 n will be interesting tO watch Capt Vie Gelgot and Capt Bill Bar on. of the Notre Dame and Stanford teams. respectively. in directing their teams in action against each other. Both teams have fine de. fcnsive guards, and also carry a pair of brilliant forwards, and the outcome of the contest is expected to be won by Q close margin.
 Billy O'Brien, Chase company and popular A. c. speedy, court performer, will again handle the whistle. Billy has performed won derful in the role of referee, and the boys were happy and thankful to secure the services of this pop ular all around athlete.
 Joe Coskie, reserve player of the Notrc Dame team, has been coming up rapidly in basketball circles. and Capt GelgOt is more than pleased to secure the services of the Highland avenue athlete.
 Joe Klish. Cornells star right guard, who is the heaviest boy in the circuit, whose weight is close to 200 pounds could still step lively with the lightest and fastest boy in the league. The other hard work CTS on his team are Adam Alulis and Al Mazeika and with Joe "Worden" Swasey, the Brooklyn A. c. star center. loom the Cor nell team as a dangerous contender for first place.
 Francis "Stretch" Kvietkus who easily beams over the 6 foot-thrcc dine, is probably the tallest player in the league. "Stretch" plays with the Holy Cross outfit. and is q great help to Capt Balanda. his speed, height and fine passing. en- abled the Holy Cross team to be mp among the leaders.
 Bill Jackie. former Barnard school pitcher and basketball play CT. who is in the lineup of the leading Stanford team, has the best eye for hoop baskets.
 Charley Sauris of the Stanford team and Victor Sauris of the Cor nell team are brothers, and that makes five sets of brothers playing in the league now.

 Frank Shaknaitis. NOtre Dame star center, was formerly mem- her of the famous Chipmunk A. c. team.
 Victor Sabolauskas, Alder street athlete, is playing great brand of ball at left guard for the Yale team. Capt John Williams is con fident that the boy will develop into a star player before long.

Expect Big Crowd

With Naugatuck playing in Tor rington tomorrow another record crowd should be on hand to watch Crosby and Hartford Bulkeley col. lide in their annual combat at Hamilton park. The Blue and White are decided favorites to cop but nevertheless. the same held true last season and Crosby by virtue of 8 second half attack could do no better than score three touch downs when they were deemed good for six.
