Eagles Oppose
 Providence Reds

New Haven, March 15 - With but two games remaining on the schedule for the New Haven Eagles, ere the Carroll flock writes 'finis" to the 1933-34 Canaan sea- son, the Birds promise to gain ven- geance against the Providence Reds and the Boston Cubs whom they will meet on successive Sum- days at the Arena. The Coutu- coached aggregation makes its final invasion of the Elm City on Sunday but the Eagles will endeav- or to write a somewhat different concluding chapter than what hap pened a few weeks ago when the Reds severely trounced the Birds by the score of to 2.
 Providence heads. the Can-Am standing by a close margin and if possible the Birds will seek to de- throne the Rhode Islanders from the pinnacle of the league.
 Carrolls flock has displayed fighting brand of hockey in recent starts and appears to be in the best form of the season. At the start there were many newcomers to the club and it was difficult to organize players who had never played to- gether, but lately the outfit has shown marked improvement in team play and~it would not be sur prising to see the Eagles clip both the Reds and the Cubs, thus mak- ing happy ending to a none too successful season.

Oxford Second to
 Cambridge Crew
By HARRY U. PERCY United Press Stan Correspondent)

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 Putney, Eng, March 17.-UP) -Cambridge's powerful, smooth swinging oarsmen were to fa- vorites to win their 11th straight victory over Oxford today in their seth meeting on the Thames.
 However, odds were expected to be shortened by starting time be- cause of the promise of unfavor- able weather for Britain's greatest rowing race. A special air minis try bulletin this morning forecast fresh southerly winds, squally showers and possibly hail.
 Despite the forecast and clouded skies, vanguards of the expected million spectators from London and all parts of the isles blackened the twopaths along both banks of river by 9 a. m., seeking places of vantage.
 Watercraft of all variety were beginning to tie up or anchor along the famous 4 and 1-2 mile course from Putney to Mortlake. Loud speakers blared from the public barges. Favored ones were draw ing chairs to the windows of ware- houses, factories and the Mortlake brewery.
 Easy Choice
 Cambridge, with a record se- quence of 10 victories, was one of the heaviest favorites in the history of the race because it's eight sweep-swingers have been rowing as a unit since the opening of training last autumn. Meanwhile, Oxford, which was liked by the experts in the fall because it could call on seven old blues, ran into hard luck. Illness caused constant revision of the original boatload, and the advantage the dark blues hoped to gain by coming to Putney a week ahead of time was nullified by a spell of bad weather.
 Oxford lost three regulars through illness and injury, and in addition its newly designed and costly shell proved cumbersome and uncomfortable. The crew was forced to transfer to another shell March g.
 Meanwhile Cambridge, which won 44 times agalnSt OXford'S 40 since the initial race nj 1929, has, developed without mishap a crew which many of the experts hail as the greatest in the schools history. The light blues came up to the tideway from Henley, the week be- ginning March 1, and the critics, getting their first real view of the oarsmen, went into raptures.
 Both shells are trying an innova- tion today, the use of untitled bell, placed amidships, to set the stroke. This system was devised to prevent the rival boat from knowing, by the coxswain's cry. when the beat was lifted.
 J. H. T. Wilson, who is at No. ', for Cambridge is half American. His mother is Mrs Katherine Tucker Wilson of Bristol, R. l., and he spent his boyhood in Texas.

The North End Thomas Club squad, including the veteran court crew of Wagner, Dunn, Sheehan, Swasey and Herb Colby opposes the scrappy borough squad, which has for it's objective the winning of the city championship without a playoff which seems very possible right now, as the Emeralds Lave won the first round of competition and all three games of the second round to date. A win for the Tom mics will create a tie for the lead with the Washington Hills, who are expected to outpoint the Caring tons in the first game at 2:30 D m. though the Carringtons have a habit of making all opposition put on their best display of hoopwork to come through.

M. c. A. tour nament, begun three weeks ago
 Victors over the Ansonia White Flashes Thursday night by a 25- 24 count, the last period of the game was ordered replayed by the tournament protest committee of five high school coaches, but the managers of both teams agreed to a replay of the entire game last night, Chase winning out 31-27 after some neat shooting and team play. After an hours rest, they state junior champions, Boys Club Cadets 35-23 in a game full of thrills and witnessed by 700 fans.

 Chase players were distinctly "on their game" last night. the play of Bob Mcdonald, Jim kastein, Harry I1uey anu TlSTU CoIpy CoHlIiuutiuS fine play throughout both contests to keep Chase in front. Ansonia fought hard and managed to make a strong finish but four points short of their opponents, yet com pletely satisfied that they had met a better team. The Cadets showed good team play, but the height of their opponents made the task of getting the ball more than difficult, though they never stopped trying.
 Following the final game, Cap tain Jim Kastein of the Chase squad was presented with the Democrat-Y. M. c. A. silver bas- ketball trophy. Individual gold basketball charms will be given the players later, with the Cadets to receive silver basketballs. The scores:

hot that mite. Magel rolled 402 and the whole team hit 1643. That's good enough for any team.
 Prospect did not hit much over 500 in any of their three games against Swedish Lutheran yet they took three games hand-running and put themselves nearer the top than they were last week. The Swedish team put up a good scrap but could not seem to get enough pins down to take any one of the games. This team like First Bap- tist and one or two others in the league care more for the sport and the fun they get rather than to just win and when they lose they take it with 8 grin and show up full of fight for the next match.

Y Inter.Club League Standing

Again the Rangers win the Y Inter-Club bowling prize for first place. However, this year it was not as easy as it was last year for this year it was by only two games.
 In the deciding match Thursday nite the Beaus took the first game by 67 pins. In the second game which meant a tie if won by the Beaus or a win if taken by the Rangers, the Rangers took it by ten pins. Ranslow, Shatas and Goodwin all pinned poorly and dropped quite few pins although the Beaus were ahead until the last box when Maisto hit a strike and a good fill to win the game after Bob Hamel had missed an almost impossible spare.
 In the battle between the Y Nots and the Cwoans the Y Nots came away with two games out of the three with every one of the Nots hitting well over 800. That goes for some of. the Cwoans too. At least three of them hit over 300 but the other two did not andemay get bow and arrows again this year.
