SKI ENTRIES MAY
 SET NEW RECORDS
Galaxy of Stars Entered in
 Winsted Competition E Tomorrow Afternoon
(special To The Democrat)

Winsted, Feb. Strand Milk kelson of Greenfield, Mass, who is known as the instructor of the Rund brothers, Olympic ski stars, will be among the contenders for "a new hill record at the Winsted Ski club hill tomorrow afternoon where there will be jumping from two to four o'clock.
 Mikkelsen began his skiing when he was five years old and since that time he has held between 30 and 40 titles in Norwegian, Cam adian and American skiing. One of the most novel experiences he has had occurred at the Post Olympic meet in Greenfield in 1892. On his first leap of 159 feet he cracked his ski. Borrow ing his brother Roy's skis, he re- .tturned for his second jump, this time jumping 174 feet breaking the hill record and making the longest standing jump of the day, but the force was so great that his right ski broke in two and it was necessary for him to ride down the rest of the hill on one ski which he managed to do standing. His longest jump of 2O8 1-2 feet was made last year on the Winsted ski hill.
 s Special busses will be run from Waterbury. New Haven and Hart ford directly out to the ski hill. Much parking space Is available for Sunday.

Naugatuck, Feb. 9- Naugatuck high school dropped another game to Ansonia high last night at An- sonia. The score was 2S-23. Fights among players and a dispute be. tween Coach Peter J. Foley and the Ansonia coach featured the game.

 The game had been scheduled for tonight but Ansonia could not get the Armory floor that night so 1t was played last night.

WORLDS LEADING
 TRACK STARS AT BOSTON TONIGHT
Cunningham and BOuthron Not Entered = High
 Jump Attracts
BY ERNEST l.. BARCELLA United Press Staff COrreSDOndent

(Cntted Press Stan COrreSpOndcnt)
 Boston Feb, 9-UPO-S of track and field-world's record holders, Olympic, American. Jn- ternational and Intercollegiate cham pions-pass in review at Bos- ton Garden tonight in the 46th an- nual indoor B. A. A. games.
 The games this year take on the aspect of three-ring circus, with cid performers dominating the spotlight.
 Since Glen Cunningham, the Kansas flyer and worlds indoor and outdoor hcampion miller, and Bill Bonthron, former Princeton sensation, began startling the track world with their brilliant running duels. mile runs have rated top billing wherever the two have competed.
 But Glenn and Bill aren't run ming tonight, so interest seems split three ways-the 1,0o0-yard run, pole vault and high jump.
 Although Gene Venzke, Eric Ny of Sweden and Leslie Wadc, the Canadian champion, are pitted against each other in the 25th running of the Hunter. mile, att tention will be focused on Charles (Chuck) Hornbostel, who lowered the world 600-yard mark in the Millrose. Games at New York last week, and during the same eye ming, came ,within second of cqualling the worlds 1,oo0-yard record. 1..e < "r,; r
 It is the latter event that Horn ,bostel, measuring strides with El- ton Brown, his Kansas conqueror, Waldo; Sweet of New York A.. O., and Glenn Dawson of Oklahoma, will attempt to better the record of 2:12 made by Hal ,,(Flying Par son) Cutbill in Buffalo 13 years ago. Keith Brown of Yale, who has pole-vaulted higher than any human, will be the one-rinan at- traction in that event, despite six other vaulters capa ble of doing Ia feet or better. Brown will attempt to better his own worlds indoor record of IA feet, inches made in New York year ago, and, at the same time, top his 14-foot B. A. A.. mark.
 A record height may be sealed in the high jump, which pits George Spitz of N. Y.a U., former worlds record holder, against Connie Johnson, California's negro sensation. Both will be shooting at the worlds indoor record of 6 feet 8 3-4 inches established in New York last year by another Cali fornia, Walter Marty.
 Other outstanding performers who will be watched by an expect ed record crowd of t6.00O include Ivan Fuqua and Milton Sander. of New York in the 500; Joe Me- Cluskey. former Fordham distance star, and Johnny Fellows of New York A. C., in the two-mile event; Milton Green of Harvard in the 45-yard hurdles, and Bob Linders of Cornell, who recently %. came within one-tenth of a second of Ralph Metcalf's 60-meter woEld record in the ,50-yard dash.

WEAKENED IRISH AMERICANS FACE
 HEARTS SUNDAY
Bf0Oklyns and Thomas Club in Second Game
 at YMCA

The second round in the city amateur basketball league elim- 1nation tournament will be played ct the Central YMCA tomorrow afternoon before an anticipated banner attendance. It is a well known fact that the coffers of the circuit haven't been too heavy in the past few weeks and at this fme the boys are entitled to some sort of a break. Two games are 10 be featured with the Irish Americans and Sacred Hearts play ing the first at 2:30 p. m. and the Brooklyn A. c. cagers facing the North End Thomas club in the second and final tussle of the aft ernoon.
 Judging from current indica- tions, the Irish are due to be elim- mated from the tourney by the same fate as they themselves ad- ministered to the Naugatuck Em- eralds on the eve of the league opening. The real punch of the first series winners 1t must be ad- mitted was in the players secured in the borough just a few hours before both clubs went on the floor to wage their 1934-35 campaign Frank Balinsky, Dick Tuckey, Nor man Johnson and Bob Gair of the Rubebr Town and Eddie Stevens. recently transferred from the de- 1unct Carringtons without the Knowledge of the Family five until after the transaction had been made, are members of the Prince ton A. A. club of Watertown and are under the most strict orders to report for duty with the silk mills aggregation in Danbury on the Sabbath. The failure of any and all of the named players to participate in the Hat Town to- morrow afternoon means disquaii- fication from Harry Fleischer's club. The situation leaves man. ager Jack Dwyer and his assistant, one William Gaughan in what might be termed, a most peculiar situation. Their chances of pick Ing up other players are rather slim because 1t seems that they have used about everyone within the radius embraced by the league charter, and it isn't very likely that the boys are going to let bygones be bygones just for an opportunity to play with the Irish  Americans.
 At any rate someone Is holding the satchel and 1t isn't Eddie Bag ley of the Sacred Hearts who will be out there tomorrow as he has been in the past doing all that he can to defeat the leaders.
 Fast Action
 ln the finals the Brooklyns are favored to defeat the recently strengthened Thomas Club who will show several Terryville play CTS in addition to those who have been supplying their thrills since the beginning of the season. Man ager Myles Kelley of the B. A. c. has issued a statement that the Brooklyns are out to win the tour nament and will start right in Knowing that the loss of one game means elimination.

ISCHCK SUPERB
 IN CENTRAL WIN
 OVER WILEY CLUB
Undefeated Bridge port Combine Wins 3O-22
 Game From Wildcats
By GEORGE T. DILLON

Undoubtedly the greatest all around scholastic product seen on a chalked surface in years, Johnny Schick. elongated center of Bridge port Central, gave a crowd of ap. proximately 1000 an exhibition of everything that makes critics sit up and take notice as he explained and shot the Park Cityites to a 30 to 22 victory over Wilby high on the latter's floor last night.
 Wotta Man!
 It was the Hilltoppers ninth straight victory in the Naugatuclv Valley league circuit and their 1etn consecutive of the season, record Coach Eddie Reilly can credit mostly to his sensational and hard working pivot man, the key man of the well drilled red and white combine. Shick concisely proved that he is all-state center and as he left the floor via personals in the last two minutes the crowd showed their appreciation of his enviable performance by a rousing ova. ton.
 Headed for Yale Tourney
 Shick played the bucket to per- lection, took the ball off his own blackboard with. consistent ease ss he put his size to advantage, fed his mates with set shots time and time again and blocked countless passes with his rangy hands and arms. Central now seems a cer- tainty for the Yale tourney as they have but four more games to play tvN@ Ya Tn nrs@A H%..av home town rival, next week. The fact is that at the present writing only three teams have clinched tourney berths, Central, New Brit ain and Meriden.
 A Slow Start
 The Hilltoppers last night got off to a slow start as Vito Pom ponio held Schick to a lone field goal in the first period, and the Leemen led, z to 5. Schick added two more in the second quarter, but the green and white, thanks to some beautiful shots by Frankie Darlington, retained their lead at the half, IS to IS.
 Great Third Period
 No sooner had the third period got underway than the visitors bonn barded the irons with Calhoun, a clever colored lad, Schick and Vitale cutting the cords quite frc- qpent1y as their plays clicked and Eddie Reilly smiled. Wilby trailed as the last quarter started, 22 to 21, but were never in the ball game in the final ten minutes, Central holding them to a lone foul goal.
 New Referee Pleascs
 Ed Schroeder, well built New Haven official, made his debut here last night and deserves orchids for the splendid way he handled the contest. Besides making neat appearance Schroeder let the boys play basketball and gave but IT complimentary shots. The fans ears were not deafened with shrill blasts of the whistle, frequent occurrence in high school battles today.
