|CLUB. CADETS INI
 |DANDURY TONITE. |FOR HOOP GAME
Two Games With Catholic Club 5 Off Local
 Schedule

The Boys Club Cadets journey to Danbury tonight where they will be opponents to the Catholic Com. munity Five of that city. The game is the first of home and home series and 1t is hoped that this booking will fare out better than the other with another leading team of that city. The Big Five of Dan- bury twic1 scheduled to appear here refused to take the floor We'd nesday night when their demand for travelling expenses was turned down.
 Beaten Once
 The Big Five acknowledged the superiority of the Cadet array who trounced the former team on their own court and to make a worth while showing secured the services of many stars and professionals which ran up the expense. The Clubbers repudiated the Hub Town ers' requested by reminding them that no money was involved in their first pairing and that their financial state is not as good as might be- expected of top notch team. The rival managers failed to compromise and after much discuss sion the Hub Towners were sent on their way black-balled from the Cadet schedule.
 The opponents for tonight rate on par with the Danbury Guards who feature Ike Kern and some of the tops in state circles. The Catholic Five threw a real scare into the Full Fashions last week only to lose by a four point margin after being in the lead for the first part of the last canto.
 Sheen. Damelio Play
 The Catholic Club list victories over some of the better teams of the state and would be picked to win were 1t not for the fact that Paddy Damelio and Matty Sheehan are to sec action in tonight,s tilt. Accompanying the young soldiers will be the St. Joe lassies or the Co-Eds who will perform against the Catholic lassies in the prelim. All making the trip are urged to be on hand at the club at 6:45 p. m
 Challenge Polls
 It seems that the management of the Polls Wonder 5" is making his selections of opponents from records or scores completed with the Boys Club Cadets. Such has been the case with the St. Johns Big Five who defeated the Cadets in the last minutes of play on floor the size of 8 matchbox. the Bristol Pros who were defeated by the Cadets in an overtime, the Jacksons who shaded the Hopeville Speedboys and who in turn were trimmed by the Cadets and now the Full Fashions by vir- tue of their win over, the Cadets will be the probable opponent next week. Manager Fitzpatrick in mak- ig his selection must realize that whatever record was compiled by Torrington was done 50 on their home floor and their claim on the Naugatuck Valley title Is as weak as straw since they were thor oughly trimmed by the Cadets in return game and were even check ed by the U. s. Rubber combine. Were 1t not for the fact that We'd nesday $ the Cadet home night they would otherwise consider an engagement and give the Polls men a real tussle.

 The leading Middleweights de- defeated the last place Welter- weights in three games. thus se- curing a betetr hold on first place.
 The Heavyweights with R. Colan- gelo breaking two league records, defeated the Lightweights three games to climb into second place. The fast stepping Heavyweights have won ten of their last twelve games to climb out of the cellar and now occupy second place in the league.
 The disappointment of the league are the Lightweights who have dropped seven straight games. The Lightweights who occupied first place for the better part of the sea- son are now in third place. Better get going Lightweights if you want to finish in the money.
 The Welterweights are the hard- luck team of the league. The team composed of two first year men are handicapped by lack of experience. Watch out you first division teams because Costentino and Calvo ex- pect to cause plenty of trouble in the remaining two rounds.
