ESpeaking | tof Sports The Hakoah basketball quintet, featuring Nat Holman and Davey Banks in its lineup, defeated the Springfield Bees in Springfield last night by the score of 40 to 28. The game was played before a crowd of only 300 fans. Harold W. Heinz, writing an ag- count of the game in the Springfield Union, thinks very little of the New at stake ended in excitement early | York aggregation. He says that they were far from impressive and lacked polish as a team. He com- plained that Holman failed to show the dynamic energy that has made him one of the most famous of court performers. Part of the blame he lays to the home club because of its inability to press the visitors. This is true in a great many cases. The situ- ation should be very different when the Hakoahs play in this city. The election of Joe Potts as cap- tain of the New Britain High school football team, does not break prece- dent. Potts, a freshman, was select- | ed as next year's leader yesterday. Others times in the history of the achool, sophomores and, at least once, a freshman, have been select- ed to captain the following year's eleven. It was the worth while qualities possessed by the young man that caused his teammates to LAYTON RETAINS BILLIARD TITLE Wins Final Maich in Three Cushion PliFBn Hoppe Chicago, Dec. 20 (PM—The first double-joined cue championship tournament at which the pocket billiards and three cushion billiards championships of the world were }today.

Frank Taberski, Schenectady, | protested to the Natlonal Billlards association following his interrupted | match with Ralph Greenleaf, the |champion, charging that Greenleaf | violated the rules by leaving the room twice during the playing of their match While Layton and Hoppe were ettling the three cushion title, the | committee was wrangling over the | Taberski dispute. | ‘The final decision of the commit- |tee was that Taberski and Green- leaf should meet again tomorrow |night.

He turn- 'ed in a 127 for the 36-hole qualify- ing round yesterday. The official list will not be com- piled until all have shot their qual- ifying round. John O’Connor, 8acamoor, N.

The chances of Johnny Weil of Texas, who scored 142 and Earl | Diehl, Erie, Pa., were still darker. Horton Smith, Joplin, Mo, shot only 9 holes yesterday for a 33, tying with Danny Williams, New York, Roland Hancock of North Carolina and John Black, Oakland, Cal.

Berlenbach fought himself out in the lighter divislon, when still a young man, while De- laney either lacked the stamina and durability necessary to mix with the good big men or found his sharp- shooting ineffective against them. Loughran and Stribling would be bigger stumbling blocks for Jack Dempsey than other contenders in sight, in the event the Manassa mauler tries another Dempsey has beaten Sharkey. He would prefer the rough and ready going among such big fellows as as elusive and shifty as Tunney, with jall the speed needed to go at least 10 rounds at a fast clip, something that Dempsey in the past few years has not demonstrated he can do.

Natur- ally he has the best radio set to be obtained in Brazil. The year around President Wash- ington Luis arises from 5 to 5:30 and is at his desk in the Guanabara palace at 6 o'clock. The morning papers are ready for him as also are important documents of the past twenty-four hours. The president, according to his intimates, makes his most important decisions in the first two hours of the day—before he bregkfasts at 8 o'clock. After a | light breakfast he goes back to his desk and for the next two hours de- | votes himself to study, history, and. |in recent months, developement of |social democracy in Germany. com- Imunism in Russla, and fascism in |Italy, in all of which he Is intensely | interested.

Receives Congressmen Audience hours for the president are from 4 to 6:30 daily during which time he receives members of congress, important persons Brazil and such forcigners as ob- |tain the privilege of an audience through their respective ambassa- dors. The official day of the presi- {dent ends at §:30 when he leaves | Cattete for his home to devote the {evening to his family. He is fond of music and when there is no grand opera available in Rio the {president brings music to Guana- {bara palace through the air from |the United States and Europe. | Taller than the usual Brazilian, | in Washington Luis has a commanding | himself | personality. He is a stickler for punciuality and demands it of his |subordinates while he never allows to be late for anything. Although he has lived most of his fifty-eight years in Sao Paulo, the | president is not a confirmed coffee | drinker as most Brazilians. During the six hours he is at Cattete each | day he drinks only a cup of tea with 'a few biscuits. In the two years of his administra- tion the president has been adamant in refusing amnesty to the last rev- |olutionists whether serving sentences in Brazil or living in exile. How strongly he feels on this subject is shown by the incident of the Naval club here which voted to reinstate |as members the officers of the Sao Paulo who are in exile. | Crew Mutinies On November 4. 1824, the crew of the dreadnaught Sao Paulo mutinied ,and proceeded to Montevideo. The {Uruguayan authorities seized the | ship and restored it to the jurisdic- |tion of the regular Brazilian naval authorities.
