the Hartford High basketball team, the New Britain High team Subdued their foes yesterday afternoon by the score of g 10 25 at the Hopkins street gym in Hartford. The score does not indicate the wide margin of difference between the two teams as the Cassidymen took things q lit tic easier during the second half once they had things well in hand.
 It can be truthfully said that no one man stood out for New Britain, as the team paSswork functioncd per fectly and the scoring was well dis tributed among the New Rritainitcs Playing his last game for New Brit ain against q regular foe, Billy Ross played the best game that he has played this season.

Schmarr scored seven points and Llpman was particularly strong on the defense. Bob Mautner, Coach CaSsidN's new found center. continued his good play. Mautner seems to have the knaCk of being under the basket on follow ups at the correct time. He put in three shots of that kind. He has done the same in other games Johnnie Franks also played high class game, scoring two baskets and three foul shots.
 Mautncr opened the game with a foul shot at the thirty second mark and another foul shot by Bill Ross made the score 20. Hartford took time out to fry and get recognized.

With five minutes and thirty seconds Of the first quarter played, Hartford got its first point a basket by Kenny. He followed this with Il foul shot 10 make the score 7-5 as the quarter ended. Hartford was having great difficult in hang ing on to the ball, with wild hcavcS and loose passes being the rule.
