NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY _——— m — — ———————————— Speaking of Sports There wasn't any doubt in any- ‘one’s mind which team was superior in Saturday's night's game between the National Guards and the Brook- lyn A. C. five of Waterbury. The New Britain team wiped out all former defeats by this team in the | game player at the state armory Whan they won by a 49 to 18 score. The Waterbury team showed good atuff only for little more than half of the first period and after that there was no doubt as to the out- come. In the second half, it was simply a question of how wide the margin of victory would be for the Guards. The Brooklyn five scored just six points in the second half, resulting from two field goals and two foul ghots. McNamara was the only Wa- terbury player who could cope with the fast playing of the Guards and even his speed was useless in the sccond frame. He caged four field 8oals and one foul in the game. Sturm got into the game second half and on one occa- sion he was heard to shout “Give me a shot.” He got the shot and a few more after that, but try as he might, e couldn't put the hall through the hoop. The Waterbury team brought a large crowd of rooters with it. Just before the game started, the entire Waterbury delegation, in high spi got into the gallery at the west end of the armory and sang several of | the Brooklyn A. C. songs. It really enjoyable. Mert Taylor is playing a game as good as any he ever played and his work in the contest Saturday night proved that the plan of Manager In sending him into the contest as a relief man is the better role for him. Mert doesn’t start fast, but when he is injected as a fresh man into the game, he goes like lightning. A handball match that is drawing a pile of interest among the fans who follow the sport is scheduled to be played at the Y. M. C. A. court to- night at 6:30 o'clock. Heinie Horn- kohl, who spends his spare moments Jjuggling sides of beef at Armour & Co. on Commercial strect, will meet Dick Murray, the big vegetable pur- veyor from the New Britain Market. . The betting is said to be two to on Heinie, but Dick says that v vegetarian can best a meat-toter any and every day in the week. Plans are all complete for the| basketball carnival at the state armory on Arch street Wednesda evening, February 16, which will be staged as a benefit for Tim Cronin, former court star. Cronin is desper- ately ill at the Hartford hospital and his condition isn’t improved any. His friends informed Manager Cla ence Lanpher of his plight and the benefit was started. There will be two games on the #chedule for the night. In the first, the Bristol Endees will p the Meriden Insilcos and in the second, the Meriden Endees will oppose the National Guards, the outcome of the games will have no bearings on the standing in the race for the title. The Dunn-Naily trio of Hartford and the Serenaders of New Britain will furnish a musical entertainment in between the halves and the games and the Paragon orchestra, led by John L. Sullivan, and donated William F. Dobson of the will furnish the instrumental music for the entertainers and for dancing. The tickets have been printed and are being distributed about the state. Five hundred of them have Deen taken in Hartford. ain fans who wish to for the benefit may do so by getting in touch with Manager Clarence Lanpher of the National Guards. The Washington Palace five, lead- | ers of the American Basketball league which is a strictly amateur Jeague, will play the National Guards at the state armory in New Britain on February 26. The Mohawks of Holyoke, one of the best teams in the east will oppose the locals on FFebr ary 19, The Atlas A. C. five of New Haven will oppose thé New Britain team next Saturday.

His physician, Dr. Warren Clark, late last night declared that the | danger period probably would passed today. | The poisoning is said to have| started from a slight scratch on the middle finger last week while Demp- sey and his wife, Estelle Taylor, the film actress, were on a motor trip| to San Francisco. i Dempsey was to have started for| his mountain camp tomorrow to be- gin trajning for his effort to regain| the heavyweight title which he lost| to Gene Tunney but the poisoning | has caused at least a temporary| abandonment of that program. The former champion was report- | ed improving last night. The swell- | ing and inflammation, now confined to his left hand, was diminishing. | The fighter's temperature was nor- | mal. | Dempsey partook of his first solid | food in three days when he ate milk toast last night. He had been on a liquid diet. The infection, which had to be lanced four times Satur- day, was again drained 'ast night.

He, Mack and Howley came north together, occupying the | drawing room and arriving here yesterday.
