Saturday was bad day all around for New Britain basketball teams for starting with the High school In the afternoon, both the Guards and tho Legion quintet wero beaten by their opponents.
 The High school game was a com plote upset. Everyone thought that tho locals would win by a big mar. gln. but the team from what used Co be the homo of good basketball players, showed that the "bowling alley" as such tho local gymnasium is termed. was no handicap to them.
 The New Britain team seemed tied at every turn during the game and the small score rolled up by them Is indicative of the manner in which the South Manchester team found them.
 There can be no question but that the Guards met better team in tho Atlas Ave of New Haven. The first half was an "eVen Steven" affair with the score standing Is to Il in favor of the New Haven team. but inc second half saw the New Hayen- CTS tear away from the locals. Gu bersky and Pite arc the two who were more responsible for the Atlas victory than anything else. Gubor- sky has the knack of dropping them in from any anglo and from any dis tance on the floor.
 So good was the defense of th' Elm City five in the second half tha the locals were unable to take a sho even from the middle of the floor At the same time. the Atlas player were slipping through the local de fense and scoring time and tim again.
 The baskets that New Britain go were really earned, but enough o them were not made 10 offset th play of tho Atlas team. Without doubt, the Atlas crew Is the bes that has shown on the armory foo this season and they are certainl the favorites in New Britain to wi the state title.
 The pixies of Hartford play th New Haven team on the Elm Cit floor tonight in the third contest bt tween these two. This should be humdinger for action and should r sult, In q sweet basketball game. Tho AmericaDs Legion team was case of youngsters, light and fa' playing against veterans who ou weighed them too much for comfol The Legion play was fine all the "; through. but the circus shots pull'

lean fighters to shoot at.
 He will be under the wing of Vincent Reina, well known sports promoter and fight manager during his stay in this country. Reina, who accompanied Johnny Dundee, former featherweight champion of the world, in his exhibition tour of Europe in 1925, was successful in having the Italian sensation con- sent to come to this country after Dundee and others had failed.
 Reina is well known throughout this country as promoter and manager. He has, promoted fistic engagements in New York, Newark. Kansas City, San Francisco and Montreal. He is best known to Connecticut fight fans for his work while in New Haven. He spent 10 years in the Elm City promoting fights, chief among which was the Jackson-Dundee 15 round bout a few years ago. This drew the big gest house of any fight with the ex- ception of championship bout in the history of Connecticut.
 Bosisio has been fighting since he was Is years old and has not yet lost a decision. He met Hobin, Belgian, who held the welterweight championship of Europe, two months before he won the title and at that time, although sports writ CTS gave him the decision, the bout was called dTaw.
 He .has been showing to packed houses wherever he goes in Europe and is probably the most popular fighter Italy has known in years. He was honored by King Victor Emanuel after winning the welter- weight title by having conferred on him the title of cavalier.
 Promoter Reina, who Is making his home in this city, has arrange ments all complete for Bos!sio's hrst appearance in this country at Madi- son Square Garden the latter part of January. His opponent Will be selected from among the many con- tenders for the welterweight crown and this will mark the start of his drive for the worlds title.
 Bosisio had such success In Italy in making money and getting matches that he did not care to leave before the present time. He is coming to America now in quest of new worlds to conquer because he has proved beyond a doubt that he is the best that Europe can of

TEAMS 7o CLASH
 FOR SECOND TIME
PaWnees and East Sides to Con- tinue Series at East End Field

The East Sides and Pawnee foot ball teams will meet in the second game of their three game series for the semi-pro championship of the city, tomorrow afternoon at the East Side field on East street. Both teams are steamed up for the fray and gruelling battle is anticipated by the followers in both camps.
 The East Sides won the first game and the followers of the team con- fidently expect the eleven to repeat again tomorrow. The Pawnees are going into the battle in a desperate frame of mind and they will work hard to stop the eleven which con- quered them last Sunday.
 The site of the game has been changed from Willow Brook park to the East Sides field. At first it was planned to play the game at the South end park because All-New Britain was scheduled 10 go to Brooklyn. The change in the plans of the senior team, necessitated that the junior contest be shifted back to the scene of the battle between the two last Sunday. The manage ments at first planned to play pre- liminary game, but satisfactory ar. engagements could not be made.
 The East Sides have practiced all this week for the game. "Vic' Lar son who has been coaching the out fit, has put the players through a series of hard workouts that should bring them into the best shape pos sible for hard fight.
 The record of the East Sides this year shows one game lost. one game won and two tied. The team lost to All Middletown by GO score but it went back again 10 play a no-score tie. Another no-score contest was battled out with the Bristol West Ends while the one victory of the season was over the Pawnees. Games scheduled with the Meriden Falcons, All-Rockviles and Buffa- loes of Meriden, were called off on account of rain.
 A record crowd is expected out to watch the game tomorrow because the teams are bitter rivals and the East Sides won their first game in history from the Pawnees last Sun day. Fans wishing to get to the game can take a Seymour avenue bus.
 The lineup of the East Sides for the game will be as follows: Spitko, fb; Mauro and Leonard, hb; Oster- tag, qb; Whitney, Kebble, Kieffer and Lengren, ends; Sody, Leonard and Gordon, tackles: Coons, Sody and Kebble, guards and Barta, center.

The All-NeW Britain football team will have the Silvertown team of Springfield as its opponent Sunday afternoon at Memorial Field in this city. After securing three states in search of a game following the can- cellation of the scheduled contest in Brooklyn tomorrow, Manager Ed ward Daley succeeded in signing the team from the City of Homes.
 The Springfield team will be the same in makeup as that which beat New Britain in it's first appearance here. In that game, the All-New Britain eleven was outplayed and out-generaled and came out white washed to the tune of to 0.
 Tomorrow's game with the heavy artillery of the New Britain back field the same as it was against the Sub-Base team of New London last Sunday, the story should be very different. New Britain with Collins, Thompson. Barnikow. Hunt and Sturm showing the best form of the season, swamped the New London sailors under a 33 to 0 score. This same crew will swing into action against the Springfield team tomor- row afternoon.
 The Springfield eleven will be no set-up for the locals. This outfit showed in its first game against New Britain that it has wealth of power on the offense and can stop anything coming it's way. Led by Clemens, former Frankfor1 Yellow Jacket, the team has been going at rapid pace all this season.
 Confidence reigns in the camp that the Massachusetts team will make 1t two in row, but New Britain Is fortified by good practice sessions and after last Sunday. will make all teams step. Because of the face that a series with the Hartford Blues is still possible and, many believe, still probable, the locals will do their utmost to score another victory by a one-sided score. This will not only atone for the defeat earlier in the season, but will also be another req son why New Britain and Hartford should meet.
 The kickoff will take place at 2:30 o'clock

CONTRACTOR TELLS OF
AIR MAIL SERVICE.


Walter T. Varney, contractor, an
nounces that the Washington, RECON,
Idaho Air Mail Service will launch
its first ship on the morning OF April
6, from EIKo, Nevada to fasco and
give daily mail service thereafter. The
equipment of the new air mail SER
vice consists of six planes, a crew of
four pilots and three mechanics. The
ine connects directly with the trans
continental route at EllSo and brings
every city and town in the Northwest
e5 hours or four full days nearer the
East. Letters posted in the afternoon
Of one day will arrive in Chicago or
New York two days later, remark
able saving in time over the mail
trains.
Fer two years the trancontinental
air mail service has been in operation
giving dependable daily service. An
average OF 200 pounds of mail day
is carried over the transcontinental
air mail between San Francisco and
: New York. More than 100000
pounds Of mail has been transported
ever 100000 miles since the begin
ming Of air mail service.
The safety and speed of air mail
transportation has been thoroughly
tested and proven. The air mail
is today, according to authorities on
that service, the most efficient and
dependable transcontinenta1 mail SER
vice. For the past year the air mail
has maintained its schedule to such
a degree of efficiency that even the
most skeptical has had to admit de.
feat. The time is not far away when
all first class mail will be carried by
air. 1t is inevitable, with speed in
commerce the crying need Of the ma
ton, that business will be carried on
Trough the air. The record of the
growth Of the transcontinental air
mail is proof of this fact.
A net work of air mail lines spread
all over the United States will soon
be in operation. The Washington,
Oregon and Idaho air NAL line from
Elko to Pasco will be the first of
the new lines to open up. At about
the same time, air mail routes will
start from San Francisco to Los
Angeles, Seattle to Los Angeles, Chi
cago to St. Louis, New York to Bos-
ton, Chicago to St. Paul and Cheyenne
to Pueblo. A little later lines will
be started from Chicago to New Or
leans and from Chicago to Birming-
ham, covering practically every cor
nsr of the United States.
Ten cents an ounce is the postage
required to send an air mail letter to
the Salt Lake zone, 20 cents to the
Chicago zone, and rs ,cents to the
New York zone. Air mail stamps
and special red, white and blue air
mail envelopes can be obtained in the
pcstoffice. Letters can, however, be
mailed in an ordinary envelope. The
rostoffice department urges that all
mail intended to be carried by air
plane be plainly marked in the space
Immediately below the stamps and
above the address via air mail"
