The second round of the league started off with bang and when the smoke of battle cleared away there were quite few surprises.
 J. F.. Smith the leaders of the first round won two games from the ApOthccarics Hall. due to the exccl- lent bowling of Slim Mulhcrn, Smoky Joe Rozum and J. SculIy. Henry Minnicucci has not quite re- covered from his illness and was below form. While we think that the holidays were a little too much Hall won the first game hut could not click in the remaining two. Cur tis and Doc Farina were the stars of their team and tried hard to swing the tide of battle. We missed Shorty the Hall lcadOT man and hope he will be back in the lineup soon.
 Ernie Tracy was the big noise in Tracy's two game victories over Chatficlds. All the teams in the league are improving and the lead CTS better watch out they are not passed out in the final drive. Ernie Tracy should call few more prac- tice sessions for F. Johnson and HObbie Tracy, they nave both been below form and maybe a little ex- ercise wouldn't do them harm.
 Ben ChatficId is improving stcad- fly and we expect to see him in the race for high average. Joe Sherman was all tired out playing Santa Claus 10 all the neighbOrs children. He was all tired out climbing down chimneys.
 The Street Department surprised everybody including themselves by giving the Waterbury Mattress a fight with only three men bowling the others were busy singing Christmas carols. The Mattress won the last game by one pin. Jack Mikti brought along his "hole in one ball" and 1t lived up to it's name. He averaged fifteen spares with two pins the highest filler. He heard that somebody told him there was no Santa Claus.
 Tho boys had to bowl very good to offset the "triplc threat" from the Street Department. Cookie Shea, Fearless Frank Shechy and little Frankie Kcrncr.

BASKETBALL &sA&So PLAMSa@ PINXERS
Penn Attack Features Fast Passing Quick Breaking
 With Very Little Dribbling
By EVERETT s. DEAN Basketball Coach, Indiana U.

When Lon Jourdet, former ad- visory basketball coach at Pennsyl- vania, took over the active coaching duties this year, he declared that his team would feature a fast pass ing attack with very little dribbling.
 This style of offense Is very ef- fective and much harder to stop than one featured by the dribble. Good passing tends to get the de- fense out of position and encour- ages a fiveman offense as compared with the trend to individualism in the dribbling attack.
 Joie Schaaf, high scorer of the Eastern Intercollegiate conference two years ago, was one of the main cogs fin the offense diagramed here. The offense consists of fast passing by three men out in front who pass in to two men who have penetrated the defense. Fast accurate passing to men meeting the ball and cutting for basket describe this attack.
 The Pennsylvania team has one of the finest playing floors in the coun- try. The Palestra seats several thou sand people and is perfect exam pie of basketball playing conditions

Bad Place to Play
 What was described as "deplor- able conditions" for basketball game were related by the Star Water member to-day in telling about the situation which arose when the Meriden manager booked two games for his team on the same night. According to the local boys, the Meriden playing surface wher> the game was to take place left much to be desired. what with a very low ceiling. bad baskets and the fact that neither the team they were to play nor an official was on hand at the appointed time which was 9:30 though the Waterbury team was on the floor ready to play at that time and for a half hour afterward
 Schedule Scramble
 In view of the fact that most of the boys are employed and they did not wish to get home too late, the local lads walked off the floor after 10 o'clock when there was no sign of their opponents who were playing another game earlier in the evening in another part of Meriden. Insofar as a game is concerned, the Star

 Princeton has come out in favor of abollshing intersectional games. O'Goofty has been thinking Prince ton hasn't played any intcrsectional games for long while.
 A judge in Cleveland ruled the city boxing commission has no auth ority. Just as we suspected.
 Now If some more jurists would only rule that the New York con- mission and the National Boxing As sociatiOn have no power it would be a big help all around.
 
 A couple of our leading box CTS already have made that de- cision, however.
