TAFTVILLE DEFEATED. Big Crowd in Armory to Witness Sat- urday Night's Game. A big crowd assembled in the Arm- ory Saturday evening to sse the Thread City Cyclers defeat the fast Taftville five in ‘a game replets with action and genuine old-time sport, for the contest was piayed in a cage the same as it used to be in the days when Mayor Dunn had his crack aggregation of players that made everything step & lively pace in the league when profes- sional pasketball had a strong hold up- on the public in this section of the state. It was a strenuous, exciting game, and at the end of the first half the home team led by a narrow margin, the score heing 13-11. Because of the en- closed surface there were many fouls, and the game appeared much rougher than was really the case. The crowd cheered, hooted and howled as of yore, and there was the most enthusiasm shown at any time this season. Taft- ville_was well represented with root- erg in the gallery.

Defeats Wesleyan. Windham High schéol added still {another to_its long list of basketball victorfes Saturday afternoon, when it succeeded in defeating the Wesleyan university second team in what proved to be the fastest and most fiercely con- tested game of the season in the Y. M. C. A. gymnoasium, before an enthusi- astic’ audience. The first haif was an exceedingly fast and was full of fine teamwork and ex- cellent blocking, and the visitors clos- ed.with a lead of 9- Windham started the final session still faster, and soon got a lead that it maintained until the close of the game. The passing in this half was superb, and although Wesleyan second was composed of a bunch of good rugged young men, they could mot withstand the mierry pace set by the High school boys, who scored just twice as many points during the half as the visitors.
