Speaking of Sports Chancs that New Britain and the Bristol Endecs would engage in an- other basketball game were relegat ed to the ash heap last night when at a conference between the two managers, Joe Carroll of Bristol re- fused to play any further, claiming that his team had won the state championship last Saturday when it defeated New Britain. Manager Lanpher stated today L he was sutisfied to allow the stol Endees to claim the cham- plonship because as' far as the aver- ages for the season go, Bristol has a point advantage that cannot be questioned, He said that he would await another season to get another crack at the Endees. The basketball public, in this ci At lcast, wasn't anxious to see New Liritain and Bristol play again. The majority of the funs felt that the game last Saturday showed that the New Britain team was inferior to Tiristol. On the surface of things Bristol was by far the better team on the floor and we believe that Manager Carroll is right in claiming tho championship.

Shutout Victory The Washington-Columbus Five set what is believed to be a New Britain record when they blanked the Dixie Speedboys by 50-0 in a game which was merely shooting practice for the winners. The los- ing team did not have more than two shots at the hoop and was on the short end of the score from the moment Hubay counted on the one- two play at the first tap. The Wash- ington-Columbus outfit ran up 14 points in the first quarter, 13 in che sccond, and 20 in the third, then coasted. Sam Capodice and Hubay featured, while each winning guard got five baskets. The only chances the Josers had to score were on their £ix foul shots, and they blew them all.

The start was slow, and it was not only n the end of the quarter that Havlick finally put in a shot. Hc scored thrice again in the sccond period and his team moved out we in front.
