NATIONAL GUARDS MEET TOUCH TEAM
Sam Pite's Collegians Making
 Strong Bid for State Title

The National Guard basketball team will meet at the state armory on Arch street Saturday night Il team that Is regarded in many quarters in the state as the logical team to win the state basketball championship this season. Sam Pite. one of the most brilliant court representatives Yale univer- sity has ever had, will lead his Collegians into battle determined to chalk up a win while he Guards will be on their toes in the game. more so, if possible, than they were when they stacked up against the Bristol Endees in two games.
 Pite has gathered together an array of all stars that has toppled some of the best teams in the state. Each man in himself, is an expert at both floor work and shooting. Wendell, who will occupy one of the forward berths, former ! ly played with Cornell and all though he was decisively subdued in the Meriden Insilco game. he is one of the best scorers in state basketball circles, With him will be ! Rubenstein. formerly of the Uni versity of Syracuse. Ruby" is classed as one of the best men in | Connecticut on a basketball floor. He is q flash in all departments and at one time belonged to well known professional outfit in New York state. He will be threat at every turn of the game.
 Pite will be at center and noth- { ing more is necessary than to call the attention of the fans to the showings the former Yale star made | in this city on many previous oc- oasions. His work with the Atlas five of New Haven made that team l known throughout the entire east ern section of the country and whoever is sent in against him 1 Saturday night will have his hands full keeping him away from the 1 basket.
 The guard positions will be taken care of by Mellinecker and Gitlitz. Mellnecker was formerly a star on | the Syracuse teams and Gitlitz on Yale university. These men are be- { ing counted on to keep the New Britain forwards scoreless during the night.
 The Guards are putting in some stiff practice sessions this week as the team starting Saturday night enters upon the hardest schedule New Britain team has had in years. The Burritts will stage a prelimi- nary game against a team to be | picked today.

Tonight at the Y. NJ. (. A. gym rasium, the P. & r. Corbin basket ball quintet, leading outfit in the h. dustrial Basketball league, will take up the defense of its laurels so far won, against the Corbin Screw five, runners-up for the top position.
 Because of the intense rivalry that has grown between the two, tho con- test tonight will be battle that will be bitterly fought from all angles. Judging from the form dis played by both teams, neither will have any great advantage with the exception of possibly of relative size. The r. S2 F.seam is bigger in stature than the Corbin Screw five. but this may prove to be handicap rather than an advantage.
 The Corbin Screw team, after dropping one game to the Russwins, came through the remainder of the schedule with flying colors. Wheth- CT Its winning streak will be broken tonight, remains to be seen. The r. X F. Corbin outfit hasn't lost a game yet and easily stands supreme in the first place. IL has, with the lo-s of two guards. Arburr and Paris. conquered all of it's opponents in hard fought games and the mem- bers of the team are confident that tonight will mean another victory on c already clean slate.
 So not has the argument over the i, Dcctivc merits of the teams be- .cc--". t;lat several bets have been recorded as having been placed on th outcome of the meeting. So in- tense has the rivalry between the two teams bearing, in part. the same name. become, that those who plan to attend the games tonight, want 10 fight if anyone casts any doubts on their respective teams ability to win.
 The supporting garSe of the night will bc played between tho FueseU < Erwin five and the New Britain Machine Co. team. This should be a good contest with the Russwins be- ing given wide edge 10 win. Tie first game Of the evening which ovnrshadows all others played this season, will hc started promptly at s o'clock and the second will fol- low imm mcdiately after it. Dick Dil- lon will referee.

HIGH TEAM BEATS WEAVER QUINTET
Both Teams Play a Poor Brand Of Basketball During Contest

Continuing it's victory march which the football team started last fall. the New Britain High school basketball team defeated Weaver High, the second Hartford quintet on the schedule by a IS to 9 score yesterday.
 The New Britain squad never looked poorer than 1t did in the game. It missed enough shots to win three games. Weaver High also looked bad in it's aIl-around play.
 It was late in the third quarter before the Red and Gold team could score q field goal. New Britain went through the first half without mak- ing single double counter. The score at half time was 10 4. At the end of the third quarter the score was 8 to but then the Red and Gold team startedsto work and until a few minutes before the finish it had increased it's score to 16 while Weaver was held to seven points.
 Havlick and Sowka were New Britain's best bets. Captain Marion Zaleski who usually Hips them in with monotonous regularity failed to make either a field or a foul goal.
 New Britain's score in the first quarter consisted of two foul goals by McGrath. Kiiray of Weaver even cd the score with field goal.
 In the second period Havlick and Sowka each scored q foul goal and Bialcck scored two for Weaver to keep the score even at all. Havlick Tipped in the first field goal in the second half. Garber made the score 6 to on a foul shot. Bromborg made a fout goal and Baron made T field goal as the third period end ed.
 Practically the only basketball played during the entire game was in the last period. Sowka cagcd foul. and McGrath made the score II to on a field goal. Two field goals by HayIick and free try by Sowka brought 10. New Britain its final score. Is. CrcfiCc scored Wcaver's third field goal in the last two minutes of play

Coroner in London Hits
Psycho-Analysts Hard
Blow in Verdict.
By ROBERT ]. PREV

Universal Service STAFF Correspondent.
LONDON, Jan. 23-Psychoanalysis
received n hard blow at a London in
quest when it was announced as the
opinion of coroner that psychoanaly-
sis was dangerous weapon, calculated
to lead patients to suicide.
A promising young lawyer took his
life following treatment by one of the
leading practitioners because the re-
suit was to make him completely dis
gusted with himself.
Other psychoanalysts in the fash
ionable part of London admitted the
danger was real. Some practitioners,
they explained, based their treatment
solely on the theories of Freud and
Yung who made the sex principle cause
subconscious disorders.
The more advanced practitioners dis
courage their patients from talking of
love affairs and seek other causes for
depression. Medical ethics here for
bids doctors talking on the subject
for publication, but one of the most
eminent physicians declared that psy-
choanalysis can only cure patients
suffering from love obsessions by d.
verting their interest TO matter of fact
affairs of life.
"Feudism is chiefly sexism," he
said, land on certain types of mind
its practice is bound to lead to evil
results"
