CELTIC FIVE TO MEET
 SONS OF ITALY TEAM
Right Guard

After two setbacks in as many weeks, the Celtics will endeavor to get into the win column this evening at the Sacred Heart gymnasium when they lock horns with the Sons of Italy whose lineup includes some of the best junior basketball talent in this city.
 At forwards for the Sons of Italy will be Mick" Gill and Stanley Arena. The former plays with the Burritts and the Stanley Rule team of the Industrial league and the lat ter wears the uniform Of the New Britain Machine quintet. Both of these players are high up in the scoring column of the league and ho doubt will give the Celtic guards plenty of trouble. Armenia, the pivot man of the Sons. is q new conner in local basketball circles but his height and shooting ability will add much to the Sons Of Italy off, fense. At left guard will be Mickey Bucheri. Nothing can be said of Mickey" as a played as he is well known 10 local fandom by his play I ing with the Landers team of the Dusty league. "Pippy" Augustine will hold down the other guarding berth. He is paired up with Arena on the Newmatic quintet.
 1 Against this fine array Of basket. eers, Manager Zeyin will send in his first string lineup which includes Chick" Baylock and Frank Zaleski forwards, Two point" Adams. cen. ter, and Pete Hubay and Roscoe Flips in the back court. The game will get under way at 9 o'clock pre-. ceded by preliminary between the Phantom Reserves and the Celtic juniors.

BEDTIME STORIES By :: T RHSG4sSl

Little Mrs. Peter did the same thing.
But she didn't dodge in the same direc-
ton as Peter. She lodged in the oppo-
site direction. This was very clever. It
made confusion. BowSer was in doubt
which way to turn. And so was Flip.
They didn't know which one 70 chase
This gave chance for Peter and little
Mrs. Peter to gain. Both Bowsef and
Flip turned toward Peter. This gave
little Mrs. Peter chance and she made
the most of it. How she did run, lip
perty-lipperty-lip She reached an en-
trance to one of the little paths into
the dear Old Briar-patch and In she
popped. She was safe. Then she turned
to see where Peter was.
She saw Peters white tail flashing In
the sun and Peter was running as only
he can run when he has to. Behind
him was racing Flip. The little black
and-white dog certainly was travelling
He was gaining on Peter. Behind Flip
came Bowser the Hound with his nose
to the ground, for that is the way he
loves to run when following trail, and
telling the whole world what he is
doing.
"Oh dear!" whimpered little Mrs.
Peter. He'll catch Peter! He'll surely
cat" It did lido look as if Flip would catch
Peter, but just then Peter lodged. He
changed his direction abruptly and
now he was headed straight toward
the dear Old Briar- patch. Flip was run
ming so fast that he couldn't slow down
to make the turn as quickly as Peter
did. So he over-ran: that is, he ran
quite little distance beyond the point
where Peter made his turn. Then he
managed to turn and start for Peter
again. Once more he was almost up to
Peter. They were close to the dear Old
Briar-patch this time. Once more Peter
lodged. This time Flip couldn't stop
himself before he crashed right into
the brambles. How he did yelp! BY the
time he had backed out Peter was safe
in the dear Old Briar-patch. 1t was
narrow escape. But then, as Peter says,
AN escape is an escape" so what does
1t matter how narrow it was?

Narrow Escape.
Lessons taught by dangers past,
Should, but do not always. last,


Peter Rabbit and little Mrs. Peter
were in a tight place. Bowser the Hound
was coming around one end of the dear
Old Briar- patch and Flip the Terrier
around the other end. Thus, Peter and
Mrs. Peter were between the two and
right at that particular place there was
no handy little path into the dear Old
Briar- patch Instead, there was very
thick and close growth of brambles. 1t
certainly looked bad TO rPeter and Mrs.
Peter.
Peter knew that the one to fear most
was Flip. He knew that Flip was very.
very much quicker than BowSer. 1t
would be easier to dodge BoWser than
it would be to dodge Flip. He signaled
little Mrs. Peter to follow him and
started toward Bowser. Little Mrs.
Peter was right at Peters heels. Peter
began to circle out SO as TO go around
Bowser Bowser saw this and changed
his direction. BowSer'S big voice was
ringing across the Green Meadows. Flip
was coming just as fast as he could
run and that was very fast indeed.
Peter and little Mrs. Peter, watching
Flip by rolling their eyes back as they
ran, both realized that Flip was the real
danger If they could once get past
BoWser they could make for the near
est entrance to one of Peters little
paths through the briars.
II hope Fuzzy" as Peter calls little
Mrs Peter, will dodge the opposite way
from the way 1 dodge when it comes
time" thought Peter. But there was no
way of telling her this.
It looked as If Peter was going tc
run right into Bowser's mouth. Right
at Peters heels was little Mrs. Peter.
Behind them was coming Flip and he
certainly was coming fast. Now, if there
is one thing that Peter can do better
than another, it is to dodge. When run
ming at full speed he can change his
direction as few others can. He did this
now. He suddenly shot off to one side
