o ~ THIS AFTERNOON BATTERY B FIVE OPENS SEASON \ i AT STATE ARMORY o s e e All rosds lead to the State Armory this afternoon when the sporting blood of basketball fans and fanettes will be aroused as they witness “Scotty” Hig- gins' Al-Stars battle on the chalked court against the newly formed BDattery B five, formerly the speedy Crescent A._A. quintet. Basketball at the Armory is an in- novation and the management of the Battery athletics has a fine holiday bill, for in signing up players for the Battery team and in booking Higging' All-Stars the fans will witness a battle between the fastest players in this section of the state. Up to a late heur it could not be learned what two players Higgins had secured to round out his quintet but he has guaranteed the Battery that they will be on par with Leo Norman- din and Bill Reddy, his forwards, which means, as fast as can be secured in the As_announced in Saturday's Bulletin, the Battery five will lineap with “Joe” Belair, left forward, Jim Murphy of last years Tattville Kaceys and Emery Da- Vis, Y. M. C. A’s basketball coach, who has starred in Vermont and New Hamp- ehire teams, will alterngfe at right for- ward.

As an extra attraction the Norwich Girls' team, something new in the vi- cinity will lineup against a fast Willi- mantic Girls’ team. It is rumored that the majority of the Willimantic team | is composed of the American Girls' team, who lost the nu-; cham- plonship last year by one basket. The Norwich giris are showing their wpunk by taking on such fast oppoments and . they sure will receive the support of the Norwich fans their grit. Mrs. Flo Coilins, who is captain and eoach of the team states that the girls pave improved wonderfully since the beginning, of the season and they prag- tice evfy opportunity they have. The lineup of the Norwich Girls' team will be the Misses Donegan, rf, . S Stearns 1f, Mrs. Flo Collins c. F. Dunion rg, L. Irwin lg, L. Willette, G. Ki- kenny, subs. 3 The Willimantic Girls: Misses “Dot” Curran If, Marcilla Kegler rf, E. Devoll ¢, and the Welch sisters at guard. The preliminary game will start at 230 and the fans are sure of plenty of excitement for the holiday.

Jealousy is a terrible trait of charac- ter; if every one was dominated by it. there would be no Christmas/ for Such @ spirit is entirely foreign to the Christ- mas spirit. Jealousy has caused a large portion of the troubles in this old world. Socialism, carried® to the extreme is rooted in jealousy.- We find it at times among business men, and once in a while we find it In the church. At ‘times the family life is blighted by jealousy, as was the case in Joseph's fam- ily, and family jealousy is sad indzed.

This American girl rather fa- tigue from her Christmas shopping, sleeps in a Morris chair while the oth- ers,“one by one, appeal to her in vain effort to be remembered at this Christ- mas_time; while a violin solo, Loves Greeting, by Elgar, is_heard in the dis- tagee in soft, melodious tones. After the las™one has made her plea, the com- pany of girls sing Christmas carols ap- jparently on the outside, while the one who has been sleeping, awakes and wonders what it all means and whether or not she has been dreaming. However, the American girl still has one more day with which to do more shopping and it Johnson, el, Rich- 1 would remember all who had visited her home during her sleep.
