SEIOLOCELLOILEREHEE LD Speaking of Sports PEPEPEPE VG The Bristol Endees pinned two de- feats on the Meriden Endees, thereby prictically eliminating the Silver City aggregation from the running for the state champlonghip. The last game was played in Meriden. The National, Guards will meet the Meriden team at the state armory in this city a week from Wednesday | night, on January 12. Some of the New Britain fans who happened to be in Meriden last Saturday night, viewed the game between Meriden and Bristol and naturally rooted for Bristol to win. The Meriden fans told the local men to be sure and bring thelr money with them when Meriden plays here and from all re- ports, the invitation is going to be accepted. The National Guards were never in better form than they were agalinst the City College club Satur- day night. The team worked to per- fection and set back the strong New | received any money to throw games, York team in good order. Plalnfield, one of the teams that | has beaten the Guards this y plays in this city nmext Saturday night. The first game, played in Plainfield, under professional rules and the second this Saturday night will be under amateur rules. The Guards should win this game and even up matters with the Plain- field aggregation. Meriden then ' comes the Wednesday nicht after wards and New Britain will have the opportunity of evening up the score all around. The Guards have a game schedul- | od with the Atlas also for a b‘rldn” night in New Haven soon. This brings into the struggle for the state | championship, another team wup! among the leaders. The amateur fight tournaments will be resumed at the state armo in this city again this week and it is expected that the feature hout of the night will bring tozether Paul Terzo of Hartford and Ray Hall of the same city. Terzo was knocked out in the first round of the meeting between tha two several weeks ago in this city, but he feels that he can beat Hall in another moeting. This desire of his to meet Hall a second | time, will be gratified by the Mo- hawk A.
