 As q whole the New Britain team played a good game. They showed good ability on the defense and shot with skill on the oftense. One phase Of their game that requires special mention is their clean handling of the ball. Although it was a one sided game the excellent playing of the New Britain team kept up interest.
 Ncipp Is star
 The individual star for the Red and Gold team was Captain butch Neipp who gave as finished an exhibition of basketball playing as could be asked for. He was the main cog on the of fcnsive and defensive combinations of the team. His man outiumped him only once during the game. Besides holding his man scoretess, he &C., counted for 1% Of his teams points.
 All the other members of the team played well. The forwards worked together like clock. BeIoin played his best gam" of tho season. His floor work as well as his shooting made him one ot the leading performers of the afternoon. Belser at the other forward position deserves credit for his all around playing. His offensive work was of the usual high order.
 The guards, by holding the St. Thomas team to three field goals de- serve mention. Tchrer accomplished a feat by holding Jackie" Walsh tn a lone field goal. He was able only to score after Zehrcr had been taken out Of the game.
