STONE ID BATTLE
 SOCC0L| TONIGHT
Local Cue Artist to Try to Wipe
 Out Former Defeat

Frank Stone. Bridgeport entry in the state championship pocket bil- Hard tournament, will invade the Hardware city tonight to take on Dominick Soccoli, representative of the Elmore Billiard parlors, at the Main street sports emporium.
 Stone hopes tonight to get re- venge on Soccoli for previous trouncing handed him by the local boy on his own home grounds. At that time Soccoli trimmed the Bridgeport cueist to the tune of 100 to 49 and this has remained as a sore spot in the Park City boys mind.
 The score of that match, however, does not give a true account of the prowess of the Bridgeporter and Soc- coli will have to be on his toes all night to pull through with a win against him.
 Soccoli has started the second round of the tournament in great shape and his large gathering of fol- lowers in this city are back of him to man to defeat Stone tonight. The combination of safe playing and sure shooting that Soccolo has adopt ed has made him one of the most feared men in the league.
 He is fast climbing into the driv- CTS seat with the rest of the league leaders and a win tonight will place him within striking distance of the ton

 REGAIN TENANT
Giant Manager Reinforcing His
 Every Line Of Defense

New York. Jan. IS -IP-Rein-
 forcements for every line of his de-
 fonsc and attack have fired the am-
 bitions of John McGraw to bring
 back the National league pennant to New York in the 26th year of his
 reign as pilot of the Giants.
 There will be a small army of
 recruits many of them from the col lege ranks. when the Gotham con- tingent heads southward next month for spring training. But mid-winter trades of the veteran manager pre- sage a continued McGraw policy of relying largely on seasoned cam paigncrs-holdover stars and players obtained from Brooklyn, St. Louis and Philadelphia.
 The major stroke in McGraw's re- construction effort has been the sensational trade that brought Rogers Hornsby from the worlds champion Cardinals in exchange for Inflelder Frank Frisch and Pitcher Jimmy Ring. McGraw believes he se- cured in the famous slugger a smart captain whose leadership on the field will ably second his own strategic bench direction.
 With the erstwhile manager of the Cardinals perched on second base, McGraw also has intimated that Bill Terry, young and hard hitting in fielder, may replace George Kelly. veteran first baseman. Travis Jack son, at shortstop and Freddy Lind strom at third complete the pros pective infield, while among the six other candidates will be Eddie Far rell. former Pennsylvania captain, and Andy Cohen.
 Confronted by gaps In his out field resulting from the release of Irish Meusel and Ross Young's ill., ness. the club has obtained George Harper from the Phillies, and the "Bev" Lebourveau. hitting star of last years Toledo American associa- tion club.
 Al Tyson. Heinie Mueller and the youthful Melvin Ott remain from last year. Prospects among recruits 1 include Al Moore of Jersey City, | Reese Of Memphis, Tex ! Jeanes of Birmingham. Otis Carter l of Newark, and Red Smith a col lesian from William and Mary.
 Al Devormer, acquisition from | Louisville and former major leaguer, | is an outstanding backstop candi- date. Paul Florence, holdover from | last year, and Sanford Hamby of | Norfolk also arc available catchers. |
 Indications are that McGraw | again will attempt to steer his club 1 away from the second division with out star southpaw. Jack Bentley, | former first baseman with the Phil | lies, will attempt the portside fling l ing. McGraw has added Burleigh | Grimes. righthander from the Rob- | ins. to the veterans. Virgil Barnes. | Fred Fitzsimmons. Kent Greenfield, | and Hugh McQuillan. Among the | recruits are Fay Thomas of l New Haven, Ned Porter of the Uni versity of Florida. Howard Holland | of the University of Virginia and ! several minor leaguers.

50. CHURCH STAYS
 IN SECOND PLACE
Defeats Hi-Y Club Of Manchester
 in County ' League Game
County "Y" League

The South church retained second place in the Senior County "Y" league last night by defeating the Manchester Hi-Y club. 45-25, at the Center church in Manchester The game was only moderately fast. New Britain having the edge after the middle of the first quarter, but both sides sank sensational shots from all angles and thus atoned for rath- CT mediocre passwork.
 Welles scored first for Manches- ter, but Bell tied the score; the home team slipped out 10 62 lead, but New Britain came back to pass Manchester and pull away to a 21-10 lead at the rest period. Dur ing the second half the South church continued to increase its margin although Manchester rallied vigorously at times. First one team and then the other would Lombard the basket, but New Britain's at tacks were more sustained.
 Bell and Mercy ran wild. the for mer getting ten baskets from all angles and Mercy accounting for six field goals. Vessels kept his forwards fed with passes and play ed fine all-around game, while Mays work as defensive guard was clever. The Manchester forwards could not get away from their guards but Welles, from guard, played wonderful game and SCOT ed seven field goals, most of them while going at full speed. Coe also did well for the losers. The sum- mary:
New Britain herald., 1927-01-18

In Crotty, the Fittons have a for ward who well merits the name of Flash He is quick both mentally and physically and is a crack shot. "Snappy" O'Connell who has been seen in action by many New Britain fans, is one of the best basketball shots in the country. With these two at forwards. Goo" Thompson at center and Morley and Irwin at guards. the National Guards are meeting combination that will bring out the best in basketball if the locals are to win.
 Manager Clarence Lanpher of the local team will send in his aces against this crack outfit. New Brit ain will be fortified with line of regulars and reserve material that will make the Fittons travel at top speed all through the game. Sloman and Rubenstcin will probably start with Mert Taylor getting into tho game. After a slow start, Taylor is coming back to show the same dash a. fire that has characterized his playing in former years.
 Reynolds and Rcstelli will both probably get a chance 10 show their wares against the Fittons at center and in playing Thompson. both men, will meet one of the best in the game. Either of the focal men can be counted on 10 take care of the visiting pivot man.
 New Britain is especially strong in the guarding department with three efficient men. Captain Ted ders" kilduff, Johnny @heehan or "Butsy' Sturm all play so we'll that there is little difference in them. Sturm has been fitting into the line up 10 perfection and all three will be used in the game tomorrow night.
 The Fittons will bring q team here which has almos. perfect team work. Though professional aggre- gation, the quintet will play at the state armorv here under amateur rules The quintet has had such wide Hyno.ionNe about t'5a country That tt is @aDlIar ri;d both the professional and amateur rules and is proficient at either game.

NAYS MEET TOUGH TEAM
 FROM BOSTON TOMORROW
Visitors Form One of Leading Professional Qunets of the Country = O'Conne Rated As One of Best Shots in the Game - Five Formerly Played in American League-Guards to Send in Strongest Lineup-Face Chances of First Home Defeat

The National Guard basketball team will face the crack Fitton A. c. quintet of Boston tomorrow night at the state armory on Arch street In what should be one of the greatest basketball exhibitions seen in this city in q number of years.
 The Boston combination. known last year as the Boston Whirlwinds representing the Hub in the Ameri- can Professional league during the first half, has a record that is hardly equalled by any other team in the country. The team is on an annual tour which takes them through the New England states and in many other sections Of the country. Play ing 45 games in the Greater Boston Pro league following their contests in the American league, the Fittons won 40 Of them and became cham pions Of the league for the second consecutive season.
 Due to the lack Of a suitable play ing court in Boston, the Fittons were forced to give up their American league franchise and thus, the team is independent now and after beating everything in and around Boston, steps out to conquer the best teams in the other parts of the country.
 The squad is made up of Riley. now with the Washington team in the American league: Leo Martin. Fiddle" Morley, "Snappy" O'Con- nell, Flash" Crotty. Goo Thomp- son, Fat" O'Rourke and Red" Irwin. These men form several combinations which have beaten the best teams in the country. holding victories over such teams as Cleve- land Rosenblooms. Rochester Gen. trals, Buffalo, Detroit and many other crack American league teams

League Standing

One of the sensational games of the Industrial league play this sea- son is expected to be staged at tho Y. M. c. A. tonight when the Rus sell & Erwin team, tied with the Corbin Screw quintet for the lead, meets the Stanley Rule So Level five. one of the strongest combinations in the loop.
 The game will be the second of the two battles tonight. The first will find the Stanley Works battling to topple the Corbin Screw from its lofty position and good fight Is ex- pected in this clash.
 The Stanley Rule started off poor- ly in the season, but the team has won consistently since it's present lineup was cemented. Among the fans of the city, it is being made the favorite to take the measure of the RussWins tonight. With Sloman and Carrazzo available tonight for the forward berths. Plurin or Demarest for center and Murphy and Arburr at guard, the Russwins face the toughest task of the year in setting this team aside.
 It is a peculiar coincidence that the two teams which are tied for the lead in the Industrial league meet different teams in the same night. win for one and a loss for the other will mean definite breaking Of the tie while if both teams win, the deadlock will remain intact.
 The first game tonight wll take place promptly at o'clock and the second game will follow right after wards. Dick Dillon vii referee and dancing vii be enjoyed.
