LYMAN HALL AND MERIDEN COLLIDE
 FOR THIRD TIME
Silver City Team Holds Two Victories Over Yale Tourney Rivals - Meet Tomorrow
Special to The DcmocraD

Lyman Hall high of Wallingford and Meriden high, its keenest nat urai rival, will be meeting for the third time this season when they take the floor at the New Haven Arena tomorrow night in Yale tournament competition.
 Twice these teams have had tor rid battles during the regular sea- son and, while Meriden won them both, there has been so little dif- ference that a gambler would prob ably prefer to stake his roll on the scrappy Wallingford quintet when the two teams clash in the vitally important tournament set-to.
 When the two teams met in Mer- iden, the Silver City schoolboys pulled out a 24 to 23 win, scoring the winning points in the closing seconds of the ball game.
 Comeback Barely Fails
 There was a wild and woolly game when the teams clashed again at Wallingford. Meriden ran up a 13 to 1 lead at half time. But Wallingford came like fury in the second half and Frank Barnikow's team was barely able to slave them off and win by the narrow margin of 19-1T.
 Much the same conditions marked the first round Hillhouse-West Ha- ven game. Those two teams come together in the second game Thurs day afternoon. They are natural rivals like Meriden and Lyman Hall and have met twice during the regular season. Hillhouse barely nosed out West Haven in the first game but won the second handily'
 Kin Each Other
 There seems to be some queer twist of fate that sends these arch rivals against each other in tour nament competition. Several years running Manchester and Bristol, outstanding Central Connecticut league teams had to kill each other off fin seml-final rounds. Last year Commercial high of New Ha- ven and West Haven high had a ding-dong light.
 Bristol this year Is the only Hartford county team in the tour nament. The Bell Towners carry the load alone but the teams sup porters are sure that Fanny Mon- nhan's latest edition will sweep through the tournament and re- gain the championship Bristol teams won In 1927, 1928 and 1929.
