NEW BRITAIN TO BATTLE
 ALBANY HOCKEY OUTFIT
League Leading Teams to Clash in New York Capital City-Games This Week Will Decide First Place for the Season-Nesmen Play Return Game Here Thursday Night-Locals Have Slight Edge at the Present Tme-Players Confident.
No Games Last Night STANDINGS

With the end of the playing sea. son only a few days away, the New Britain Roller Hockey team faces a desperate grind in it's last few re- maining games. Tonight the team goes to Albany where it will meet its most consistent and dangerous contender for first honors.
 New Britain, weakened by the in- jury to Barney Doherty. is below standard in it's play and Albany looms as a big threat to the drive of the locals for first place. It was rumored about last night that Man ager McDonough had secured a player to play in the lineup in place of Doherty, but the manager could not be reache1 today.
 Tonight's game will be a battle between the two high notch clubs anxious to win and Albany. because of the many drubbings handed the team in this city. is anxious to square itself in the percentage column.
 The Empire State team will have its regular lineup with Steve and Earl Pierce on the rush line. Lunde- vile at center. Morrison at halfback and Barnikow in goal.
 New Britain will probably start Kid" Williams and Peregrin on the rush line. Thompson at center. Gazzinga at halfback and Welch in the goal.
 Albany comes here for return engagement at the Stanley Arena Thursday night. Owing to the fact that this will be New Britain's sec ond last home game before the start of the championship series. plenty of interest is being displayed in the battle.

New Britain herald., 1929-02-26

The big game was a farce. the visitors proving of poor caliber. scrambling was wild at times, and Referee Jack Tobin looked quite worn out when he left the floor at the end of the game. We imagine this was from the strain of keeping q straight face.
New Britain herald., 1929-02-26

Boucher, center on the Fall River club, will probably be signed for the series with New Britain to take the place of Barney Doherty. Boucher will play either rush or center with Pete Gazzinga at halfback. This will give New Bitain g dangerous scoring combination on the front end and a tough defensive crew in the back court.
 Pete Welch has become 8 real ice cream fiend. He ate six plates Of it last night and all but cleaned out the stock in Charlie's Grill. Pete started telling the boys last night that he used to be fighter and was knocked out by Jack Renault, the Canadian heavyweight.
 The Boys club teams underwent a shake-up last night and the re- suits were satisfactory in the ex- treme. Boukus and Rametta were dropped hack to the Reserves and their places on the first team taken by Zembrowski and Rakutis.
 Rametta and Boukus promptly proceeded to score 24 points be- tween them in the preliminary game. Whereat, not to be outdone, Zembrowski and Rakutis made 27 in the main contest. The transfers seemed to wake up all four players.
 4 group of "rooters" Cor maybe we should say "hooters'D gathered in one corner of the club sym and kept up steady cheers for the club players, the visitors. the referee, the scorers. numbers of the spectators. and everyone else they could think of.

 Louis Kid Kaplan. former feather weight champion of the world, squares off with Freddie Mueller, the famed Buffalo lightweight, in the feature tilt on the card to be staged tonight at the New Haven Arena. Kaplan and Mueller are rated on even terms for the fight, mainly be- cause Kaplan is the favored son of Connecticut. The odds, by g margin of 10 to g, should favor Mueller to win for he has been busy boxer of late and his record as light weight overshadows that of the Bug Saw.
 Mueller's victory over Ray Miller. Chicago knockout artist. stamps him as capable leather pWher and Kid Kaplan has been very careful to get into tip top shape for the meeting. The Kid promises to be a buster boxer tonight, buster than ever, but then he will have to be to do any, thing with the alert and ever-ready Mueller. Knockouts are not exactly in Mueller's line. although he has scored some during his term in the ring. but he has habit of com- pletely demoralizing the opposition with hts steady rain of punches. Mueller and Kaplan are backed up by strong card, scheduled to get under way at s:30 sharp, and 2S rounds make up the supporting pro- gram.
 Georgie Day. moving toward the promised bout with Eddie Elkins, will meet Clyde Jones, Jersey City protege of Johnny Shugrue in the semi-tlnal of eight rounds. This pair have met before at Bridgeport, with Day eking out close decis- ion after eight rounds. Another eight rounder, special bout, shows the sensational bantam weight of New London, Hughie Dev- lin. paired off with Oscar Goldman. of New York. It looks like busy evening for Goldman. Devlin was rated with the country's leading ban tams by the late Tex Rickard and the famous promoter made no mis- take for if ever a boxer had fine prospects 1t is Devlin. He Is a mar vel at boxing and carries a sharp punch in both fists. The light heavies creep into the picture in the second listing, Frankie Hush, of Manchester, meeting the newest find from Italy. Amedeo Grilio. This pair are slated to go six rounds although the general feel ing is that the bout will end long before that time. Bush is the fav- orite to win by knockout. In the opening bout of six rounds, Frankie Marino, hard hitting New Haven youth, again meets Tommy Duggan. of New London. Duggan proved to be tough customer in recent meeting with Marine and did much damage to the Elm City youth although the loser by a close decision.
