BRISTOL ENDEES DEFEAT ~ LOCALS IN TOUGH BATTLE New Britain Outplays Opponents During Entire Game —Poor Officiating of Johnny Manion Scored— Crack Foul Shooting Gives Bell Towners Winning t Edge—Leary Forced to Leave Game With Injury | to Ankle — Johnson High Scorer for Victorious Quintet. In one of the roughest and poor- est played games of the present state league season, the Bristol Endee basketball team managed to nose out the New Britain quintet at the Bristol high school last evening by a two point margin, 26 to 24. The game was marred by the constant rough play of the Endec team and the poor officiating of Johnny Manlen. The locals outplayed their op- ponents throughout the entire bat- tle, outpassing and outjumping them without any trouble. The small floor gave the Endee team a great advantage and Sloman and Ruben- steln were continually roughed up as they attempted to shoot from short range. New Britain outscored Bristol from the floor, ten fleld goals to eight, but the foul shooting of the Endees was spectacular, and gave the Bell town team the game. Bristol sank 40 tries out of 16 while New Britain was able to cage but four tries out of 12. Bristol took an early lcad on Johnson's foul shots but Sloman's baskets kept the locals in the run- ring. The score at half time was 15 to 11 in favor of Bristol. In the second half Sheehan ran wild and caged three sensational baskets from the side court that put New Britain into the lead for the first time in the game, Bristol took the reins in the final six minutes and by their typi- cal stalling tactics managed to stave -off the locals long cnough to win the game. Tom Leary continued his great guarding and allowed his man only one basket. He held the great Feld- man without a basket in the first half and Johnson, the latest addition to the Bristol team, managed to score a basket off the former Ford- ham flash when he and Manning got loose under the baskct and Leary left Johnson to guard Manning. Shechan continued to back up Leary in fine style and held Feldman and DRAFT PROBLEM ~ STILL UNSETTLED | American League Chiefs Unable to End Controversy Chicago, Feb. & (P—The minor- major league draft problem con- tinued its persistent heckle of |organized baseball today. | Despite a meeting of the Ameri- can league chiefs vesterday, the problem which has been bandied about since the French Lick con- ference in January, 1927, was re- |ferred back to the league’s advisory |board for settlement. | At the French Lick meeting ma- ‘jor and minor leagues representa- tives adopted several recommenda- \tions, including such as the raising |of the draft price for all classes of minor leaguers and exempting cer- itain players from selection. They !\ere to be placed formally before the minor league meeting at Dallas, Texas, last December but were not | brought up. Approval of the Ameri- can league owners was expected terday, but the entire matter was again referred to the advisory board. The American league own- ers, however, intimated they favor /most of the rccommendations. Hereafter the most valuable play- ler in the American circuit wil re- ceive $1,000 cash with his engrossed diploma. This was voted by the league owners yesterday in an ef- {fort to provide a stimulus among | players for the prize. It was stressed |that the prize will be open to the most valuable players on any team, {whether it wins the championship or ends in the cellar.

In the two major leagues in 1926, just six pitchers were able to reach the 20 or better figure in games won. Four of these pitchers worked | in the National, two in the Ameri- | can. No National league pitcher was able to win more than 20 games. Kremer, Rhem, Donohue and Mendows just reached that mark. The two American league pitchers | to shine were Uhle of Cleveland with 27 battles to his credit, and Pennock, who reglstered 23 v.rl-‘ umphs. ! Last year the number of twirlers | to reach the coveted figure in the majors was increased by one over| the preceding season. Once again | the National offered four such stars | while the American had three. t A etriking coincidence about the hurling records of these two years is the fact that not one of the six to 80 30 or better games in 1926 was | able to repeat last season. Pennock | and Meadows fell just one short of | the charmed number, while Kremer, | out for a couple of months with & bad knee, was two games away. In the National league averages for 1927, find Root of Chicago | with the most victories, 26; likewise, he lost the moat games of the four outstanding pitchers in the senior organization as 15 defeats were charged to him.

Mr. Walsh figures that Bristol is a good location for a team in the roller hockey league due to the num- ber of fans who regularly visit New Britain to watch the games here.
