California and Yale Alone Have
 Good and Tried Key Men

New York. April 3 Pp-The supply of capable stroke oarsmcn. never abundant. is decidedly insufficient this year to cover the needs of the country's twelve crews Of colleG4 oarsmen as they prepare for the opening of a busy season with the California Washington race on the Oakland estuary. April 13.
 California's world champion Bear, in the west and Yale's smooth boat load in the east alone are blessed with key oarsmen whose sustained and brilliant pace-setting through out at least a season of varsity cam- paigning has given them a place among the super strokes of rowing history.

Westfed Boxers to Invade This City in Search of Anna teur Fight Laurels-Reeves to Swap Punches With Wallie Krass - Sunny Boy Hayden to Battle St. John in Return Bout-"Cyclone" Jones, Commer. cial Street Wildman, to Make His Second Appear ance.

Teams of amateur fighters from Westfeld. Holyoke. East Hampton. Meriden, Bristol and this city, fea- turing the pick of boxers in each of the weight classes, will furnish the entertainment for the boxing fans oi this city at the Stanley Arena Friday evening when the Stanley A. c. pre- sents another of it's popular amateur fight tournaments.
 Wally O'Bricn of Westfield, and Dominick Frisco of this city will clash in the main bout of the eve, ming over the three round route and in the l22 pound class. O'Brien. it will be remembered. appeared here earlier in the season and gave the local boy the hardest go he has had since he first boxed in public.
 Since then. the Bay State boy has improved in wonderful style and he feels fit to take the local boy into camp. Frisco has had an uninter- ruptcd run Of victories over oppo- nents of all sorts in the past two months. He topped his record with o fi'NNAy WI tilc oldlS weight champion a week ago last Monday night. In meeting OBrien. he will be swapping punches with one of his toughest opponents.
 The seni-final will see Billy Reeves of Bristol. well known dusky bearcat. matched with Waffle krass of Westfcld. This will be Reeves first fipbt Sinrn ha 1 cut over his eye in bout here two weeks ago Monday. krass is no stranger to New Britain fight goers. He has appeared here twice and has Leen very impressive in his bouts
 Another feature on the card being pre pared by Matchmaker c. r. Wag- her, is a return bout between Sunny st. John Of Holyoke. These two met here a week ago last Monday night and Hayden won a close victory through superior work in the third round. St. John has been anxious 10 meet the Bristol fre-eater since hat time and his opportunity will be presented Friday night.
 Chick O'Ddy of Meridon. one Of inc Silver City's best junior light weights, will make his debut before New Britain audience in one Of the bouts on the card when he stacks mp against either Jackie Basile ot Bristol or Zeke Taylor of Westtield. The chance of getting Taylor to come 10 this city this week. appears to be slight but if he is not avail. able, Basile will take his place.
 "Cyclone' Jones, the Commercial street Wildman, who scored knock out in two rounds in his maiden scrap here two weeks ago, will again don the padded mitts. this time

 Games Tonight Tonight will be an intermediate
 night at the Arena. with four games in this class scheduled. They will be played with alternating halves. the first half of the second game fol-
 lowing that of the first and then the two second halves. This will enable
 all four to be run off in one evening. The Arrows and Dublins will play
 at 7:30 o'clock, and little can be predicted. as both teams are dark
 horses. About 8 o'clock the Kensing- ton Boys club will face the Eagles. The latter team is fast crew and hopes to go far in the tournament, but kensington is in bad fix, it's

 After these two games have been played the Phantom Reserves are
 scheduled to face the Outlaws. The

Matching Mcdonald against the doughty Donlan the Pa- cific coast classic d week from Sat- urday will provide an interesting duel of stroking and generalship as we'll as giving the east advance warning as to which of the far west this year. Usually both are threats.
 Of the other nine sea-going col Ieges. Harvard and Columbia have suffered most by loss of experienced strokes. Coach Ed Brown at Harv- ard is testing quantity of con- paratively green material for the post left vacant by the graduation of Captain Jack Watts. one of the best of last seasons strokes.
 An even harder place to fill is that vacated by Eric I>ambart in the Columbia shell. Lambart. a human automaton and a great competitor. failed 10 return to college after he was barred from the Olympic trials on the gound he was not an Ameri- can citizen. Al Macbain, a raWboned fighter who stroked in his place on that occasion on less than a days notice, Is setting the stroke this sea- son.
 By heritage and tradition, Young Jack Eddy scion. of a great rowing family which sent two brothers be- fore him from Saratoga, N. Y, to fame at the Naval Academy, seemed destined to gain a monopoly on the stroke job at Annapolis but in the last few drills he has not only been dislodged but denoted to the junior varsity. S. c. Strong. the lad who gave him a fight for the stroke job all last season, has replaced him.

Two wonder baskets by Batogow- ski and a shot by Mahoney in the last 30 seconds of play enabled the Columbia Juniors to come from be- hind and defeat the Yellow Jackets by 19-l7 in a wild story-book tin- ish. Cianci gave the losers 50 lead in the first period and R. Smith kept them ahead at 1l-7 at half time. The third quarter was evenly fought. and so was the final one until, with three minutes left. the Yellow Jackets took time out with the tally l1-13 in their favor.
 The rest seemed to have the best effect on their opponents. for q min- ute later BatogoWski flung in long push-up shot while travelling at full speed near the center of the floor And within another minute, from a milling pile of players. he duplicat- ed this feat and knotted the count Then. with the game fast drawing to q close.

Speaking s p of s porte

Chancs that New Britain and the Bristol Endees would engage in an- other basketball game were relegat ed to the ash heap last night when at a conference between the two managers, Joe Carroll of Bristol re- fused to play any further. claiming that his team had won the state championship last Saturday when it defeated New Britain.
 Manager Lanpher stated today that he was satisfied to allow the Bristol Endees to claim the cham rionship because as far as the aver ages for the season go, Bristol has a point advantage that cannot be questioned. He said that he would crack at the Endees.
 The basketball public. in this city at least. wasn't anxious 10 see New Britain and Bristol play again. The majority of the fans felt that the game last Saturday showed that the New Britain team was inferior to Bristol. On the surface of things Bristol was by far the better team on the floor and we believe that Manager Carroll is right in claiming the championship.
 Manager Lanpher is negotiating for the appearance of the Chicago team of the American Basketball league here next Saturday night. The local basketball season probably wilt not close for a couple of weeks yet. He is also planning to arrange an- other appearance of the Palisades club of New York, composed of for
 The board of governors will mee; players. before the season closes. This team defeated New Britain here week ago Saturday by a 50 to oS score.
 These should make two good at fractions as the last games Of the season.
 McLlWain, who starred with New Britain at the beginning of the pres eat season, will most probably be seen in New Britain uniform here Saturday night. Manager Lanphei has high hopes of retaining him iot next season. It IS expected that sev- ,ral other changes will be made in the playing personnel on the local club.
 That there was something wrong rear the end of the season and Tn the earlier slump. was very evident. A team that can go through the op- position like New Britain did at times, never goes as bad as the To- cals did in the final game with Brls- tol.
 Of course, the local managers plans will await the opening Of an- other askctball season before they materialze.

 The Washington Columbus Five set what is believed to be New Britain record when they blanked the Dixie Speedboys by 5O-o in a game which was merely shooting practice for the winners. The los ing team did not have more than two shots at the hoop and was on the short end Of the score from the moment Hubay counted on the one two play at the first tap. The Wash ington- Columbus outfit ran up 14 points in the first quarter, 13 in the second, and 20 in the third, then coasted.
