MERIDEN MAROONS SWAMP NEW BRITAIN ROLLER - NEW BRITAIN OUTCLASSED BY MERIDEN Maroons Take First Place liams and Pierce Show HOCKEY in American League—Wil- Wonder Form on Floor— Purcell Scintillates at Goal With 91 Stops—Local Defense Shattered by Attack of Visitors — Hard- ware City Team Shows Deplorable Form. PC.I .Nfli 545 500 ¢ Meriden . New Britain ,.... Waterbury Hartford 400 Wallingford -4 400 | Games Tonight | Waterbury at Hartford. ‘Wallingford at Meriden. Completely outclassed at every| turn of the wheel, the New Britain roller hockey club was swamped by the Meriden Maroons in an Ameri- can league game last night by the | score of 8 to 1. The difference in the play of the two combinations was 80 marked that there was no comparison. New Britain put up the poorest exhibition seen on the local rink this year and as Meriden kept| piling up the goals going Into the| third period, it became only a ques- | tion of just how large the Silver | City's margin of victory would be. A | crowded house sat in on the game but the bleachers were more than half empty before half of the third period had been played and disgust was expressed on all sides. i It appeared last night that New Britain has lost about 95 per cent of the form the team showed when it ran up a string of four straight victories to lead the league, Last night the locals went into second place with Meriden in the driver's seat, Boucher and Alexander worked hard and bombarded Jimmy Purcell, | Meriden goal tender, with all sorts of shots resulting in his having 91 stops, but Archie Muirhead at cen- ter was in particularly poor form and the east with which the Meri- den star rushers, Williams and Pierce, got by him gave them a big | advantage over the New Britain | scoring combination, Blount, at| goal, was at a big disadvantage with the two sharpshooters of the Silver ity quintet firing away at him and, left alone, he was hard put to it to keep more goals out than were real- ly made by the Meriden team. New Britain's team work, except for the passing of Boucher and Alexander, was missing. Brown and Muirhead were hurried on every shot and Meriden almost always re- covered the ball after losing it in the vicinity of New Britain's cage. Time after time-one or the other of the rushers would get set for a pass and | wduld be boxed off. The pass would | come directly in front of the cage. | The other rusher would be blocked off and no one was there to get it. | That was the story all night. The first périod saw both teams battling hard for & score. Plerce caged two goals for Meriden giving the Silver | City team an edge. Willlams got two and Morrison on ein the second | frame making it five to nothing. Boucher got New Britain's only score at the opening of the third period but Williams caged three for Meri- | den before the game ended. New Britain's great defense was entirely missing ag the Meriden players sped down the floor at will. The locals had nothing to cheer about though it must be said that Boucher and Alexander were up to, standard in their play. Purcell's| great work at goal prevented them | from making New Britain’s thrusts count. Unanimous opinion is given that the local team can play much | hetter hockey than was exhibited last night, especially in the positions that showed the greatest weakness during the game. New Britain plays in Waterbury Saturday night and Meriden opens up Sunday hockey here Sunday aft- ernoon. The summary: New Britain Alexander .. Boucher Muirhead rown Blount . L. 4 5 5 6 L] Meriden .

BAN ON GERMAN STAR IS LIFTED Dr. Peltzer's Status Up to Amateur Athletic Union New York, Jan. 20 UPM—Competl- tion by Dr. Otto Peltzer, German track star, in American meets rest. ed with the Amateur Athletic Union today, In a cablegram from the German athletic body to the Union, the ban previously imposed on Peltzer for. bidding him to run here was lifted. It read: “Dr. Peltzer three starts after in- ternational and union determination approved.” This was explained to mean that Peltzer may run in three races pro- viding permission is secured from the International Amateur Athletic federation and the amateur body of the United States. Inasmuch as approval is not re- | quired from the finternational or- ganization when the ruling athletic {powers of the two countries con- |cerned agree, the matter is now up to the Union which is taking a mail vote from its foreign relations com- mittee, A favorable vote was expected. In the event Peltzer is permitted to run, he probably will appear in a German athletic club here while his other two performances will take place in other sections of the coun- try, presumably in the middle west and on the Pacific coast. At present he is in 8an Francisco. Peltzer, who is holder of the world's half mile record, is the con- queror of Paavo Nurmi, the Phan- tom Finn, and Edwin Wide of Bwed- en, If the amateur officials of this country allow him to run, he will |have an opportunity of matching strides with Lloyd Hahn of the Bos- ton A. A., America's premier middle distance runner. HURRICANES WIN Dick Hyland’'s Roller Hockey Com- bination Gets Revenge Over “Boomer” Dill's Crew. Hyland’s Hurricanes got revenge on Dill's Pickles last night in the preliminary roller hockey game at the Stanley Arena by trimming them by the score of 6 to 3. The Pickles featuring “Tanky” Selander and “Boomer” Dill, the major domo of the squad, were unable to penetrate the tight defense thrown up by their opponents. Harry Kieffer worked in his usual style with Keeley proving to be the miin scoring ace of the winning combination. La Pointe played a nice game on the floor while Eddie Hayes was exceptionally good in the zoal well did noble work for the losing team. The summary: Hurricanes Dill's Pickles La Pointe .. 1st rush H.

The South Church Intermediates stayed in the Intermediate County I"\'" league race last night when Captain Wilton Morey went on & second-period scoring spree and gave his team enough points to de- defeat the State Trade school by 19-1¢ in & rather slow game at the Boys' club. The winners were still without the services of the injured Rockwell, while Cohen was missing from the school lineyp, and neither team played any too high a brand of basketball. The church attack was able to get under way in only one quarter, while the achool players missed an enormous number of easy shots. Not's point was made from the floor during the entire firet period, the teams struggling fruitiessly to locate the hoop, the only scores com- ing on foul shots by Anderson and Frost. As the second period opened Bell made a one-pointer for New Britain and right afterwarde Morey picked up & loose ball under the basket and tossed it through the netting to put his team ahead. He scored again on the one-two play and then made a stunning shot from beyond.the foul line while complete- ly surrounded by school players. Hubbel finally scored for the osers, but Morey came back with three’ pointa and Bell with a goal to make the tally 12-¢ at the half. The school team rallied in the third quarter, Anderson and Pond showing the way, but the church quintet managed to keep a 15-10 lead. In the final session the teams fought evenly and made two field goals each. Morey had a great night, getting 13 of his team's 19 points. Bell shot little, contenting himself with feed- ing his mate and doing this effect- tvely. Peck, in his first full game, was weak at shooting but played most creditably otherwise and show- ed much promise. He and May took the ball off the backboard every time and prevented the school from following up its shots, Potts played a h#¥d and rushing game. Pond and Anderson featured for the Trade school, but both blew many shots. The game was very clean. The sum- mary: South Church Intcrmediates 2 . Bell, rf .. Morey, 1t Peck, ¢ .. Potts, rg .

The most notable addition to the team is First Baseman George Kel- | ley, bought froia Minneepolis, al- though he played at Newark, N. J.. last year. Kelley has been a suc- !five years and compiled 44 homers two years ago with Buffalo. Despite conflicting reports, Fres-| eo Thompson will be back on sec- ond base. He is one of the most gile keystone tenders in the Nn-| ional league. The veteran Heinie Sand will return to his old position at shortstop. Hal Dietrich, of Ports- mouth, Va., will be Sand's under study. A struggle for third base will take place between Barney Friberg, & near veteran, and A. C. (Ace) Whit- |ney, erstwhile New Orleans player and voted the best inflelder in the Bouthern association last year. Whitney comes highly recom- mended to the Phils. He sports a .333 batting average, is a base steal- er and possesses @& rifle throwing |arm. One of the best all-around utility men in the National league, Roggy Wrightstone, 2 handy man with the bat, will be available for emergency duty in almost any position and will act as pinch-hitter. At the last bascball meeting, the Phillies disposed of Outfielder John- . Selander lcaping. Tn the sccond half he made ny Mokan, Catcher Bubbles Jonnard and Shortstop Jimmy Cooney in ex- . Dill angles and distances, caging exactly change for Pitcher Jimmy Ring and Catcher John Schulte. Ring was anxious to play in the east and his | experience should be an asset to the Philadelphia team. The twirling corps is stronger than in recent years. It consists of Frank Ulrich, a right handed ace; Claude Willoughby, Alex Ferguson, Art De- catur, veteran right handed slingers; Clarence Mitchell, Herb Pruett and Lester Sweetland, southpaws. There §s a flock of impressive rcomers, Walsh and Taber from stern league; Benge from Waco; Greenc of Portsmouth and many other lesser lights. At least four of the rookics are said to pos- sess cnough stuff to remain in the ! big league. In the outficld, Cy Williams, who tied with Hack Wilson for home run honors last year with thirty, will probably altcrnate with Denny Soth- if he does not care te play through the entire season. Cy is & real veteran but he still retains the knack of circuit clouting. Center field will be guarded by Fred Leach, a deadly hitter in the pinch, while Dick Spalding will hold forth in left. Both led the league in fielding their positions last season. | Al Nixon and Holman will be sub- stitutcs, giving the Phils two out- flelders. The catching department is led by Captain Jimmy Wilson, with Schulte and O'Donnell in rescrve. Manager Shotton will be assisted by Fred Hunter, formerly of Syra- cuse. The pitchers and catchers will arrive in camp February 20, This year the P'hils have shifted thelr 1s u little fat. The two runners are training in southern California for the Olympic games, but they will meet only socially in Amsterdam as Paddock is a sprinter and the doctor is one of the world's greatest middle distance runners. training site to Winter Haven in Central Florida. Beventeen pitchers will take the spring conditioning jaunt, assuring the Phillies plenty of batting practice, DELANEY VS, HEENEY Bridgeporter to Get Chance to Make Piace of Logical Comtender for Tunney’s Crown. New York, Jan. 20 (P—Efforts to produce a challenger for Gene Tun- ney’'s championship had assumed 'definite form again today with the matching of Jack Delaney and Tom Heeney for a 16-round strugsgle in Madison Square Garden, March 1, After considerable dickerings, terms were agreed upon yesterday, with the contracts negotiated by John M. Chapman, Tex Rickard's new assistant who heretofore has been identified chiefly as promoter of the six-day bieycle races. Under Rickard's new heavywelght elimination plan, the winner of the Heeney-Delaney affair will in turn tussle with the victor of a proposed {tilt between Jack Sharkey and John- ny Risko.

Last fall the football deteat was a hard pill to swallow and if the basketball team can run up a 75 to 10 score, it will do so. Last year Hartford gave New Brit- ain its first basketball defeat when the Red and Gold team was defend- ing state honors which it had won the year before. This game came just after Al Havlick, regular for- ward, was declared ineligible. Later New Britain lost its regular center and its other forward, Captain Mary- has forged steadily forward since.

Tomorrow night's same is considered to be one of the crucial games of the year for the Hardware City crew aa it will prove i the Hardware City quintet is able to throw off the “Indian 8ign" that the Silver City crew has held’ over it for two successive years, Meriden will present an excep- tionally strong lineup in the game (tomorrow night. Nothing definite has been announced yet regarding the chances of Jerry Conway, star from Holyoke, playing with the team. Jerry has signed as a mem- ber of Vic Hanson's Syracuse Pro- fessional team but he may be on deck with Meriden tomorrow night. If he is, Meriden's attack will be as strong as it ever has been. If he is not with the lineup, the Meriden team will be on the short end of the betting. The Endees took the New Britain National Guards into camp twice last year and again this season, the Silver City team duplicated the perform- ance. This year's two defeats came |at a critical time and were especially hurtful because had New Britaln won both contests, it would have been tied with Atlas of New Haven for first place because as it happen- ed, the Bristol Endees defeated the New Haven team last week. On paper. the New Britain team appeared to be stronger both years but in actual playing, Meriden had the edge. This has led many to be- lieve in the physchological idea of an “Indian sign.” This might be dis- pelled tomorrow night. Cook and Bissell will alternate with Carroll at forwards, Conway or Btavinitsky will be at center and Lingner will fill another guard posi- tion. The visitors will have a large ‘lQlllfl of reserve material and sev- eral combinations may be used dur- ing the game. Preliminary Game P. & F. Corbin girls will have a chance to go into a tie for first place with Landers if they beat the Uni- versals tomorrow night in the pre- liminary game. After Corbins' de- |feat of the Stanley Rule recently, their chances of trimming Landers tomorrow night are exceedingly bright. Landers holds the lead with | four games won and none lost while P. & F. has won three and lost one. i Deep interest is being shown in the game.
