Many of those following the State Industrial League Basketball competition, particularly the championship Waterbury Clock outfit of this city and their fans are wondering just why it is that the SagaLou outfit of New Haven, winners of the Industrial honors in the Elm City allowed to rest for the finals to decide the state Stamford and Merden Inslcos all had to meet in eim- nation series before the final The Cockers for instance beat the Conde-Nast outfit Monday night, and must win from the nscos in Merden Thursday conditions that hardly be called ideal for basketball and then, should the Waterbury team win it's second elimination game it must go to beat the SagalLou outfit for the championship D. In other words the Cockers must win three while the New Haveners win the final before the title is settled
 The whole arrangement looks strictly like dollar and proposition based the drawing of the New Haven which hardly concdes with the ideals of sports nanshp supposed be recognized first and foremost by the sponsors of the tournament Merden, by the way does Industrial League and gets into the title con- petition the back of $5 entry fee

 Roman Soldier was a good g. year-old. He demnnstratcd first class form during the recent Flor ida meeting.

 "Or the champ can accept $l5.- 900 before sailing for Europe and $15,00O upon his arrival and wait until after the match to collect the balance"

until the Hialeah inaugural that he won a stake event.
 Roman Soldier finished last in the Hialeah Stakes after being jammed out of contention, and then defeated good field in an al- lowance race at a mile.
 His Bahama Handicap was a corker. He carried 126 pounds and defeated II crack animals, giving away as much as IS pounds.
 But in the Florida Derby, he found he could not carry his weight, suffer repeated interfer- ence, and defeat such a Ally as Black Helen at her best.
 Roman Soldier definitely has proved he can carry the Derby weight of 126 pounds, and that he can run in the mud. But, since he comes from a line of sprinters, nc still has to prove he can carry his undoubted speed over the mile and q quarter course of the Derby.
