LAHAR IS AGAIN
 LEADING SCORER
Tops ''Dusty' Point Gttters for
 Second Successive WoA

Paul LaHar, forward on the Faf- mir Bearing team of the Y. NJ. c. A. Industrial league, accomplished a feat which has not been done before during the present season. by lead ing the league in scoring for two weeks In succession.
 Although he did not play last Tuesday night he stayed on top of the heap. Tuesday was an idle day for the members of the exclusive circle with the exception of Ham my" Darrow. ''Hammy" had a won- derful opportunity to sneak up from fourth to first place among the SCOT CTS, but the best he did was to tie Stanley" Arena for second place honors. He made the only gain and the victim of the gain was Axel l'loden who dropped into fourth place. Bucheri stills stays with the first five. None of those just outside the circle was able to overtake him.
 Arena and Floden. New Britain Machine forwards, continue to lead the league in foul shooting. Every one of the five who are now topping the league have led the league in Iscoring at one time or other except Arena who has been in second place several times. but cannot seem to hit top position.

RAY FAILED TO BECOME A PRO
Ready to Make Comeback in Try for the Olympic Team

Chicago. Jan. aS (UP)-Joie Rays comeback announcement was &C., cepted in athletic circles today as proof that track is one sport not yet ready for open professionals.
 Five years ago. Ray. with rec ord of 4:12. was considered the worlds greatest miller. Then Paavo Nurmi came along and ran the mile in 4:10.4.
 Ray tried desperately to better the record but discovered that in- stead of doing better he was going back" finally. not having amassed any money along with his trunkful of medals, he decided to cash in on what he had left and announced that he would become money run ner. The result was, that he never appeared in a professional race be- cause there was no one to run against.
 Ray theorizad that he could make Q lot of money transforming over the country, defeating local celehri- ties much in the same manner that some prize-fighters do.
 So Ray went to work in a steel mill in Gary. Ind.
 Now comes Johnny Behr. the l. A. c. trainer. with the word that the hard work in the mills has built up Joie's strength and there is a possibility that he may be as good as ever.
 Johnny admits that it's impossible right now to tell whether Ray can comeback. He has never been far out of condition.". Behr said, "and he'll be ready for indoor running in another month"
 Ray does have one thing in his favor. He is not yet 30 but at that 30 is fairly ripe age for man who has been out of active compe- tition. to come back and expect to cover | mile in less than 4:t4. Ray believes he can make the Olympic team again. In that con. nection there is the matter of his again becoming an amateur. How. ever since he has never competed al & professional. Behr holds that hs las never become a professional.
 It was believed that Ray merely will have to re-establish his amateur standing and not 70 through any ordealS of reinstatement.

ROOT WORRIES CUBS
Ace of ChicaSo Tean,'s Hurting Sta6 Returns Contract to Club Onscials Unsigned.

Chicago, Jan. cs R,-Charlie Root. whose fast curves worried many Ma tional League batsmen last season. now is worrying his own baseball club. the Chicago Cubs.
 Dissatisfied with some provtso In his 1928 contract Root. ace of the Cubs pitching staff. has returned the document unsigned. President veeck refused to discuss the case except to say he was confident the disa greement would be adjusted sat. isfactorily and that Root would be with the squad when it starts It's spring training at Catalina 1sland next month.
 Chicago baseball writers general ly are of the opinion that Root wants no recurrence of the heavy mound duty imposed upon him last summer during the Cubs desperate drive for the pennant, and wants that stipulated in the contract.
 Root won 20 and lost IS samc% last season, but was called to the mound many other times as relief pitcher after but only days rest.

 First place in the Inter-Church basketball league will be the prize for the winner of the South Congre- gational-st. Matthew's Lutheran game at the Y. M. c. A. tonight, and the contest bids fair to be the best of the first half of the schedule. Neither team has been defeated this year. the St. Matts having taken their three games and tho South church sweeping the league contests and seven outside battles. These were the two serious contenders of q year ago, when the St. Matts lost the title by a single point, and it appears that again this pair of teams will fight 1t out for the cham pionshtp. The South church will have its regular lineup and has it's reserve strength back at top pitch with the recovery of Rockwell. while the St. Mats, with Ernst klopp back with the team. are even more for midable than in their early games. This game of such promising inter- est and thrills. will be the second of the night and will start at S:30 o'clock.
 The other two games should be as good, as they bring together we'll matched teams. In the opener the Swedish Bethany and Trinity Metho- dist combinations will clash. While the latter team is in third place and the Bethany quintet has yet to win game. each put up just about as good an argument before succumb- ing to the St. Matts, 50 that tonisht's affair Is 8 toss-up. The game is set for 7:45 o'clock.
 In the final game of the night. scheduled for 0:l5 o'clock, the two least experienced teams of the league will come together. The Center Con- gregationalists have lost all three starts, but gave their opponents much food for thought in the first two and were swamped last week only because of the absence of Hai gis. If he is back in the central circle tonight the LutheranS will find some trouble in akore. The Swede "kid team" however, has shown it. self a competent combination by its defeat of the Bethany five and its wonderful stand against the cham pion South church.

 Meriden s, Wallingford [.
 Fred Jean and his tribe of Hart ford Indians got sweet revenge on the New Britain roller hockey team in Hartford last night when they pinned a { to 2 defeat on the Hard ware City quintet to pay up for the victory scored by New Britain in the game played here Thursday night The setback coupled with a victory by Meriden over Wallingford. has put New Britain back in second place.
 It was the play of Fred Jean more than anything else that enabled his mates to get through the powerful New Britain defense while the vet- eran center interrupted the smooth tean, work of tho local forwards, Boucher and Alexander. Welch and St. Aubin kept going at top speed during the entire game and their work forced Bill Blount to turn in a great exhibition of goal tending.
 St. Aubin started the scoring after two and q half minutes of lighting when he took a rebound of Blount's shin pads and scooped 1t in. Ten minutes later Alexander evened the count. Welch and St Aubin scored in the second period and Alexander got another. Welch was the only one to score in tho final period.
 "Bib" Boucher. owing to his in- 1ured shoulder received here last Monday night. had to retire from the game in the third period and Eddie McAloon took his place.
