After a poor first half, the local crew smash- ed it way to a 40 to victory in the second half. New DBritain was never better at any time during the present season than it was in the second half Satur- day night and it is a question of whether the team was any poorer at any time than it was in the first half, It was & great spectacle to the fans here to see Ray Holst come through the way he did after Rub- enstein had been taken from lincup. The fans have frequently mentioned that New Britain had poor substitutes but Holst Lelies this statement, The test of a man’s fitness for any line of sports is his ability to arise to an occasion when the occasion is eritical, Losing Rubenstein from the game Saturday night brought a groan from the New Britain fans. This wall of sadness was soon con- verted Into a howl of joy as Holst cume through with three very neee: sary baskets. Wa ean’t feel justified in picking any one man from the team as the outstanding licro of the contest. +Were it not for the fact that every player on the team was in the game for all he was worth, New Britain would not have had a chance. The game a5 it was played w another knock from the “burlap! hoys who hold a sack for every con- test staged nowadays. We don't doubt for a minute but that therc will be some who will instst that the players were all acting their part in the contest but to those fans sa whe watched the game it will remaiy \ nothing but a great basketball spee- | tacle, one of this city. the best ever seon in Arrangements for another game or a series of games will be made now between the two managers to settle the state championship.

It is-seldom that a baskctball team has to play under such distressing conditions as those to which the Boys' club quintet was subjected Saturday night in Boston. crowd of local fans who went along for the game it secmed throughout the contest that the official was not giving New Britain anything remote- Iv Approching an even break in his ' rulings and he was booed aplenty. Yet it was not until after the game that the rooters—and the men hand- ling the team, either—knew the full story. The referee, the players said after the contest, had spoken individual- ly to every member of the team and told him to “ease up” and “lay off” or he would “soon be out of herc™. Hle accused Compagnone of rough playing, although he had not called any fouls on him. 1lle told Gill to quit “stalling”. Benjamin was order- ed not to follow his man around but to “play the ball”. And Goffa was told to “take it easy or you won't last long”. Futhermore, Gill reported overhearing him tell the | Noston playera not to worry, as “those fcllows will soon be out of here”, The trip was a fizzle all around, for the boys were not entertained as they were lest year and as they treated the Boston team on its two appearances here. It is doubtful if the team will play next year and certain that tempt to make a holiday out of any trip to the Hub. Indians Enthused Over Hitting In Training New Orleans, March 26 (—The Cleveland Indians have much to en- thuse over at their New Orleans stronghold, despite Shortstop Joe Eewell's bruised knee. The tribe, apparently having found their batting eyes, continued their assault on the New Orleans’ pitchers yesterday and pounded out # 10 to 3 triumph. Shortstop Sewell, who was carried from the fleld in the eighth with an injured knee and Johnny Hodapp, third baseman, had perfect days at bat. Emil Levaen looked like himself again in three innings of mound duty. Malone Rookie Pitcher Stars for Chicago Cubs Los Angeles, Cal., March 28 (P— Stock in the Chicago Cubs’ pitching staff was up several points today be- | cause of the latest performance of the rookie, Pat Malone.

He was | the first Cub pitcher to go seven in- ning this year. Hack Wilson hit a home run in the fifth inning.
