 Locals I.osc Final Game The basketball team of the Plain Nillc junior group of the Hartford l County Y. NJ. C. A, went down 10 de- feat at tho hands of the West Sutfield group team in tho Hartford Y. NJ. C. A. building Saturday. The locals were outclassod in every department of the game which was the final one for tho championship of the county. The score was .i to in favor of West Suifield.
 One thing was evident in connec- ton with tho final contest and that was the lack Of team cooperation. This was caused through no fault Of tho players themselves. but rather through tho absence Of a proper place in which to practice. The West Suf- field team was trained toahe minute. The locals were in god condition, but their defeat Is attributed to thc fact that thoy have been unable to prac- tive sufficiently to meet such com petition as was furnished Saturday afternoon. plainville has no basket ball court and the locals have been trailiing faithfully in Forcstville. but the few times week that they were able to secure the floor there was not enough 10 overcome the handicap which they met. Those interested hope that sometime within tho very near future, gymnasium will be fur. ] nished the boys.
