SCHAEFER LEADS BILLIARD CHAMP
Chicago Cue Artist Ahead in First Block Played 300 to 2l1

New York, Dec. 20 PNJaile Schacfcr of Chicago had an S9-point lead over Nelller Cochran, worlds .1S.2 bailIine billiard champion. to- day coming out of the first block of their 1,5oo- point title match with a score of 300 10 211.
 Making an unlin,~ed run of 32, Schaefer topped the defending title holder in the first skirmish before crowd of 500 at Hotel Pennsylvania last night. Tao blocks, afternoon and evening today, and two more tomorrow remain in the play,
 Starting q new quest for the crown he held several years ago, Schactor finished the first block with the ad vantage largely because the cham pion was so far off form he could not grasp opportunities offered by the mediocre billiards Jake himself displayed at times.
 Aside from the sixth and seventh innings when the challenger put to- gcthar runs of 14S and G5, Schaefer showed little of the sensational play he has demonstrated on previous occasions. Cochran was even moro off form. Time and again the cham pion had the worries lined up for what appeared to be the start of long run but in only one inning-the sixth when he counted G6-did Cochran flash the style which won for him the title at Washington a year ago.
 Schaefer's average was 9 while Cochran's was 19 2-11.

BOYS CLUB WINS ONE-S|DED GAME
BurieS East Hartford EIneralds
 Reserves Still Unbeaten

The Boys club basketball team went back onto the right road last night when it scored an easy 46-l6 win over the East Hartford Emer aids in a one-sded game which was more interesting to watch than the final count would indicate. The Iis- itors were a light team and lacked the consistency of the club, but they played the game all the way and kept their heads in spite Of the ever- increasing score being piled up against them. The locals again had Captain Gill on the sidelines and threw all their. substitutes into the game for considerable periods, but all did we'll and showed that the club has some good young material developing for future years.
 Benjamin popped a foul goal for the first point and C. Nagle tied the score with a similar shot. After two minutes and 30 seconds Grusha sank | the initial field basket. Balf tied things again. but Goffa put New Britain ahead and kley started his usual battering attack with a pair of floor goals. The score was 13-4 at the quarter. The second period was slow. Grusha making the only field goal of the entire ten minutes, which closed with the score 16-6.
 Silva replaced Benjamin in the second half, which was opened by a dash of two spectators across the. floor and the calling of q technical foul. which half turned to advan- tage. Then all the New Britain i, plays broke into the scoring, and from this point onward the game was rout. The third quarter end cd with the tally 3S-12. Parparian entered and Benjamin returned in the last quarter. during the first | minute of which c. Nagle went out on fouls. The club again piled up it's points and finished the game with 1 four men when Grusha committed his fourth personal and 1t was found that all the subs had gone down. i stairs.
 i Kley again led the club attack 1 with F points and was the pivotal | point for most of the plays. His work was highly praised by the wis | tors after the game. and they did not exaggerate In the least. The l forwards almost took a night off, as guard plays were worked con- tinually and all the defensive men l broke into the scoring column. Pete
 Silva, club guard for three years,
 broke his record when he made
 eight points In the same game, and
 he played only the second half. The shooting of Balf and the scrappy
 floor play of Taylor featured foA

 The record of the girls from the Springfield factory is just as, good as that of the men, but the Landers team has not been defeated either, so that a "Trip snorting' game ought to whip the fans into shape for the final struggle Of the night.
 Landers girls have played five i games this year and have won three. The first two games went overtime and had to be called off as tie games since neither Landers nor it's opponents of the night would allow q score.

 During the first half of 1925, the Matchmen met with mediocre sue cess. They won six and lost three games. The second half of the sea- son saw the team gallop it's way to nine straight victories with season total of IT wins and four defeats | In 1926. the Matchmen played an won o6 out of q games. They chalked up a total of 19 straight victories before meeting defeat by a 35 to 30 score at the hands of the Springfield Y. NJ. II. A.
 The only change in the lineup this year is that which has brought Art Johnson, former pitcher with the Pioneers and other baseball teams m this city and q member of the New port, New Hampshire basketball team for the past four years, to the Springfield team to play in the back court. The rest of the lineup con- sists of Gavoni. center; Tranghess, right forward; Coffey, left forward; Connery, left guard.
 Another center, "Flop' Mccarthy, has a trick of palming two basket balls, one in each hand, a stunt that few players in the country can do. Lynch and Sullivan are substitutes.
 Johnny Sheehan, who has signed to plav with the All-NeW Britain state league team, and Captain Mer- ritt Taylor who has signed 10 play with the Meriden Endees will be III the Tabs lineup tomorrow nsht.
