NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, MARCH 21, 1930. 1t was agreed that, in the event cach team won one victory, the margins between the teams in the three games would determine the championship. The local quintet de- feated Wapping by 11 points and |lost to Plainville by two, giving it & |‘margin” of nine. Plainville lost to Wapping by six and took New Brit- ain by two, making its final figure a minus four, while Wapping ended with minus five.

Taylor's victory was not totally decisive and the bout itsel? was not for the championship. There was more interest at the New Britain-Wapping game Wed- nesday night in what margin New Britain needed than in who had made the last basket or would make the next. The Wapping supporters kept raising their estimates, start- ing at five and finally reaching eight, bue the 11-point gap piled up by the The outcome of the fight in De- locals outstripped all their claims. i troit brings us back to ti night | that Battalino fought Fernandez IHartford.

Last Saturday the Tigers, champs of the “Y'" Basketball league, journeyed to Saybrook to play the town te which had won 27 out of 29 games. e Just six players made the trip, there being no scorckeeper or tini- er.
