bustest year in the entire two dec- ndes, The Dixies, defeated here Satur. day night, go to Eimwood tonight to play the villagers. Torrington plays Oregon tomer- row in the interscholastic basketball lournament at Chieago. Fddie Shevlin and Rocky Smith, Who gave such a great show in Hartford last Thursday night, are not likely to be matched again soon according to the dope from Hart. ford matchmakers. The matchmak- cra are willing, but the hoxers are none t6o cager to mix it up again. Fach took terrific punishment last week. Red Chapman of Chelsea, Mass,, forward with a unique claim. He seeks recognition as rightful holder of the featherweight champlonship held by Kid Kaplan, He bases his claim on the fact that he got a de- cislon over Johnny Dundee a week age. Cardio, Chapman's manager, claims that Chapman weighed fh at 1253 pounds, within the feather- weight limit ,of 126 pounds, at 3 o'clock on the day of his bout with Dundee. When Dundes heard of (hig Cardio said, he threatened to ‘run out” of the bout unless Chap- man weighed over the class limit. Accordi®y, Chapman’s manager said, he sent the Chelsea boxer out to drink milk, and at 3:20 o'clock 'here was a second weighing-in, this time Chapman tipping the scales at 127 pounds. “C'Hapman ‘was within the limit of the featherweight class at the of- ficial weighing-in time, and so in Aefeating Dundes he took over Dun- dee's claims to the title,” Cardie said. “State boxing commission cannot make world champions, and Dun- dee, because he is still in eompeti- tion, remained champion until he lost to Chapman Monday night. Now Chapman will claim the title because he has earned it.” The Atlas of New Haven won an overtime game from the Meriden Endees Saturday night 30-26.

Another victory tonight would allow the local aggregation to finish with {Mts run still unbrokeén and with a chance to add still more games to its streak next winter. At any rate, it is fitting that the club should close the season with its 23rd game, The visiting team is a good deal {of an unknown quantity, although it is known to be made up of fast players, the men being hand-picked from the city league in the up-state place. Mandell, the right forward, led the league in scoring, while Fatty Haggerty, who will hold down the opposite corner of the floor, Is another dangerous man, Prue at center and Ireal and Rabinowitz at guard have made names for them- selves this season, The Thread City boys also hope to bring along Des- singer, the star of the fast Plainfleld Army and Navy club quintet, | Against this array of talent, the locals will pit the same team which has proved so effective in the past, although it is. extremely unlikely |that Frank Arburr will play.

Pate Kerelejza, rapidly rounding into a star, and Ray An- derson, already a star for some Years, will be at forwards. The All- Stars’ offense will have to cope with the speedy Ilmer Nyborg and the battling Stanley Gotowala, a light but hard-working pair. The Boys' Club Reserves will play the preliminary game with the Lib- erty A. C. of South Marchester, a feam which defeated them by a single point earlier in the season.
