 CTS Last Night-Close Score and We'll Played Game-Wallingford
 Was Very Easy for Bridgeport.
 Hartford, Nov 14.-Hartford's basket 2 ball team lost the game to Waterbury last night by one goal. Hartford made bne goal that was not rung up on tne score board because it was made altSr the referee blew his whistle. IT ne had waited a quarter of second the goal would have counted. Captain 3 Oakes was not in the game last night. He was in the game so hard the nght before at Stamford that he was oolsed l to take a little more time to recupef- ate. The team played the South Nor walks at Stamford, as South Norwalk does not boast of 8 rink at present. IL s imported some players from New York who were as well up in the points of the twenty-four foot ring as they were in the science of the basketball arena, and some of the Hartford players took |the count.
 Y Tim Horan handled the team last night, and while he did not have much to handle he played a great individual game, caging eight goals during the session. four in each period. The other members of the Hartford team did not show up well. Sheehan made several misses of easy shots at the cage Lef1ngweI did not live up to his reputation and about the middle or the last period he was replaced by Gladding. The sub started in by mak- ing a goal. As team Waterbury out played the Hartfords, and had 1t not been for the great work of Horan the score would have been larger. Wa terbury outweighed the local team and was more clever in passing.
 There was but one accident, Knight, the right forward of the Waterburys, being put out of commission tempora- rily when three men fell on him. He felt of his head and when he found 1t was still there he jumped into the game again. The Waterbury manager showed good judgment in changing his center in the second period Jaeger replaced Reeves and the new player made five of the seven Waterbury goals during that time. Armbruster
 who is Of the family of base ball play CTS, was one of the heayyweights on the Waterbury team and he had three fouls charged up to him in the last half. Mir Mortram of wallingford was the referee and some of the spectators hooted him for not calling more fouls.
 A bank was placed around the playing
 enclosure last night and this was a big Improvement. A new gong is still needed. The gong is one that has been used for fistic encounters and it needs tuning. The timekeeper pulled on it last night until he was blue in the face and no sound was forthcoming. The rnfcrpo O. Axo hn notified 4h ha'+ fiT10n xra up by word of mouth. The attendance was about 500.
