 The local first team is looking forward to next Saturday when 1t will participate in an eight team elimination tournament which will be played in Providence. R. I.

WASHINGTON HILLS. AND TRIBES SWAMP
 CITY LEAGUE FOES
EmeraIds and CarringtOns Out of Race for Title;
 Harnick Went We'll

The Naugatuck Emeralds, city league basketball champions of last season but a disorganized group of half-hearted players this year, were eliminated from the competition this season when they lost a game to the Washington Hills yesterday afternoon by q margin of twenty points. The final count was 53 to 33. Ironically enough, 1t was the Hills that the Emeralds knocked over last year in a playoff for the championship. The Carringtons lost to the Trib- unes 40 to 19, the losers of second round games which began yester- day being automatically elimina- ted under a recent agreement of all managers. Less than $35 worth of customers attended the double- header.
 The Hills started with rush yea- terdAy, running up 1928 lead in the first ten minutes, but Nauga- tuck put on one of its character istic comebacks to trail by only four points at half time, 18-22. They came out to tie up the game at IA all, but then the Hills got going so well they did not stop un- til the final whistle with Cavan- augh, Keefe, Mccormack and Charley Lewis counting steadily to run up the big margin.

Worries OF World Champions Begin As Dizzy Dean Holds Ou
TO-DAY,S SPORT PARADE

you could. She used to box all around and it wasn't long before she had exhausted the supply Of women opponents. So she started boxing the men, and she whipped as many as whipped her. l saw her box u four -rOund exhibition with John l.. Sullivan, and John told me afterwards that she was one of the fastest, smartest and hit- tingest opponents he ever faced. And Hattie could take a punch. I've seen men nail her square on the jaw with full right, only to have her wade in and put over the kayo."
 We asked MT Adler what he thought was the trouble with box ing to-day.
 "Only one thing-the fighters. Get good fighters and you won have to worry about referees and judges and commissions. Referees never bothered old Sam. He let his fists do the refereeing, and when he landed with that right of his, which didn't have to travel six inches to kill you, there never was any trouble picking the right winner. All they had pick was the guy off the floor.
 MT Adler required deep thought before he could name the greatest horse he had seen. He didn't have much trouble recalling the finest race he ever laid his eyes on, though--it was the GaZells stakes at Gravesend some 35 years aga when Oregon, Holida and French Park, with Mclaughlin, Littlefield and Morrissey up, finished so close that they could have all used the same bit.
 There never was finish like that one," Adler said. and what made it better was that they ran head to head from almost the mid dle of the back stretch. There never was a foot between them"
 Adler gave the nod to Equipoise only after long and careful con sideration of Man O'War, and when asked what made him like Ekkie better than Big Red,( he said he didn't know unless 1t was that Ekkie won his heart the first time he ever stepped on the track. Jack doesn't think much of mod ern pockeys-said they were pig
 
 as Isaac Murphy and Mas Turner and Tod Sloan. He rated Mack Garner as the greatest of modern jockeys over q distance, and Wayne Wright and Bobby Jones for sprints.
 What about Sande?" we asked.
 Wasn't as good as Fator. And I'm not alone in that opinion. Sam Hildreth, who had both boys, used to tell me that Fator was the bet ter of the two. Sande wasn't as good as Pony Mcatee. either. You know. he never did beat Pony in drive down the stretch. When ever Sande ard Pony hooked up around the eighth pole for q drive home. you could go and collect on Mcatee.'

Critics Cause Al
 Niemec to Resign

MeriAen, Feb Al Niemiec, Boston Red Sox infielder anl St Stanislaus A. c. basketball teams, have come to the parting of the ways.
 Last season, Al guided the men s team to the championship of the Polish circuit. This season, under his direction, the Saints are in second place with a fighting chance for the title. But fans close to the team and official attaches have been subjecting his reign as coach to verbal attacks for long time. The climax was reached at last Tuesdays losing game with the West Haven Red Devils, and Me- mice handed in his resignation. The critical campaign was par ticularly unbearable because Al re- ceived no pay for his work. Niemiec expects to leave for the southland in about a month to en- ter spring training with the Red Sox at Sarastoga, Fla.

The huddle finally developed into a debate, with Dizzy trying to prove, against odds, that he was the whole Cardinal team.
 "Yes, but we led in eight offen- sive departments" Frisch said. And nor ethan once that infield of ours came in black and blue from knocking down bullets the hitters smacked at us when you were pitching"
 Branch Hickey, vice president and general manager of the Card inals, angered by Dizzy's sudden decision to become holdout, re- fused to attend the conference. He was in an adjoining room shaving and popped in about this time with father on his face, waving a razor. He tried to interrupt.
 "G'wan back in there and cut your throat" Dizzy said, and kept the field against him limited to two bosses.
 Dizzy explained that when he phoned St Louis from his Braden- ton, Fla, home last December and agreed to terms offered then, he thought $15,000 contract with general foods was contingent upon his being signed to his baseball contract.
 "But after studying the situation over" he said, "I can't see where the general foods contract has any thing to do with whether I'm sign ed for baseball. That's why I have- nut signed and won't sign for ST.. 500.
 For four years he has been i'm. posed upon financially in the Card- inal "chain gang" he said. His cludes one year at Houston in the Texas League and three at St Louis. approxlmates $22.5O0.
 But I'm going to stop right now" he told Frisch and Breadon loud enough for Hickey to hear it in the next room.
