New Britain at Meriden | Anyone who before Jlast uight Joubted that the sport rivalry that| S has e for years between Hart- | ford and New Britain had meilowed | vith the passing of years, nceds no \rgument to convince him that the | ‘celing is more intense now than | cver especially after the roller hock- | v game staged at the Stanley Arena last night. New Britain, as was to ) capected, defeated Hartford, the | score, incidentally being 7 to 3 The contest was one of the wildest | scen here this season. Both tes lost a goul on fouls though lidn't have any effect on the i score, but it was the ter: ific | waged between the two quintets that | kept an overflow crowd of neariy de- | jiented fans on their fect from the Z rst whistle to the last bell. 5 As was predicted, 4 Jean, ormer idol of the New Britain| roller hockey following, was at the | opposite extreme of public favor last | night.

In + the last period, when Jean locked ! Boucher against the bank, the fans in the hall all jumped to their feet| in a frenzy of excitement. Jean | punched Mederick Perry, former po- | iceman, in the eye through the net and put a “shiner” there. For a time 1t looked as it Jean was to be arrested, but Perry .refused to press any charges, and after the gam Jean apologized and both men shook hands, It was a fine act of sports- manship on the part of the local fan, A .crowd of fans numbering several hundreds which had gather- ed on Church street after the con- test was sent home by the police. In the game itself, New Britain completely outplayed Hartford, Hart of the visiting team #cored the first goal, but that was only the signal for the New Britain quintet to get going. Boucher followed Hart in four minutes with New Britain's first . point, a neat shot from in front of E the cage.

READ HERALD CLASSIFIED ADS \ FOR BEST RESULTS T New York, Jan. 13 UP—It appears now that it John McGraw has any idea of grooming a successor to him- solf as manager of the Giants he must look for some one besides a second baseman. The two keystone workers who have beep picked in Fescent years as heirs apparent to the McGraw throne both have gone away from here on short notice, & circumstance that Jends color to the expert theory that the money ‘nterests behind the Giangs desire to keep the “Little Napoleon” lashed to the helm. Just four yeara ago, Fravk Frisch, a product of McGraw's development- ing skill, was publicly picked out as the man upon whoit the veteran's mantlo would fall. But the Fordham Flash doveloped what McGraw re- garded as temperamental tendencies. He was traded to Bt. Louis in the deal that brought the great Rogers Hornsby to the Metropolitan fold as captain and new *logical successor” to McGraw, | Hornsby, in an interview with the Associated «Press Inte last season sald: ‘I would rather work for McGraw than any other man in baseball. I have the utmost respect for his judgment and methods. I think, in return, Our ideas run along the same line. McGraw is a fighter. He has for- gotten moré baseball than I -7ill ever know. It's all business with him. That's what I like,. When McGraw {ssues an order no one ques- tions it. He may be wrong but if he he will take the blame.” This was typical or seeming har- mony of thought and action between the veteran and his field leader. In view of such a relationship it is difficult for observers to reconcile the deal that sends Hornsby to the Braves, leaving the Glants without a seasoned field player as well as a second baseman of knbwn quality. It also leaves the Giants without a “Crown Prince,” unless the veter- an coach, Roger Bresnahan, is ele- vated to that position. The old pack- stop 18 to have charge of the battery squad at training camp but this can hardly be construed as a menace to McGraw's control, such as the club owners apparently desired to avoid by getting rid of the more aggressive Hornsby. Bresnahan, if he has any mana- gerial ambitions, has the advantage of not being a second baseman, McGraw will be 65 years old next April. His' health has not always been of the best in recent years but the Giants may reasonably expect him to retain active charge of the team for five to ten years more. Connie Mack, tall tutor of the Ath- letics, will be 66 this year, but if he has any though's of retiring, he hasn’t aired them in public. Wilbert Robinson, Brooklyn pilot and a team-mate of McGraw's on the old Baltimore Orioles, will cele- brate his 61st birthday this year.
