The local | crew, standing two games down to Albany in the championship serics, came through with a victory last night by the score of 9 to 6. | Strange as it may seem, the team | appears to have plenty of offensive | power in the three series games. It has scored a total of 26 goals in three games already played but despite this, it has lost two of the three. The team last night developed an | unexpected defense and the players devoted their time to bottling up | Steve Pierce. Lundeville was forced | to retire from play in the second ! period and Bob Peregrin got into the game in his place. New Britain took advantuge of this and cag four goals. | These proved to be too much for | Albany. id® Williams, we think, has more in and out goals than any other polo player.

Leto met Battalino here recently and had a technical kayo chalked up against him, but he had the really sound alibi of having been traveling through a snow blocked area all day, arriving in Hartford but a short time before he was| slated to get into the ring. He showed flashes of real ring| talent and he had Battalino down | carly in the fight, something that| had never been accomplished since | Bat turned professional. | There are many here who believe | Leto will give Battalino a furious battle if they meet again. Lord was offered a match with! Battalino many months ago, but he wasn't ready then; now he is eager for the chance to get into the ring | against the local knockout king. | Thursday night's bout is sct for | ten rounds and a real battle is in prospect. Lord is in fine shape and there are like reports from Leto's camp.
