LOCALS GETTING SET FOR BRISTOL
New Britain Basketball Quintet
 Meets Endees Saturday

Faced with the prospect of carry ing off the state basketball cham pionship for the third successive time, the New Britain basketball team is getting ready for it's final game in the series with the Bristol Endees. This battle will take place next Saturday night at the Stanley Arena before one of the largest crowds of fans on record here.
 Meriden has been eliminated from the state title race and this has been made doubly sure by the fact that Jack Curry has given up all claim to state honors. This leaves New Britain and Bristol in the field alone.
 At the present time, New Britain stands one game up on Bristol in the present series but Bristol stands with three wins to two for New Britain in the five games played this season. Saturday nights game. if won by New Britain. will give the locals clear claim to the title be- cause of the fact that New Britain had already eliminated Meriden.
 Managers Clarence Lanpher and Joe Carroll of New Britain and Bristol respectively. met yesterday at the Stanley Hotel and made final arrangements for the game. Neither team will take on any ringers" for the contest but will face their fate with the lineups that have been in action in the series.
 New Britain stands the favorite in the game although Bristol packers are depending on their quintet to spring an upset here Saturday. Bris- tol won from New Britain on the local floor and the Bell Towners feel confident that they can dupli- cate this feat Bristol took New Britain into camp first on New Years day in this city. New Britain returned the compliment by taking victory at night in Bristol. Subse- quently, Bristol took two games in a week from New Britain winning here and in Bristol. A couple of weeks ago. New Britain, strengthen cd by the addition of Frank Dougherty, defeated Bristol co to 16 in Bristol.
 The outlook for Saturday night is that there will be terrific fight on tap in this city.
 Bristol will have Jimmy Cullom and Jimmy Picken as forwards. Sid Richman as center and Eichtmyer and Waterman as guards with Man. ming, Marchinek. Malcolm and Car ney in reserve. New Britain will have Sloman and Zakzcwski as for wards. Donoghue at center and Arburr and Dougherty as guards. The local reserve force will consist of Leary. Sheehan. Hoist and Restelli.
 Gus Winters Of Springfield has been named as the referee.

PHILLIPS NOT HITTING
Manager ShottOn Believes There is
 Some Reason Why His Team
 Should Be Called silent.

Winter Haven. Fla. March o6.- (P-Base hits have been so few and far between recently that Manager Shotton is about ready to admit there is some justification in calling his team the silent Philles. The pitching staff has improved during the last week. but in the last four games the Philles have uncovered a batting slump.
 When it isn't one thing in base ball it's another Shotton said. We've been wailing about out pitching al. spring, but now that is coming around all right we can't hit a ball out of the infield.'
 shotton. however. says there are a half dozen good clubbers with the Phillies and he is confident all of them will hit when the season opens.

 The regular pitchers are going none too well. the makeup of the infield still is uncertain, and on top of that George Earnshaw, right handed pitcher, still is in Ho! Springs undergoing treatment for an injured back and will remain there indefinitely.
 Joe Boley. regular shortstop, is still unable to throw to first base because of sore arm. Hessler will fill in at short. The indications are that Orwoll will start the season at first. Bishop wilt be at second. Foxx. Dykes and Hale will fight it out for the third base job.

Oldest Christian Symbol

The fish is considered the Oldest
symbol of Christianity. When the
pagans became Christians they
were afraid of being prosecuted
and put to death by those who still
believed in pagan gods; so they
invented a secret sign, giving it
the form of a fish. When they
wanted to make their new belief
known to each other and wanted
to find out whether the man with
whom they associated was pagan
or Christian, they drew the sign
Of the fish in the sand, and If the
person responded in the same way,
they felt secure to speak of their
new faith.

Elderly persons live longer, &C
cording to some authorities, If they
are thin. 1t is believed that young
people will do better If they are
slightly overweight. This gives a
reserve of internal food to draw

are more frequent in the young.
National health would benefit If

plump and old people determined
