By DAVIS ]. WALSH

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-This
isn't to be a blanket disapproval
Of everybody. For one thing, I
seem to be a little handicapped.
I don't know everybody. All I feel
able to do about that right now
is abide by the limitations and
call as many shots as 1 may
against those who are carefully
calling all too few.
I'm talking about the foot
ball officiating racket, with its
"homerS," buck-evaders, look-the-
other-Way-erS. pamderers, poseurs
and general all-around punks.
This used to be type but it's get
ting a little too general, notably
in college football. Tom Thorp
and many others who work both
the college and professional games
do not fall within this arraign-
ment, an excellent reason why
they're hired by both games.
The pros, as a matter Of fact,
want everything called as it is
seen, because they know that the
turn Of a game can come that
way and that it all evens up in
the end. don't say that the col
Ieges fail to feel likewise; only
that too many officials are in
there suSpecting that the colleges
don't.
They're not looking at the days
game; they're looking at another.
two or three weeks ahead, and
maybe the mortgage on the fur.
niture and other urgent and
valuable considerations. This nat
urally distracts their attention.
1 don't profess to have a Solu-
ton. In fact, I probably haven't
even a sound suggestion. All I
can think of is nominal ante
from the receipts to support re-
gional organizations which, in
turn, will appoint and pay the
officials, thus radically shifting
the burden of responsibility. Off.
hand, anyhow, it would seem that,
if an official felt any obligation
under that set-up, it would be
strictly to himself.
There would be no need-or
maybe I'm just wrong again-for
the spectacle presented earlier this
season in which the entire stands
buzzed with the flagrant and OBJ
vious fact that on eight Of every
10 plays the home team was off
side. TO put the matter charit-
ably. everybody saw it except the
head linesman.
In several more recent games,
one of which I saw, there seemed
to be quite few tough offside
decisions, some of which were
not called. 1t probably was only
coincidence, Of course, but it
happened that the home team was
largely the offender; SO perhaps
it was simpler to fall into q pro-
found reverie.
That's what makes it tougher
to take when they suddenly rouse
themselves and call a couple for
the home team, as 1 understand
happened in another game re.

American Fastener Bowling League

Charlie Gefty) Nardezzi and Elmer Kiessling are still betting cigars, but it seems to me that Lefty always comes through the goal line, but don't worry Elmer, we'll see you smoke yet.
 C. Hoebel is back on the alleys again and he's going to be good boy. He has already promised to leave his hammer and wrenches on his bench--catch- on, fellows.
 A. Krieger and r. Linden are going to team up together and l personally think that we will all be seeing some bowling exhibitions before the end of the season.
 Captain M. Brienza and T. Par ziale have been working together the last few days, and heaven knows what their long discussions were, but little birdie told me that it was all about their good bowling this year. They also eX- changed compliments.
 r. Kline, the off and on man of the league, is going to stick this time. in order to join our league parade the night of our banquet. and not be- left by the wayside.
 Bill Lyttle is doing some mighty fine work on knocking down pins. Keep 1t up, Bill.
 C. Schaaf, who started from the very bottom. has worked his aver age up nicely, although he is still at the tail and that's not his fault. because the boys are little too fast for him. he claims.
 Other members of the league that I have not mentioned will also be attacked upon my return. Until then we'll be bowling you.

STRONG JUNIOR BASKETBALL TEAM
 MEETS REYMONDS

The St. Mary's Juniors of New Britain with the reputation of be- ing the best junior team in the state will come to Waterbury to- morrow night to play the Raymond Hillies in a state junior league tilt. The Hardware City team already holds a victory over the Hillies and will endeavor to keep their unde- feated slate clean with their sec onw win over the local team.
 The Saints are coached by Fath- CT Mallory who Is well known here. having been an all around athlete at St. Thomas Seminary. Father Lawlor, native of this city. who isc urate at St. Mary's church, will come to Waterbury with Father Mallory and the St. Mary team to- morrow night.
 High Praise
 Following Is an article in regards to the game which appeared in Saturdays New Britain Herald: "The St. Mary quintet. one of the sensations of the state junior league basketball circles, will meet the Reymond Hillies in a return battle in the Brass City Tuesday night. The Saints have made for them selces place in state junior bas- ketball circles also and 1t is re- garded as the best outfit in its class in New Britain. New Britain will be out to defend its unbeaten rec ord and the local Saints will be fa- vored to win"
 The above article speaks for it. self and it looks like Red Gladney and his boys are going to be in for tough night. The Hillies however are confident of breaking the win ming streak of the Saints and if they play the brand fo ball they played Friday night when they trimmed the Princeton Juniors it looks as though fans will be in for real treat at the Y tomorrow night.

We all extend our congratula- tions to Jim Ranaudo the snap team anchor man for topping the league averages with a 110 mark. E. Conte is coming up slow this year with his pin-rocking jinx. but make him smell a bottle of good whiskey and he'll pull a ripple strike like he did two weeks ago when someone gave him a drink his average follows the leader with 1O4.
 By-the-way what has become of our distinctive spectator who sits in the balcony and keeps shouting his lungs out to his better known friends "Chop Two" better come around H. K. We mis your cheers.
 F. Kiesslihg must have done some promising to his captain about doing some first class bowl ing: nevertheless, he went and copped high single last week. Nice work, Frank: but we all like to sec you do 1t again some time.
 Danny LaSalata. better known as Danny Martin, Jr, came around telling us he was an amateur. but Iulieu ID COuhpielC Hio oe"sS However, he meant it, as a boxer because lately he has been bowling like q champ. Keep 1t up. Danny and you'll come out on top.
 We all request that Michaei Emanuel Salvador Fernandez and Danny Nardozzi stop chasing each other around the floor and get down to business and do some bowling hereafter.
 Some athletic shoe salesman must have been around to see the boys and succeeded in selling only but two pairs. Well, we all know the owners of those shoes because they're adopting the salesman's selling points and are now using them on the rest of us. We'll, maybe yes and maybe no. but they both think that we'll all be wearing bowling shoes soon.
 Ladies and gentlemen: We are going to create something new m sports. and that Is roller skate bowling. Tn order to keep up with our good friend M. Genevese we must wear skates you see all he has to do Is to get up and he's down again with his nose rubbing the floor this happens very often so by wearing skates, we'll be fast enough to catch him from folding up. we will save the game and the nose. too.

 Brooklyn A. c. proved surpris- ingly easy opposition for the Wash ington Hills, who beat them 46 to 32, due, in great measure, to some long and fancy shooting by Earl Lewis, the like of which is seen not more than once or twice a season. Earl counted eight field goals and free throws for a 20 point total that was just about the best individual effort of the season to date. Big Jack Keefe scored II points while Joe Swasey and Lefty Baron were the only threats in the Brooklyn attack.

Tomorrow night, for instance, Eddie Reilly and his Central high Cavaliers from Bridgeport will come to town for a contest with Crosby and right there is reason enough to predict that a real task confronts the Crosby crew before their city championship contest later in the week. Saturday, Crosby was knocked over by a ten point margin in Ansonia which dropped them down a bit more in the Nau- gatuck Valley League standing. Worthy Foes
 Wilby also has more than a lit- tie to worry about before the Cros. by game, for no less an opponent that Jack Mead's Warren Harding team will leave Bridgeport for this city on Wednesday when Wilby will be met t the local gym that eye ming. Harding, already winners over Crosby and undefeated in three valley league starts will be plenty tough for the Wildcats. who are, going at a nice clip. having buried Tofrington in a last period dash Saturday night in the New City winning 40 to though the teams were only 1915 at half time in the Wilby's favor.
