A. to 12 boys who gar- nered cnough points §n the 1,000- point contest conducted for the past 16 week® The successful competi- Manager Sam Balley of the New Haven Atlas basketball team has finally consented to play New Brit. &in, but, according to his pleas, twd sames have been arranged. The first wili be played in this city next Saturday night and the sccond is scheduled probably for the following Wednesday night in New Haven. Manager Lanpher was ansious to rlay the New Haven team and he is confident that New Britain can take both games. Therefore, when Bailey lLield out for two games, he assented when he found that nothing could be done about the matter. If the teams split, the situation will be the same then as it is now and it is up to New Britain to win the double header, grams for their ability as all-around athletes. To win these awards the bhoys were requircd to show proficiency in the following events: aquatics, 3 events; track and fleld, 3 events; heavy gymnaatics, tumbling, bars {and German side-horse; games, vol- ley ball. basketball and indoor hockey; knowledge of rules of the last three mentioned games; tendance, deportment and hygiene. Two hundred and fifty boys par- ticipated in these tests which were divided into four divisions accord- ing to age and weight. Manager Bailey's attitude this time was just the opposite from what it has been. Before, the New Haven man has assumed a- dictatorial atti- tude towards Lanpher, but in Sat- urday’s conversation over the trlo- phone, he was the suppliant. New Britain basketball fans saw a real basketball battle at the Stan- ley Arcna last Saturday night and they are eonvinced that New Britain, with the opportunities for playing and practice that American league tcams have, would be among the top notchers in the circuit, should the local team be entered. sterling ailver third mono- awards, first place, medals; second and grams: 3 Junjor “A" class 10 to 12 vears, first, Leonard Carlson, 394 points; ugene Covle, %8G points; rnest Carlson, $70 points. ‘B" class 13 fo 15 'first place, I'red Ritter, 962 |second, Henry Schmidt, 942 third Sidney Eisenberf, 240 3 Employed *“B" class (younger) first, Albert Krakauske, 954 points; second, Bruno Gutowski, §39 points; third, Stanley DBatagowski, 8S1 | points.
