Weaver Team of Hartford Proves to Be Better Quintet Than Hardware City Quintet

A group of inexperienced but hard fighting underdogs made their way up to Hartford last Saturday night to try their luck against the fast travelling Weaver High school team of that place. The smoother work ing Capital City team proved to be the better quintet. and the underdogs which were this years N. B. H. s. representatives on the basketball court were defeated by 17 to II score.
 The Red and Gold men were there all the time, being in a position to win until the final minutes of the game. Then with the score tied Captain Roger Scully was sent out of the game on personal fouls. HaV- lick was sent into the gamo In hls place. The latter made his presence known by fouling Goldfarb who sunk two one pointers breaking the tic score. From then on Weaver held the upper hand.
 The Hardware City team showed much in defeat. With a little more experience it should have better season than was anticipated. Zales- l;ic the new forward was the SCOT ing king for the New Britain team' scoring of the II points registered by the quintet.

 SATURDAY LEAGUE
Pioneers NOSed Out for Victory
 by Margin Of One Point

The Pioneers and the Tutcos, tied for first in the "Y' Saturday after moon basketball league. put up q stirring fight for the lead last Sat urday afternoon with the Tutcos squeezing out victory by one point. The whistle had no more than sounded when both teams tore right in and kept things humming for fifteen minutes with neither team having much advantage. King Tut" manouvered his warriors In able fashion, getting the jump in center and working his 1-2-3 pass system to perfection for needed points.
 The Pioneers not daunted in the least manner by the Tutcos' reputa- ton, were in there all the time, squeezing in points enough to keep the game on even terms The first half ended with the score 10 to 9 in the Tutcos' favor
 Starting the second half King Tut finding the going tough, changed his lineup a little, putting 1 in Floden and Prcsser at forward where Preisser living up 10 his repu- tation sank two beautiful shots from the center Of the floor. Little Phil Walthers replaced Krammer at for ward for the Pioneers and very shortly accounted for two field goals | that hrnnpht thn nt ul again. With the gamo standing at IT all and three minutes to go. Tuttles sank shot from the free throw line putting the Tutcos one to the good.
 Floden and Preissor tied in sink ing field goals for the Tutcos, each caelng three. Feldman and J. Luke put up great game as guards for the Tutcos. Sake and Hallin play ing guards for the Pioneers broke up all of the offensive signal and systematic pass work which kept the score down and gave the Pioneers an opportunity to stay in the running.
 MorreIl and Walthers shared the honors in field goal throwing each hitting the rim twice. Sc close was the guarding by each team that forwards had very little oppor- tunity to score near the basket Most of the points were made by long heayes from the center of the floor.

COLUMBIA EXPLAINS PART IN ROCKNE CASE
Tells of Papers Signed, Hf-., And Also Announces Investigation
 Is Ordered.

Chairman James R, Knapp of the Columbia football committee, a well known lawyer. was the man who conducted the negotiations with Rockno and he met the Notre Dame coach when he arrived here. There was q hotel conference in which RocFne cndcavored to assist the Columbia official in the preparation of a statement to the press which would clarify tho Situation. While he discussed the proposed an nounCemcnt, Rockne was informed over the telephone that Columbia already had issued a statement to the effect that his selection had been withdrawn.
 The Columbia committee on ath- lctiCs has ordered a full investiga- tion of matters which led 10 the announcement Friday night that Rockno had been engaged. A let ter written by Rockne to Knapp on December [, in which Rocknc claims 10 have ended negotiations through ! the statement that he could not ob- tain his release from Notre Dame, is expected to feature tho inquiry. Columbia has an agreement of some sort signed by Rockne but it has not been made public. The Notre Dame coach declares he did not sign anything that would have been valid without the release from the Indiana institution.
 As Rockne left for the west last night he told how the country boy" had escaped from the "city slicker."
 q hope my job is waiting for me | when I get back" he added. Now that I have talked myself out In the east my next job will be to go be. fore the Notre Dame officials anG doubtless do a lot more explaining But l guess everything will be al right and I hope to continue coach ing at South Bend. But I am only an employee and if my superior' say I'm not wanted I guess it vii be up to me to look elsewhere
 Joseph M. Bryne, eastern repre- sentative of Notre Dame, said there was nothing for the coach to worry about ns the situation already hat been explained to the president o the university, Rev. Father MattheN Walsh. and had been described b! him as regrettablo.
 Columbia, meanwhile, is withou a football coach, for it Is under stood that Charles Crowley, wht handled the squad this season, vii not consider reappointment.
