NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1929, RUBENSTEIN IS RELEASED FROM NEW BRITAIN BASKETBALL TEAM—MURRELL KAYOES WILLIAMS IN 50 SECONDS IN FEATURE AMATEUR BOUT—HOCKEY TEAM TO BATTLE FALL RIVER HERE THURSDAY NIGHT—INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE GAMES—ITEMS REGRET THEY DIDN'T ENTER OTHER SPORTS |YAKUBOWICZ IS LEADING DUSTY LEAGUE SCORERS RUBENSTEIN IS RELEASED DUSTY BILLIARD FROM NEW BRITAIN TEAM| [FAGUE TO OPEN Star Forward of Former Years Unable to Regain Form —Struchbury of Beckman’s All Stars and Chicago Bruins to Join Team Saturday — “Hank” Arburr Added to Squad by Manager Clarence Lanpher—To Secure Player for Bristol Game Wednesday. Rubensteln, for three years one of the star forwards of the New Britain basketball team, was given his outright release by Manager Clarence Lanpher last night, accord- ing to an announcement made to- day. The reason given for the ac- tion is that Rubenstein has been un- able to condition himself and regain the form that made him one of the outstanding players on the local team and in the state. His place on the quintet will be taken by Struchbury of New York, a forward who last year was a mem- ber of Johnny Beckman's All-Stars and of the Chicago Bruins. Although in great demand in the Windy City. Struchbury, for business reasons, was unable to leave New York this season and he has not been a mem- ber of any league team. He has been playing basketball steadily all season long and is in excellent con- dition. Another popular move effected by the local manager has been the signing of Frank (Hank) Arbour, former guard on the Burritt team. Having decided to carry eight .nen on his squad instead of seven, Man- ager Lanpher stated that he could do ne better for a guard than to sign the local boy who has been one of the outstanding players on New Britain amateur and semi-pro teams for several years. ‘With these two additions, the New Britain team should return to its normal strength and become what it was at the beginning of the sea. son, the leading contender for the state basketball title. Struchbury will not be with the New Britaln team Wednesday night in the game with the Bristol Endees in Bristol. The local manager stated today that he will appear here for the first time next Saturday night. Another player, yet to be named, will be in the lineup in the mid- week game. Struchbury is & husky boy and a flash of the same type as McElwain. He stands five feet 113 inches in height and is a crack shot and a nifty floor worker. He was due to appear here last season with Beck- man’s All-8tars but he was laid up at the time of the game with an in- jured Jeg. He is considered to be one of the best men In American League circles. Arbour got his start at the game at the New Britain Boys' club. B cause of his star playing. he was engaged by Frank McConn and Harry Ginsburg to play on the American Legion team a few years ago. He was then recognized as a coming star. He has been among the leading guards in the Industrial Teague. @ has been with two championship utfits in that circuit, P. & F. Cor- bins three years ago and last year with the Screw 8hop. He is captain this year of the Corbin Screw quin- tet which bids fair to again annex the title. He was also a member of the Stanley Rule team when Sloman played forward for that crew. Arbour’s real worth was brought out with the Burritts more than with any other team. His playing led the team to numerous victories 'and earned him a place with the ‘ Middletown Red Wings this season He is a hard man to get by on the defense while he also is a good of- fensive guard and can be counted on to score a few points when they are needed. He will alternate as running mate to either Tom Lcary or Johnny Bheehan.

New Britain was never headed and, after the first five minutes, not even threatened, for the visitors were rarely able to penetrate the home team's defense and, when they did, their shots were so hurried that they missed them, The club was handicapped by the absence of Tony Kerelejza, who is Twolve Teams fo Start Battles at Rogers Tomorrow Play in the mewly organized In- dustrial Billiard league will open to- morrow night at Rogers Billiard Parlors.

Beveral of the leading men from ill, and Parparian and Rametta were the only two forwards available. Rametta quickly showed his worth by popping in the first score ofter three minutes of play, Gorman tied the count for Manchester & minute later, but then Parparian sent the club ahead and it stayed there. During the remaining 18 minutes of the half the Laurels went scoreless, while New Britain slowly pushed up the tally to 17-2 at the quarter and 17-2 at ‘half-time. Grusha made it 19-3 in the second half before Larson broke the Man- chester jinx with & one-hand shot. The club then rolled along to 31-4 and was in front by 31-6 when the last quarter opened. The last few minutes of the gume saw & passing exhibition by New Britain with no effort being made to shoot at the basket. Walter Grusha was the individual star of the game, In addition to holding Tierney scoreless, the local guard led the attack with six bask- ets, four of them in the second half and all made on the dead run, Par- parian and Goffa also played large parts in the winners’ offensive, with Rametta working in well and Com- pagnone spinning two neat shots into the basket. The club's defense was sturdy, but the game was ®o one-sided that the crowd was unable to become excited about it. The Laurels proved to be far from the great team they once were and the club played with them, The sum- mary Boys' Club a3 wlormscomnr b 8 Parparfan, rf . Rametta, It Goffa, c-If . Boukus, ¢ ..

Havana, Cuba Jan. 29 (P—A turt career extending over a period of 99 years has ended here with the death of Tom (Pop) Cheek, 104-ycar-c1d trainer. Cheek died of heart discase last night. Shortly after “Pop” had seen his horse, Basha, an also-ran in the sec- ond race at Oriental park he com- plained of a violent pain in his chest. Physicians said the “caincr was suffering from heart trouble ibut “Pop” refused to go to a hos- pital, preferring to go back to the stables with his horse. A few hours afterwards the aged trainer dropped dead Dhaside Bash on which he had placed all his money in the after- ncon. | Gives Up Golf After Rugby Game Injuries New York, Jan. 29 (P—Jimmy Law, professional at the Cherry Val- ley club, Garden City, N. Y., has had to give up golf for the winter be cause of injuries received playing Rugby foothall. Law had a winter post at the 8Bhore Hills club in Ber- muda and played on the St. George'r rugby team recently. He suffered a broken rib in a game and had to drop both rugby and golf. He has returned to Garden City to recuper- ate but does not expect to be able to %0 over the links for at least = month. TS 86 RREED, PETE COWN A LEAGLE AND WMLIE NEARLY. sere A N \A\Tzo No matter how high a man may £0 in his chosen racket, it seems natural for him to muse on what he might have accomplished in some other field, 8o it is with sporta. Ace Hudkins, uncrowned middle- weight champlion, feels sure he could have been & big success on the dlamond as he is in the ring. At every opportunity the Ace pulls on a fielding mit and indulges in the game he really enjoys. With his natural speed and quick eys, who can say Hudkins is kidding himselt? Many baseball bugs semember the year Joe Btecher, former heavy- weight wrestling champion of the world, was on the roster of the Philadelphia Nationals as a first baseman. Joe at one time played good ball in the Western league and while he didn’t stick with the Phils, it was due to the more important money that beckoned from the mat. A champion wrestler can plek up around $100,000 & year, while fit' takes a Babe Ruth to drag down that sum in baseball. Pete Latgo, who grabbed the wel- | terweight crown from Mickey' Walker, turned down baseball offers for the big dough of the ring, while Willle Hoppe and Walter Hagen look on with envy every time they take in a ball game. Of course there is such a thing as going t00 far as in the case of Mickey Walker. Who ever has heard the “toy bulldog” attempt to warble will agree he is a whale of a boxer, FIGHTS LAST NIGHT By the Assoclated Press, Chicago—Jackte Flelds, Los Angeles, cutpointed Jack McCarthy, Chicago, (10).

In the short space of 50 seconds in the first round of the feature bout of the weekly amateur fight card at the Stanley Arena last night, Louls Mur- rell of Torrington, featherwelght champion of the state of Connecticut, ended the activity of Eddle Willlams of Bpringfield with a terrific right hand punch on the button. Williams, title holder in the Springfield divi- slon among the 126 pounders, show- ed class for the short time he was in but Murrell, a counterpart of Batta- ' lino, former national champion, met him with a solid left hand punch to the stomach and a right to the jaw that sent the Springfield boy smash- ing to the canvas, done for the night. In the semi-final, Jagk Oakes, subbing for Eddie Ralph of Spring- field, was no match for the power- ful swinging Billle Reeves of Bristol ard Reeves won on a technical knockout in the first round. Reeves hit Oakes with everything and it was only a matter of time and punish- ment for the New Britain colored scrapper. The Springfield team failed to win a bout in the clashes staged here last night. Comparing in no way with the team that used to represent the City of Homes in the past, the Springfield boys, one after the other proved to be hardly any match for the solld, smashing opposition from the Connecticut boys. Four other knockouts dotted the card of 10 fights making a half dosen kayoes in all during the eve- ning. Dominick Frisco of this city in the 122 pound class put George Neno away in two minutes and 50 seconds of the first round. Dominick was altogether too good for the visiting scrapper and Neno was satisfied to | stay down when he was down. Charlie Day of Springfield in the 115 pound class, had to quit in the second round to escape punishment at the hands of Frank Nichols of Torringtan. A towel thrown in from the corner saved Day from a beating. Jimmy DiSante of Springfield was no match for Jackie Basil of Bristol in the 128 pound class and he was stopped by a towel in the first round fight on a technical knockout to Basil. Joe Ryan of this city, converted wrestler, suffered a like fate at the hands of Phil Sica of Torrington in the 147 pound class. Sica hit Ryan with everything and Ryan was done | in less time that it takes to teil. The best fight of the night was |one staged between one of the sec- onds for the 8pringfield team and several of the spectators. Unable to stand the razzing that his boys were getting at the hands of the partisan fans in the bleachers, the Springfield | handler started to argue. He got a punch on the chin and then the po- | lice rushed him out of the hall. The police were awarded the decision. On the regulation card. Kid Carter of Middletown and Frankie Rice of | this city weighing 128 pounds, put up the best scrap of the night. Rice ' won in three rounds of furious fighting. Carter failed to be aggres- sive in the first two rounds but he started to fight like a tiger in the third. This should be a good return match. In an old-fashioned slugging ton, outpointed Frankie Schoel, Buf- falo, (12), match, Cyclone Sweeney of Torring- ton defeated Walter Kratky of | | Springfield in three rounds. Sweeney went down for the count of nine in the second round and Kratky had tho fight in his pocket but he missed terrific swings about 20 times through the clever back peddling of 8weeney. Sweeney took the first and third rounds by a wide margin, Partisans in the crowd failed to agree with Referee John Willis in his decision, “Sunny Boy" Hayden, the boy with the smile that won't come off and one of the most popular of the amateurs to fight in this city, gave a jgreat exhibition against Johnny | Delvio of 8pringfield in their bout at | 114 pounds. “Sunny Boy" started a piston like barrage in the second round but the Springfield boy, the best of his team, stood and socked toe to toe with him. Hayden's victory iwas well-earned. Tony Damiana defeated Willie Levinson of Springfleld in three |rounds in the 135 pound class. | Damiana has a penchant for hitting low and he violated the foul rule |several times. These blows might have weakened Levinson who put up a great scrap for the three rounds against heavy odds. It was announced last night that | for the star bout on next Monday night's card, Buddy Howard, state heavyweight champlon, will be matched with Billle Reeves of Bristol. This should be & wow of & fight. Howard has yet to be de- feated in the amateur ring in Con- necticut. - MICHIGAN BANS BARRY Referee Who Figured in “Long Count” at Chicago Can’t Referce in the §tate, Chicago, Jan. 29 M—Dave Barry Chicago referece, today wondered whether Michigan planned te bar him from its boxing rings because he tolled the famous “long count” in the Dempsey-Tunney ch: mpion | ship match here in 1927. Chairman James Brown of the Michigan State Athletic comm:ssion last night announced Barry would not > allowed to officiate in Michi- gan rings, but refused to give the reason. “I can hardly believe the so-called ‘long count’ is the cause,” sald Barry, “but if it was because of a state law requiring one year’s resi- dence in Michigan, I believe Brown would have said so. I recall that Jack Dempsey was allowed to ref- eree thers last June and he is not, or was not a resident. :Owner of Pool Parlor, Raided, Loses His License Chief W. C. Hart of the police de- partment today revoked the pool room license held by Harry Dill in the Nair block opposite St. Mary's church on Main street, and an- 'nounced that he will not issue an- other license for the place because of its reputation as a rendeszvous for gamblers.
