NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MONDAY, MARCH 24, 1930 11 _— _ e . Speaking of Sports Tomorrow night at 7:30 o'clock, lce hockey enthusiasts will meet in the office of the Swift & Upson Lum- ber Co. on Elm street to form an assoclation in this city for the pro- Tmotion of the game. Those who sign up tomorrow night will be charter members of the club which will have as its ambition, the formation of an ice hockey club in this city, the construction of a rink and the de- velopment of players. Tce hockey is hailed in many quarters as the most popular winter sport in the United States and a finc sporting city such New should not be without a rink and the facilities for the game. Everyvone interested in the pro- Jeet, is invited to attend the meeting tomorrow night. High schools throughout the state have ice hock- ey teams and therc is no reason why New Britain should not be rep- resented in this field. With one Hartford paper issuing daily alibis for Bat Battalino’s defeat at the hands of Bud Taylor of Terre Haute, fight fans in this city espe- cially have become skeptical over the question of whether Battalino +has lost his punch or not. Battalino was defeated in Detroit the past week by Taylor. Taylor is now demanding a return bout for the title. He has been offer- ed another non-titic match but he and hi$ handlers don't think so kindly about this. Battaline has been defeated twice in non-title battles, once in Philadelphia by Massey and last week in Detroit by Taylor. Until he fights either one of thesc men in a title scrap, there will be plenty of doubt in this section about whether he can retain his feather- weight title or not. Plans are in the works for a gam: between the National Guard basket- ball team and the Corbin Screw quin- tet, championship outfit of the New Britain Industrial League. This con- test will be staged Thursday night at a place to be designated. The Corbin Screw team is also planning to play several games out of town in order that the players may keep in trim for the coming state industrial league championship tournaments. The local team, this season, is a favorite to come through to win the state title. A contest Detween the National Guards and the winner of the In- dustrial pennant, should prove to be an interesting feature for the bas- Ketball fans of this city. Both teams will be evenly matched and plenty of action is expected when they clash, BULLDOGS BEAT HI-Y The Bulldogs basketball team de- feated the Hi-Y quintet in a well played game at the Y. M. C.

Indian Pltchers Not Behind in Training New Orle March 24, (P)—Wes Teerrell and Willis Hudlin, backbone of the mound staff, have convinced the Indians their late arrivals after | playing holdout didn't set them back in getting into condition.

Tate of Yankees Rests In Hands of Recruits St. Peters , Il he. fate of the ew York Yan- kees seems to lie in the hands of Dusty Cooke and Ben Chapman, two recruits from the St. Paul club of the American Association. Together they' will patrol the left side of the Yankee defense, Cooke in left field and Chapman at third base. There have been whispers that neither will be in the regular lineup when the regular season starts but Man- ager Bob Shawkey insists that both will start.

March 24 (A)—Crashing, lumbering with giant strides toward the Prince of Wales, a great bull elephant was killed by hunters W days ago when it charged the Bri heir. The pachyderm stumbled and fell, never to.rise again, within 20 vards of his royal highness. The Prince, oblivious to his dan- ger, throughout the charge continued operation of a emall motion picture camera and secured an excellent film, which included the fall of the clephant. The hunters accompanying the prince shouted warnings as the ele- phant, angered at invasion of his re- treat, lifted his trunk, trumpeting, and started direct for the party.

Despite the fact that several of | the stars of the New Britain team were playing elsewhere during the cvening, the home club came through in fine style. Ray Holst and “Huggie” Carlson put in exgeptiona! exhibitions and they were backed up completely by their mates defensive- ly. E. Todd and H. Mattson were the best bets for the losers both defens- ively and offensively, “Nibby” Nyborg started the scor- ing with a pretty toss from the side of the court. He was followed by ssie” Larson with a long toss and Ray Holst with a “sucker.” Todd started Springficld on the scoring run with a foul and a two-®ointer. Th minutes after the second period began, E. Johnson was given the air because of personal fouls. This was his first appearance with the Swedes. “IHuggie” Carlson hook- ed in two nice shots to increase the New Britain advantage, Upon resumption of play after half time intermission, the locals slowly but surely drew away from the visit- ors. In the last session, however, Springfield, led by Todd and Matt- <on, staged a spirited rally. However, the final whistle stamped out their chances for victory.
