NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, JANUARY %, 1628, NEW BRITAIN BASKETBALL TEAM DEMONSTRATES SUPERIORITY OVER RENAISSANCE FIVE—LOCAL HOCKEY QUINTET EVENS MATTERS WITH WALLINGFORD—BRISTOL MAY HAVE TEAM IN AMERICAN LEAGUE — NEW BRITAIN AGAIN WINS NO BREAK INTIE BRISTOL MAY BE ENTERED OVER RENAISSANCE FIVE Local Basketball Quintet Over Colored Champions—Jimmy Zekzewski Runs Wild to Score Six Baskets in Second Half—Defense of Both Teams in Opening Session is Remarkable— Count is 13-All at End of Opening Frame. Doubt concerning the ability of ¢ the New Britain basketball team to defeat the Renalssance Five of New York, colored champlons of the/ world, was dispelled Saturday night | at the Stanley Arena on Church | street when the local stdte league | quintet handed the visiting aggre- gation its second defeat of the sea- son by a 43 to 31 score. Not only did the New Britain tcam defeat the colored stars but it played them on even terms in the first period and then rose to great heights and out- played the famous combination in the second half beth on the floor and in shooting. The highly-touted team play of the visiting team was repeatedly | shattered by the defense of the local tcam and although on various plays | the colored team threatened to take the lead in a rush for the victory, | New Britain came back strongly to | square accounts and lash out in a striking offensive that branded the team Saturday night as invincible. The two quintets played cach other to a standstill in the first half in one of the most thrilling| classics of defensive play ever seen ! on a local floor. At the half time | whistle, the score stood at 13 all due | to the tight work of the players on | the two teams in guarding their | respective goals. The New Yorkers | outscored the visitors from the floor in this session five ficld baskets to | four but clever foul shooting by Al Sloman who caged three out of four | tries, evened the count. In the second half, Jimmy Zak- | zewskl, former Fordham university star, ran wild on a scoring rampage | and caged six field goals to send New Britain wcll on the hard earned win. Jenkins, -] visitors' best bet and one of the, most clever basketball players ever | seen in action in these parts, caged | five spectacular fleld baskets for his | team in the second frame but the! work of Johnny Sheehan and Tom ! Leary in keeping the forwards, | “Cappy” Ricks and fiall, scoreless, | deprived Jenkins of some badly needed help. | | New Britain's pass work and its team play equalled in every respect | the best that the visitors could of- | fer. The colored stars, famed far and wide for their ability both on | the floor and in shooting, met more | than their match. It was a case of | a well balanced New Britain team playing basketball as it should be played against opposition of the! most worthy sort. | First Halt | Very seldom has a defensive game ' such as was put up in the first half of the game by both sides, been seen | in New Britain. For more than| three minutes, the game waged fast | and furiously without cither team getting a chance to score. At the! 3:10 mark Tom Leary dropped in the first point of the game from the free throw line; at ‘the 5:30 mark, | Fiall tied the score on a like at- tempt; at 7:20, Rubenstein was| ‘glven a shot on a foul and he added | & point for the home team; at §:11. “Lanky” Sanders tied the count also on a foul try. Just as the watch said nine min- utes, Ricks put the New York team in the lead for the first time dur- | ing the game, also on a foul shot. No field goals had been scored to this time and a fierce baftle of fast playing was being staged. At o: Sloman made another free try to tie |, the count at 3 zll. At 10:40, the ice was broken. Ricks got clear away to dribble in fast and score ‘the first field baskct of the game. New Britain came back strong and at 12:10, Sloman got New Britain's first floor shot and | the score was again tied. Zakzewskl then took a dribble through the con- | ter and one-handed two points through the net. Sanders followed | him at 13 minutes to tic the count again. It was a sec-saw affair. Ricks again got loose and caged a pretty shot from the foul line. Rubenstein came around fast .stole away from | his guard and popped one in to tie the count. He followed this in quick order with another putting Britain in the lead, Flall tied the count at 16 minutes at 11 all. Sloman gave New Brit- ain & point from the complimentary | strips and added another a minute later giving New Britain a lea two points. At the 15:10 mark kins popped a long ficld basket to! tie the count at half time at 13-all. Second Half | The New York tcam started the second perfod with a flashy attack. | At the 18 second mark, Sanders got | loose to put in a neat shot for two | points, Saitch scored a free try, giv- | ing the Renaissance Five a lead of threa points, Here, duo fo the Jimmy Zakzewsk stock of the sit: hirlwind attack th itors literally oft their fect. - zewski got a shot from a dribble and Sloman followed him with a peg | from the side putting the home club | in the lead 17 to 16.

Chrysler .0 Flashing plenty o speed and team work that brands it as one of the bost teams in the league, the Dodge | team in the amateur league scored | an casy 8 to 3 victory over the Nash | quintet ‘n the preliminary to the| New Britain-Wallingford game at the Stanley Arena yesterday after- noon. The speed of the winning crew was remarkable considering | that it was its second game and the | Naosh team appeaged slow by com- | arison. The forward combination of Fu- sari and Eddie McAloon, Jr. (by re- | quest) played a pretty game snak- | ing passes across the floor from onc to the other d bringing the ball {rue to the Nash cage for goals. Charlic McAloon was a star at cen- | 1 .1 s |ter and with Dick Hyland on the | defense and Herbie Sautter in the ! cage, there was little chance for the | Nash team to break through for | many scores. Maity Hayes was a bit off form in ay's game but despite this, he played a pretty game. Corbett put | up a stiff defense but the speed of | the opposition was too much for him. | The score was tied at 1 all at the end of the first period but the sec- | ond period was all Dodge with five | goals being scored. Nash made a good attempt to come hack in the last frame, but red-jerseycd players' efforts were equalled by their op- ponents. The summary: Dodge Fusari .... | Ni ....... M. Hayes ..

Bristol may be represented in the American Roller Hockey league, ac- cording to a report of negotiations which have been atarted between a party of New Britain men and offi- cials of the league, There i3 a pos- sibility that the present Wallingford team may be purchased and trans- ferred to Bristol or a new combina- tion may be organized to represent Offers by the New Britain parties and by the management of the Wallingford club have been made, it is understood, and a definite an. ver on the proposition is expected this week. If the Wallingford own- ers will gell, the local men, it is un- derstood, will purchase the club and its entire equipment while if the franchise stays in Wallingford, a new outfit will be assembled. It is proposed to play Bristol's| home games at Red Men's hall. This place has been declared suitable for the game and seating capacity for more ‘than 700 patrons will be ar- ranged within, It is understood that an expert has been hired to arrange the rink and bleachers and he has al- ready stated that the ball will be as large, it not larger, than that now in 1t Bristol has a new team, it will | mean that the league will have six clubs in operation. If Wallingtord is s0ld to Bristol, the circuit will re- main with its present status of five clubs intact. Detalls of the nights on which game will be played will be ar- ranged when the deal is completed. The proposition has already been submitted to the officials of the league and they have expressed themselves in favor of either of the ! two proposed moves. | FELDMAN LEADING BASKET TOSSERS Bristol Forward Refains Place at Head of State League “Kisky” Feldman, Bristol Endee forward, retained his position at the top of the scoring list in the Con- necticut State Basketball Jeague dur- ing past week following his work in the game against New Britain last Wednesday night.
