New Britain herald., 1930-03-03

Outplayed from start to finish, the New Britain PanIhcrs lost their third straight game in the roller hockey playoir series to the Albany Lawmakers in Albany yesterday by the score of to 1. The champions of last season literally toyed with the local quintet on the spacious AL 0any floor and only for the work of Dick Donnelly, local halfback, the score would have been twice as lad as it was.
 Downright refusal of the two for wards on the local clu bto pass the ball could plainly be seen as the cause Of the debacle of the New Britain team. Bill Duggan, first rush, was at fault in this respect and the fault was so evident that even the Albany fans surrounding the rink, kept chanting Give it to Will liams'' and Pass the ball, you ham all during the game.
 Outstanding in the spectacular ilay ol llIN -NIAlllS tNtlIlt Nt'9 til- work of Holly" Morrison. halfback for the champs. His work was made easier by DugGan's ineffective at tempts to take shots rather than give "kid" Williams the honor Of making goals. Duggan, with Will Hams at the other side of the rink, alone and unguarded. elected to take 1I-1 ,.-l, l, ,NC- MorrisonS shin pads rather than play team work which might have given New Britain chance to win. There is plenty of criticism that can be voiced about the playing of the New Britain team in the series. There is plenty Of criticism that can justly be cast against the Albany team. But, the fault of Duggan in refusing to pass the ball was so glaring yesterday that the local players were licked even before the first period was over. Had the for wards played even the semblance of polo yesterday. Albany would never have had ther runaway that it had. Davies and Harkins scored the only two goals in the first period. Duggan, slapped in New Britain's only score in the second period. AL bany got three more in the third period and added another in the fourth New Brtain's entire work went for naught every time sally was made on the Albany cage be- cause DuGgan. once he got the ball kept it and tried to take it down the floor. Against the speed and the absolute sensational work of the AL bany crew, his efforts were pitiful. On the other hand. Donnclly played his head off. He was up the floor and back on the defense inter- cepting passes, stopping the<s Albany rushers. getting the ball here and there. He was the sensation of the game.
 Davies. Pcregrin and Harllins formed the fastest. trio yet seen Morrison and Welch formed dc. fcnse that it was impossible te penetrate
