Sat- urday night and kept their hold on first place in the Inter-Church lea que. The game was . thriller from start to finish, and both teams threw all their energies into the play. for it had highly important bearing on the pennant race. The swede victory gave that team . decided edge in the struggle, while the St. Matts were practically eliminated by their defeat.
 The swedes took the lead at the start but were closely pressed throughout the game. "Oskie" Erickson and Anderson accounted for four points apiece in tho first half and kept the First Lutherans in front by q bare 11-1o. Swanson made 1t 1?-10 as the second half opened and then, as the score went to 14-10, the two teams began to alternate in scoring. The St. Matts would creep to within two points of their opponents. only to have the Swedes edge away again to four points, and this sort of thing kept up all the way to the end.
 Erickson and Anderson starred for the swedes, Billy Preisser doing a good job at holding Swanson. the leagues leading scorer. in check. Billy also topped his teams attack with two long shots and foul, while klopp played we'll in the second half. Nyborg and Erickson held the St. Matt forwards without point from the floor. Confined to the foul-line. however, Reckert and "Goody" Preisser did some accurate tossing from there. The summary:

"Kid" Williams, first rush on the New Britain roller hockey team. had a field day at the expense Of the Providence combination yesterday. He caged 10 goals in New Britains II to 5 victory over the Rhode ls- land crew. He was driving at the top of his form and despite the frantic efforts Of the Providence de- fense men to stop him. Williams drove, hooked and slipped goals by Jette so fast that the score keeper could hardly keep up with him.
 The Providence team arrived on the floor with an impressive look ing quintet. Wild Bilr' Duggan was paired up with "Jigger" Higgins on the rush line and a nervous an- ,cipation was sensed as the fans sot ready for the battle.
 When the game got under way Higgins or Duggan was unable 10 do . thing against the tight de- fense network thrown up by Barney Doherty and Pete Gazzinga. These two played like demons a8alhst the fast Providence rushers.
 On the floor, Cowboy Thompson played the leading role for the home club. With his lanky stride and his lonx reach, the local second rush was everywhere on the floor. He showed speed a-plenty and formed a perfect playing partner for Will Hams. Pete Welch put in the best performance of the season in the cage. He was spectacular on every shot that rot by the center and halfback and saved New Britain on various occasions
 Duggan played the stellar role for the visitors but he WAS unable to do much against Doherty.
 This victory brings New Britain closer to Albany as the Empire State team split a double header with Fall River. Albany plays here Thursday night and this should prove to be one of the banner con. tests of the season. The summary: Naw Rr;tain Providence
