 ketball Team.
CHANGE FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
Game With Winner of BristOl-New Britain Contest Would Settle
 Disputed Title.

After meeting defeat at the hands of the New Britain five at New Britain during the early part of the season, the New Haven High school turned the ta- ble. by defeating the former at the tAnderson's gymnasium. Saturday night by the score of 36-SO. As was expect ed this game proved to be one of great interest, both teams putting up star exhibitions. The New Britain players. especially did fine shooting and pass ing. making many long. and clean shots, The New Haven boys also showed up well, surprising the visit ors by their fine work.
 For the local team Saxe, Frankel and Frazer excelled. doing good work. Many of Frankels goals were due to the quick passing of Sake, who hardly ever tries for a basket. when there is any chance of passing. Frazer played a good all around game. netting four difficult baskets. For the New Bri- tain quintet Dunn played the best game, shooting six goals thereby net ting 12 points.
 The largest crowd of the season wit messed the game and enjoyed 1t im- menseiy. Everything proved successful for not only did the team win, but Manager Bird stated that the local team was cleared of its debt and that | it had fine chances of coming out ahead. This is certainly great work, since the debt amounted to nearly sSO. The present indications for the bask- etball outlook of the High school is very good, for the local boys have a good chance in the state interscholastic championship. They have beaten Wa terbury High school and are tied with the Bristol and New Britain quintets The Bristol and New Britain teams will play next Saturday night to de- eide which is the best team. It would be well if game could be secured with the winner on neutral floor The championship would then be settled Besides this 1t would prove to be a good money proposition for the High 1 school management.
