The In jury caused him to leave the game. However, last night, despite a sore- ness and stiffness resulting from the blow, he played a whale of a gar winst Wallingford on the iocal rink.

Sometimes we wonder why it was that Rorty nmever went in for the pugilistic end of the game himself. Atter his several appearances in this it begins to appear that a roller ckey games isn't the spectacle it should be unless Rorty is handling the game. A word or two to offenders ap- pears to be the most drastic action he has been forced to take. Last night he detected a player in the act of making a stab with his hand the ball. “Don’t burn vour fingers, shouted “Red” and no more at- tempts were made in that direction. Tt was a pretty fair Christmas for New Britain sport teams. The roller hockey club took two out of three | 'GEARS games. The one loss came after one of the best hattles seen in the Amer- ican league this vear. It took an overtime period of seven minutes to fiaish the game. The New Britain basketball team took Bristol into camp twice and it stands now within one game of the league landing Atlas.
