 The HiIlhouse team displayed a fast passing attack that constantly had tho New Britain team baffled. Although Gildea and Pitch scored the majority of the points for the winners, it was through the fault of the men assigned to guard them.

 Zaleski led the New Britain of. fensive with l4 points. scoring three baskets and eight foul points. Saun- ders was badly handicapped at cen- ter because of his injured ankle but, after being outjumped by his man in the first half, came back to form in the second half and took tho jump with ease. He was forced to stay in the back court in order 10 save his ankle. Sowka played . strong game at guard. Landino and Kraszewski played good floor game. For the winners Gildea and Pitch vera the shining lights.
 The Game.
 Gildea opened the game by sink ing two foul points. Zaleski scored the locals first point with a foul basket. DeAngelis increased his team's lead with two foul points. Pitch sank in the first basket of tho game from mid-floor and Gildea fol- lowed him with another.

 Arosky swished the nets to in- crease New Haven's lead at the starr of the second period. l.andino. Za- lcski and Kraezewski followed with foul points bu. Click dropped in basket and foul just before the end of the canto. giving New Haven Is to 6 lead at the half.
 Second Half.
 Baleski and Krasxewski started off on spurt in the third quarter and three successive baskets put the To- calls but three points behind New Haven. The rest Of the period was evenly fought. clever foul shooting by Zaleski keeping the Red and Gold team within striking distance of the leaders.
 New Haven changed its tactics in the final period, and abandoned its passing attack for long shooting.

 Flashing all of the form it dis played in the first part of the second round of the American roller hockey league, the New Britain team con tinued it's drive towards the top po- sition by smothering Hartford yes- terday afternoon at the Stanley Arena by the score of to 3. The Hardware City quintet used the combination that it originally start ed out with this year putting Brown in center and Muirhead at halfback k and both men starred in the respec- tive positions.
 Alexander was the scoring ma chine of the day getting six of New Brttain's counters while Boucher got the other. Boucher and Alexander worked nicely together flashing plenty of speed on the floor and power in their drives. Boucher's work against Fred Jean. the Hart ford center. was especially good. He outplayed the old veteran from the start to the finish and his passes gavo Alexander several Of the shots that he turned into goals.
 Hartford was clearly outplayed. Welch and St. Aubin. using a center to the side passing game were help less before the onslaught Of Brown and Muirhead and if they happened to get behind this pair. Bill Blount. playing as spectacularly as he has all season, would stop the drives one after the other.
 New Britain hoped into an early lead by scoring two goals in the first period. Bount counters were put in by Alexander who possessed keen eye all through the game. Besides the six goals he scored, he had two others that came out while Boucher hal one of this sort

 Also, traffic via Cape Decision to ports in southern c h h a m Strait, in Sumner Strait, and on the west coast of Wales Island, is materially increasing owing to the growth in number and importance Of salmon cannerie3 and herring salter.cs ard reduction plants To- cated in these waters. This traf- fife will be unaffected by Channel improvements in Wrangell Nag- rows.

 TO NAVIGATION
 RECOMPLETED
Bureau Lighthouses Makes Recommendations for
 Work in Alaska

During the fiscal year ending June 30, 1928, the Bureau of Light l houses established 27 new aids to navigation in Alaskan waters, ac- coiding to the annual report of 1 the Commissioner of Lighthouses recently submitted to the Secre- tary of Commerce. This brought the total number of such aids up to 779. a
 It includes: 22S lights, 22 gas buoys, two radiobeacons, IA other fog signals, 2S3 buoys, and ITO day . marks. In 1910 the total number Iof aids was 160. -i In his report the Commissioner recommended $75,0OO for the es- tablishment of a light and fog signal station at CT in the vicinity of Cape Decision, and $15,000 for establishing new aids in Territor- ial waters.
 Cape Decision Light
 In connection with these recom- mendations, he said:
 Cape Decision is an important headland located on the north side of the comparatively narrow pas sage connecting Chatham and Sum- ner Straits. Vessels operating on the principal route through South eastern Alaska, which by reason of their size or on account of the unfavorable stage of the tide, do not make use of the shorter route through Wrangell Narrows, proceed by way of Sumner Strait, Chatham Strait and Frederick Sound. or vice versa, which takes them past Cape Decision. Also, a number of steamers and many deep sea fishing vessels pass this point to and from the sea by way of Cape Ommaney. Fog is of frequent oc- currence in this locality, often pre- vailing in the immediate vicinity of Cape Decision when it is clear on each side. Navigation of the
 
 adjacent waters is dangerous in thick weather on account of the strong tidal currents, the broken nature of the shore, and the nu- merous off-lying rocks. There is no light at present on Cape De- cision, but a small automatic light IS maintained on the opposite shore Of Spanish Islands. Provision has been made by Congress- for inn proving Wrangell Narrows, but the tendency in recent. years has been to place larger vessels in the Alaska service, and still larger ves- seis will be assigned in the near future. It will. therefore, doubt less be necessary for some of the larger vessels to avoid Wrangeli
