DE MOLAY QUINTET
 BEATS WEST HAVEN
Scores Fifth Victory in State
 Basketball Circuit

New Britain took the lead in the State DeMolaT basketball leagEc Saturday night when the Nathan Hale chapter team smearcd the pre- Niously Cndefcatcd West Haven quintet by t 43-23 count in a game Ut the local Y. NJ. C. A. The victory Was the locals fifth in fiTe tries and gave them d rather commanding lead, although Bridgeport, with two victories, still has to be beaten. New Britain will get its chance 10 turn this trick when it goes to Bridgeport next week, probably OH January s or 2.
 The home team jumped right into the lead and ran up such a total that the West Haven quest Was hopeless after the first few minutes. For the whole first half New Brit ain played practically perfect bas- ketball and West Haven was un- able to penetrate its defense for q single field goal. Slincy got two fouls near the end and the half ended with New Britain in front by -S-2. West Haven got going against an almost entirely new New Britain team in the second half and out scored 1t for the period, but it coulI not come within reaching distance.

 COSTS CITIZENSHIP
Candidate Deprived Of Natural
 iZation by Trip Abroad

Because he took vacation last summer, citizenship papers issued 10 Antonio CantananM of this city have been cancelled by. order Of United States Commissioner Charles l.. Mclaughlin. Nr. McLauebIin has dropped charge of perjury which he was about to bring against Cantananzi before the l.. $. district court.
 When he obtained his citizenship papers Cantananzi alleged that he had not returned to his native country, Italy, within five years. the allegation being that he had made his last trip there in 1921. He came to this country in 1909 but returned to Italy and entered the Italian army in 1914. He was married in Italy and came here again in 192u leaving q wife and two children in Italy. In 1921 he returned 10 Italy and remained there for two years. again returning 10 the United States in 192&.
 Last summer iJo took q short Va cation again. going 10 his native land. In the meantime his naturali- Hation papers had been made out and forwarded 10 him. He noticed that a third child had not been credited on the records. In the act of correcting the error it WIS learned that he had not lived in this country for five consecutive years.
 Inspector Mclaughlin held a hearing Saturday and ruled that CantananZi had taken vacation believing himself to be d citizen. He ruled that there was no probable cause for holding him on charge of perjury but ordered the naturaliza- ton papers cancelled.

Local Basketball Team 10 Rattle Loyola Quintet at East Main
 Street Gym.
Boys Club

The Loyola Boys club quintet defending amateur basketball cham pionS of New Haven. will meet the New Britain Boys club five this evening in the latter teams final home stand of 1929. The visitors are believed to have one of the strongest quintets which has ap- peared here this season, and plenty of trouble IS expected by Captain Tony kercleJza and his men. The lineup of the Loyola club is stud dcd with factory and New Haven and New York Boys club stars, and IL proved It's caliber last year by winning the "Y' tournament for the city amateur title. This season lt has been c&rrymg on against teams ell over this section of the country and it expects to add New Britain to its list of victims.
 New Britain will probably rely Cpon it's new combination, with Grusha pairing off with Hembrowsk; or Kcrclc iza as forwards and either the last named or Goffa jumping center. This lineup has proved the strongest, offensively, of any yc- tried by Coach Ray Anderson, and 1t will probably have another sc we're test this evening. Conn pagnone and Paluch will take care Of he back court, for BcnjaHin's les is still ailing.
 In the preliminary contest the Boys club Reserves will meet an other of their traditional rivals, the South Church Reserves. with the latter seeking to break the iinA which has shaGoWcd them for Gcvcr- al years when playing against the club. Dancing will follow the games.

Up Training.

CHICAGO, March Is. - Tommy
Loughran today completed the rigor-
GUS part of training for the fight
Thursday night in which he will de-
fend his light heavyweight cham
pionship against Mickey Walker,
middleweight titleholder.
Loughran, after experiencing
trouble in making the required ITS
pound weight limit, now is down to
the desired weight and VII content
himself with lighter exercises the
next two days.
The odds on the fight shifted sur
prisingly today. Loughran previously
had been quoted at Us, but today
the odds dropped to even money
and there was more Walker than
Loughran money.
Walker probably is in the best
condition of his life. He has shown
extremely well in training and his
hackers believe he will knock out
the light heavyweight champion.
Loughran, admittedly j the bet
ter boxer, but Walker followers
think Mickey can penetrate the
champions defense for a haymaker
which would make Walker the only
man to hold three titles since the
days of Bob Fitzsimmons. Walker
