.BURR|TTS DEFEAT
 HARTFORD OUTFIT
Local Basketball Team Con-
 tinueS on Its Winning Ways

Meeting unexpected opposition ot the strongest sort, the Burrltt basketball team barely noscd out the pastimc A. C. quintet of Hart ford in the preliminary game stag cd at the Stanley Arena Saturday night. The Hartford club, of which Bat Battalina, worlds feathorWcight iistic champion is q member, al though not a basketball player, threw a memorable scare into the ranks of the local quintet by its flashy play and it's tight defense.
 Although tEere was a minimum Of scoring in the first two quarters. play was by no means slow. Both teams had difficulty in putting the ball through the hoop although there were plenty of close shots during the sessions,
 Six points were made by the two quintcts in the first period and the score was tied at 3-all as the sec more in this frame, a field basket by IakubowiCZ and a foul shot by Carlson but the Capital City crew got four, a field basket and two fouls, to give it q slight edge of one point, to at half time.
 The lead kept alternating with first ono team ahead and then the other in the third quarter and when it was half over, the teams were again dcadlockcd at 11-all. Here. DarroW put the Burritts in the lead through nifty long shot and Yaku- bowicz added q foul point to leave the locals in the lead Is to r as the fourth and final session opened.
 Desperately trying to hold onto their slim lead, the Burritts man. aged 10 do enough damage in the last frame 10 keep out in front. This left the Burritts the yictors by the score of 22 10 16.
 1akubowicz led the scorers with il points while DiNoccnza scored nine for his club. DiNoconza kept his team in the running in the first half with six points of the seven scored by his steam.
 At times, the Burritts were play ing q disorranizcd brand of ball. There appeared to be q hit of feel ing among the ranks with certain players refusing 10 pass the ball to others clcctinG instead, to try wild and weird shots at the hoop that were going wide of inc mark. This spells disintcgration of any basket ball team and if it continues, the Burritts arc on the road to doom, The summary:

SOUTHPAWS ARE SCARCE
Jim TauIl>ncr's Holdout Campaign is Greatly Strengthened By Lack of Left Flanders.

Clearwater, Fla, Feb. 2f tPt-1'he notorious scarcity of left handed pitchers in the ranks of the Brook lyn Dodgers seems to be the big mo- tive back of the holdout of Jim Faulkner southpaw, drafter from Buffalo last fall.
 Faulkner, according to club offi- Cials, seeks q salary of about $l@,Qo0, q big price even for first rate cX- poricnccd pitchers. The only Dodgcr pitcher who will get more than that is Dazzy Vance with his $20,0"9 contract. William Watson Clark, who with the aling Jim Elliott, forms the lcft-handed department Of the pitching staff, is getting only $lo,000 q year.
 If Faulkner doesn't modify his demands quickly the club plans to send him back 10 Buffalo.

VITAL GAMESlEFT
 IN COUNTY LEAGUE
Mapping to Meet South Church
 Here Thursday Night

Only two weeks of play are left in the Senior County Y. M. (. A. basketball league, but six of the most important games on the schcd- ulc remain to be played and it looks as If the three -cornercd struggle for first place will be car rlcd on right up to the final night of play, which will come on March s. At least one major game will be disposed Of this week when the Wrapping Y. M. C. A., which has won all games played but which has played only six and evidenced rcluct- ance 10 meet it's strong opponents on the road, appears in this city on Thursday night to do battle with the South Church quintet. Mapping had q good night and defeated the locals in it's own hall, but New Brit ain is confident that on the big Boys Club floor it will turn the ta- bles and hand the league leaders q terrific larruping. If it succeeds, it will drop Mapping to third place and go into a tic with Plainvillc for first position, but if it fails it can hold only q feeble hope of going into deadlock for the lead through a fortunate series Of wins anI losses for it's rivals.
 New Britain is scheduled to meet Plainvillc here this week but, at the request of the visiting management, the contest has been postponed un- til March S, kcnsington may play here on Wednesday night, but the game has not vet been definitely settled. Southington, which has long been idle, is due in Highland Park during the week, while Haz- ardvillc is scheduled to appear in kcnsington.
 Mapping has no regularly schcd- ulCd game for this week, so it may he able to play off some of the numerous postponed contests it has left. This team has displayed re- nlarkable unwillingness to leave it's home floor. The locals had d great deal of trouble before they coulI arrange to bring Mapping here this week, and the up-statcrs also passed up their game with Southington last week. Plairvillc has also reported difficulty with Mapping, and K. E. Parker, league manager, has order ed the leaders to play off their games with Plainvillc and Southing- ton by March s or forfeit them. Intermediate League
 Only two games in the lntcrmcdi- ate league are scheduled for the coming week, Tho WhippetS, who have disposed of their nearest rival and have only to keep winning against tho weaker teams in order to capture the title, are booked to go to Mapping, This game is ex- pcctcd to be a hard one, for the contest between the teams here re- suited in a frec-for- all battle after the Whippets had scored a victory. The First Baptists are scheduled to play in Southington. kensington and the South Church have no games listed. The standing:

In q roller hockey game at ,E1 Stanley Arena yesterday afternoon that was as bitterly fought as any the fact that it was the final game of the league season and had 70 bearing on the championship, the New Britain Planters defeated th3 Meriden Indians by the slight edge of : 10 6. A snap drive by Arth4r (kid) Williams, local scoring ace, in the last minute of the final pcc- iod, shattered d to tie and gave Now Britain it's victory.
