FAST BASKETBALL GAME ; AT TAFTVILLE TODAY Yes, they'll all be there in Parish hall' at. 230 today, “Hap” Harman, captain and star of Wesleyan, and a member of the Crescents last season when they won the championship from " Milford, Mass,; “Chief” Tar- sen,.who was a big factor in the Em- erald’s two vistories over the. Taft- ville boys, “Yump” Johnson, Jacobson, tephamian, Scholfield, Joe Smith and ronin, a former Ben Hur star. This bunch is about as classy as anything that has ever appeared on the Taft- ville floor, as the Crescents are now just getting into their stride the fans are sure to see a great game. 3 Manager Benoit says the Nutmegs are a fast bunch of stars, but the fans will see Crescents stepping at the live- liest clip they have ever seen them vet, as they have made more progress during the past week in their training than they have ever shown. As an added attraction there will be a lively contest between the Rough and Tumbles vs. Bear Cats. There is much rayvalry between these two teams, as the Coleman brothers and McSheffrey brothers are represented on both teams, and it will be a treat to see what the younger brothers have promised to do to their older brothers. = The preliminary will start at 2.30 p. m.

New York, Dec. 31.—The final siont 0f a memorable vear on the stock exchange was attendgd by ‘a vigorous buying movement. The advance com- prebended an unusual variety of is- sues’and was almost uninterrupted in the face of a 25 per cent. r#te for de- mand loans, an utter lack of time mon- ey and vet another rise in discounts by the federal reserve bank. An unusual feature of the extensive dealings was the heavy cash selling of many popular isues, this being nec- essary to estahlish - inenme fax: re- turps for the expiring year.

Automobile Notes. In removing insulation from strand- ed wires, be very careful not to cut any of the fine threads. These are so small that is is an easy matter to slice off five or six with the insula- tion. Eoca of these strands does its share in carrying the current to the lamps. In replacinz 2 bearing on a front wheel spindle on which it is a tight fit many owners slip the bearing onto the taper end of the spindle and then put on the wheel.and use it as a ham- mer to drive the bearing home. This is a great mistake. The bearing is likely to be broken, as it 1z intended for wear and not for sudden shocks of this kind. Small bright metal objects. such as screws, may -be blued by the simple process of placing them on a piece of sheet metal and holding it over a fire until the parts being treated have assumed the desired color, Frequently it is necessary for the car owner who does his own repair work to file a piece of cast iron that has been subjecteq to friction and so has acquired a glaze or skin. The best way to get through this skin is to use the edges of an olg file. If a new file is used on this sort of sur- face it is likely to be ruined. “Alcohol and water is a simple an- The following table giving the freezing points of this so- lution is sufficiently- close for all practical purposes. “10 per cent mixture freezes at about 25 degrees F. 20 per cent mix~ ture freezes at about 5 degrees below zero, 40 per cent. mixture freees at ebout 20 degrees below ero. ‘When a motor car, after being cranked, runs for a minute or two and then stops, the first place to look for the cause of the trouble is the gaso- lene food line. A partial stoppage in the pipe will lessen the flow of fuel so that the float chamber fills slowly. On being started the motor at once con- sumes this gasolene and then has to wait for more. There is another pos- sible cause for this trouble and that is the float of the carburetor stick- ing. Of course if the float sticks in a high position the flow of fuel will be greatly lessened or even stopped. Pores and Plant Score. Two New York boys were much in the limelight during the year in rec- ord-breaking achievements. Charles Pores of the Millrose A. A. established two new American marks in winning the Metropolitan Association 15 mile | championship run when he 22 3-5 220 yards in 22 3-5 seconds. while an- other record was smashed when the University of Pennsylvania four-man relay team ran 440-yards in 42 4- seconds. ! In an eight-mile walk at Macomb's Dam Park, Richard F. Remer, then representing the New York Athletic Club, traversed this distance in the unprecedenteq time of 1 hour 1 min- ute 24 seconds. The American team honors were re- gained by the New York Athletic Club, which re-entered championship competition after the end of the war. In the junior competitions the Winged Foot won easily with 34 points. In the senior meet the New. York contin- gent received the strongest opposition from the Chicago A. A, but the “Whales” of the Winged Foot team, Pat McDonald and Matt McGrath, were responsible for pulling out the victory. The New York boys collect- ed 46 points. icago A. A., 40, and Ulinois A. C., 26 points, Loren Murchison, formerly of St. Louis but now of this city covered the full distance in 1 hour and 23 minutes 24 1-5 seconds, and at the end of one hour’s running had covered 10 miles 1,492 yards. William Plant of Brooklyn won the 15-mile “Met” walking title in the new time of 2 hours 6 minutes 13 1-5 seconds, and for twi hours of walking covered the record distance of 14 miles 430 yards 6 inches.
