Naugatuck, Feb. 20.--0Teatiy erl- couraged by the Naugatuck high school teams splendid showing last night against Q highly-favored Tcr- rington team, local basketball fans are hoping for a victory over wtiby high in . game to be played here Saturday night.
 Naugatuck dropped . heart- breaker last night, 30-3T to Torrine" ton but the feature of hte game was tt fact that Naugatuck, which had been trolnced in the New City, out. played the visitors for three periods of the game. With less than 90 sec. onds to play and the Garnet lead- ind 37-36, big Gus Broberg slipped down the field and tossed . high snot that swlshed through the draperies to give Torrtngton the game.
 In Fine Form
 The local team, playing the best game 1t has shown this year, jump. cd into on early lead and were ahead 16.7 at the end of the first period but had this whittled down to 22.18 at half time. The first half was disastrous to Naugatuck in one way, that D, two of its regulars, Korowothy and Anderson were elected via the foul route, the for. rier in the second period and the latter in the first quarter. Had just one of these players remained in the game for the full time, the score might have been different. Weary and Bartosinscki filled in for them. Torrington last Haysradt on fouls.
 Broberg was the outstanding per. former with 14 points but Czaplicki Of Naugatuck was only one point be. hind him.

Stone, Reynolds Slam Solidly,
Help Yanigans Tie Regulars
In Criffs' htra-Canp Strife

Lewis, despite painful stone bruise
on his left hand, slashed out two clean
hits in three trips, while Travis pro-
vided the fielding feature of the day
when he roamed into right field for a
pop fly that Capt. Buddy Myer lost
in the sun.
The regulars, pecking away at the
offering of Young Ken Raffersberger,
took a 10 lead in the first inning,
scored three more in the second
frame and added another tally in the
third to grab a SO lead. Joe Bokina,
on the slab for the Regulars, limited
the Yanigans to two hits, supplied by
Stone and Reynolds.
Harry Oates, originally slated to
hurl for the YaniganS, was sent to
the slab for the Regulars in the last
three innings, while Frank Peticolas
was shifted from the Regs to the YAM
igans. If Manager Bucky Harris wish
was to make the game closer he sue
ceeded, although in fairness to Oates,
his support was not of the best.
Yanigans Hit Well.
THE Yanigans, obviously as power
full extensively as the Regulars,
raped Oates for five hits during his
stretch on the mound, but four errors
by Hill, Lewis, Miles and Bolton
helped in the manufacture of five
runs in the fourth frame to tie the
score. Had it not been for Sam Hol-
brook missing third base en- route
home during the Yanigsns big inning,
the Regulars would have taken a
beating. Both teams scored in the
fifth for the final runs.
Of the quartet of pitchers used,
Bokina and Peticolas easily were the
standouts. Although he was touched
for a run, Peticolas had an edge, Civ
ing up only one hit to Bokina's pair.
Cliff Bolton provided the longest hit.
A rip-snorting sock to the foot ball
field in the adjoining county. He got
only triple, blaming a strong ad-
verse wind, but it took four relays to
get the ball to home plate.
