But under al the glamor, romance, publicity and hullabaloo beneath her tempers and simles --she was just 8 woman who loved chuldren and yearned for 8 true lover.
 This fascinating character is Judy Carroll, heroine of "Rocka- bye" the RKO-Pathe picture, star ring Constance Bennett and fea- turing Joel McCrea and Paul Lu- kas, coming to the Poli Palace .theater Sunday.
 It is small wonder that Con- stance Bennett had 8 consuming desire to play "Rockabye." Rich in emotion. temperament and hu- man desires, 1t is the sort of char acterization every dramatic actress prays for and finds so seldom. By such roles talent is measured, and Miss Bennett anticipates showing to her admirers a new power and glamor, a new dramatic stature!
 The story shows how Judy, frus- trated because of scandal in her desire to adopt a. child, finds al last a great love for children, te make the supreme sacrifice. Beautiful and more gorgeouslJ gowned than ever, Miss Bennett moves against 8 background O smartness and elegance in "Rocka bye"

CROSBYTTES DROP OPENING GAME
 TO LYMAN HALL
Local Squad Outscored z0-23 in Close Contest
 Reserves Also Lose

Whiting completely in the final period of play, the Crosby High school basketball varsity dropped it's opening game of the season to Lyman Hall High school of Wal lingford, 29 to 23 at the Wilby sym. Nip and tuck all the way, the contest had every promise of finishing one or two points apart in the regulation playing time. or possibly all even, but fast but steady passing and shooting at- tack by the orange-outfitted lads rolled up their third straight win as tight as a little cigar.
 Short Spurt.
 Behind 8 IS to II hunt at half time, Crosby got going early in the third heat, and took the lead, which shortly tied by the Wailing- ford sharpshooters, 17 all at the finish of the period. Kingsland visiting right guard, broke through with some neat hoops-five of them, in fact. It is unusual for a guard to assume the high scoring honors, but KinEsland has been consistent in that capacity all sea- son to date and has been success full because he has a good "eye" and the guarding by opponents in concentrated on the forwards and center most of the time.
 Griffin, at left forward, was the only boy who played consistently. The Crosby squad also dropped the reserve game between the teams, 27 to 15. Ball, LaCroix and Dam- brosky featured. Main game sum- mary:

1.-THE MOST DANGEROUS GAAIE'' AND HOOT GIBSON AT THE NEW GARDEN

If peril brings out the depths of
 love, The Most Dangerous Game"
 showing at the New Garden the-
 ater to-day and tomorrow is one
 of the most romantic films of the
 year. No pair of lovers were
 faced with more dread hazards than confront Joel McCrea and Fay Wray in this eerie tale of an exiled
 nobleman who tires of hunting big game and turns for thrill to track ing humans. Shipwrecked on an island, which the noble exile turned into a human game preserve, the boy and girl go through the most thrilling series of adventures the fertile minds of screen writers have ever devised. The film, in fact, is based upon one of modern litera- ture's hits, Richard Councils prize winning short story of the most un- usual adventure conceived by man. Poe's eeriest phantasies are par alleled. Supporting McCrea and Miss Wray are Leslie Banks. Rob- ert Armstrong and Steve Clemente.
 Seldom has an audience evil denced such rare approval of mo- ton picture as that which attended the opening performance this af- ternoon of "A Mans Land", Hoot Gibson's newest romance of the old west. Thrill followed thrill with lightning like rapidity, rare comedy sparkled, during adventure gave way to sensational climaxies as Adele Buffington's splendid story of romance, intrigue and rapid fire action unfolded on the screen. With a thoroughly human and believable story as basis, the fine cast. head- ed by Hoot, of course. were given every opportunity to parade their unusual talents. The unfolding of the plot represented something new and different in motion picture production, as the screen treat

Especial to The Democratl

Manchester, Dec 15 - Believe fl or not, but the wel-drilled Brook lyn A. c. team of Waterbury, min- us the services of Joe Swasey and Johnny Dunn, were the victims oi one of basketball's most lowest acts of sportsmanship at the hands of Referee Bisseil here last night where they finished second to the Manchester National Guards, 45 to AZ, failing to be awarded a single foul try by the official.
 On the other hand the locals were handed 19 free awards ,mak- ing Il good and giving them the decision, despite tn efact that the visitors outscored them from the field, 21 to IT. At the first quarter the Guards held a 10 to 2 lead, but the second period found the Brass Cttyites raflying to knot the count at 22-all at intermission.
 Matty Sheehan, versatile guard of the Brooklyn, gave one of the best exhibitions of the indoor sport seen here in years before being banished on personals, scoring sev- en double deckers despite the fact that hsi left hand was completely bandaged. The running guard handled the sphere like a veteran pro. He and Hal Maloney and "Yanop Carroll proved a tough trio for the locals to check.
 A return game will be played in Waterbury later in the year.

BY GEORGE II. BEALE United Press Stan Correspondent. Pinch -hitting for Henry McLcmOre.
 Los Angeles, Dec 15.-(UP)- Seven straight, a new wagering plan, designed ostensibly to make every sucker man of financial af- fluence, will be introduced for> the first time at the winter racing program which opens December 26 at Agua Caliente, Mexico.
 A bettor needs only to pick seven straight winners any day to receive Jockey club.
 The system was proposed by Jo- seph M. Schenck, president of the jockey club and a motion picture magnate.
 plains naively, Twill be to pick seven consecutive winners on a single afternoon. The jockey club will guarantee $5.00O to all who do this"
 The plan allows for the rare possibility of no one picking seven winners and the prize acculates, then with the public benefitting to the full extent"
 The way to beat seven straight" Is to buy tickets for every possible com bination of winners. (Mr Schenck has granted permission to each customer to purchase as many tickets as wanted.)
 Twelve horses usually start each race and there are seven races 50 It's worked out by taking the sine of the lowest common denominator and-well, anyway, an expert mathematician worked 1t out and found there were only S5,S40,00O possible combinations. This will run into good bit of money at $2 a ticket but it's q sure way to win the $5,000 and it's all for the sake of the sport. Oh, yes, Agua Caliente, when de- natured. means "hot water.

"CENTERAL PARK" AND snfR ROBINSON UsOE" AT STATE; "UNDER COVER
 MAN" COAfl SATURDAY.
 Something dil.. mt from the average spectacular picture is Central Park" which heads a splendid double feature program at Warmers State to-day and to- morrow. It's a one location picture with all the action taking place within a single day within the con. fines of New York Citys Central Park.
 Joan Blondell, who always gives a fine performance, and who has been getting better and better roles, again performs in fine style. As 0 stranded chorus girl. who in- nocentiy gets mixed up with some stickup artists, she gives a convinc- ing portrayal. Wallace Ford, who handles the male lead opposite Joan Blondell, plays his part as the other homeless, friendless waif adrift in the city's big park, with great capability.
 Excellent support is loaned tn , leads by the work of Guy Kibbe as the nerly blind policeman whose tragedy and final vindication is knowingly pathetic; by Patricia El- lis and Henry B. Walthall, Charles Sellon, Spencer Charters, Harold Huber, John Wray and others.
 The companion feature is "Mr Robinson Crusoe" and stars Doug las Fairbanks. This production deals with the experiences of an adventurous sportsman who iso- lates himself on South Seas island to win a bet. With nothing but a toothbrush and his faithful dog, he comes to grips with nature in the rough, encounters cannibals and no end of narrowing exper- fences, and finishes with bamboo penthouse and beautiful South Seas maiden in his hands. The pic- ture abounds in humor and rapid fire action, and is framed in gor- focus and novel tropical setting. In fact, it's rhythm and movement ia reminiscent, in many instances, of Robin Hood"
 Saturday brings Paramounts s new hit "Under Cover Man" with George Raft. Nancy Carroll, Ros- COG Karns, Lew Cody and Gregory Ratoff.

The first trade, including six players from the St Louis Browne and the Washington Senators, laid the groundwork for the second late last night.
 Even Half D6zen
 In the six-player deal, Washing- ton sent Lloyd Brown, left-hand. cd pitcher, and Sam West and Carl Reynolds, outfieledrs. to St Louii in exchange for Walter stewart, southpaw pitcher. "Goose' Cos lin, ontfieider who originally came from Washington, and Fred Schul- te, antoher fiy-chaser, Washington also parted with some cash - re- portedly $20,000.
 Immediately thereafter Bucky Harris, manager of the Detroit Tigers, offered the Senators Earl Whitehill. southpaw hurler. for Stewart.
 The Senators suggested that Har- ris take Fred "Firpo" Marberry in. stead of Stewart. The deal was made. It was a straight swap.
 The addition of Whitehill to the Washington mound stan gives the senators two ace left-handers. Stewart was not very successful last season with the Browns but in 1880 won 20 games. Whitehill is an old timer. He Is 32 years old. Last year he pitched in 32 games and won 16.
 Gosiin returns to tfse club with which he made his big league de- bute in 1921 when he became pop ular as the "Wild Goose of the Potomac" In 1890 he was traded to the Browns for Heinie Manpsh and Alvin Cfowder because he dis agreed with Manager Walter John son.
 Remember?
 Reynolds was obtained by Wash ington from the White Box in 1891. He received g broken jaw this year when he was slugged by Bill Dickey, Yankee catcher. during a game at Griffith Stadium.
 Brown pitched in A games dur ing the 1892 season, winning 16 and losing 12.
 Schulte, right-handed hitting outfielder, has a lifetime average of just below 300.
 Marberry served as 8 relief cap acity this season. He won 8 and lost 4.
 West is 2S years old and batted .287 in 146 games this season.
 In the National League the trad- ing pace was set by the New York Giants but all the deals were with minor leagues. Eddie Marshall, once a promising shortstop, was traded to the Buffalo Bisons of the International League by the Giants for John "Blondy' Ryan, also g shortstop. The Giants also parted with some cash.
 Other shifts
 Bill Shores, right-handed pitcher of Portland, Oregon, of the Pacific Coast League, was obtained by the Giants for Pitcher Sam Gibson and cash. The Boston Braves obtained Her. man Gyselman, third basefnan and Al Wright, second baseman, from the San Francisco Missions for William Walter, third baseinan with Montreal on option and $60,- 900.
