St. Louis, Jan. l7 LP-Remodelel and rejuvenated by replacements, the St. Louis Browns Of the Ameri- can league. under the guiding hand of Manager Dan Howley. will enter the race this season, an untried and entirely unknown quantity in tfre junior circuit
 Gone from. the ranks is George Sisler. 1926 manager and star first baseman. Gone are Williams. Gas ton, H. Rice. Vangilder and several other veterans who last season per- formed in the spangles of the Browns. In their places will be un- tried youngsters, many of them new to the majors.

Otis Frannon and Oscar Melillo. will try for the Keystone as signment. while Ralph kress and Walter Gerber. the latter the only
 
 to patrol shortstop. Frank O'Rourke will be pressed hard by Billy Mullen for the opportunity to hold down the hot corner at third.
 At present Henie Manush, I.arl { McNeely and Fritz Schulte are the , only outfielders on the roster. but the addition Of another before spring training season rolls around. is ex- pected. Sturdy, should he be crowd ed off of first base by Blue. is like ly candidate for the outer garden. The team should be strong behind the bat with three good receivers on the list.

DELANEY WINS BY KNOCKOUT ROUTE
Spanish Heavyweight Also Comes Through With Kayo

New York. Jan. IT 1n-knockout victories had boosted the stock of Jack Delaney and Pauline Uzcudun in the heavyweigl f market today.
 Delaney furnished an unusual feat in ring performances last night by landing q single haymaker on Sully Montgomery chin in 20 seconds of the first round of Il ten round bout
 At about the same time. Uzcudun eliminated Ed keeley from the pie ture in little more than two min- utcs of mauling in the second round of another ten rounder. The referee stopped the bout.
 Starting a campaign for rccogni. ton as a challenger for heavyweight honors, Delaney struck but one blow. d right to the chin, to bowl the giant Texan on the canvas.
 Montgomery. with the pondcrous poundage of 216 against the Bridge porters 1902, rushed on his rival after they.shook hands and missed a vicious left swing by about two feet. Delaney stepped forward ninbly and caught Sully with a solid smash, ending the fight.
 It was five minutes before Mont : gomery revived with the aid ct re storatives. Some 5000 fans were jalnlned in the St. Nicholas rink as Delaney flashed the form Of the days whom he was 1he worlds light hcay, : weight champion.
 The mystery over Paulino's antics in twic" evading q. bout with kccley remained unsolved after the Basque iocisiveiy whipped the Bostonian at the new Broadway arena in Brook Iyi. About 5000 persons saw the tUsslo.
 | keeloy's soufhpaw tactics failed to make any impression on the Span 'ard. kceley landed some hard body , punches ill the first round but missed frequently. Pauline rapped his foe man time and again with, terrific right hand smashes 70 the head. i shortly after the second stanza was under way. Pauline bore in furi- ouSly with d swift tNo-listcd attack 10 'no body and face which sent keeley spinning around the ropes Pauline staggered the Hub boxer with 2 right 10 the jaw hich would have dropped keeley but for inter. , ference by the referee.
 Pauline leaves for Mexico or Thursday for 8 15 round bout against Romero Rojas in the bull ring at Mexico City on January 2?

LOCALS 10 MEET
 HARTFORD FRIDAY
High School Team Getting Ready
 for First Clash

The greatest problem which mem- bers of the New Britain High school basketball team will have to contend with this week in preparing for the first of the home and home game series with Hartford Public High school at the Hopkins street gym- l,asium Friday afternoon. will be 10 keep up passing mark in studies.
 If the Red and Gold team can be at it's full strength. there is every reason to believe the Hardware City team will come through as a winner. The regular lineup defeated d fourth Industrial League team in prac- tice game last night when the Stan ley Works visited the bowling al- ley" and suffered q one-sided de- feat. Previously the high school quintet defeated the Corbin Screw, Fafnirs and Lahders teams.
 At present Alex Zaleski is run ming low in studies as is his run, hing mate at forward. Henry kras- zewski. The teams scoring punch
 
 will be weakened considerably with cut these two players in the lineup. Should Zaleshi be ineligible. this will te the second Hartford game in which he was not eligible.
 If both of these forwards are in- eligible Coach George NJ. Cassidy will have to shift his lineup con- rletely. ScUliy. first substitute will probably be in at center, Captain Fred Saunders will be moved from c. nter to forward and Landino will be shifted from guard 10 forward. Eddie Sowka will remain at guard and the vacancy in the other guarl position will probably be filled by either Fred ZyErer. Arnold Rechcrt or John Reid.
