Chicago, April Ip - The five straight exhibition victories of his Chicago Cubs over the National lea = que champions. Pittsburgh. have convinced William Wrigley, gum and baseball magnate. that his club al last is certain of a pennant
 And his opinion is upheld general ly by sport fans of Chicago.
 Home after watching the Cubs in their victorious training season. Wrigley was joyful today. The com- bination of Cub pitchers and hitters, led by the former Pirate, kiki Guy Ter. and Hack Wilson. together vii several new iniielders, will stop any team in the senior circuit, he be- l!eves
 ''Say. wait until you see that team" he enthused. "1hey arc the best team in the league and the best we have had in years. They've got everything everything. Pitchers, hitters-and. say. wait until the fans get another look at this boy Cuyler! There's the fellow that's made 'em. And they said he was temperamcntal. Why. he's the cas- isst fellow on the team to get along with. He'll do anything for the Cubs and he's going to do lot, you wait and see"

Milford, England. April 2 (P> --- 1 In a rousing four round fight, Wis count knebworth. e5 year old son and heir of the Earl of Iytton. last night defeated Policeman Bone, d young London bobby" Knebworth. a welterweight. pre- viously had achieved q reputation as an amateur boxer. He was too last for Bone. who although a novice, was not inexpert when it comes to exchanging blows with the representative of the nobility.
 His Lordship took the lead from the start, demonstrating a danger ous left which constantly found the bobby's head. Bone. however, man. aged to get d few blows past the noblcman's guard.
 There was much fighting at close quarters in the second round and kneDworth had the better of it. In the third and fourth rounds His IboI lIIillINclIlth lllS duN dIlldE Ef but Bone drove in some smart short arm jabs in retaliation for the viscounts lefts. The referees award of the bout to knebworth was en- enthusiastically cheered.
 Chatting after the fight, Niscount Nncbworth said. with q laugh. that he would like 10 fight the entire police force since they had sum- moned him 10 court three or four times for leaving his car unattcnd- ed.
 Knebworth is a direct descendant of Edward Bulwer Lytton. poet. novelist, orator and statesman. He gained prominence as a boxer while at Oxford.

ill the second. New Haven now de- elines 10 decide the issue. Why: Need the question be answered?
 In the course Of negotiations for the final playoff. Manager Lanpher offered Ucylhing possible in the Way ot cons"ssions. Common sens" dictated that d single game should h' played to decide the question. Business acumen prompted that tn. contest be staged here.
 Manager Bailey demurred against staging the game in New Britain claiming that the home club would have an advantage. "We are not in the game Tor the money said Bail " at the time. IVY" are playing only for the sport of it." Yet, when faced with the direct question. Will you or won't you play"' he stated that he would. provided that There were two games, one in New Britain and one in New Haven. Manager Lanpher failed 10 warm Up 10 this plan but he finally consented.
 Then something else came up and Manager Bailey called off nego;ia- tons again. At this stage Of the proceedings. Manager Lanpher then offered to play the game anywhere. New Britain, Meriden. Bristol, Hart ford or even New Haven. He offer cd 10 put up stake equalling any thing the New Haven team would offer, the winner 10 take all. The local players offered 10 stake their pay with a little added against liilc amount 10 hc furnished by New Haven. the winner 10 take all. The New Haven answer to al! this was Nothing doing"
 Then finally yesterday morning everything was arranged for a two game series on the home and home plan. This lasted only until last night when the bombshcll exploded.
 After the Ccltics
 Manager Lanphcr is attempting this morning 10 arrang" for the ap- pearance of the Celtics in this city Saturday night in place Of the New Haven team. Whether he will have any success or not depends on tho bookings Of the New York outf'.

After completing arrangements for
 q final playoff for the state basket ball championship with Manager 1 Lanpher of the New Britain basket ball team yesterday morning. Man
 ager sam Bailey of the Atlas quintet
 team pilot and notified him that it was only an April Toor' joke be-
 cause the game was not going to be /, played. Manager Bailey stated that the Atlas club had held regular
 meeting during the evening and upon action Of the club. hr was forced to call off the homo and home series which had been agreed upon.
 1 Pressed for d reason by Manager .Lanpher, Bailey stated that he was this excuse is so fljmsy that an ash sieve is q cement stone wall in com parison. Yesterday morning Ian pher was assured that tho cntir" Atlas lineup would be horo Saturday
 night but last night the situation i was reversed and there will be no game.
 Relations hetw.en the two clubs have been severed and there will be
 no game between New Britain and
 New Haven now. according 10 Man
 ager Lanpher. Feeling as he does
 at the present time. it will require q
 great deal Of diplomacy if New . lt;t trs
 sented by tho Atlas cluh, ever meet again on the chalked court.
 Although it is an empty hauhln
 at best. New Britain claims the state
 championship by default. Little sal
 isfaction will be gained by any of
 the packers of the local team in this action. though it is rightfuly taken. because New Britain never wanted a synthetic championship that could not be settled in the way it should be, on the field of battle.
 ITO me" said Manager Lanph"r, and to the members of my team, the championship doesn't mean q thing. What I wanted and what the players wanted was to meet the At- las once again. We don't care about empty titles. We want to prove that VIC are a better bask ethall combina~ ton than New Haven. Whatever happens now, there will be no game with that team no matter if l had to close out the season right now"
 Most Of the fans in this city are certain that there should be lemon tinted pcnnant flown to the breeze over the Atlas club house. Through the maze of hedging tao tics employed. through the smoke screen Of poor excuses. the one un- questioned fact stands ont in their minds and that is. the Atlas team is afraid of New Britain. Never before has such a controversy been waged wherein a manager in the position of Lanrher, offered everything with in reason just to get the two teams [ together. that resulted in the oppos- ing club showing its true colors like the Atlas has done in the present instance.
 Agreements apparently moan lit- tic to the New Haven club. The Connecticut State Basketball league when organized was planned in two sections. a first and second half. The team winning the first halt was to play a series with the club winning the second half to decide the state title. New Haven won the first sec tion while New Britain took honors

From the standpoint Of local fans. many more questions could be asked regarding the situation but there could only be the one answer--thc Atlas management is afraid to play.
 No other manager In state basket ball circles can be pictured in the sama light or doing the same thing. Joa Carroll. Jack Curry. Prank Tredo. Cunningham Of Waterbury. and Clarence Lanpher, If they were in tho same position. would recruit some kind of team, despite the hazards, to carry out an agreement.
 We are satisfied that there will be no game and we are satisfied that negotiations have been called off be- cause of the reasons advanced, Of course. relations between New Brit ain and New Haven will now be on an absolutely different plane. The situation Is now definite. New Brit ain and New Haven will not play. New Britain claims the champion ship by default. That's OK with us

April Fool Day will be marked in New Britain this year by the with drawal of the Atlas basketball team rom an agreement with the New Brlta1n team 10 settle the question Of the state championship. In the morning the game was ou. In the evening 1t was off.
 We're it not for the fact that the basketball fans of this city wanted 10 see the two teams play. we know that negotiations would have been called off last week. But. Manager Clarence Lanpher. anxious 10 please the fans who have so Loyalty sup ported him this season. sumberged his own pride and feeling in the hope that he could stage q final championship game.
 What other reason for this latest action which absolutely breaks ath- letic relations between the two clubs. can be given other than the Atlas team is afraid to attempt to decide the issue? If there is another req son. what Is it? Why can't the New Haven team bs assembled together: Why was 1t that Cohen and Jack Rothenfeld. both New Workers who are chased among the players who cannot be secured. expressed keen pleasure in the hope that the final championship game would be played?
