MYSTERIOUSLY DEAD
Middle Aged Couple Found Among Their Christmas Gifts In Apart mcnt in Hollywood.

Hollywood, Calf, Dec. 3Q.--The bodies of MT. and Mrs. Milton Hol- iy, said to have been well-to-do for mer residents of New York, were found in their bungalow court apart ment here last night lying in the midst of Christmas decorations and the presents, the cause of their deaths a mystery.
 They apparently had been dead since Christmas night, when they last were seen by Theodore Coyel, wbo told police he vas a nephew Of Holly, and that his uncle's only other relatives were two nicces in New York.
 Covcl secuted the theory that l1ol- ly and his wife had ended their lives with poison. Though a cursory examination indicated they might have died of poison. Police said gas could not have killed them, since fire was burning in the gas srate when the bodies were found, and the ventilation seemed satisfactory.
 Investigators differed in their theories as to how the middle-adged pair died. but agreed that until an autopsy could be performed the af- fair would remain a mystery.

BOYS CLUB WINS
 AMID MISSED FOULS
Defeats Crescent Reserves, But Second Team Loses to Liberties

The Boys club first team came back to life last night and won a close and evenly played game from the Crescent Reserves Of South Man. chester. 2s to 22. The game vas fast and kceniy contested, but there waA little of the spectacular element in it, few long shots being made dur Ing the whole course of the encoun- ter, Both teams uncovered fine pass Ing and worked the ball up under the basket, from where the shots were made, so that there was little need of taking chances from mid. court
 The locale presented q changed lineup, Captain Mike "stockIngless" Luke returned to his position at cen- ter, which he held down last year. KereleJza was sent in at forward in his place, and Nlbby Nyborg moved up from guard to take care Of the other forward position, Gotowala stepping in in his place.
 The new arrangement went well as far as passing, guarding, and shooting from the floor, but a change of positions could not improve the locals foul shooting which was even poorer than 1t has been in the past couple of games The club shooters failed to tally single point from the free-throw mark, despite many at- tempts.
 Luke starred. with eight from the floor, while his opponent, Madden, and Left Guard Kerr, led the Man chester scoring, The first half found the club leading by one point, 10 to 9, but in the second they rapidly left the Crescent Reserves in the rear. The score:

 The preliminary game furnished the real thrills of the night the Boys club Reserves being downed by the Liberty A. C. of South Man. chester. 23 to 20, after holding the lead until well into the third period. This game was chock full of what the big game lacked: long shots, throws over the head, and scrappy playing. but the Reserves were lit-
 tie better than their fellows on the big team when it came to free throws. This fault cost tho Reserves the game. Biggs missed pairs of
 tries again and again, but was the
 only local player to put one in dur ing the whole evening.
 The Liberties wore lost at the start the Reserves piltng up seven points and continuing to lead during the first half, mainly owing to clever shots by Zapatka and a pair of
 beautiful lengthy throws by Lipman and Parparian. In the third quar- ter, however, the visitors found themselves and uncorked all man. ner of fine playing, which complete ly da2zled the locals. Burke heaved
 one in from far out on the floor for a tie score, then Gaskoll cut in under the basket and tossed one over his
 head for the first time. Burke came right back with another from the farther reaches, and the Reserves
 could not out this down by more than one point Zapatka, Aronson and Lipman played well for the To-
 calls, while Gaskcll and Burke fea-
 tured for the boys from South Man chester The score.
