WON BUT ONE GAME
Boneyards Start We'll, Defeat ing Springfield, But Finish
 Poorly.
FIVE BATTLES THIS WEEK
At Bridgeport o-night--McGi GiIvray's $ Grays and Mallory's Pads Com-
 ing Tomorrow.

A good start but poor finish cost New Haven three games out of their four played last week, Starkie's Spring field aggregation being the only five which the Boneyards could lay low.
 This week finds New Haven in Bridgeport tonight, If the local quin- tet play together and if Farrell espec- ially will restrain his desires to be a rusher the Elm City five should win the game. Last week in three of the games Farrell eareessly and against Bones commands, moved away from his position at center and worked around the opponents goal. The kind of playing although it shows the am bition of the player and at times his skill in caging goals. weakens the de- the poorest of the year and the real cause of the trouble is Farrell's poor judgment. He should stick to the de- fense and let Bone and Schiller or Warner control the offense which they are easily capable of doing.
 Tomorrow night will mark the ap- pearance of Providence and a chance will be given the locals to see the diff ference in size of Mallorys guards now to what they were the night of the pro tested game here. Most Of the league managers have agreed with Bone and say that they will back him in the Nal. lory shin pad question. The magnates say that on the night and since the night the picked committee decided tho Grays goal tenders guards were only eight inches wide and had but one ap pliance on the side, Mallory's pads were at least four inches smaller. "Th, referees word Is law and by this ruli the league will have to abide.
 Friday night McMahon's Rough Rid CTS are due here and as the tailender' are working hard to thrust themselves into the lime light we must beware Saturday (Washingtons birthday) dou ble headers will be in order In the af ternoon the locals play in Bridgeport and in the evening at Waterbury.

JANSWICK IS NEXT Another Prominent Candidate for State Championship
 Looms Up. IS WORTHY OF A TRIAL If Hill Will csnsaVt to Give Independ- ents' Bowler Chance at Con-
 necticut Honors.

prominent candidate for the state bowling championship is Arthur Jans- wick who has now returned to the big pin game and threatens another ex- change of Connecticut honors.
 Janswick has not dealt in the biE game since Huber Independents last battle. The great bowler has confined his work to the duck pins at which he has achieved many honors. The rate at which the championship has been floating around has led this mighty pin-knight to reflect and in this refiec- ton sweep aside all past remembran- ces and thus after a week of training to endeavor to step into the ring with the beat and throw himself to his abil- ity and fate.
 Hill has robbed righteously from Weber the championship and will hold such until defeated. Many bowlers are seeking matches with the Yale and state champion but he no doubt re- marks many are called but few are chosen" Charlie Johnson has stated that If any one wants to roll Hill that bowler has got to defeat him (John- son) first. Janswick and many others are ready to do this but this really seems unnecessary. The ability of such bowlers as Janswick, Collett and Hu- Der is well known and if Hill Is not yet acquainted with their rating John son can easily tell them their standing in the bowling circle of Connecticut.
 Hill has by cool-headedness and good rolling worked his way up into the throne of honor and there is not the slightest doubt but what he is ready to meet all corners who can show a sufficient right to spring to cham ship,

TAU GIRLS fInof DrT'EAT.
High School Basketball Team Lose to
 MiddletOwn Five.

In a very fast and exciting game the Phi Delta Tau Girls were defeated by the St. Veronica quintet at Middletown, Saturday afternoon by the score of lS to 1. Although the score does not ln- dicate it the Tau girls certainly put up a fine exhibition of basketball. Their defeat was greatly due to the fact that this was the first ut-oftown game the Tau Girls had participated in, and also that their opponents greatly outweigh ed them, Considering this the Tau Girls played brilliantly.
 Although the New Haven girls lost, they intend to turn the trick on the Middletown girls, when they play them return game on their own floor. This is the first game the Tau Girls have lost, and they intend to put in good deal of practice the following week, under the coaching of MT. Hoff- meister.
 A dance was held after the game, and the Tau Girls enjoyed themselves im- mensely, being given a good time by the Middletown girls.
 The Tau girls are to play the Omega girls, another team of the New Haven High school, next Saturday afternoon. at Anderson's gym. AS the Tau girls have already beaten the Omegas. they are confident of winning the next game also.
 The Tau girls would like to receive challenges from any other High school girls teams averaging about 12O pounds
 The lineup was as follows:

 Local Quintet.

Before small crowd the New Ha- ven high school quintet defeated the Bridgeport five in very one-sided game at Andersons gymnasium Sat- urday night by the score of 45 to IS. The game was an easy one for the local team, for the Bridgeport high school five were altogether out of their class, putting up . poor exhibi- tion. The Bridgeport high team had some substitutes playing, as some of the regular players were debarred from playing on account of poor work in their studies.
 For New Haven Saxe did great work skipping the ball into the basket four times, while it was in the adr netting 8 points. He is certainly good ball, and has a good eye for shooting goals. and also does fine passing. Dustin and Frankel also showed up we'll, both securing many baskets.
