Speaking ¢ fof Sports An interesting jtem published in the N¢w York papers yesterday showed that tSapleten defeated the ewark Pros by the score of §1 to O last Bunday. This is another argu- WITH THE BOWLERS ROGERS ALLEYS STANLEY McConn Politis Fazzina Gucek . Molyneux ment in faver of the shewing of the | A New Britain team against Stapleton & week ugo last Bunday. Many are te be disappointed be- cause the third game of the series between the Hartford Giants and the New Britain Nutmegs must be played in Hartford. They will claim that Hartford always gets the third game. However, with Memorial Field being used by the Blues and Pawnees, theére is no other alterna- tive than to bave the Nutmegs go to Hartford. Manager Henry Zehrer, although nat criticizing the work of the offi- cials in the game last S8unday, stated today that he would not agree to having Leslie Mpnn referee this coming Sunday. He wants to have Jacques, the man who formerly ref- ereed Hartford-New Britain games, in that position this coming week- end. Without much doubt, the major- ity of the fans in this city will ugree with him on not wanting Mann as referee. There was plenty of criti- eism of his work in the last two games, There is a possibility that “Poss” Miller might play with New Britain against Hartford next Sunday. This is only a possibility and not a prob- ability, Zehrer is going to get some new men in order to bolster up his team. Just who ‘they are will remain in doubt fer a few days more until he gets in touch with them definitely. Free shines and a cleaned hat are being offered the members of the New Britain High school football team if they win from Hartford Sunday. Raymond Cianflone is of- fering the service. The final meeting of the managers of the teams in the American Roller Hockey league will be held tonight in Hartford. The New Rritain team will be entirely revamped, accord- ing to Manager Frank McDouough. He made a trip to New Bedford the other day and foynd that Bou cher had splintered a little bone hié ankle. The member is in a plas ter cast and he will be laid up fori about four weeks. Manager McDonough will attempt to get a man to fill his place at a meeting of the league moguls to- night. The game will probably be played on Thursday night and Sunday af- ternoons during the scason in this city. BOSTON COLLEGE CREW BEST OFFENSIVE TEAM Late Season Statistics England Eleien as Leading All Others Boston, Nov. 20 (UP)—Late sca- son statistics picture the unbeaten, * untied Boston college eleven as the greatest offensive football machine in New England. With twe more games to play, one of which is likely to matesially aug- ment its total score, B. C. heads the list of high scorers in this section of the country. The greatest defensive team in New England would seem to be Connectitut Aggies, whose goal line has yet to be crossed this season. Connecticut has pluyed seven games without permitting its opponents to score a single point. Indications are, however, Connecticut’'s uncrosscd goal line will be crosscd at least oence, and probably several timer, next Satur- day when it lines"up against Boston college. The 10 leading New England are: Boston College, 193; Williams, 185; Dartmouth, 176; Amherst, 14 Holy Cross, 1 Lowell 126; Brown, 11 Harvard, Tufts, 106; Yale, 106. RUBY GOLDSTEIN STAGES IMPRESSIVE COMEBACK East Side Lightweight Ring to Knock Out Al Bryant of New York. New York, Nov. 20 (UP)—Ruby Goldstein, ecast side lightweight, who has been out of several months, staged an impres- sive comeback here last night when he knocked out Al Bryant, of New- ark, N. €., in the fourth round of & ten round feature bout. Bryant went down for the limit count in the first and again in the second round, as Goldstein swarmed all over him with vicious hooks. A hard right to the face in the fourth put Bryant down for a nine count and when he wabbled to his feet and stood in a daze, the referee waved him to his corner. Goldstein wcighed 139 and Bry- ant 137 1-2. Phil Tobias, Coney Island fly- weight, won a ten round decision over Midget Wolgast, of Philadel- phia, in the semi-final bout. that asint-scorers 108; Returns to Bestén, Nov. 20 (UP)—Playing their first home game of the season the Boston Bruins will meet Les Canadiens of Montreal before an ex- pected crowd of 14,000 at the Bos- ten Garden tonight. Onlywo casualties handicap the Boston téam. and Manager Art Ress feels that his reserve strength ean make up for the temporary loss of Dutch Gaifter and Eddie Rodden. sShow New | Textile, | the ring for |, Grobatein Haigis Walters Adams, Budnick Grail Sulak Quenk W.

A basket by Zajac, visits ing center, settled the issue at al- most the very end of the game. Cap- tain “Red” Compagnone was drib- bling up the floor in a desperate at- tempt to wipe out a 34-33 lead, but he tripped and lost possession of the tall. which bounded to Zajac and relayed into the basket for the Iumning points. A foul by Winters in the last 30 scconds only closed {the gap a bit. New Britain got away first on a basket by Joe Goifa only 75 seconds after play began, but the first qu: ter was evenly fought and closed with the locals leading by only 9-8. {Goffa led a wild attack in the sec- ond period and the score mounted to 20-8, but Meriden fought back to 20-14 before the half ended. Meriden kept coming in the third | period and soon a long shot by Clark {ticd things at 22-22. KFrom this point the game was a nip-and-tuck affair, the teams altcrnating in the lead and being tied at 29-29 as the quarter ended. The visitors took a four-point lead in the last session, but Schmarr popped in a basket and Compagnone again deadlocked the count with a long shot. Stevens, a substitute guard, put Meriden ahead for the last time, and then came Za- jac's hope-killing basket. The locals showed a fast attack in the first half, cutting for the bas- ket well and showing a variety of plays, but with Goffa and Grusha fruled out on personuls the team wilted and in the last half was play- & on its nerve. With Clark, Zajac and Olschefski dropping in sensa- tional shots the recruit club team lost its stride and never recovered it. Goffa played a whirlwind game until he was forced out, making 11 points. Schmarr, the new forward, bore up well under his first subjec- tion to fire and gave promise of rounding into a star. Captain Com- pagnone played a neat game and, in a contest with 32 personal fouls, went through the four periods with- out one breach of the rules. It was not a discreditable start for the re- built club team. The summary: Meriden 8. T. S. ¥LTU. Humpage, If . 4 Olschefski, 1f Zajac, ¢ .. 5 3 9 Clark, rg . 2 6 sulka, 15 Stevens, Ig .

Reserves Beaten The Boys' club Reserves lost a 12-4 decision to the Meriden Com- munity Five Seconds in a pre- liminary game of close guarding and poorly caried out attacks. Not a field goal was scored in the entire first half, which ended with Meri- den leading by 2-1. Meriden finally found the hoop for three baskets, but New Britain did not locate it trom the floor until Kowalewski dodged under for a goal late in the final period. It was an uninteresting - |affair and there was no star. The 14— 205 457— 851 -375— 169 summary: > | Zebora, It 7 |Stantey, It . Final Minutes—Reserves Beaten when it Franz, rf ...

VOTERS ARE FOR REFERENDUM Yote Shows Majority in Favor of Change Boston, Nov. 20 (P—With only six small precincts missing from a tabulation compiled by the constitu- tional liberty league to vote on the Massachusetts prohibition refer- endum two weeks ago, the result announced today showed “yes" 697,- 735, “no” 414,512, The question of whether the state senator be instructed to ask congress to repeal the eightcenth amend- ment, carried in 34 of the 36 dis- |tricts in which it was proposed. {our districts did not vote on the question. The “wet” margin was 283,223 and the constitutional league point- ed out that the number of persons participating in the *“public policy” vote represented 78 per cent of the total ballots cast in the general elec- tion, or one of the highest percent- ages ever recorded on a referendum lin Massachusetts. | In a recent letter sent to all Mussachusetts congressional and |legislative candidates, the Anti- | Saloon league characterized the ref- crendum as “a mere straw ballot, legally futile and non-binding," and said that the result would be no test of “wet" or “dry” sentiment be- {cause the “organized drys” would {not participate. In answer the con- 'stitutional league asserted that a !higher percentage of voters marked |their ballots in the last referendum |than did in 1924 when the so-called {baby Volstead act was before the | people und was actively supported by the dry organizations. league chal- lenged the good faith of the dry or- !ganizations in sending out, a few days prior (o the élection, a state- ment urging all persons to refrain from_voting on the referendum. “The prohibition leaders may have openly asked their followers [not to participate in the refer- endum,” said an official of the g | lcague, “but from the size of the total vote cast one would be led to "believe that the request was merely to throw us off our guard that while this was going on, secret instructions were being passed out to vote surely and often.” The same official estimated the cost of the state-wide campaign to get out the “wet” vote at slighly than $17,000, ‘British Press Indignant Over Vestris Inquiry London, Nov. 20 P—The conduct lof the inquiry being held in New York into the sinking of the Vestris | drew indignant comment from two of this morning's papers. The Daily News characterized the procedure as “bullying, biased, ig- norant and inconceivably stupid, suggesting a preconcelved resolve to vilify British steamship at all costs and despite all proof to the con- |trary.” The paper added that the methods had aroused deep indigna- |tion in Great Britain. | The Daily Express sald “Bowery methods of treating unfortunate wit- nessses as if they were criminals conspiring to deceive cause the greatest resentment in this country.

HIGH PRESSURE PETE Paluch, If-rg . ‘iusuul number of games are on the i | the Boys' | QUALITY SEEN IN GAMES THIS WEEK Less Than Hall the Usual Num- ber of Contests to Be Played New York, Nov. 20 (®—Quality rather than quantity is the keynote of the eastern college football sched- ule this week. Less than half the list but there are such attractions as the Yale-Harvard, Carnegie Tech- New York University, Princeton- Navy, Nebraska-Army and George- town-Fordham engagements. Most of the other major college elevens are saving their final battle i‘for Thanksgiving Day. On that day |will be held the annual frays be- tween Pennsylvania and Cornell; 3, Bancovich | Syracuse and Columbia; Colgate and Brown; Pittsburgh and Penn State; and Washington and Jefferson and West Virginia. Not even so important a game as that between Carnegie and New iYork Universily can take much in- |terest away from the Yale-Harvard duel at New Haven. Both Yale and Harvard have been tossed about a bit rudely; neither has the sem- blance of a claim to any champion- ship honors, yet 70,000 persons will throng the Yale Bowl next Saturday. For Harvard the season will be a success if the Crimson scores over the Bulldogs. The same is true to a lesser degree at Yale where a vic- tory over Princeton delights the [ilis only a little less than one over Harvard. Whal/t'\?r grip the Yale-Harvard | battle has on the public in general, many an eager eye will be cast in the general direction of Pittsburgh to see whether New York Univer- sity can do what no orft else yet has done—stop the rush of Carnegie's husky Tartans. At Philadelphia, another of the few unbeaten eastern teams, Prince- ton, tackles Navy which has a vic- tory over Pennsylvania and a tie with Michigan to show for its bat- tles with major oppoments. Al- though the Tigers undoubtedly reached their peak for the Yale | game, they will be favorites, and = .- 4 ‘J\U.\g:' 20, 1928 heavy ones, to finish the season un- beaten although tied twice.
