NAUCATUCK IN SECOND LOSS TO
 STATE CHAMPS
GovellO Bad News" Again in 3S-33 Victory; Play
 Pawtucket Tonight
(Special to The Democrat)

Especial to The DemOcrat)
 Providence, R. l., March 19-Man- chester, Connecticut and Pawtucket, Rhode Island will shoot 1t out for the New England interscholastic basketball championship tonight at 8 o'clock on the spacious court Of Brown University. That situation came about when Naugatuck, Con- necticut runners-up to the Nutmeg state champions last week finished behind them again, this time on the short end of 38-33 count while Pawtucket had little trouble elimin- ating Westfield, Mass, by 8 43-29 margin in the other sem1-final game.
 Ten Good Players
 Manchester lost no time starting what with its two complete teams, which ran up 19 to lead after eight minutes of play, at which point the second" set of Manches- ters took over and gained a 28 to Is edge at half time. Naugatuck put on it's customary drive in the final pair of periods, chopping the lead down to eight points before going into the final heat, where Naugy almost caught up with the young men from Manchester, who held on to a 33-31 lead which they added to before the final whistle. Red Gavello, the boy who had the K" on Naugy at New Haven was still clicking at Providence it seems, for mainly through his work in the final five minutes did Manchester pull out with a five point edge and earn chance to take home the New England trophy to stand beside the Connecticut cup they already won. Czaplicki, Mariana and Cuddy for Naugatuck which also got Il of 20 free throws for point apiece were standouts but Rose, Govello and Schieldge of Manchester were also there in the well known clutch, proving the main cogs of a little better basketball machine than Naugatuck which never stopped try ing to beat ten players, one as good as the other.

OLYMPIC GAMES
 IN SEPTEMBER

Cairo, Egypt, March 19.-(UP).- Avery Brundage, president of the American Olympic association, said today that the United States would campaign to have the 1940 Olympic games in Tokyo shifted back to their original date of August 25-Sept. 28.
 The international Olympic com- mittee, needing a statistical report of Japanese climatic conditions, de- cided Tokyo would be too torrid and moved the games up to Sept. 21- Oct. 8. Brundage fought the change on the grounds that it would handi- cap participation by American col- lege students.
 "It certainly was blow" Brund- age said, but we were outvoted. The I. o. c. meets again in London in June next year, and we plan to fight for reinstatement of the original date, but that may be too late for Japan to make the change"

CLARK PINS RAE

Riley Makes Podubny Quit Again-Casey Here for
 Next Show

George Clark, the 220 Scotch Dazzler and Tommy Rae the Spring field slicker were every bit as good as they were figured to be, their main bout going the regulation limit of three falls. Clark winning the de- cision when Rae missed one of his flying tackles. A bottle-heaving ex- hibition by gallerite and wood- throwing stunt by Clark livened up the show, the boys going nearly 25 minutes before the first fall which Clark won with leg and body lock, while Rae came through with fast fall from a drop-kick after ' min utes and the good old crotch and body slam won the match for the Scotch slugger in less than four minutes prior to the final fall. Steve (Crusher) Casey of Ireland is to headline the next show in about two weeks.
 Tough Stuff
 Pat Riley of Texas outroughed John Podubny of Russia but not be- fore B minutes had elapsed and the men went at it pretty hard. Po- dubny got his usual punch in the mouth, but he still flashes those two gold teeth, come what may. Al Getz of Manchester lost fall to The Shiek after some funny work and a pickup by the bearded Shiek who slammed Getz to the floor be- fore pinning him. John Marshall of Denver and Billy Doyle went to a half hour draw and showed some good wrestling before their time was up. Some 600 fans saw the show and were well entertained.

It Happened! Cars Take Different Routes Home But {.
 Meet in Head on Crash!

Double trouble came yesterday for Frank Stanevich, 2l. of 187 North Main street.
 First, he lost his job as a driver.
 Second, he was arrested on a reckless drviing charge.
 Motor Patrolman George Mo- Elligott tells 1t this way: Stane- vich went to Union City yesterday afternoon with John P. Wartkus of sol Washington avenue, to bring back a newly-purchased delivery truck for the Lithuanian Mer- chandise Corp, Stanevich's em- ployer. Wartkus drove the new truck back, while Stanevich drove private car.
 The two vehicles took different routes, but came together at Por- ter and South Leonard streets. : They came together 50 strongly that the brand-new truck was knocked over on its side and badly damaged, while the car driven by Stanevich was also damaged.
 The company, hearing of the accident, dismissed Stanevich. As if that wasn't enough, Motor Pa- trolman McElligott arrested Stan evich on a reckless driving charge and ordered him to appear in traffic court Monday.

Heat Waues!

Youngsters at one of the city playgrounds managed to get them selves free shower baths this morning. The playground has water bubbler, and by deflecting the water with their fingers, the boys and girls were able to take turns at getting a creditable show CT. Of course, their clothes got wet, but 1t was too hot to worry about that.
 The Democrat received many calls asking the time of high tide at New Haven and Milford, in- dicating that many planned to flee to the seashore to escape the broiling heat of the city.
 Some sort of a prize should be given to the several fire commits sioners who decided that yester- day afternoon was an appropriate time to decide what kind of over- coat the firemen should wear next winter.
 The city parks were crowded long after dark last night with hundreds searching for a breeze. Scores stretched out full-length on the grass and tried to snatch forty winks."
 Several factories sent employees in some departments home early yesterday afternoon because of the heat.
 Operators of summer resorts are hopeful that the heat spell will last over the week -end. This would give them a chance to recoup some of the losses caused by pre- vious rainy weather during the summer. Resorts had virtually no income during the recently spell of more than 8 week.
 Owners of cottages at nearby lakes and at the shore are dis covering that they have hundreds of friends these days. Guests are dropping in at all hours, just, of course, Ito say hello"

Board .SuDelters In Discussion
 On Ouercoats!

With the temperature close to the 100 mark, several mem- bers of the board of fire com missioners discussed yesterday afternoon, of all things, what type of overcOat should be worn by firemen next winter.
 The commissioners, with sweat pouring from their bodies, agreed informally to have the newly-appointed firemen wear fuil-length Overcoats. Bremen now owning the shorter over coats, or "reefers" will be al- lowed to retain them.
 The board did not hold for mai meeting, since a quorum was lacking. However, official action will be taken by the board at It's next meeting.
 It may be that discussion of overcoats helped the commits sioners to think of winter and perhaps get a little cool, men tally, but it Is a safe bet that they were the only ones who were worrying about overcoats yesterday afternoon.
