1t is a little hard to give adj
vice upon things of this sort
when one knows so little about
the persons involved. This much is
true-in the case of q woman it is
almost impossible for her to make
a declaration of the affections I'M
less one is very sure that the man
is eager to hear. In spite of all our
modernity of thought and action,
the woman is still handicapped in
this respect
Men, however, "have the edge
to drop into modern slang. I believe
that they are foolish not to use this
advantage of speech when they feel
inclined. If they are laughed at
for telling a woman that they love
her and want to marry her, they
will at least have found out one i'm
portant thing-that is, that she is
lacking in understanding and ap-
probation. No matter how his
claims to fame or fortune, man
can do a woman no greater honor
than to ask her to be his wife. If
she finds it amusing, he is fortunate
to have discovered this lack in
time.
Decidedly I should advise all
young men in love to follow John
Alden's example and speak for
themselves.

League standing

A "jinx" Of two years standing was broken Saturday night at the Stanley Arena on Church street when the New Britain Basketball team defeated the Meriden Endees 2: to lS in Connecticut State League game. It wae the first vic- tory of the Hardware City quintet over the Silver City five in five starts. Meriden having taken two last year and another pair of games this season.
 Tho game was closely fought with both teams guarding their oppon.. cnts closely. New Britain went into m early lead but by dtnt of hard fighting and spirited play. Meriden closed the sap unti1 at the rest be- riod. the score stood at l1-all., In the second period, New Britain man. aged to score one more field goal than Meriden and added foul shot 'to give the team it's three poiut ad. vantage
 Individual stars stood out prom. inently on both teams Saturday night For the locals, Leary, guard was the mainstay of the team in the hectic first half. Counting three bas- kcts from the floor and keeping his man, Rothenfield, former Columbia University star, scoreless from scrimmnge. the Springfield lumin- ary gave New Britain six very badly needed points. His work in passing and receiving was the best he has that is saying great deal because he has been top notcher all year.
 For Meriden. Jerry Conway. was the main works. The Holyoke play CT formed the pivot around which all of the Silver City's work cen- tered and his two field baskets in the second half right at a critical time in the game, made while Jim- my Zakzewskf was on top of him, from over his head. were the feature shots of the contest.
 Both teams played equally well. Both had tough luck on shots with Meriden missing easy pops that spelled defeat for the visitors. Slo- man for New Britain was the high scorer with l0 points to his credit. Rubcnstein excelled in his floor work while Johnny Sheehnn held the slippery Billy Cook to ono field basket. The home towns team work was pretty although many times it lost the ball near the Meriden goal. New Britain was exceptionally poor from the foul line getting only two points out of 12 tries. Meriden scored three out of eight. stavinit- sky, former Plainfield star, was Mer- iden's high scorer with seven points and his work was exceptional.
 First Half
 Leary. at the two-minute mark. opened the scoring of the game with q pretty cut and shot. At tho three and a half mark. Stavinitsky popped che for. Mcriden. At 4:45, Leary again caged one for New Britain and at tho seven minute mark ne made it to with a long shot from the side. Sloman added a field bas- ket and it wasn't until the 10 min ute mark had been reached that Lingner was able to throw in a foul shot for Meriden.
 Stavinitsky followed with a pretty basket for Meridcn but Sloman off set this with nifty shot from un- der the basket. Cook slipped past Sheehan for his only basket of the game making the count 10 to in favor of New Britain. Rothenfeld
