The races in both the Roller Hockey and State Basketball leagues bave reached the stage where excite- rnnt reigns at every gam. Meriden n the hockey circuit which seemed o have a comfortable lead, has been overhauled by Holyoke in quick suc- kession. The Massachusetts team Yesterday was in first place for the first time this year while last night Waterbury went into a tie for the leadership with Meriden through a defeat administered to Holyoke.

A., avhich has charge of the Industrial Baskctball leagues, is holding an fm- 'portant meeting this afternoon at & oclock in the Y. M. C. A. The league has been meeting with re- verses In almost all of its Tuesday night attempts and steps will have to be taken to change this situation. Just what the contemplated ac tion to be taken tonight will be is a question that will be des the confab. There is no po treasury behind the athlet tee or the Industrial Council and the body cannot stand losses every week. The New Year will probably bring out a number of amateur boxers 4n this city. Several inquiries have [been received at this office relat to securing amateur boxing license but the names of the applicants have all been referred to the offi- ‘ctals of the Mohawk A. C., who are ‘also members of the Connecticut A. A. U. Those inquiring about this matter should get in touch with one of the officials of the club for infor- 'mation regarding a sanction to fight |, in the amateur tournaments. The sanctions can be secured only through the A. A. U, and the matter | could be gpeeded up by applying to the officials of the Mohawk A. C. 'which represents this city in the 'amateur body. New Britain, for a city of its size, where amateur fighting holds the {center of popular interest, is lack- ing in the development of good ama- teur fighters. Jimmy Clinch and his brother Johnny were the outstanding | stars of the game here. Jimmy then entered the professional ranks and left the field clear for his brother Johnny. Johnny’s work fn the ring has kept New Britain in the limelight as far as amateur boxing has been con- cerned but the city should be pro- ductive of plenty more boxers. Others who have entered the game haven't made a great deal of head- way and where last year there was | a considerable number of boxers, representing this city, the number | has decreased greatly until Clinch is the outstanding performer. “Tar and Feathered” Worker Stricken Dumb Houston, Tex., Dec. 15 (A—Tor- ture Inflicted while his body was covered with a coat of tar and| teathers, has temporarily sealed the | contin- | from | ve “| WITH THE BOWLERS PALACE ALLEYS SPECIAL MATCH 33—1452 |lations of the service forces of the Men‘al di . told the court yes- 'sum Governor Alvan T.
