 ROUGH ENCOUNTER
Laurel Business College Takes
 Game Of Many Personals

Inability to convert it's free club its game with the Laurel Bus mess college of Meriden last night in what was by far the toughest contest Of the locals schedule and the Silver City five came from behind in the last period to win by o7-o4 The Meriden team committed per sonal foul after personal foul and lost two men by this route in the first half, but the locals were weak from the l5-foot strip and failed to take advantage of the numerous pen alty shots they were awarded, while they also lost their heads in the melee and made several poor passes ltors. Had the home team remained cool in the final quarter it might have won, but the players were too excited and threw away several op- portunities.
 After two minutes of play, IT. Johnson scored the first field goal, Silva making a foul shot 30 seconds later. The Johnsons did the same and offset Grusha's basket being in front by S-4 at the quarter. kley made the only field goal of the sec ond period, but the fouls were num- erous. Play was of the toughest var icty and both Theloar and F. John son were disqualified during the quarter. New Britain picked up one point during the session and the score was l2-9 at intermisson.
 In the second half Tomkiewicz and Smith pushed Meriden out into all lS-10 lead. after which New Britain made a determined rally. Gill made a field goal. Compagnone did the same. and Gill came through again, The local captain added 8 foul and kley tied the score. then sent New Britain ahead by 20-1S as the per iod ended.
 Mastriano and Tomkiewicz carried Meriden back to the fore in the fourth quarter. but Benjamin tied advantage at 24-23. That was the end of the home teams scoring, while Mastriano and H. Johnson shot baskets and Smith a foul to bring victory to the visiting aggregation. Goffa was ruled out on personals in the last 30 seconds of play.

.BAYER IS STAR
 IN NASH VICTORY
Sets Amateur League Record for
 Stops With Total of 105
IcaGmc Standing

III tue bSSL dIu lllOSl SAGillHR battle yet seen in the Amateur Roll er Hockey league. the Nash quintet came from behind last night to first tie and then defeat in an overtime period the league-leading Dodge quintet. It was mainly through the work of George Bayer in the goal for the Nash team that his mates were able to come through with a rousins victory because Bayer's work with a total of 105 stops set the amateur league. He stopped every kind of q drive and poke ina aginable throughout the game and no goalis even in the American League has ever put up q better ex- hibition than did the Nash goal tender last night.
 The fact that he had so many stops showed beyond the question that the Dodge team was on the of fensiye most of the game and were it not that Bayer was in such good form. there isn't question but that Dodge quintet would have made it a walkaway.
 The score Of the game was to 3 in favor of the Dodge. F. McAloon started the scoring with a goal in the first period, the only one either team was able to make in this frame. Casparine came through to tie the score at the outset of the sec ond period and Matty Hayes follow ed him in close order with another Eddie McAloon then came through with a flashy bit of floor work to cage one for the Dodge but before the period ended, Hall drove a fast one from near the center of the floor past Bayer's legs and Nash led Ht the end Of the second period, to 7.
 The third periods developed into a fierce battle with the Dodge get ting one goal, a nice shot by Fusari. This sent the teams into an overtime period and Matty Hayes settled the issue with a pretty drive. The summary:

Waterbury with a patched-up line
 up battled it's way to an overtime
 victory over New Britain in roller 1 hockey at the Stanley Arena last night. Ferdy Harkins was out of the game with illness and Hardy | went in at second rush for the | Shamrocks while Bradshaw filled in
 at halfback. With this combination.
 Waterbury outplayed New Britain | for two periods and succeeded in tying the score before the end Of 1 the regulation period. Davies, who scored all of Waterbury's goals. sent a screaming drive into New Britain's cage just at the 3:51 mark in the period. The score was ' to 6.
 New Britain was woefully weak in spots Starting off at a slow pace. the local players could not seem to
 get going. Boucher provided the saving grace for the home club with his flashy floor work. He scored five of New Britain's six goals The local defense was not up
 to standard while Waterbury. with a team composed of all defense men
 but one. put up veritable stone wall against New Britain
 Alexander started the fireworks with a pretty goal in the first period but. before the session had ended, Davies had scored three for the yisi- tors and Waterbury led to 1. New
 Britain came within one of tying tho m tho lan 1 Boucher got three goals while Da- vies was scoring two. Boucher got two more in the third period giving New Britain q lead but the local
 club couldn't hold the advantage and Davies scored the tying shot seven minutes after play had been re- Sumed.
 Alexander took II rushes in the game to five for Waterbury. The contest was marred by the puena- cious attitude of Rcd" Donnrlly of
 the Waterbury team. He entered the
 floor with q chip on his shoulder and he started picking on Boucher
 crashing the local rusher into the
 banks and getting half-nelson holds
 on his neck. He crashed with Brown
 on one play and fist fight resulted
 without any damage being done An
 other clash with Alexander caused
 each team 10 have two fouls called
 on it. Referee Si Mcdonald lectured
 the players in the center of the floor
 and threatened them with fines and
 both teams got down 10 playing
 roller hockey. The game was a bitter
 battle from beginning to end.

 DeliCaCies Grace Tables
 Several centuries of living in towns and contact with the outside world. together with the more fertile nature of the country. have resulted in comparatively high standards in southern kamchatka. One traveller who visited the region. prepared for a dict of dried fish, reported that he was amazed to have set before him clotted cream with powdered Cinna- mon, and a jam made of crushed wild rose leaves, sugar and bluebcrry juice.
 During the short northern sum- mers vegetation is luAuriant. Wild flowers fill the valleys with brilliant bloom. and the short rivers of the pSninsula teem with ducks and geese.

Huge Oil Field Under Eagle Eye
 of Senate

Casper. Wyo,. May 1s.-senate investigation of Salt Creek oil field leases issued under a former ad- ministration. turns the spotlight of inquiry on the big twin brother of Teapot Dome, whose simmerings nny yet be heard in Washington.
 Salt Creek and Teapot are one and the same except for ! struc- tural saddle" that separates their respective oil pools. In fact. some seologists now say that the south- crn end of Salt Creek extends into the Teapot naval oil reserve, the saddle being farther south than was first indicated by geological sur- Seys.
 Situated $ miles north of Casper. Salt Creek Is anything but a new field from the standpoint of develop ment. It was discovered in 1883, was producing oil in 1889. and has progressed with the development of the petroleum industry in general, first under provisions of the placer mining law and later under the oil land leasing law enacted in 1920. Leases challenged in the senate were based on rights recognized by several former administrations un- der which millions of barrels of oil was produced.
 Output and Revenues
 Salt Creek production long ago ran into nine figures. The field has produced to date in excess of 200,

 The robin fell from its nest last summer and LaShier fed 1t. Instead of flying away. now that 1t Is grown, 1t seeks its cage when tired or sleepy.
 Kitty showed up on the Lashier doorstep last January. Tn. cat and the robin became pals almost i'm nediately The robin frequently flies to the cats back and enjoys a ride around the house or . quiet perch while Tsbhy sleeps.
 The duck is a comparative new conner. but in a little more than q month 1t has learned to enjoy the comma nionshlp of the others All three eat from the same d,eh, but generally the duck has separate accommodations on account of its large appetite.
 The cat seems proud to draw the robin around the house on q little cart built for the purpose, When the cart IS moved the cat runs to # to be harnesed The robin shows no fear of human beings, and \ whistle from its master calls 1t to him. The bird IS delighted with music. showing especial preference for the xylophone. although it will perch on a violin bow when that in strument Is being played, The duck will ring a. dinner bell to call its mates to lunch or raise a. little flag to the top of a tiny staff

100000 barrels of crude oil from which the government has derived revenues amounting to about s45.- 100000. Federal reclamation and highway funds have benefited ma- terially from these royalties.
 It was originally estimated that the field would produce 5oo,oOo.. 900 barrels of crude. This has been revised annually. usually downward, until today no operator will hazard a guess on what the actual output will be when the hnal figures are written. It has already been large enough to place the field in the first ranks of the worlds greatest light oil fields.
 Production of the field last year was about 1l.35c.0o0 barrels after having reached a peak of $500. 900 barrels in 1923. Production is be- ing limited at the present time to about 41.o00 barrels a day in line with refining needs at the Casper plants of the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana and the Midwest Refining Co, Standard subsidiary.
 The Midwest company. from which the present large control of the Standard developed. entered the Salt Creek field in 1910 and ac- quired extensive holdings. Its ex- pansion was rapid both in field and refining operations. the Midwest Re- fining Co. being an outxrowth of the larger activities. The Standard pur- chased the Midwest to get control.
 Refutation was recently made of the claim that Teapot oil was drain- ing from the reserve into Salt Creek. Although statements were made that analine dyes poured into Teapot wells turned up in Salt Creek pro- duction. this report has been denied by the Teapot reserve inspector and the district supervisor for the min eral leasing division of tho U. S. geological survey. No "colors" have been found to date. they say.
