PEARL ST COMMUNITY
 HOUSE NOTES
BY CHARLES A. GERVASE

Hello everybody! Here I am back again with more highlights from the Pearl Street Community House.
 Phil Cohen, stellar captain of the Fulton had the spectators speechless when from the three quarter stripe line he threw what was to be an intended pass through the straps for points. Chubby Moe of the Burkes five again brought the crowd to its feet when he sunk side shot to tie the score in Q game against the Melrose, and thereby forcing the game to go into an extra period. The game was finally won by the Melrose 15-13.
 Joe Landolfi, star Wilby player, came up here the other night and defeated "Blackhand Shot" Bo- vino who claims the Ping -Pongs championship of the house.
 Playing checkers is starting to get popular. Wherever you look there are sure to be about a half dozen boys playing.
 The minstrel held here last Thursday night was success.
 The fight for alleys by the pin boys sure is hot. On Saturday night there is always several boys stand ing near the door awaiting for the physical director to open.
 "Chink" Burke and his buddy, "King David" Holmes are always the first ones down at the door, knob, to be first to grab the alleys. Charles Nardozzi, St Thomas Re serve, upset the dope the other day when they eked out a one point decision over the league leading Meteors in an exciting game.
 Little Joe Sileo of the Corsairs has started to talk about baseball. You know he is an ardent follow CT of the Yankees and has high praise for Tony LaZZerri.
 That new team the Y. P. R. A. has the honor of having a minis ter's son on the team in Pete Zuba. Whenever they play the boys shouldN not lose their temper and begin to roar.
 The Maroons basketball team, composed of beginners, put up a stiff battle against the Burkes five. They lost the decision by tho score 16-12.
 Cheshire's basketball team came up here again with a stronger team to play the Demos. Their new men worked all right until the last half, then the Demos began to wram up and started clicking. We'll you can imagine the rest. The final score was 43-20.
 The Bulldogs who had a. pretty good team have dropped out of the league. Their is rumor around that the Y. r. R. A. may take their place in the final rounds.
 The Corsairs had a mean trick played on them the other night. After going down to the Boys Club to play the Aces they were told that they could not play on &C., count of a mixup in the schedule. Better luck next time Corsairs!

 The Falcons held the Speed boys to lone basket and had little trouble .chalking up an 1895 vic- tory in the final game of the night. B. Labutis stood out for the Fall cons while Berardi featured for losers.

DOYLE, IRISH RING KING, AFTER BAER
 AND CHAMPIONSHIP
Dempsey to Try Out Young Giant Next Week;
 CrOOner, Actor Too
BY LAWTON CARVER United Press Staff COrrcSDOndent) ]

kOulLcu FFtSS StAH correspondent
 New York, Feb SUP P)-Jack Doyle, a fighting Irishman, tenor and movie actor, looked over the city to-day and was just about ready to admit he was in the land of clover.
 The heavyweight champion of within a few months, but first will make an extended exhibition tour He planned to start training next week.
 The common weakness of heavy weights from the British Isles, in- ability to take it on the chin, does- mt worry Doyle. He has other means of livelihood if convinced he's not destined to be Baer's suc- cesgOr.
 Upon his arrival yesterday he gave vocal demonstration bearing down on When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" accompanied by ham, mering and saving in Jack Demp- sey's new restaurant. Listeners agreed he probably was on the radio abroad as he claimed.
 Then if Doyle's voice cracks up and his chin becomes glass, he still isn't licked. The movies remain. and Doyle let 1t be known that he played the title role in picture called "McCluskey, The Sea Rov- err. Modestly he speaks for him. self:
 Scrapper
 "But I am not here to sing or to act, although I do both well" he said. II am here to fight and shan't leave until have won the heavyweight championship"
 Doyle stands 6 feet, and has curley black hair and blue eyes. Except for shoulder breadth and man-sized fists he doesn't look like a fighter. Although at 22 he is a veteran campaigner of five years. starting at IT when he was a mem- Der of the Irish Guards.
 He's almost % good looking to be a fighter" Dempsey said in a whisper while Doyle was engrossed in "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling But any guy who can belt out 36 fellows inside of two heats in 37 fights as this kid has done must pitch something besides a powder puff"
 Maybe he crooned lem to sleep"' a wag cut in.
 OOu cure nOW Hc uOcS II, Dempsey replied, "so long as he keeps 1t up."
 Jack Is "In" &
 Dempsey has been cut in on Doyle's contract to act as advisor, instructor and assistant on the tour.
 Good Time Charley Friedman. who discovered Doyle recently while visiting abroad, revealed that the only fight Doyle has failed to win was one with Jack Peter son, British champion, whom he bounced around for two rounds only to be disqualified for pitching a punch out of bounds.
 "He can box, he can punch and he can take a punch." Friedman said.
 You are sure he can take it?" Dempsey asked.
 Next week Dempsey is going to put on the gloves with Doyle and see.

OLIVER CLlNCHES
 MERIDEN VICTORY
 OVER PRINCETONS
Especial to The DemOcrat)

Meriden, Feb 7.--Scoring steadi- ly at the proper time, Meriden En- dees made their series of basket ball games with the Princetons of Watertown all even at St Rose Community court tonight before 1000 fans with well-earned 30 to 22 victory over the classy cagers from Watertown. It was Bill Oliv- er's scoring at vital moments of the game that just about won the contest as his IT points is mute testimony of just how much he meant in the game, though Johnny Schee's long range popping was worth eight points. the margin of victory to the Meriden club. Matty Sheehan and Ed Stevens went well for Watertown. Summary:

League Records
 High single-Brooks 1858. High three--Tato 419.
 High No Mark-Conway, Carl srud 97.
 High team single-Stock 602.
 High team three-Roll--16S4. After looking over the above teams standing in the league, with two teams tied for first place, and only three games difference be- tween first and sixth position and but three weeks to go, it's a toss up, as to what team will actually win the championship. On the other hand the officials of the league are pleased with its great success, in its first year with 12- team affair.
 Bruno Mariani, star southpaw anchor man on the Shipping Room team went into the charmed circle last week as he rolled three games of 133-132-147 for a total of 4i2, seven pins less than Bill Tato's 419 which is high three of the league.
 Al Van Megroot, whose ability 10 roll his big games when the Noera clan need them, did just that in the first game last week, Van rolled 116 with 9 spares and 2 strikes.
 The Machinist and Rod Mill pu. on a little act of initiating a mara thon when in the last box of their third game, both anchor men elect to stay execution, waited for the other to bowl, the score was so close. After flag pole sitting for about half hour, both team cap- tains told their anchor men, Clarke of the Rod Mill, Miller of the Machinists to so ahead and bowl, the result was the Rod Mill lost ~. .a
