ago, defeated a fine Navy crew and returned the following year to prove mastery. A few years later California sent great eight east to repeat the works of Washington. Football Follows
 The east long ago must have realized that it's football teams, fast and smart though they were, could not play in the same league with the overpowering Westerners.
 Beginning with 1921 the east be- came accustomed to western domi- nation by track squads from the Pacific coast. California sent win ming teams in 1921, '22 and '2S. Yale surprised in 1924, but south ern California ruled in 1925 and '26, Then Stanford took up it's four year reign where the Trojans left off.
 In tennis the east had it's incom- parable Tilden of course, and Big Bill was q whole cOurtful of play CTS. But, 20 years ago redhaired roisterer from California came east and started fireworks that revolu- tionized the game. His name was Maurice Mclaughlin and his game was tough. He rudely brushed aside the niceties to which the east had become accustomed and began scorching game which the east had to copy to hold its own.
 Mclaughlin started something within his own state. Soon every lad big enough to toddle onto the courts was whaling away with a racquet. A veritable army moved upon eastern nets and took home cups by the score.
 New Heroes
 But-polo! This was the east game, with it's Milburn, Hitchcock, Stevenson, and Webb. It had been the casts own game since 1SS6 when a team of Hone, Lawley. Lit tie, and Watson took it's first inter national lesson from the British.
 Chicago saw the end of eastern domination that stretched back over years. Hard-riding Texans. Cecil Smith, ,Rube Williams, and their cohorts, took some western football principles, a little of the fire and dash of Maurice McLough- lin, added q bit of blocking and tackling and became champions of the world.
 The west has swept irresistibly across the last great barrier--un- less you count roque. croquet, and archery. Maybe those sports will be next.

 ReymOnds vs B. H. Jrs

In an endeavcr to raise funds for the new Bunker Hlll play ground, Mrs William Leggett, member of the B. H. Civic Organ ization and Girl Scout commis- sioner, has arranged an attractive doubleheader for the Bunker Hill church sym Monday evening, feat uring the Putsic Friars, Central I Interclub League leaders. against the Bunker Hill Blues, conquerors of the strong New Britain Boys Club.
 This attraction will start prompt ly at 8.3O o'clock with John A. Cluney as the eleventh man on the floor. In the appetizer at 7:30 o'clock, The Reymond Hillies, un- defeated leaders of the Brooklyn Y Junior League, will collide with the Bunker Hill Juniors. Dancing will follow the games and continue until midnight. :.
 The hooded boys from the Y will be strengthened considerably for this game by the presence of Harry Huey, stellar Washington College star, in one of the guard berths. A fact which promises to make this game a rip-snorter from the start to finish Is that three of the Blues, Ray Snyder, Johnny Brown and Andy Stavnitsky were members of the Friars for two years until they resigned two years ago. Since then the Blues and Friars have yet to meet
 Eddie Stevens, leading scorer in the Industrial League and a former Washington College cap tain, will be pitted against the cur rent Chestertown undergrad which should also add color to the bat tie. Chris Poulson and Bill Curtis will round out the Blues team while the remainder of the Y boys will include George Holloway. Johnny Rozum, Vincent Healy, Harry Dubuque, Eddie Evans, Al Light, Frank Cucolo and Johnny Driscoll.

Strings of 13S and 105, in addition to his 12S. gave vaitukaitis a best three games of 371 and when you get time to think about it mates, that's pretty good pin work.

 NAUCATUCK SQUAD
(speciaI to The Democratl

Naugatuck, Dec. 27.-Despite widespread belief that it will be de- feated tonight by the James Mon- roe high school basketball team Of New York, the local high school five is by no means dismayed and repards such predictions as lacking any real basis.
 The Naugatuck team members point out that they have yet to be beaten by d high school team, that they are playing on the floor they know so well, the Y. M. c. A" floor, and that although they are admittedly a newly-formed com bine, the yare improving with every game.
 Uncertain
 They are out to win tonight and feel confident that they can do so. However, the general impression prevails that if James Monroe brings a team here that has US usual high calibre 1t will trim the Garnet. Of course many of the hign school rooters believe Naugatuck will win but there are some who think the team has not yet improv- ed enough to trim first class ma teria1. the visitors. Naugatuck will play Lewis high of Eouthington Satur- day, here but this is expected to be a triumph for the locals. However, fans who go to see tonight's game should be well repaid for they are likely to see a close game and 1T the visitors win they will have 70 display fine form for 1t is a fact that Naugatuck is hard to beat on It's home floor.

 New York, Dec 27.-(UP)-
 Those persons who are good at sitting down before q roaring hre, pipe in mouth. sheep dog at feet, and speculating, would do their na- ton great service by. specuiating on where in the hell the noble game of wrestling is going and what it's trying to arrive at.
 One has only to review the wrestling situation to realize that the sport is in a bad way, and that unless something Is done quickly sport which has endured down through the ages, is likely to be put to an end by the sanitary com missioners or representative from the s. P. c. A.
 One of the first things that must be done if wrestling is to be saved Is for some one to sit down and determine who's champion, for this country. Fine and understanding as it is, cannot be expected to bear up under so many champions much longer. I would gladly as sume this onerous task myself were
 
 already been working on 1t six my research, instead of narrow ing the field of champions, increas- ed it. According to my wrestling family tree there are 6,7sl legiti- mate claimants to the title.
 The championship confusion really started when Strangler Lewis wrestled Henry Deglane of Canada, for the title. Deglane, you rcmem- Der, won on 6 foul when he ex- hibited marks on his legs and claimed they were put there by the old Strangler's old teeth, or vice versa. If the title passes every time a champion bites an opponent for a man bitten by a champion bites his opponent. There must be fully 6,781 champions at large.
 Another problem which needs immediate attention if the one in- volving wrestling referees. Just what are wrestling referees |? Where do they come from?
 What are they looking for when they drop all fours and peer in- tently under the panting, heving, sweating backs and bellies of the pachyderms? Certainly they're not looking to see if a wrestler's shoul- ders are touching, for they don't end matches that way any more. Matches end now only when one Cor both) grunters wear themselves out acting or the soft chimes of the curfew send them to the pas- lures for few hours of quiet graz. ing.
 Another puzzler to be solved is now on earth we are ever going to get rid of Jim Londos as a champion. It can't be by getting him thrown for unless my memory is up to some tomfoolery James was thrown by Joe Savoldi, only to get himself some new stationery with the letterhead Jim Londos, Champion of the World" in eight inch type instead of the usual and modest seven-inch.

 Local fishermen said the strike is spreading to Astoria, Warren ton, Ilwaco, Neah Bay and Puget Sound.
