In the early per- jods the visitors kept within threat- ening distance and were behind at only 22-16 when the game reached its middle point, but in the second half New Britain threw up an im- pregnable defense which held Mid- dletown without a score from afield, and the one point made utes came just as the about to close. “Hern Schma other scoring ra 17 points to eq of the visiting n, while Goffa and Kerelejza garnered cight points apiece in the scoring spree.

Compagnone excelled defensivel taking the dangerous Wilcox in th second half and holding him abso- lutely without a point. ~ The elub attack looked the strongest it has at any time this season, while the de- fense was also of premier calibre. Goffa started the scoring, and in the first half each New Britain play- er made exactly one basket. Dow- ling of Middletown got two, however and Wilcox brought the score t¢ 10-7 and then to 10-8 as the second quarter started. Grusha and Kerele- jza lifted the club in front again but once more Wilcox came back and arew his team up to 13-11. This time also it was Grusha who started the home team, and then Schmarr and Goffa ran the total to 20-11. Wilcox made a free toss good and slipped away for two haskets, but Schmarr put in a pair of awarded tosses as the period ended. In the second half Compagnone switeched over and took Wilcox, who had made 12 points up to intermis- sion. ‘Red” succeeded in stopping the visiting star dead, and with their one big gun spiked the Wolverin were about as badly outplayed as any team ever has bheen. Led by Schmarr, the club tore the visiting defense apart for 22 while holding Middletown to one point, made by Cubeta with a min- ute to play.

He gained this posi- [tion by a surprising two-round | knockout victory over Joey Sangor of Milwaukee last night. | 1gor, hitherto regarded as the outstanding contender for the 130 | pound title ,was smashed to defeat |in a spectacular battle that stunned | in _the Coli- | |the 10,000 spectators | scum. The freckled faced Milwaukee boy had accepted the match merely a warming up for a champlonship encounter with Tod Morgan of Se- | |attle, the titleholder, in Milwaukee on New Year's day. Instead of push-over, Sangor met a two-fisted fighter who traded punch for punch. Santiago finished off Sangor as though he were just an ordinary ham and egger, instead of a conten- der for a championship .After & bristling first round in which they traded punches like two longshore- | men, Sangor came out confidently for the second. Within the twinkling of an eye he was groggy and reeling from a sharp | right cross to the chin. Santiago nailed him flush on the point of the !jaw with a short right that knocked him silly. Sangor attempfed to grab his opponent, but the Cuban wres- tled him off and cracked him with another right. Sangor dropped to the floor for the count of nine. As hie struggled to his feet his face was ashen white and his knees were ! sagging. Santiago, boxing calmly and with deliberation, let fly with anoth- cr right that knocked Sangor half y across the ring where he sprawled flat on his face. He tried to get up through instinct alone. He managed to get himself up to one knee, then slumped back to the floor and fell victim to the fatal 10 count. Santiago, never before ehgaging in a windup of major importance, has been boxing with indifferent suc- cess since he took up the sport three years ago. He only recently returned from Cuba after an enforced layoft of nine months due to iliness. Last night's fight was his third since his return. He is a sharp hitter | with cither right or left hand. He took his fighting name from his home town, Santiago De Cuba. Tommy loughran, Philadelphia, world's light heavyweight cham- pion, won over “Big Boy" Peterson of Minneapolis.

NEA Service Sports Writer | | The opportunity for one of two {teams being acclaimed as national football champions without the nui- | sance of several pretenders to the throne gtanding about presents itself this year in the annual Tournament of Roses game on New Year's Day. The game, unlike some of the others in recent years, does carry a \ampionship tinge with Georgia, Tech and University of California as | contenders and the outcome should make either Georgia Tech or Southern California the national champions. And that is said with Aue knowledge that any loyal Cali- fornian will argue the matter out for the Golden Bears. | Georgia Tech. unbeaten and un- | | is regarded as the best team of the ‘east at this time. It might be said that it is a southern team but in this Pasadena game it is regarded 12 an easterner and will go down in defeat or up in victory as an castarn team. California, however, doesn’t rank as Pacific Coast champion. Southern | California was awarded the title and on the face of things, with a victory over Stanford that tied California, at the best. can rank but a half-share of the title and to give them that necessitates loss of memory on two | tie games. One tie scems better than | two ties. All of that means Georgia Tech, by winning, will get the title. Cali- fornia, should it win, will make the | title secure for Southern California. | Because of this champlonship ele- | ment, the game this year is cansing | more whoopes out on the Pacific |slopes than any Tournament of Roses game has in years. Rose Bowl officials look for a sell-out and why |lege opponents scored against this | !the best offense in the world, CALIFORNIA TEAM TO PLAY GEORGIA TECH BANCROFT SCHWARZ SCHMIDT shouldn't they sell 70,000 tickets| when a championship battle is the menu offered Other than this championship angle, the fact that Callfornia is back in the money out thers and | going along with the best in a foot- ball way is causing great interest in the game. The Bears haven't been in on the Pasadena game since 1922 when they held Washington and | Jefferson to a storeless tie. They have one other game to thelr credit at Pasadena, played the year before | against Ohio State, They won 28-0. | The fact that California is in the money this year is a big boost for Nibs Price, their young coach, who was about to be hooted out of his | job before the season opened. His | teams weren't much in 1926 and but his team this year was rated just about the best defensive | outfit of that sectidn and this fact stopped a lot of the talk around Berkeley that the Bears needed a | coach.

Stan- ford was tied but scored 13 points ‘The Olympic club, & team composed | of cx-college stars, trimmed them | 12-0, but victory In that game was not all-important to the college boys. Victorles of the year were made at | the expense of Santa Clara, St Mary's Washington State and Ne- vada. All were shut out and the Southern California team also was shut out in a scoreless game. This fact makes it seem as if | Georgia Tech is in for a tougher afternoon on New Year's Day than it has had all season. The southern- | ers are noted for their defensive tactics also, and it looks like it is going to be a case of dog eat dog when these two teams meet, One thing is certain, the southern- | ers will find the California flanks | guarded by the best pair of ends | they have played against this season. | Captain Irvine Philips, choice of many experts for an All-America berth, is on the wing and a sopho- | more named Russ Avery, who hap- pens to be an old Olympic club per- former, plays the other. They are good, as a pair and as individuals, and plenty hard to get around or through. The California cleven doesn’t boast but they are pretty touch on defense and they may have a surprise of- fense, like they showed against Pennsylvania in a post-season game last year, to startle the southern team. They have some nice running backs in Lom, Eisan and Schmidt, and a great punter in Lom. Tncidentally. a favorite attack of price is the kicking game. That is, kicking at every opportunity, hopivg | for a break. This is what the late Andy Smith used to do, and the Tricemen have followed the system very effectively this vear.
