Years ago, this city was represent
ed by a girls team in the basketball
world which took everything in the
state into amp and when an all
state team was formed, several Of
the New Britain girls were picked.
This combination travelled all over
playing basketball in various cities
In and out of the state.
Girls and women in general are
turning to sports more than even
these days. Tennis has its Helen
Wills and other stars; the swimming
contests are replete with women en-
tries: girls have baseball teams in
the play grounds; women shine on
the bowling alleys. and in every
branch of sport except basketball,
the women and girls of this city are
active. There is no special reason
why a girls team could not be
formed here right now and many
would like TO see some entcrprisinG
manager take the matter under con-
sideration.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 8.-(Spe-

third annual mid-year meeting Of the
western division of the Chamber Of
Commerce of the United States to be
held in Seattle, December z and 8,
are now well under way, according to
a statement given out here today by
Paul Clagstone, western divisional
manager.
Increased interest on the part Of
western business generally is being
evidenced, it is said, in connection
with this meeting in view Of the
marked accomplishments of the meet
ings of 1924. These gatherings
have afforded western business and
agriculture an exceptional opportunity
for collective expression of opinion
on vital economic issues Of the day.
Agricultural Conferences
At the last mid-year conference
held in Los Angeles, resolutions were
adopted urging the national chamber
to arrange agricultural conferences in
various parts Of the United States be-
tween representatives Of chambers Of
commerce and agricultural groups.
Acting on this suggestion the United
States Chamber of Commerce held the
first of these meetings recently at
Kansas City with representatives OF
shipping, agriculture and industry OF
eight middle western states in at
tendance. Following this a similar
conference for the Pacific Northwest
was held at Portland, Oregon. Vari-
Gus plans were considered and a con-
struetive program adopted that has

member Of the Ringing family Of
circus fame, must pay Hans Biering
and NJ. S. Cunningham $322,4S0 in
damages, according to a decision on
an appeal recently handed down by
the state supreme court.
The action was brought by Biering
and Cunningham to recover $546, 900,
the value Of property held by the Tay-
lor's Fork Cattle company, but Of
which the plaintiffs claimed ownership
as partners. The trial was had in the
district court Of Gallatin county with
Judge Ben B. Law presiding and re-
suited in a judgment Of $322,48O fol-
Biering and Cunningham.
Ringing appealed to the supreme
court. He argued that the Southern
Montana Livestock company was or
ganized to permit him to relieve the
TaylOr's Fork Cattle company from
financial difficulties. The plaintiffs
asserted that Ringing had not only
failed to live up to his agreement
with them, but had looted the South.
