T e - & ¢ i COURT SEASON LOCALS LOSE TO CELTICS New York Team Wins Out in Furiously Waged Battle— New Britain Outscores Rivals From the Field—Ex- pertness of Visitors From Foul Line Gives Them the Edge—Rubenstein Continues Sensational Play —Contest Proves to Be Foul shooting again accounted for a loss for the New Britain basked ball team Saturday night when the | Celtics of New: York, chanipions of the world of basketball, battled their way in a furious encounter to a 42 to victory over the Hardware City | quintet. The uncanny ability of the | visitors to drop the ball through the hoop from the frce throw line gave ! them more than enough points to| offset the work of the home team in | outscoring the opposition 12 to 11 sield baskets from the floor. The contest, the last of the sf-ason! for the New Britain team, was also | cne of the blue-banner attractions of the entire year. With a rush, the | Celtics started a whirlwind passing | zame at the very start but New Brit- | an threw up a solid defense that | overcame the Celtic speed and the | home club stood tied with the cham- | pions with less than six minutes to | 30 to finish the game, Tough luck dogged the home club | all through the first half when in- numerable shots were well placed for the rim but the ball failed to go through the hoop. Had at east half | of these been score for points, New | Britain would have had a comfort- able lead in the summary at the end of the first half. Both teams played roughly at| times, but this only made the spec- | tacle more interesting and exciting. | The New York team displayed all its | cleverness and speed in the attack while the New Britain crew ram"d‘ strongly at every turn and even went | into the lead about half way through | the second half. Rubenstein continued his sensa- tional play Saturday night, Having proved conclusively against the Chi- cago Bruins that he could play with the best in the country, I: duplicat- ed the performance Saiurday night ! and went on a scoring rampage that the Celtics found difficult to stop. Jimmy Zakzewski scored as many points as Rubenstein in the final analysis but he had a tougher job in playing the elongated Lopchick in center. It was Lopchick's sensational work from the foul line in scoring 11 free shots out of 14 tries, that en- abled the Celtics to come through with a win. Banks and Barry, cov- cred by Sheehan and Leary, respec- Juvely, failed to register a single point In the first half and Barry got only one long pop in the second while Banks scored three ficld goals. In its floor work, the New Britain | team equalled and, in the minds of ifany, outplayed the famous combin- ation from the metropolis. Ruben- sfein and Sloman worked nicely to- g¢ther at forward, Zakzewski play ia whale of a game at center while Sheehan and Leary were like leeches agter their men. Aecount of Game TLike whirling dervishes, the Celtics | opened up the first half and soon ran up & score of five points. Zakzew breke in to score for N Britain after three minutes of play but the Celtics kept up their speedy exhi- bition. With the count 11 to 2, Slo- man broke the ice again for New Britain and the locals quickly crept up to 10 points while the Celtics were adding one. Then a slight spurt by the visitors gave them 14 but New Britain came right back and tied the count at the 17:10 mark. A basket and two fouls by Lopchick gave the Celtics a lead of 18 to 14 at half time. Second Half Rubenstein got a basket 10 seconds after play was resumed in the second half. Lopchick again came through from the free throw line. Sloman made it 19 to 18 but Dehnert added a point for New York. Again Slo- man popped a long shot through the hoop tying the count at the 4:20 mark. Here the Celtics spurted again and scered scven points in rapid order zlving them that much of a lead. | Rubenstein came through with two pretty.ficld goals and Leary and Slo- man-added points on free tries leav- ing New Dritain again one point he- hind. Banks got a long shot for New York but quick baskets hy Ruben- stein and Zakzewski put New Britain | inte the lead Ly one point at the| 12:15 minute mark. Nip and tuck went the score with neither team having more than a ofie-point leud and New Britain stay- ing ahead. At the 14:15 minute mark, the Celtics tied the count on a PHANTOMS WIN'IN SBHEHHES. CLOSES AS One of Sensations of Year: OVERTINE SCRAP Hartlord Pirates Finish Game With Three Men on Floor Displaying little of the form that brought it through the recent tournament at the Boys' club to win the senior amateur championship of the city, the Phantoms basketball team managed to nose out a 46 to 40 win over the Pirates of Hartford at the Stanley Arena in the preliminary game Saturday night, Despite the fact that the Pirates, through ban- | ishment of their players from the ranks because of personal fouls, were forced to end up with only three men on the floor, the victory was a narrow escape for the wearers of the purple toga in this city.

Seven clubs sit up and evince interest at the mere men- tion of the championship.

Today the fighting blue grass boys were back home, toasted and feted by the happy fans. In addition, an unofticial title went to the team. That was for clean playing. In all five games played during the week, not one personal foul was called on the Kentuckians, Never before has a team done this in ten years of tour- nament play. It was this factor that beat the Illinois state champions. Canton looped five goals to Ashland's four and if the rest had been even would have won. But Canton committed seven fouls and the Kentucky sharp- shooters converted each of them in. to extra points and victory. The tournament was a great tri- umph for Kentucky. For not only did Ashland make the best showing, but its second team, from the tiny settlement of Carr Creek, received the most publicity and finally got on learned basketball with a vacant lot ed the quarter finals with virtually every spectator cheerin for them.

Chicago, April § () — The *ex- 'pvrlfl” have had their say, the hot stove league season is over and the seven underdogs of the American league, fortified with new help, are ready to show them they are all wrong. For almost to a man, thesc critics of the national pastime have agreed that not a club exists in the junior [circuit big or powerful enough to stop Miller Huggins and his ram- pant Yankees from again making a one ring circus out of the 29th an- gxluul season which opens officially on | Wednesday. { This scason, more than ever, it will be the Yankees against the ficld. It will be the same New York team, too, as no important changes have !been made in its lineup since last sceason when it ran away with the bunting by a margin of 19 games. Even Urban Shocker, who decided to quit the game last fall, expects to be back on the mound. While the Yankees have not demonstrated their punch in the training exhibition games, they are confident they will act differently when they cross bats with the Philadelphia Athletics on Wednesda Determined to end the Yankee su- premacy, the rest of the clubs havc been busy recruiting during the p: s1x monthe. Many veterans will play side by side for the first time in their long careers, the usual crop of rook- iies will make their first appearances in big time and new captains and one new manager will be at the helms. In Philadelphia, the fans are op- timistic, Connie Mack has added 1wo veterans, Tris Speaker and Bing | Miller, 10 his outfield and along with Ty Cobb believe he has an outfield [ that can’t be rivalled in the league.
