NEWPORT TOURNEY ONLY MONTH AWAY
Especial to The Democrat)

Newport, K. l., Feb 18-Several of the New England high school quintets have fallen by the wayside and several have improved their standings considerably after this past weeks performances. With the New England scholastic Basketball Tournament only a month away, interest is increasing as to the probable aspirants. In southern Maine, South Port land continues to run rampant through all opposition. Cheverus undefeated and only potential op- ponent to the Capers, tackled the first defeat oc the season upon a strong Waterville High five.
 In the north, Houlton is leading the Aroostock League; Calais ap- pears to be the master of the sit uation Down East; in the Kene- bee district, Winslow and Cony High of Augusta look the best. In one of the outstanding upsets of the 1893 Vermont season, Spring field, undefeated in Vermont com petition, received an unmerciful pasting from a mediocre Bellows Falls quintet by a 38 to 13 score. Spaulding continues merrilly on it's unbeaten path anc overwhelmed Burlington, 37 to IF.
 Portsmouth High avenged an early season loss to Manchester Central and downed the Little Green" 28 to 13. Incidentally, this defeat was the first Manchester at the hands of New Hampshire op- position.
 ,Greenfield's 21 to 19 victory over Holyoke cost Holyoke the Valley League championship as this loss automatically makes Westfield the champions. The city series between St Mary's of Westfield and Vest field High on February 24 and 2S will probably decide the outstand- ing team in western Massachu- setts.
 In eastern Massachusetts, Brock ton is still away out in front and is nailed as the outstanding quin- tet in New England.
 Tn Connecticut. a new threat, New Britain High. has appeared to lay clam to the championship hon. ors. New Britain's 40 to 32 defeat of Hillhouse at New Haven estab- fishes tlle Hardware" boys as po- tential contenders for premier hon. ors.. Bristol, New Britain. Hillhouse anu NduSdtuCk dppdreHtiy arc tHe class of the high school teams in the Nutmeg" state.
 Central High of Providence by virtue of a 30 to 28 win over De La Salle and 36 to 13 trouncing of La Salle has won for it the respect of the other Rhode Island teams.
 With the Rhode Island situation jumbled up among ten aspiring fives the only solution for Rhode Island will rest with the winner of the coming Rhode Island tourna- ment.

PETE JABLONOWSKI HOLDING OUT FOR
 SALARY INCREASE
Former Waterbury Pitcher Returns Yankee COn= tract With an Invitation to Come Again
BY BILL BRAUCHER

Folks, here's a peculiar situation. | Several young men who spent all | of last season in the minor leagues | are holding out against the salar- ies offered by major league teams. The young men are Ted Gullic of the Browns, Bill Knickerbocker of | the Indians and Pete Jablonowski of the Yankees. Of course these young men are not rockies in the | sense that they never have worn big league uniforms. Jablonowski
 heaved his curve ball for the h. dians for year or so before he
 finally was traded to the Red sox.
 Pete Perks Up
 But Knickerbocker never played a game of big league ball. The
 rookie shortstop hitch-hiked from
 Los Angeles to Toledo for a try
 out in 1880 and slept under the | grandstand until the first pay day. Evidently Bill has been learn
 ing fast.
 After the Red Sox had let Jab-
 lonowski go, the Yankees farmed | him to Newark. The Polish pianist
 picked up from that time, winning
 Il and losing one for the Bears
 last year. Pete returned his con- tract with an invitation to come
 again.
 Added to the rest of the Yankee
 holdout problems is that presented by James DeShong, Mister De- l Shong was purchased by the Ath- letics from Harrisburg and option ed to Jersey City. Last year he was sent to Sacramento in the deal that brought Tony Freitas to the As. James went ahead and won 13 games while losing six in the Coast League, and he figures that's some- thing. When the Tanks purchased him from Sacramento they also bought ar argument.
 Promoted Down
 We come now to the strange case of Ted Gullic. Mister Guile turns out to be one of the reasons why Vice President L. c. McEvoy wish es he never had gone into baseball in a clerical way. Mac sent Gullic what he thought was a handsome contract for his first year in the big leagues. GLllic sent 1t back with some remarks appended in this wise:
 You are offering me less money lldH l BOt LOT pldylH6 "AlH "Ii- waukee last year. I always thought the majors represented the top in baseball. I will stay right here in Koshkonong, Mo, ana hunt squir- rels all summer if the ante isn't sweetened."
 McEvoy says it's the depression, and that Ted received last year at Milwaukee what this year amounts to big league salary. Maybe Gullic was born a bit too late for the big dough, but not too late to hold just as good an opin- ion of his services as Ring Lard ner's immortal rookie. Jack Keefe. The old Confidence
 i've got confidence in myself now," says the Missourian. Frank O'Rourke (manager of the Brew ers) has helped me. so has King Bader, the coach. A year ago (1931) when I went to bat I was too stiff and rigid. O'Rourke and Bader kept yelling Loosen up, Ted!' Now don't care who's pitch ing, my mind Is made up to drive 'em where they ain't."
 Maybe Mister McEvoy might help the situation by shouting the same thing at Gullic that O'Rourke and Bader advised, Loosen up, Ted!" But at this writing Ted seems to have beaten McEvoy to the punch.

Last week found the revamped 900 Bldg five hitting on all five as they came back strong to win the last two games from the Rod and Roll after droping the opener. With Bobby Greateaux spilling 131 and 138 along with Henry Rehers 133-100, they ran up STA and 542 games to completely drown their opponents.
 Georgie 'sBashful' Tucker show ed his worth by piling up 8 total of 33O, but his mates weren't with him.
 Phil Johnson the old time office performer some years back, came out of retirement, where he's been for the past two years to bolster his alma mater" up a bit. Phil did a good job and reports have it he will be seen regularly from now on. (More power to you Phil, Old Boy.)
 Joe MarifanO the Office anchor man showed what the duties of his position are, when he sOcked, smashed and busted the naples for a S68, which is nice bowling in any mans country.
 Newell Michell the quiet one, on the Office team came through with three nice games 108, 131, IA total 353, pretty nice eh, Newell.
 Harry Tucker was asking how they make bowling alleys including tho cost, length etc. We think may be Harry is going to install alleys in the cellar of the Tucker home and will be fOunod faithfully practicing for a great season next year.
 The boys were kidding Johnny Daniels about being in den upon further investigation on the part of this column, we find that Dan- iels was being kidded about being in the 'Lions Den" due to the wild and woolly way he rolls, but never theless he registers some good games.
 The fans got a big laugh out of the remark passed to Ronald Keith when in the sixth box and having no marks, Daniels said "Come on Ronald It's time you settle down. We all know you're old enough"
 Tony Arcardis the weight throw CT always forgets that his bowling, the result Is he goes half way down the alley with the ball each time.
 He many friends in this league wish speedy recovery from the recent operation which has made the popular Tommy Flanagan of the Conn. IL. l& F. Bowling league discontinue his favoritc sport for the time being.
 In the other game we saw the Office team strengthened by the return to the fold of John Shaw. who minus his jumping inspired his fellow bowlers on to a triple victory over the Yard.
