NEW HAyEN's ANSWER.
Local Basketball Quintet Explains
 Reason for Playing Out of Town.

The management of the New Haven basketball team has sent communi- cation to this office in which 1t takes exception to the manner in which To- cal papers have been crticlsing It's action in not arranging games with local teams, instead of always going out of town In avery few words the management expresses its sentiments for not arranging games with the local shooters and those few words are: There Is no money In it."
 Manager Sullivan, who may be found at the Pabst cafe on Chapel street explains that his stars go to New York next week for which they arc to receive s75 Now If any local team will post s75 guarantee why Mr. Sullivan says that he is willing to do business with them.
 And he further claims that his stars will give any local team or i'm fact any team in the state a good wal loping as his center, Serenson, can hold his own with any of them,
