New Britain herald., 1926-03-04

V was an Indian charm around tho West basket last night.
 Paul LaHar. in his first full game Of the season. earned the right 10 occupy a regular berth. His play last night matched anything seen on the local floor either by the local team or any visiting combination. Time after time LaHar got away from his little gluo pot Tommy" Tracy for scores and he was in on the pass work all night.
 1t was a tough game to lose, but 1t would have also been a tough one for Bristol to have dropped. Now that the Endec team is pointing straight for the state championship with nothing but the Atlas team of New Haven in its path. most of tho New Britain fans will be roofing for the Bearing Makers to come through with a win In the play-off
 A suggestion was made last night that Manager Joe Carroll of the Bristol team should be interested in. Some of the fans stated that the state armory in New Britain would be good place for the Atlas and Endces to play off the third game of their series. This would give the two teams q neutral floor on which 10 play the game and without doubt, the state nrmory would be damned with fans eager to see the game.
 An argument cropped up last night during tho game which most of the fans don't know anything about. Keeping score at the side lines, We heard Tommy Tracy of the Bristol team call for time out. Then KilduT reported that he was going into the game. This made the third time he had gone in. T'eldman called Referee Waters attention 10 the fact and the referee went to the timekeepers' desk to ask If Kilduif
 
 At first, we were hay as 10 what the argument was about. The Brs- tol score keeper explained that Kill duff had gone into the game an eX- tra time. thereby committing tech nical foul, but we failed to hear this. We heard the referee say it was an other foul on New Britain and were of the opinion that he was calling a technical violation for q time out when in reality it was Bristol that had called time.
 Then again. we thought that play would have to be resumed before the technical foul was to be called. We called the referees attention to tn fact that he were holding the off cial book and he came and explained that the foul was not being called for a lime out but because Kilduff had gone into the game again.
 After the game, 10 get the matter entirely straight, We asked the referee if play shouldn't have been resumed before the foul was called, hut he explained that just as soon as kilduff reported to him, he became a player and was in the game. Therefore, tho foul was called. We finally got everything straightencd out, and there was no wrong deCis- ion. The referee picked up inc mgs because he had won
 Inc Guards and the Endccs meet again Friday night in Bristol and this will be q good opportunity for the local team to even up the score. The Endocs are exceptionally strong on their home floor but New Britain might get better breaks 10 win. A large number of fans are planning to take in the game.
 "Mort" Taylor has been bothered with u bad cold and this has given him the appcnranco Of having gone a bit stale, With Bclscr sitting on the sidclncs, 1t seems as if Taylor could bc given 6 rest until he got into condition again. His work last night was of the highest order, but it wasn't like he has been in other games this year. \ rest would do him the world of good.
 Bclscr got into the game for only q short time last night. but the fans wanted tO ste him in action. We figure that nn might have gone good had he been put in in the second half and allowed to play the entire frame. He and I.allar work per fec'ly together.
 Tho South church will endeavor 10 get tacll into aI'ion tonight after q lengthy I2!,on. Arrangements have been nl"" WAY 10 secure tho senior team from PlainItnc as opponents for lhc locals, and if this plan falls through Inc management expects to obtain anothe" opponent in tho Emeralds. The South Church Re serves will take on :he Comets in the preliminary.
