ABUSIVE LANGUAGE COSTS
 MERlDEN TEAM THE GAME
Technical Foul Called by Referee Abe Aronson Gives Burritts Victory Over Community Five - Contest h Part of Benefit Program for Fred Saunders- Score Is 23-Au When Violation Occurs -"Hammy" Darrow Scores Winning Point.

Actions speak louder than words was an axiom clearly proved in tho Burritt- Meriden Community basket, ball game last night at the Stanley Arena when Referee Abe Aronson was forced to call a technical foul on the Meriden team when players used abusive language towards him The fate of the entire New Britain cause was delivered into the handa of "Hammy" Darrow and he came through with . foul shot and won the game for the Burritts 24 to a within seconds of the final whistle, This was part of the beneft contest staged for Fred Saunders.
 At the time of the ''untimely'' words the score was tied at 23-all in . most thrilling battle. Both teams are leaders in the race for the state junior court title and as q result of the victory the Burritts are tied at one-all in wins and loses with the Community team.
 A loud protest followed Referee Aronson's decision and mmediately members of the Meriden team, root 'ers and managers, crowded about him demanding that he retract his decision. According to information the referee ruled that Neriden had touched the ball before 1t had gone outside and he gave 1t to New Brit. ain. Immediately after he announc. ed his decision four Meriden play. CTS used objectional language and he called technical foul. When one player followed with . second remark he called two technical fouls but after the group had gone inte . huddle with the referee and others he changed his decision and made it one foul.
 After Darrow made the try good the New Britain team held the ball as much as possible and the game finally ended with the Burritt team on top.
 The contest was exciting from the start. Andy Yakubowicz popped one in from the left side of the court, seconds after the game started but after four minutes and a half Of play Shulga tied the score at Fall. A minute later Meriden went into the lead but in less than two minutes it reverted back to New Britain when Joe Luty made short shot. On two perfect passes from "Hammy" Dar- row, Yakubowicz scored twice and with points scored by Havlick New xN before the end of the quarter Shulga made it l2 to 6. The regular Bur ritt team of Luty. center: Havlick and Yakubowicz, forwards, and Dar- row and Carlson, guards, played during this period.
 At the start of the second quarter Manager Saunders sent in Hank" Arburr and Joe Luke at guard and center of the Corbin Screw team.

that confidence strikes at the root Of
our civil life"
DR.. Lowell drew parallel between
the history of the reconstruction laws
imposed upon the South following the
Civil War and the eighteenth amend
ment, which. he said, the World War
enabled minority to carry into effect.
Reconstruction Analogy.
Describing the unfortunate effects OF
the reconstruction laws, he pointed out
that President Hayes decided to with
draw those laws. although TO enforce
them was his clear constitutional obli-
CATION.
AS with the reconstruction laws, a
vigorous dislike of the prohibition pol
icy lis making the practical enforce
ment Of the law difficult, If not impoS-
sible" DR.. Lowell continued.
THAT the prohibitionists who urged
the passage of the eighteenth amend
ment were actuated by the highest
moral purpose no one has right to
doubt: that there was real evil to
combat is not less certain. There Is
almost no desire to restore the open
saloon. but the question is whether in
the enthusiasm for Suppressing drunk
enness they went. like the advocates of
reconstruction, too far, and thereby i'm
perilled the object in view"
The people who refuse to break the
law become fewer and fewer year by
year, he asserted There is no reason
to suppose that the national admins
tration has been Intentionally lax, but
1t is doubtful whether sumptuary laws
can ever be enforced against the resist
ance of any large minority.
No Use for Abuse Seen.
MANY excellent people," he said,
"believe that drinking any intoxicallt,
even to an extent that does not in
toxicate, is inherently immoral; but
that is very far from a general opin-
ion and large part of those who do
not hold it feel that interference with
their personally innocent habits is not
justified by claim of benefit to the
public of which they are not convinced
Whether this attitude is right or wrong,
1t is fact that must be taken into ac-
count in considering the possibility of
enforcing universal prohibition. There
is little use in abusing those who OPP
pose the law. EpithetS do not alter
facts"
Declaring that 1t Is almost mathe-
matically denonstrable that the pres
ent practice of proceeding against boot
leggers alone cannot be effective be-
cause the profit increases with the risk,
he said that for the same reason it
seems highly improbable that block
ade against the importation of liquor
into the country can be made effective.
