An exciting and rather rough game of
basket ball was played in the armory
last evening between the Nutmeg Ath-
letic club team of New Britain and Co.
KS team of Wallingford. The game re-
suited in a score of ~ to no. in favor of
Co. KS team, although the second halt
was not finished. 1t had previously
been agreed by the two teams to play
seven men on side but last evening
the New Britain team objected to this
and refused to play with more than
five on a side, and this was finally
agreed to.
In the first half New Britain made
goal from outside the lines and this was
allowed by the referee to save trouble,
but when the same thing was done in
the second half the goal was not allow
ed New Britain refused to continue
| the game unless the goal was allowed,
and the referee, persisting in his de-
| cision, they left the floor, thus losing
| the guarantee of $12. Only ten minutes
| were played on the second half. The
| referee was r. J. Lane. manager of the
| Wallingford team. O'Brien of Walling-
| ford was cut about the eye in the first
| half and did not play the second half.
The attendance was good. Co. KS
