The score was 1 to $. Only q game with the Hartford High school seconds and the St. Thomass Midget team remain on the schedule before it rings down the curtain for the season.
 The team had no trouble in taking the South Manchester crew into camp. Jimmy Scully at center and ZAP Havlick at forward were the stars of the game. accounting for Ii or the l6 points scored by the team. The latter played nice floor game. Farr was the best man on the South Manchester team, scoring half of that teams eight points.
 Freddie Zehrer was appointed captain of the team for the rest of the season to succeed "Hammy" DarroW who was promoted to the varsity team few weeks ago. The Red and Gold lineup was as follows: -Scully, center; Havlicl1, Diner and Clair. forwards; Zehrer and Brom- berg, guards.

The home team rallied in the second period and passed plalnville again. only to have Miller crash through 10 'Aake if 1l-lo, Plainvile. as the half closed.
 The third period saw the teams alternating in staging brilliant seri as of passes and shots, but the visitors kept ahead and tho last period opened with New Britain trailing at 22.1o. Wonderful long shots by Miller and some dashing follow-ups by Martin gave Plainville the advan- tage at a8-o3 with two and q hait minutes left. New Britain rallied, Mercy and Bell dropping in goal apiece, but with the ball always in their territory and with the crowd frantically jumping up and down the sidelincs, Plainville staved off the danger in frenzied final minute and kept Its one point lead. The r'c- tory practically assures the winners Of the county league title, as no other team appears 10 have the stu!f to beat them.
 Freddy Miller gave magnificent exhibition of shooting, ilippinS lightning shots from mid.foor and getting off one handed losses when blocked; he scored seven field goals. all spectacular ones from the very center of the struggling players Doug Martin also had a good night, especially in following np his mates shots. while smith, Schwab and Bergen went well.

Manager Bill Mckechnie of the Pittsburgh Pirates has the hardest job of any man in the majors for 1926.
 Piloting the Prates, McKechnie won q pennant and q world seres last season. This year he has nothing to shoot, at except repeat if he is to retain his new-Won prestige,
 The Pittsburgh club is admittedly the best club in the National league. It is dopod to win by all the OK perts, Failure to deliver would make 1t seem that Mckachnic didn't get the best from his club.
 During the world series the judg- ment of Mckechnie was several times taken to task. It was rumored that he and Fred Clarke, his assistant. nearly came to blows as the result of difference Of opinion.
 There are some experts who insist that Clarke is the guiding head of the Pirates, that until his arrival McKcchnio failed with clubs that should have won.
 The season of 1926 is certain to be the acid test for the leader of the Pirates from any number of angles.

Nice Feb. 22 tPl--Suzanne LenF- len has brought sadness to the hearts of tho tennis devotees along the Ri- viera-and probably also 10 Helen Wills--through announcement that she will not participate in any fur ther singles matches until the St. Cloud or Wimbledon tournaments. She has definitely cancelled her en- try for the Nice singles beginning March I.
 The French girl said that her phy- sician had informed her that if she continued to participate ill the Ri vicra contests she would go stale by June. She added that she would seek a quiet retreat in the noun tains immediately and continue the period of rest. which she has been taking, except for a match in the women's doubles at Deauieu Satur- day. since her strenuous match with Miss Wills at Cannes.

I will he pleased 10 face her mdp, circumstances more ap- propriatc for tennts than those un- der which our match on Tuesday las vas played, Miss Wills will hove two other chances 10 meet me within six months.

Final Standing.

The First Lutheran quintet main. tainod its undefoated supremacy in the final games of tho 1nter-Church league Saturday night at the '. M. C. A. by downing their closest rival, the South church. 3O-25. Win or lose tho Swedes were certain of the title, but both teams fought out q person. al rivalry which made the game in- teresting throughout. The Lutherans started the scoring. but Cooley twice matched their goals, a foul by Parker gave the South church an advantage and the Congregational ists moved up into q l5-11 lead. The Swcdcs took time out and came back to tie the score and grab q 1T-l5 margin at the half. The play was very fast throughout the whole ses- sion.
 Tho South church went to pieces in the second period, the winners snatching the lead which gave them the game. With count score 30-21 against them and about q minute to ulay, the losers rallied and made two baskets in rapid order, but tho gong ended the rush.
 "Acky" Floden was the big noise of the game. sneaking through the losers defense and scoring seven baskets. Flodcn had been having bad nights in the league before. but his luck had changed Saturday and he dropped them in from over his head or any position he cared to shoot from. "Bony' Erickson went well in the first half. Cooley excel led for the South church. The team had tough luck with its shots in the second half and this seemed 10 break its spirit. The summary:
