MATS TAKING ON
 LYRICS TONIGHT
Have Chance to Even Inter-
 City Series

A basketball battle royal at the state armory is assured tonight when the Lyrics of Hartford come down here determined to take the decid- ing game in the five game series with the Mats and the local boys take the floor equally determined to even up the match and make a fifth game necessary. To date the Lyrics have copped two from the Mats, while the Guardsmen have won one, that one having been taken right here on the home floor. Tonight they expect to repeat.
 The Mats will use their regular lineup, with the chances favoring both Reynolds and LaHar stepping along beside Mert Taylor. If the blonde youth from New Haven can hit the same clip he set in Hartford Thursday night he will give the fans a real old time thrill, for he was looping them in from all angles. If Taylor is going good again, and LaHar and Reynolds are sufficiently rested to be at their best, the Lyrics will have to watch out. "Teders' kilduff, who may be given another shot at forward, but who is proving himself a dangerous man with the ball whether at guard or forward, also will be factor in the game. Restelli, and Sheehan both pro- nounce themselves as feeling fit and this means that the enemy will have a tough combination to overcome.
 Gordon, Pite and Malcolm will carry the offense for the visitors and Sammy Pite is the boy the Mats must watch for 1t was this same Samuel who sent them down to de- feat with his remarkable exhibition of stamina in the last half of Thurs day night.
 The Preliminary Game
 Tn the preliminary the National Guards Reserves will tackle a tough team in the form of the Britol Key stone A. C." In the lineup of the visitors are found Lugg and J. Bran nick. members of the Company l.. team which recently won the Bristol city championship by defeating the West Ends. Poltis. High school star who began the season with the Re serves will rejoin the team.

Fans Good Win

The thrill of being made man- ager meant nothing when compared to those messages from the players. Right away I felt as if 80 DOT cent of my troubles had been erased Ii made ne feel that the players were with me to a man. That means something to a manager"
 While the baseball fans of the country have made no manifestation of their feelings, Collins will have their good will as well as the players.
 Like Walter Johnson, Collins is one player who has endeared him self to the public. He is the gentle man off the field, the sportsman on

 Collins absolutely refuses to turn prophet. His only future booking is that the Chicago White Sox will not finish last.
 "I am convinced that the fans are not interested in winning tue pen nant in March," says Eddie. They judge you on where you finish in October.
 Doesn't Expect Pemant
 "Candidly, I don't expect my team to win the pennant We may not be in the first division and then again We might. We won't finish last
 T am going 10 impress on the boys that I want them to go the limit to win each game. Then, when it's over, whether it's won or lost, forget it and go after the next one.
 Ball games and pennants are won by making runs, not through the medium of conversation. We are going to concentrate on each hall game and Jet the others tage care of themselves. It is the team that wins the most games and loses the least that goes over the wire a winner.
 T am proud to he at the head of the Chicago White Sox. It is com posed of 8 great bunch of fellows, I know. I have been one of them for years, am still one.
 T know they are all for me. I know they are going to give mo their best. When we are beaten it will be because the other club has played better ball.

 'There was a certain thrill whor was named manager of the White Sox but it in no way compared tc my emotions the rest of that day.
