After losing to the Waterbury Shamrocks in Waterbury Saturday night, the New Britain roller hockey team came back with a vengeance to | swamp the Brass city entry in the| game played yesterday afternoon at | the Stanley Arena in this city. The final score was New Britain 10, Wa- terbury 5. The Hardware City combination with “Kid” Williams and “Cowboy” Thompson dividing evenly the scor- ing honors, showed complete su- periority over the quintet led by #Red” Donnelly and from the first} period on, held a lead that increased as the game progressed. Six in and out goals for New Britain would | have given the home team a bigger lead had they remained within the nets. The game was fast from begin-| ning to end and again the redoubt- | able “Stonewall Jackson” of the New Britain team, “Barney” Doher- ty, played the role of guardian angel for the home team. He continually broke up the pass work of the Brass City players and, aided by the spec- tacular playing of Pete Gazzinga, his capable understudy, he electri- | fled the fans again with his spec-| tacular playing. Pete Welch in the goml, gave as good an exhibition of goal tending as has been seen on the local floor this vear' and he stopped almost everything that the visiting rush combination of Davies and Mulligan could rip at him. Thompson opened the scoring for New Britain with two goals, both of | them made in the same time of two minutes and 26 seconds. Mulligan came through for Waterbury with a sudden dash and scored six seconds later. The teams then battled all; over the rink for five minutes When Willlams finally sank one for New Britain. Davies followed him with a goal after a neat plece of pass work but before the period was over, Williams had slipped another by Bill Blount giving New Britain a lead of 4 to 2 at the opening of the second frame. Two rapid goals, one by Williams in 19 seconds and the other by Thompson in 21 scconds increased New Britain's lead to 6 to 2 but Waterbury started a whirlwind at- tack that kept the local defense on its toes. For the next 10 minutes, the teams waged an intensive battle until the play was finally broken up when “Kid” Williams spliced a light- ning like drive into the side of the cage. “Cowboy” Thompson got still another before the period ended, leaving the score at 8 to 2 in favor | of New Britain at the close of the period. Williams got still another to open the third and final frame but Wa- terbury started a threc-man_ offen- sive that backed the New Britain team up against its own cage. Cap- tain Donnelly of the Waterbury team, swung into the oftensive and with pretty team play between him and the two rushers, he caged two successive goals. Thompson, how- ever, retrieved one for New Britain, ‘Them Davies caged one for Water- bury, leaving the final count 10 to 5 in favor of New Britain, This put the Hardware City five back in second place again over the fhamrocks who had usurped the place Saturday night.

Mark's ..... 1 .250 Stan. Memerial 0 4 .000 The First Lutherans were left in lone possession of first place in the Inter-Church basketball league Sat- urday night when the 8t. Matthew's German Lutherans, previously tied with them, were humbled in a whirl- wind game at the Y. M. C. A, and fell before an eleventh hour on- alaught of the South Congregational team. With Arnold Reckert, their big gun, absolutely spiked, the St. Matts still continued to put up a stiff battle, but a rally which in- creased in flerceness as the end ap- proached was too much for them and the South church won by 27-20. The 8wedes, meanwhile, were tak- ing the measure of ‘e Everyman's Bible class in a slow game, 22-19. Although they were behind nearly all the way, the winners had no cause for worry, as the Bible claas was using two ineligibles and the game was under protest. In the third game the Bt, Mark's Episcopal team scored its first tory, shattering the Stanley Memo- rial outfit to win a stunning 35-14 victory in the biggest upset of the night. The crowd was the best of the season and filed the * gym almosts to capacity, South Church Winss The Bouth church made a great comeback in the closing minutes an was able to pin the season's first de- feat upon its traditional rivals, the St. Matts, in the hottest and @Jst exciting contest of the three played. Fighing to win when a loss would mean virtual elimination from the leagus race, the Congregationalists won & hammer-and-tongs see-saw encounter and climbed back into the fight, at the same time knocking their foes out of the lead. Bell opened the scoring by bat. ting in a follow-up shot and Morey lifted his steam into & ¥-4 lead, but Klopp, Billy Preisser and “Goody” Preisscr staged a forceful three-man attack which carried the Bt. Matts out in front and gave them the long end of an 11-7 count at half-time, The South church rallied deter- minedly in the second half, which was largely a duel between Morey and Billy Preisser, who were oppos- ed to each other. Morey started the half with two pretty shots which tied the score, but Goody Preisser came up to put his team ahead again and Billy almost broke the winners' hecrts with a long toss which made the score 15-11, 8t. Matts. Bell put in a fancy shot, but Klopp made kood a free t . 8o did Rockwell, only to have Billy Preisser loop an- other jong shot through the hoop und make it 18-14. Morey ducked under for another score and Bell brought the crowd up howling with a perfectly arched shot from near the side lines past the middle of the tloor, May, after three unsuccessful tosses, finally put in a foul and the South church moved ahead to 19-18. However, Billy Preisser was not | through yet and he pounded still an- other distance shot into the basket to send his team ahead again. The teams then battled furiously until there were about two minutes left, when Morey put in a weird one- handed shot from the wild scrim- mage near the foul line. The South church was ahead, but it was still anybody's game and play was re- sumed furiously. Then, with 30 sec- onds left, Parker put the game on ice with his only score of the night and the 8t. Matts took time out. They played a desperate game in the last seconds, but the winners took the ball away and scored twice more on tosses by Bell and Rockwell, The work of Morey and Bell fea- tured the offensive play of the South church, the two guards accounting for 21 points between them and meking them against & savagely de- termined defense. May and Parker liept the 8t. Matt forwards out of the picture, the latter holding Reckert, the league's leading scorcr, without |a point. And the Bouth church guards did this without committing a rersonal foul. For the 8t. Matts the work of Billy Preieser was outstand- ing. He made five beautiful baskets from the wide open spaces in mid- floor and kept his team always in the running by his one-man offen- sive. The summary: South Congregational Fl.

With One Minute to Go.Landino Drops In Goal, | | Atletes Beat Nerden, Win- Cutting Lead to Win—Kraszewski Makes Basket Giving New Britain the Edge—Spectacular Finish Makes Basketball History for Schools. With 20 seconds to go and Hart- ford High basketball team leading New Britain by three points, one of the wildest finishes on record was made in the annual game between the t~o athletic rivals. Landino slipped through a stone wall defense to ecore & basket and cut the Capi- tal City lead to one point. The jump at center followed, Schmarr got the tap and Krassewski got the ball. With the fans begging for a shot, the local boy came through and sank the ball, giving New Britain a one point lead, For the remaining seconds, New Britain held the ball and the final whictle found the Hardware City Guintet in possession and winaer by 31 to 30, & one point margin. The gamehwas a sensation in court circles for this season. It was played Sat- urday afternoon at the Hopkins street gym in Hartford, The winning basket was acored with seven seconds to go. With five minutes to play, New Britain led by a nine point mar- gin but a sudden rally by Hartford put it in the lead with three min- utes to go. Alex Zaleski was given a foul shot which it successful would have tied the score within 30 seconds of the cnd, but he missed. With 20 seconds to go Landino made a sensational overhead shot from beyond the foul line, The score was then 30 to 29 in favor of Hartford. Then Kr: zewskl's shot which came from the middle of that unusually large floor of the Hopkins street gymnasium, settled the game. The lead interchanged six times during the game and the score was tied three times. Zalesk: and Schmarr put the New Britain team in an early lead, 3 to 2. Parlee and Schofield scored in succession and when the game was four minutes old Hartford had a b to 3 lead. Schofield and Wise in- creased Hartford'’s total to 10 while Zaleski and Schmarr were scoring four points for New Britain. At the cnd of the first quarter, Hartford led, 10 to 7. Half time score was 12 to 10, Hartford. Two minutes after the second quarter began Landino made a fleld goal which followed points scored by Kraszewskl and Schmarr and the scored was tied at 12-all. Then Hartford went on a rampage and led, 18 to ., but New Britain came back and tied the score at 18-all when the third quarter was six min- utes old. The Red and Gold team then went into 2 nine-point 27 to 18 lead with five minutes to go. Gunther, dart- ford High center, made it 20 to 27, Wilkins who had just gone into the game made it 22 to 27, Gunther again came though for a field goal and it was 24 to 27, S8chofleld made it 28 to 27. Landino fouled Wise as he was in the act of shooting but Wias couldn’t make either of his chances good and New Britain High still clung to its slim lead. Schofield was fouled by Sowka as he was in the act of shooting and with a coolness that was admirable he sank both shots and Hartford went into a one point lead. Zaleski was then given the foul shot which he missed. Wise slipped through the New Britain defense and scored a field goal and Hartford High rooters be- gan to rejoice because they felt the game was on ice. Wise was fouled by Kraszewski while he was shoot- ing. He made the basket but missed the free tries. Then the two New Britain baskets were scored and the game was over. Immediately the entire New Britain squad and rooters crowded about Kraszewski and threw their arms about him in real hero fashion. It was a fitting finish to the athletic careers of Louls Landino and Henry Kraszewsk! that they should be the heroes in the last seconds of a vie- tory over thelr school's arch-rivals from Hartford. “Hermy” 8chmarr and - Henry Kraszewskl were the best players on the New Britaln team. Whenever the Red and Gold team was in a dangerous fix and possession of the ball was the most important asset Kraszewski came through and got the ball for his team. The summary: New Britain High Fld.
