 Afternoon

Sport followers of the city will get the opportunity to see the N. B. H. s. bask etball team in action next Satur- day afternoon when they play the fast South Manchester High school team at the State Armory. The boys are anxious to defeat the Silk Town boys, since a victory will make them one of the foremost contenders for the state tit'e, and will also put them on even terms with the Hartford team who defeated South Manchester by a mar TOW margin.
 Like New Britain, the South Man chester team has only one veteran left. They have had successful sea- son so far. and they will come here Saturday determined to beat the Red and Gold team.
 Starting this afternoon the New Britain team will hold practice ses- sions every afternoon this week ex- cept Friday. Tine team is playing bet ter ball every time it goes out on the court, and have developed teamwork, but that isn't all they have developed since the season opened. Those who hdNS hdu luS pppoiluiIty to ece lle boys practice and play havo noticed the fine spirit in which they go about their work.
 The lineup of the team will be changed for the game Saturday as it was for the game against Meriden last Saturday German, who has been taking Grips place at right guard was declared ineligible by the school au- thorities for the rest of the semester. The semester will end on the first of February so that "Dickie" will have the opportunity to get himself set in the meantime. Johnnie" Grip, who has been out of the lineup for the past two weeks may be all right for the game Saturday, but if he isn't Hal" Beagle will again take his place.

 Second Game.
Goal Fouls Total
Saturday Night League.

The Pawnees must have been inn bibing freely of some kind of fire water for the way they tore into the Bear Cats was a caution. The Bear Cats not to be outdone in speed and roughness were just a jump ahead of their opponents in the first half, but were forced to bow in defeat before the uncanny shots of Richman and Bucheri who won the game for the Pawnees. Ingraham for the Bear Cats. in the absence of their regular captain, acted in that capacity. and through his excellent leadership kept the team going at top speed. Firm haber, Richman, Bucheri played splendidly for the Pawnees. while for the Bear Cats Ingraham, Fogelson, Dornart played their positions well.
 The Wild Cats, fresh from their victory of the previous week over the teading team, the Bear Cits, proved too much for the Cubs. Delano of the Wild Cats tossed in eight field goals and Baros of the same team, who never saw basketball before he joined the association, played a whale of a game. In fact these two with the assistance of their teammates, won for the Wild Cats
 Bert Mardon demonstrated that he still had a few kicks left, and shot two field goals for the Cubs and played his position well for the Cubs.

HORNSBY NOT INVOLVED
Braves and Cards However, Plan to Complete Important Baseball Deal Sometime Today.

New York, Jan. 21.-A deal be- tween the Boston Braves and the St. Louis Cardinals is expected to be completed within two weeks by club officials who concluded a weekend conference here last night. The deal is said not to involve Rogers Hornsby, the Cardinals star. A shift for Hornsby appeared doubtful, particu- larly as he announced in St. Louis last night that he would carry out the orders of his club although his dif- ferences with the management are as acute as ever.
 Vice president Emil Fuchs of the Braves himself deprecated the possi- bility of obtaining Hornsby, saying his club hadn't the material to trade satisfactorily to Branch Rickey the Cardinal manager. The Braves, how ever. may part with one of their catchers, particularly Earl Smith in exchange for a pitcher, possibly big Jeff Pfeffer. At least both names were mentioned in the weekend discus sion.
 The Braves, Mir. Fuchs said, have been negotiating with Pittsburgh, to obtain the services of Rabbit Maran- vile, shortstop formerly with Boston.

Ph!IadcIphia's Second is-Hour Glean- up Results in Apprehension of About One Thousand.

LET THIS END IT
The Crescents Present Their Side of the Ranger Controyersy-Tbat's All There is, There Isn't Any More.

The sports editor has received the following from the Crescents A. c.
 Dear sir.
 | We, the Crescents A. C., wish to clear up the case of the referee who handled the Ranger-Crescent game. The referee is man who has charge of the physical education department of the Boys Club. He is there to give equal service to all teams, and the Crescents, as the Rangers state, is not his team. Every team of the club is under his supervision, and he has charge of no one team.
 The referee, who has handled games in the club for the last five years, an- nounces that when the Rangers walk ed off the floor he announced to the crowd that the game was forfeited, 20, and thinks that the Rangers as- sistsnt manager has done him an ln- justice. The Crescents put the score 1895 in the paper to show the local fandom what a Boys Club team can do against the City Beaguers.
 When the Rangers left the floor the referee asked ihe Ranger manager if he had ordered his team to leave the floor. He replied that he had said nothing and that he was powerless to keep the team from leaving the floor. He said that he would order his boys to play a return game with the Cres- cents in the near future.
 Hoping that the above has put the referee in right,
 We remain,
 Yours in sports,
 CRESCENT A. C.
 P. s.--This is the first year the Rangers have attempted to play bas- ketball. Many of the members are ig- norant of the rules. and should look them up before attempting 10 explain to the referee where his weak points were.

HOT STOVE LEAGUE
Statement That Horrsby Is Going South With Cardinals Ends Their FayOrite Topic.

St. Louis, Jan. 21.-The hot stove league has lost one of its favorite subjects, sale or trade of Rogers Hornsby. leading batter of the Ma tional league, by the St. Louis club. Rogers himself halted the trade talk last night with the statement that he would be with the Cardinals this year and that he would strive to the ut most to play the game to tho best of his ability.
 ''I owe that to the fans, my fellow players and my contract" he explain ed, adding that it was the contract and mot any settlement of his diff ferences with club officials that led to his decision.
 He says the breach between presi- dent Breadon and Manager Hickey of the Cardinals and himself is just as wide as when he was suspended last September after reports of fight be- tween him and Hickey.
 Hornsby said that he would train with the club at Bradentown, Fla, al though two months ago he said he would play with the club, but would not report for spring training.

In general it is the warm" or ''ad-

dull brown and dark green, are the

cannot satisfy any craving you have
for bright colors. But let them ap-

you wear infrequently.
Again, the color considerations of

that, since light clothing appears

unwarranted expense, as it entails con-

My Neighbor Says:

No matter how carefully the
houSekeeper plans her daily,
weekly and semi-annual house
cleaning, it cannot be done easily
without suitable cleaning tools
and materials. If they are kept
together in one place, time,
bother and nervous energy are
saved. If they are given good
care, money is saved.
The ideal arrangement is to
have a complete set stored in
orderly fashion in a convenient,
well ventilated closet. Whether
a few or many kinds are need
ed. it is economical to buy we'll
made, durable tools and keep
them in good condition and
grouped together. If possible
it is well to have on each floor
a supply of some of the things
most constantly used.
Do you ever in making sugar
cookies, take the rolled-out
dough, spread one-half with
peanut butter or jelly, then
turn the other half over and
shape it nicely, then bake as
usual, and when it is done cut
it in squares. Try it. The best

all ready made at prices that do not
demand very large dress allowance.
Meanwhile the exclusive French
and American dressmakers have not
given up the idea. Doucet in her
recent showing in Paris made much
of an ensemble consisting of skirt,
long coat and long tunic blouse.
The sketch shows an ensemble of
American origin that makes use of
the long tunic. 1t is of Chinese blue
georgette, and is worn over a black
satin skirt, which really consists of
a black satin skirt mounted on thin
lining hanging from the shoulders.
The coat is of black satin trimmed
with fur, lined with blue to match
the tunic.
The coat here comes to the bottom
of the skirt, and the tendency is to
a lengthening of coats and shorten
ing of skirts. Molyneux in his new
ensembles makes his coats of three
quarter length. Many new ones are
in seven-eighth length and occasion
ally they are like the one shown in
the sketch, just as long as the skirt
or frock worn beneath.
