A veteran campaigner in the peace
time routes of the 18th Field Artil-
1ery since 1919, Nippy had intrenched
himself in the affections, superstitions
and traditions of the unit.
Everybody turned out for a mill
tary funeral given the old boy at the
dog cemetery near Arlington. The
horses still droop.
Camden Getting Ready.
TOR those who already are cast
ing suspicious glances at the
weather forecasts around here,
remembering the collapse of local fox
hunting last February and March,
these words from Harry Kirkover's pet
Southern child, Camden, S. c., will be
OF more than passing interest.
Work is under way already to i'm
prove the course for the hunter trials
on February 81 and the Washington's
birthday races the following afternoon
The hrose show has been set for
March IS and 16, to fit in with Aiken's
dates Of March 20 and 81. The Caro-
lima Cup races will be held on March
80. Drag hunting already has begun
So has polo. So have the festivities.
Need any further encouragement?

Really a Tough Break.

Really Tough Break.
TIER hard luck was more than
II matched, perhaps, by that Of
Edna johnson, who stumbled
on q spare, fouled and lost eight
pins that would have given her first
place.
The raised handicaps had the
planned effect Of saving the bulk
Of the $500 prize money for the duff
fers. Not more than three or four
bowlers of more than average rank
made their way into the mems pay
off. However, the girl stars Jared
much better.
From beginning to end the tourna-
ment, which drew a record field Of
approximately 1900, with preliminaries
being held at all alleys, was the snap
piest yet sponsored by The Star. That
the annual event essentially is a duff
fers' party was more apparent than
ever. the stars gracefully accepting the
heavy handicapS against them and
the n-of-the-mine bowler competing
as much IN the spirit Of play as for
cash. This Is the spirit sought from
the beginning when the first Star
tournament was held in 1929.
The prize list announced informally
yesterday was gotten together in a
Jiffy to make press time, with q num-
per OF score sheets still to come. so
the tournament Committee begs the
indulgence of any who perforce NAV
be stricken from it.

Three Beat Record,

4 IDED by handicaps, the tourna-
n ment record of 679 was beaten
by walker, with 20-692; Melvin
E. Rock, $3.50, and C. A. Robinette,
40-681. Lorraine Gulli,s mark for
the girls, GOT, made last year, stood up
with nine sticks to spare, as Mrs. Ise-
mann rolled 50-598, Edna johnson
45-597 and Miss GULL 597 from
scratch.
No champion ever went to defeat
more gallantly than Lorraine GULL.
Battling handicaps calculated to daunt
the heartiest, she went about her
task with utmost confidence and all
but succeeded. Her last-box strike
will be remembered as one of the
greatest bids for victory ever made
on a bowling alley. That she counted
two pins too few to win was a cruel
trick of fortune.
Mrs. Isemann took the first prize
and it was the most popular success
in the seven years history of the
tournament, but Miss GULL came
away with honors befitting her status
as the queen of duckpins. For the
second straight year she shot the
high scratch score of her division
and in doing so established what is
believed TO be a record for women
by making q quadruple strike.

New Haven, Jan 18--The New Haven Eagles, eager to go places after their taste of higher life in the Can-Am Hockey league, bat tied the Providence Reds to a 2-2 tie last night and will today move on to Boston for a clash with the Bruin Cubs tonight.

 Probable lineup for Sundays game:
 New Haven-Moore goal; Mitch- ell, right defense; Beisler, center: Jackson, center; Mcbride, right wing; Heximer. left wing.
 Quebec-Cox, goal; Bourglat, right defense; Leduc. left defense; Lowery, center; Phillips, right wing and Runge left wing.

IN. BRITAIN BOYS
 CLUB CONQUER
 N.E.Y. VARSITY
Visitors Finish Strongly to COp-34-25 Decision;
 BOchneit SpadOla Star

Before record crowd of 300 fans which filled every nook and corner of the North End "" floor, the crack New Britain Boys Club basketeers staged sensa .ional ral- ly in the closing three minutes to tcpple' the North End "Y" team, 34-25 in a whirlwind finit.l last night.
 For the better part re game, the two teams battled nip and tuck with the Red and Black clad outfit from the North End out in front at the half, 15-8 and with the score tied 1S-18 at the end of the third period.
 With three minutes to go, Dom Spadola, former Wilby star, put Carl Longo's club in the van with a field goal and foul shot, 25-24. Then in rapid succession, Johnny Bochnert, a sharp shooting guard, and Jimmy Zdanzukus, an elusive forward counted five field goals be- tween them to turn { game into a rout.
 Spadola led the North Enders' attack with three field goals and five free awards for a total of eleven points, while Rochnert and Zdanzukus stood out for the in- vaders. FreI Jacovino, another for mer Wilby ace, forced to take over the center post because of the ab- sence of Ralph Santopietro, played a great floor game for his club. The aporn.

ENTRIES FLOCK
 IN FOR EASTERN PIN SWEEPSTAKES
Sixteen BOwlers From Connecticut Already
 Lined Up

Many entries have been re- ceived for the Fifth Annual East ern Sweepstakes, which will take place on Saturday. February 18th. at the Lucky Strike alleys, Willi- mantle.
 So far 16 Connecticut bowlers have registered and like number from the South and 1t is not at all unwise to predict that the total entries will number more than 50.
 Nick Tronsky will be the de- lending champion and all the win ners of the previous years with the exception of Bradley Mandley will take part. It is the fifth year of the classic and the following are the winners and scores for the past four years:
 1931-Bradley Mandley-Wash- ington-1,938.
 1892 - Babe Dugas - Taftville -1979.
 1883 - Carl Frisk - Hartford -2,079.
 1884 - Nick Tronsky Willi- mantle - 1,946.
 Washington so far is supporting the tourney in fine style, having sent in nine entries with BaIti- more ranking next with four and Annapolis two and more is expect ed from the southern states.
 On the List
 Frank Barber has entered eight under the colors of the Blue Rlb- bons and the Hartford district has supplied the majority of the bal ance. New London. Norwich, Mer- iden, Bridgeport, Waterbury. Tor rington, MiddletOwn, Norwalk, Danbury and Stratford have yet to be heard from and since these cit les ad town boast any number or good bowlers they should add ma terially to the number of entries.
 George B. Parker of Willimantlc is secretary, with George l.. lse- mann of Washington in charge or the games with Charles l.. Harding of Westport acting as official scorer.
 Much interest Is being taken in the competition, for the Eastern now ranks as the second most inn portant individual contest in so Tar as Duckpin bowlers are concerned and the outstanding bowlers of the country will take part. Fifth Eastern Sweepstakes Entries

toDNldl lO
 Naugatuck, January IS - one of the most unusual teams playing bask etball at the Y. M. c. A. these days is the "" Junior Leaders five. This outfit Is composed Of small boys and at glance they would not seem to have a chance with the larger teams they meet
 But it is again d case or ap- pearance is deceptive for the Leaders are living up to their name right now, winning all or their games and in future years they will be one of the best nVes in the borough if they continue to improve and display the fine form they are now showing.
 Teamwork
 Their passing is the outstanding point of the quintet at present. They shoot the ball around, over head, underhand, loop passes ana short snappy throws. so fast that their opponents usually don't know where the ball is until it arches toward the hoop. One of the best points of the team Is the wiling ness of all the members to pass. No matter whether man is in a four position to try a shot he VIII not shoot 1t unless the ball Is close to the hoop. Instead he will pass and as a result of this sort of work fine exhibition of teamplay ls given by tn efive every time they take the floor.
 As vet they are unbeaten this sea son, although they have not had setups. Robert Anderson is captain of the five. and other-members are Donald Gunnoud. Tom Edmonds, Stanley Janik, Gene Montanari and Frank Neary. Much of the excel lent work of the team is due to the patient and, effective coaching or tehlr manager and coach, Dan Sweeney.

 "Dynamite" McIsaac, diminutive guard of the losers, was the hit of the evening. She demonstrated plenty of intestinal fortitude and proved a Canadian Royal Mountie, for she always got her man, but how she got him was another story, tackling being her best wea- pon. The Co-Eds showed a sharp shooter in the person of Mildred Crowley. who cut the cords for six double several of which were long shots.

SCHOOL RIVALS IN FIRST GAME
 OF HOOP SEASON
Lee Squad Has Lost But One Game to Date;
 Crosby Uncertain

Uncertainty of the outcome of Crosby -Wilby basketball games has been an attractive element to the annual conflicts each season. Tomorrow night the boys meet again, this time in the first of their two games on the Wilby floor, with the commercial cagers a strong favorlte to take the game, as result of their consistent play since the season opened los- ing but one game, a tough, three- point affair to Central of Bridge. port in the Park City.
 Arrangements for the contest to- morrow wound up this afternoon by Coaches Bill Schofield and Jim- my Lee, who have agreed upon Billy Coyle of Wallingford as the official for the game, which is scheduled for 8:30 o'clock. Pro. liminary action will concern the reserve teams of the two schools to begin at 7:30 p. m.
 Going Bad
 Crosby has lost five games in competition thus far and does not seem to be able to work smooth ly enough to clinch any game, as their work against Central indi- cated this week. Loss of Koch and Joyce made a great differ- ence in the Crosby play from the time they departed from the game. Wilby's attack centers around Freddy Sullivan with plen. ty of help forthcoming from Pom ponio and Saldukas and StoIfl, Darlington being depended upon for scoring within the Wilby fore court.
