NEW Speaking of Sports The Bristol and Meriden Endees will clash tomorrow - night at the state armory in Meriden in the first game of a home and home scries between the two. The second game of the clash will be staged at Bris- tol Saturday night. This is the last drive of Meriden and Manager Jack Curry for the state championship. At the present time, the teams are tied at two-all in games won against cach other and the winner of the two games will have the edge, Curry plans to use Wineapple and Cook at forwards, Entrup at center and Conway and “Red” Lingner nll guards, Herby Kochansky, sports editor of the Meriden Morning Record, has ‘undertaken to explain the slump of | the Meriden Findees and the down- 7all as a scoriag ace of Herb Cohen. We will quote him and his writirgs will explain thcmselves. “Basketball gossip throughout the | state is centering on tne slump of | the Endees in general and the scor- | ing nose-dive of Herb Cohen in par- | ticular, | *“Working on the Cohen angle and | desiring to know the whys and the | wherefores. this department con-| ducted a little investigation of |(l{ own, which resulted in the d!gging- up of the following facta: “(1)—Cohen had never been held £coreless from tie floor until last Thursday night when he registerel & lonely foul against New Britain, “(2)—He had never been shut out without a po'nt until he went completely scorcless against New Britain at New Fritain Saturday night. *(3)—Herb himself can't explain Fis suddea and surprising and dis- astrous slump and the resuiiant tuil-spin of the Cu “At the boitom of it all, writer's private opinion, is “Hanl Arburr of New Brit who w3 1 cthing mors or less than a good Jvnior player last 1T “Arburr started it by holding Co- 1:n to a basket and a foul at New Pritaim about a month ago. 1t wasn't 1until the tast 10 seconds of play that lerb clicied with his fleld goal.

I can’t explain my slump—guess Arburr’s got my goat—but we're through with New Britain and perhaps T'll Liave more luck against Bristol'.” The Fort Wayne team last night defeated Rochester 22 to 13 and thereby won the second half cham- pionship of the American league. The team will now play the Cleve- Jand Rosenblooms, winners of the first half, for the championship of the league for the entire season, The Brockton, Mass., school board votod last night to allow Brockton High school team to go to Chicago 10 compete in the national basketball tournament conducted by the Uni- versity of Chicago April 2 to 6. The team will be the representative High achool team of Massachusetts. This picture is not particularly an- | | tigue, but it is one of the rarest and | most remarkabie that ever has been taken.
