The locals started off fast and two baskets by Arbour gave them an early lead. The Hart ford team came back strong and held a II to ' lead at the half time.
 In the second half the Burrits, led by the sensational shooting Of Ar- bour. started a beautiful comeback and took the lead with ten minutes to go, 17 to 16. At this point the Hartford five came back into its own and ran up ten-point lead that the Burritts could not overcome. Both teams scored nine baskets apiece but the foul shooting of the Speed Boys gave them the edge.
 'Hank" Arbour played a wonder full game for the locals and held his man scereless from the field besides scoring five baskets himself. Dar- row also played a strong game and held his man scoreless. Neither Hartford forward was able to tally from the floor. The game was mar red by continual rough playing and poor officiating. McKiernan and Curtin led the attack of the winners. scoring 2l of their teams c7 points.

Last Nights Result Waterbury 6, Meriden 5.

Waterbury 6. Meriden $.
 An opportunity for the New Brit- ain Roller Hockey team to strength en it's hold on first place in the American Roller Hockey league will be given it tonight when the Wal- lingford team appears at the Stan ley Arena in q league game. Both teams are as yet undefeated in the second half play of the circuit and one or the other will be on the debit side of the ledger tonight
 Wallingford ended up the first half of the season in the cellar but that doesn't mean that the team in- tends to be there in the second half. The quintet served notice on the rest of the teams in the league to this effect Tuesday night when the Boroughites downed Waterbury, which captured the championship of the league in the first half of the schedule.
 With Earl Pierce as a running mate for Kid" Duggan, Walling- ford has two scoring threats who will have to be watched all the time. Hardy at center plays fast game while Williams and Conley form a. tough defense. Conley, de- spite the fact that he was a mem- Der of the tail-end team in the first half. was one of the most effective goal tenders in the circuit.
 The play of the New Britain team in ifS rrf,anf yy,aa hae hnon canoo. tional. It has gone through the league and beaten decisively the four other teams. It took Wallins- ford two out of three over the Christmas weekend. It split even with Meriden in 8 home and home series. It measured Holyoke and ended up Monday night by shutting out Waterbury.
 The team will present the same strong lineup that has brought it with jump to the front in the standing. Bib" Boucher, the di- minutive speed king. and Alexander. will be at the forwards. Alexander bids fair. if he keeps up his work. to be premier rusher in the league. Captain Archie Muirhead will play at center. "Gid" Brown who is fast becoming recognized as one of the greatest halfbacks in the league. will protect Blount while Blount himself will caper before the New Britain cage.
 The players have all recovered completely from minor bruises and they will be out to continue their winning streak tonight. Eddie Me- Aloon will be held in reserve to fill in at q moments notice. With this crew. New Britain stands ready to meet the best that Wallingford can send and unless something happens, New Britain will still have a clean slate after tonight's game.
 A preliminary will be staged at s o'clock with Harry Kieffer as the star attraction. The main contest will get under way about o'clock.

Tnte1uns,f1iate .Yn Iean,

The Lions chalxed up their fourth straight win in tho Intermediate County "" basketball league last night when they defeated the State Trade school at the Nathan Hale Junior High school in one of the roughest games Of the season. Ref cree Abe Aronson called IS fouls on the yictors and l3 on the losers and sent five men, including both cap tains. to the showers.
 The Lions started fast and had six points before the Traders counted on foul. The shooting of l.. Mar selli and Dennis kept the winners ahead during the first half. which closed with the score 19-9. Cohen played q whale of 6 game for the school quintet and made two neat field goals to keep his team within striking distance.
 In the second half the Lions kept going, with Billy Becker leading the attack. Abel. Trade School guard. helped the Lions along in the third period. Marselli had foul shot and missed it, whereupon Abel followed it up and scored a field goal for the wrong team. With five minutes of the period left Captain Frost of the Traders committed his fourth per- sonal and was elected. He was fol- lowed shortly by Captain Luke of the Lions and then in turn by Abel. Marselli, and Cohen. When Marsel- Ii went out the Lions were left with only four men and had to play the remaining four minutes with this diminished number.
 Becker and Marselli led the Lions attack. with Dennis and the guards putting up good defense. Becker, who was given his first real chance last night, played great game and scored seven points. one basket be- ing nifty shot from the mid-court. Marselli sank a one hand toss from a corner while going at full speed. Cohen and Abel featured for tle Traders. The summary:

New Britain fight fans will have the opportunity of seeing their sec- ond professional fight card of the year at the Stanley Arena tomorrow night when the New Britain A. C. presents Nando Tassi of New Haven and Frankie Cavanaugh in A feat ure bout of eight rounds. The weights heads program that in cludes in all five fights the other four being over the six-round route.
 Tassi's first appearance here show ed that he had much promise but be- cause Referee Mccarthy stopped the fight in the third round on the claim that Gitlitz was using the rabbit" punch, Tassi was immediately book ed for a reappearance here in re- sponse to the demands of many fans and the problem of seeking worthy opponent for him was presented.
 Frankie Cavanaugh. whom Tassi meets, is considered one of the stiff est punchers in the light heavy weight ranks in Connecticut. He has fought 3S bouts. winning 2s of them and the list of his victims in- cludes the names of many prominent fighters in this section. He is re- ported to be in great shape for the go and Tassj will be pushed to the limit 10 gain the decision.
 The supporting card promises an Nf hn ,pt brings together Frankie O'Brien of Hartford and Kid Decker of Pitts field. Decker. after kayoing Tracy Ferguson of Wallingford. two weeks ago, lost a hard fight to the bor- ough farmer Monday night. His work, however, was very good and he and O'Brien should furnish real bout.
 Two former weltcrweight amateur champions will clash in one of the preliminaries when pinky Kaufman of Hartford and Jackie Ryan Of Bridgeport swap punches. Ryan held sway among the amateur 147 pounders in 1921 and 1922 while Kaufman gained the title last year. Because of this fact, Kaufman and Ryan will both be eager to gain the verdict over the other.
 The fight of the night is expected to result when Buster Nadean of Holyoke faces Joe Triano of New Haven for the third time. Two draw verdicts were rendered in two four rnnpd ho,ltS in !, ich these two We're the principals and i'll going two moro rounds. both boys will have the op- portunity of showing which has the more stamina.
 The curtain raiser will bring Mickey Roberts out as a pro against Reny Chadut of Holyoke This will also be a siX-round affair.
 The first bout on the nights card will be started at S:15 o'clock sharp.

LOCAL QUINTET TO MEET
 ATLAS SATURDAY NIGHT
New Britain Team Tied With Bristol Endees for Second Place in First Round - Weekend Game to Finish First Part of Schedule-New Haven Team One of Best Assembled Together in Several Years-Fierce Battle Expected-No Changes Made in Lineup.

X battle as furious as any seen here in the Connecticut State Bas- ketball league will be fought at the Stanley Arena Saturday night when the Atlas A. c. team of New Haven makes it's first appearance of the year in this city. The New Haven team has cinched the championship of the first half of the league sched- ulc but despite the fact that noth- ing hinges on the victory except the prestige of winning. there should be plenty Of fight from the first to the last whistle.
 The New Britain team has just come to the surface again after be- ing sunk twice in succession by the Meriden Endees and the players are beginning to feel that they are set to start Saturday night on q pro- lonsed winning streak. These two defeats at the hands of tho Silver City quintet put New Britain out Of the running for q possible chance al the title for the first half of the league and Hartford's loss to Bristol placed the Bell Town Endees in tie for second place with New Brit ain.
 Nev Britain and Bristol both have to mett the Atlas before they finish the first round and New Britains chance 10 break the ice comes next Saturday night
 The Atlas team is he strongest to represent the New Haven club in several years. The addition of sev eral new men to the lineup has placed the Elm City team back on the plane which it occupied some years ago as the unbsatsn champion quintet Of New England,
 Cohen, Sammy Ilto and BotWin- !. ick make up the forward combina- lions and all three are flashes on basket. Trupin jumps center. Chadys. Gordon and Lyman play in the back court. These players make the team one of the strongest com binations in Connecticut basketball and New Britain will have its hands full in dumping the New Haven team.
 New Britain will probably line up with Sloman and Johnny Sheehan at forwards. ZakZeWski at center and 1.eary and Sturm at guards. This combination started in Meriden last Monday night and although it didn't get going until the second half. it showed a better attack then than the team has displayed all season. Man. ager Clarence Lanpher feels conii- dent that New Britain will win the game.
 A preliminary will be played be- tween two teams from the Girls ln- dustrial league. This will start at o'clock with the main contest go- ing on At 3 o'clock.
