When, Joe Rozint of the Nauga- tuck Emeralds and Howie Kraft of the Washington Hills got into 8 fistic tangle last Sunday afternoon during the first round playoff be- tween the two teams, the way was paved for denial of the court to the league which actually hap pened last Monday night, when c. R. Ganung, chairman of the ' athletic committee informed the managers the Y. M. c. A. court would no longer be available for City league use.
 Another Chance
 As usual, the managers put the matter up to the league president, MT Derwin. who told them that all he could do was try to get the Y executives to reconsider the matter, which he has accomplished and the games will be played as usual next Sunday. However, Derwin. hav- ing assumed full responsibility for all future games at the "Y" will have complete authority without vote of managers in the matter of referees and suspension of play CTS who occasionally get their bas- ketball and battling done the same day at the same time.
 Schedule
 Sunday afternoon at 2:30 p. nn., the Washington Hills, defending champions and runners-up for first round honors this season will meet the Sacred Hearts while the Carringtons and Naugatuck Em- eralds, first round champs get to- gether in the second game at 3:30 D. m.
 Lieutenant Hubert Cunningham of the fire department, manager of the famous Kaceys and Pastimes of the old City league days has been secured to coach the Thongs club team, following a reorganiza- ton of players. Kenny Ouimet will remain as manager of the team with the franchise for the club to be owned by north end individuals for the club. "New DeaF' Kraft or Rozint will not be pe- nalfzed for their fistic display of last Sunday but will start from scratch with. all other players. In other words, there's new dear ahead for the second round of play with Derwin as the dealer, and no marked cards.

HOPEVILLE SPORTS

The Hopevil1e Community bowl ing league will hold It's regular schedule matches Friday night at the Genlot alleys at 7:30 o'clock. The league is progressing under the able guidance of President Pe- ter Kinney in it's first year of com petition and within the next few weeks team made up of star bowlers from the club will be pitted against the best in the city in a series of match games. The games last week proved to be of high standing with Bill Pelletier hitting high three of 327 while brother Harvey threw them left handed for high single with 121. Pete Kinney's Lemons had all their juice squeezed out of them by the extent of three games by the Peaches who are leading the league for several weeks. Maybe Pat isn't kicking them over as good as usual? The Pears who were be- ginning to go places after a shaky start, fell back to fifth place iD the league after taking two out of three games from Walt Wilmont's Oranges. Three straight would have made Q tie between the Oranges who are far from sun- kissed and the Pears. Next Friday night Ray French expects his Bananas to slip one over on. Scotty Semple's Lemons who have been telling everyone in the "ville" that they haven't much juice left but enough to take the Bananas for three straight. Judas Jones expects to be on time for change and help his Pineapples take first place from Charley Ahearn's Peaches. Jack Dwyer will be benched by Bert Walker of the Pears for fail- ing to fill a strike last week when 1t was most needed. The schedule for Friday night: Oranges vs. Pine- apples, alleys 15-16: Lemons vs. Bananas, alleys i1-12; Pears vs. Peaches, alleys 13-14.

A little knocIt---a little. boost; First it's me--then it's you; No harm done--it's all i'm fun. By
 Miss LOtta Strikesanspares

How many of you looked for the Kopiczh- Bobbin team scores and failed to find them with the other eight teams, therein lies a tale of real sportsmanship, and my chapeau goes off to Captain Ed Bobbin for his action in refusing to accept three games by forfeit from Captain Kopiczh's team, who took the floor with but three men, thereby automatically forfeitlng all games bowled.
 Even the Robbins legal-ites are down at the bottom and the above 8 games would have given them q boost upward, Ed would not take advantage of an opportunity that may not como to him again all season, incidentally, genial Eds acc tion Is shining example for some of you other captains who are just waiting for an occasion to grab a game by forfeit or otherwise. The reason for but three of KOpiczh's men showing up was because Of the death of John KOpiczh's mother, and say, wouldn't it be the irony of fate if Bobbin were to lose when Kopy and Ed bowl off their three postponed games.
 Now for the hammer - Good grief, do my eyes fail me or did Billy Mazaikas sextet actually put the skids under Sheriff Jenusaitis and his deputies for three games yep, they sure did and how: wilson's 2S2, Miller's 323; Alder man John Bendler's 327 (atta boy, John), Drevinskas 273, Billy Sere- dinska's mighty 363 and Captain Maz's 306, overwhelmed the guard ians of law and order to the tune of 1874 to 1,750. How does 1t feel to be on the receiving end of a three game seeking, sheriff? J know you don't, mind 1t, but poor Cal and A1ibi Ike Stokes must have lost ten pounds between them' Moisture Weight.

i. S. WILL SLASH
CUBAN TRADE DUTY
Various Concessions Re-
ported in Reciprocal Pact
to Be Signed.
Nv the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Government apparently is going
to surrender a substs ntial chunk of
revenue to Cuba in an effort to help
American farms and factories regain
export markets in the island.
All indications today were that the
United States will slash duties on
Cuban sugar by about 5000 600 in
q reciprocal trade treaty which is to
be signed and proclaimed here tomor-
row. If the trade scheme works out,
this money and more will come back
as increased income for American
farmers and industry.
Other Concessions Reported.
It is understood the United States
makes concessions also to Cuban
tobacco, pineapples, Winter vegetables
and fruits and liquors, in return for
which Cuba knocks down her tariff
barriers for scores of American agri-
cultural and manufactured products.
This is the first of the gfve-and-
take treaties to be signed under new
powers granted the President by Con-
gress.
The duty on Cuban sugar, informed
sources believed, will be cut SO cents
q hundred pounds. This will be the
chief concession to the island re-
public. Such a duty decrease would
mean about $4,000 900 more to the
Cuban sugar interests on their quota
of 100000 tons annually, and $l9,-
600 900 less for the Federal Treasury.
officials frankly acknowledge that
the reciprocal drive launched with the
Cuban treaty is a big experiment in
rebuilding foreign trade.
REPLACES Old Pact.
The new agreement temporarily re-
places the permanent trade pact OF
1902. It runs for three years, after
which it can be ended within six
months by either government.
The expected lowering of seasonal
tariffs on Winter fruits and veg
etables from Cuba-notably, pine
apples, bananas, tomatoes, potatoes,
avocadoes and table vegetables-is ex-
pected to meet with disapproval OF
some American farm organizations.
Fruit and vegetable men, tobacco
growers and others opposed tariff cuts
In recent hearings.
The goal of the two governments is
recovery of the $2OO,000,OOO to $780,
100000 markets of pre-depression
years These have shrunk to 10 or 20
per cent of what they once were.
In 1925, the United States sold
$199, 900 900 worth of American prod
ucts In Cuba, and bought S261 ,000, 900
worth of Cuban goods. In 1888 this
trade had shriveled to $24, ,800,0 900 and
$58,500. 900, respectively.

SUES FOR DIVORCE
Former Wife Of McAdoo's Son
Charges Cruelty and
Non-Support.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, August 23.-Mrs.
Ethel Mccormick McAdoo Keith,
daughter OF Mrs. Isaac z, Emerson and
divorced wife Of Huber McAdoo, son of
william Gibbs McAdoo, has instituted
suit for partial divorce from her
second husband on grounds of cruelty
and non-support.
She married her present husband,
Walter Winchester Keith, Baltimore
society man, in 1929.
Her first marriage was to McAdoo
In 1918 and was dissolved 10 years
later in Paris.
The complaint also declared there
was mo reasonable hope of reconcilia-
tion.''
Keith, a member of the British
Royal Flying Corps during the World
War, married Miss Florence Mont
gomery of Cleveland in 1920. They
were divorced in 1928.
A partial divorce in Maryland is a
legal separation granted by the courts
permitting alimony and support for
children, but prohibiting the parties
to the action from marrying again. IT
is not necessarily preliminary step
toward an absolute divorce.
