NORWICH BULLETIN, MONDAY. » DECEMBER 27, = BEN HURS LOSE TWO GAMES Taftville and Jewett City Fives Outplay Hartford Boys on Christmas Day—Capital City Quintette Unable to Counteract th_e Speed of the Winners. The Ben Hurs of Hartford, consid- ered one of the fastest quintettes in the Capital City, were defeated twice in this vicinity on Christmas after- noon and evening. In the aftergoon they played against Taftville and were outplayed in the latter half of the game after they had secured 6 1-2 points in the lead. In the first half the Ben Hurs showed good speed, but when Taftville placed on the floor the old famous combination that has put Taftville on the basketball map the Ben Hurs were left trailing along in the rear, unable to_score a_point’ White, Vickery and Corrin were in the limelight. White scored 6, Vickery 8, and Corrin 4 baskets. The Jackson-Stanley guard position in the second half was unpierceable. work and O'Connell's ability to pick out and develop new champions will give Cornell an opportunity to win another title this year. The Cornell coach expects that Me- Keage, who was hurt in his bout a year ago, will improve this year, that Kleinert will be good for at least the same number of points he scored & year ago, and that both MacKenzie and Sager will be able to do better work this year. He must develop, however, £00d men for the 116 pound class, the 135 and 158. Of the 100 men who have so far re- ported, there are very few aspirants for places among the heavyweights the candidates for the middleweights are also rather scarce, but there are a considerable number of good men out for the lightweights.

As the first bell rang be made a mad rush, but was met with a dozen lefts to the face. Flynn, al- though aggressive, was no match for the clever Battler. The funny feature of the show was when Flynn's second would tell him to bore in and Flynn would be sidestepped by Levinsky and popped on the chin. - Levinsky lacks the stopping punch, and although he always boxes on the offensive, cannot knock out his opponent. This was seen when the Battler landed on Flynn's head and wind, shaking the fireman, but not doing any serious damasge. It would be no exaggeration to say that Levinsky handed four times as many real swats as did Flynn. De- spite this, Morgan's durable Battler was unable to subdue his rival. Flynn Is a bear for punishment. He took everything that came his way, shook his head, and then bored in again for more, with the result that every once in a while Levinsky would look as- Right Forward. VACKErY .ceeoeeoceun..nn....

Jewctt City defeated the Ben Hurs of Hartford Saturday evening in the Bijou hall, Jewett City, by a score of 54 to 37, in the fastest and cleanest vreparedness. Cornell Successful. Cornell has been unusually success- ful in wrestling since she took up the sport as an intercollegiate game about 1y years ago. The Ithacans won one championship under the coaching of Eddie O’Connell of New Haven, a for- mer Yale coach, but it was not until Eddie O’Connell’'s brother, Walter, went to Ithaca that the Cornellians es- tablished their complete superiority over all other eastern institutions. Cornell has wrested from Yale lau- rels which the New Haven institution had held for years. The last time the Ithacans lost an intercollegiate cham- pionship was in 1911, when they were tonished and step back to see why Flynn did not drop. The -fireman landed several good smashes, chief among them being a left to the neck in the second round. which shot Levinsky to the ropes as though a battering ram had hit him. The Battler soon shook off the effects of the clout and managed -to stall through the rest of the round. In the fourth, after the men had been mixing for two minutes, Flynn shot a left to the Battler's chin that had him groggy for the rest of the round, but that ended Flynn's spurt, and after that it was the Battler all the way.
