 The second annual anniversar, banquet md dance given by tho Ranger A. (. will tnke place at the Bungalow on Wednesday evening und club members and invited guests arc looking forward witl pleasant anticipation to this event.
 The banquet and dance year age was decided social success and there is every reason 10 believe thai this live organization again will score in Its social efforts,
 Although one of the youngest or .anizations in the city, the Rangers nave compelled recognition by theil rorceful work on the baseball field and the gridiron. They also are very active within their own ranks and maintain club rooms on Stanley street. Their bowling lcauge is biz success and their card tournaments also hold interest for the members.
 :, review of the high school game shows the boys played almost per tcctly. Belser. forward, got six lcld goals being the scoring acc His running mate. Beloin. got fouI and Neipp at center got five for the regulars. The guards confined them selves to guarding, did not score from the field but made good on most every free try.
 Zehrer played a hard game al guard. He was everywhere on the floor and trailed his man constantly He was dangerous from the free line, tossing in three out of four.
 The Rogers high team failed tc score from the floor during the first half and ono apiece by Donovan Wheeler and Chase was their limit in the last half.
 The game was pleasingly well played and very free from rough work, both teams acting the part Of gentlemen on the floor and neither resorting to any questionable tactics .. Coach Cassidy has a squad of which he may well be proud and II championship honors do not com" tlIis way it will be because some thing happens to the team person. nell
 If was bit unfortunate that the l.tsh school team did not remain on in. floor long enough to return l.ogers' cEcer of courtesy. But there >,.s no intended affront to the Nis- ilors.
 Nine personal fouls were called on the Eieh school and these not all two tries" however, were converted into five points by the Rogers High boys. It took them 1S tries to get them.
 The Rogers team had six person. als called. These were converted into three points in the eight tries
 Saturday night fans got their moneys worth of show all right in the two speedy games played,
 The work of the Atlas in the sc ond half was just as brilliant as that of the locals in the opener.
 The game, obviously, was won on s!pcrier foul shooting and by giving the opponent fewer free tries foI both the Atlas and the Mats got an equal number of field goals --- 11 apiece.
 However, 10 fouls by Atlas men gave New Britain 14 free tries Eleven of these were converted into points
 Reynolds, Taylor and Rcstelli were perfect from the free throw line. Red" got his three, Taylor made good on his five and Restelli collected his two.
 pite and cireenberg made the sin gle shots they had given them.
 Taylor certainly played Witkin off his feet in that first half.
 The Atlas boys are saying: Wait until you fellows play in New Haven We'll win that game, for you won'' have such luck as you had In the first half"
 Luck nothing! The Mats were nc more lucky in the first half thai were the Atlas In the second. Skill full playing by both teams accounted for their tallies.
 The game was absolutely fret from unnecessary roughness.
 Les Woodford did not get int the game, but he should prove | valuable asset. He is a clever floo worker and with Reynolds and La liar working with him should con tribute materially to their chances a the basket.
 It also Is likely that with this out fit he himself will be able to rim them in from the floor with nor, accuracy than he has shown in tn Dusty league. Les is good playe and good man for any team t have.
 The Mats play Company G of Man chester here next Saturday night.
 sheehan played Bailey and Pit of their feet in the first half and hi
