Continued from 1st Sports Page)
Up until last nights meeting,
Lewis was the leading light with
three impressive victories and
ruled a heavy choice to take Stan
ley. But the latter surprised one
and all, and certainly rates such
an award.
Clagett was awarded the DR.. j.
A. Bonnette Trophy as the out
standing senior, and he, too,
earned it. Following his thrilling
victory over Billy Keheris the
week previous, Jackie went on to
outpoint his buddy, Carroll
Wright. last years winner, to gar
ner the lightweight crown. Jackie
is one of the improved fighters
in the District and figures to go
a long way in the All-EaStern
finals.
DeChard. making his first anna
teur start, turned in a classy per
formance in whipping Smiling
Leon Miller. of Fort Myer, for the
heavyweight title. Jim, 20-year-
old lad with a hard punch and a
fighting heart, came on in a SEN
Sational manner to all but knock
out his rival in the waning mo-
ments of the final bout of the
evening.
Miller, a dead-game battler
made things tough for Jim in the
early sessions. but once Jim got
his left hand working, it was all
over but the shouting. With a
few more bouts under his belt, he
is expected TO go long way.
Buster Miller, Sid Fischel's
clever little boxer, was the only
youngster to successfully defend
his title. Buster, meeting the
toughest opponent of his amateur
career in Gilbert Mayo, last years
118-pound kingpin, turned on
the heat and won hands down
in one of the biggest upsets of the
tournament. Miller outboxed Gill
bert. making the latter miss more
punches than he landed.

NAVY '5,' MINUS
81 ACES, HAS
DIFFICULT TASK

ANNAPOLIS, Dec. 22.-The boys
who wear Navy's Blue and Gold
on the basketball court this season
have a goal to achieve that will
tax their capabilities to the limit.
They're following team that won
II games and lost three last sea.
son.
And in attempting to equal that
record, they'll be without the SER
vices of Capt. Alan Mcfarland,
who for three years of varsity play
was one of the consistently high
scorers of the east. Frank Lynch,
center and one of the great de-
tenSlVe players of the east, is
gone, too, as are Bill Ingram and
Jack Mansfield, varsity guards.
Sounds like a blue note in a
sports symphony, but down here at
Crabtown on the Bay, they're Blue
and Gold clear through. Sky blue
in their enthusiasm and gold IN
their loyalty to Navy tradition of
strong basketball teams.
EXPECTS MUCH
Johnny Wilson, head basketball
coach, will tell you that he ex.
poets this years team to rank
with any others of his coaching
experience at Navy in expert ball
handling and keen court strategy.
Despite the loss of his four vet
Grams, Wilson will resume prac-
tice after the Christmas holidays
with a squad of % players. After
a few games this number will be
reduced to II. and Navy will sur
viVe or sink on the final Selec-
tionS.
George Ghesquire, end on the
football team, is center on the
court five. Dave Wolfe, who
played a whale of a game as
guard. and Charley Smith, a line
man on the football eleven, are
candidates for center on the bas-
ketball five. 1t is obvious that all
three Of them can't play the same
post at the same time. but they'll
be in there at intervals, perhaps
in relays.
MIDDLE STANDOUTS
Bob Laney is captain of the
Blue and Gold this season. He's
a guard and a good one. He and
GheSquire have been standouts in
the practice sessions that began
shortly after the football eleven
packed its gear away for the win
ter. Bob Gillette. who did not
play football, is a forward, one
of the veterans of last season, and
is teamed with Larry Gels.
Navy has fine schedule of IA
games, beginning on January 7
with Gettysburg College, and clos
ing on February Is with Army
coming to CrabtoWn on the Bay
Along the line are brushes with
Duke University. Pennsylvania,
North Carolina, Virginia and Co
lumbia. among others. The one
road game will be against Colum-
bia at New York on February 18.

TEAM OF SOPHOMORES

The oddltY of the success Of the
team is The fact that with one or
two benchwarming exceptions. the
entire team is composed of soph-
omores. Therefore tomorrow
night VIXEN the Ohio team takes
the floor against the Colonials.
the entire starting lineup will be
HrSt-year men.
Frank Baumholtz, forward for
the visitors, appears to be the out
standing offensive threat of the
team. as shown by the fact that he
scored 10 points in 25 minutes in
the opener against Marietta. Box
scores Of the other games played
by Ohio U. are not available. but
by virtue of the high scores, young
MI Baumholtz probably has con-
tinued his sharpShooting.
Ohio U. had a fine team last
year and defeated two of the
teams that handed setbackS to
G. w. These included Washing
ton and jefferson. which trounced
the Colonials in the seasons fare
well. and toppled Toledo U. by
stopping the sensational Chuck
ChuckoWitz. who averaged "a
points a game.
G. w. AT FULL STRENGTH
Ohio tied with Marshall College
for the Buckeye Conference title
with nine victories and one defeat
each. The lone losses in loop COM
petition were to each other.
For the first time this season
George Washington will place its
full strength on the floor tomor-
row night against the Buckeye
State invaders. This means that
Jack Butterworth. regular center
of the team for the last two years,
will make his debut. He has been
ailing with lung trouble, but this
has cleared up and has been work
ing with the team all week.
1t is said that the absence of
Butterworth from the lineup in
the opening game Of the season
against Ohio State at Columbus
was a prime factor in the Colo
mails defeat.
In the preliminary game tOmor-
row night the Dapper Dan Club
quintet will lock up with the Army
Medical Center, starting at 7
o'clock.

on the highways of the state unless registered. Registration certificates for 1887 expire at midnight Feb ruary 28. Persons who fail to renew their certificates for 1888 are obliged under the law to return these plates to the office of the department of motor vehicles at Hartford or to the other nine branch offices in the state. The plates are the property of the state of Connecticut and therefore must be returned.
 The department expects that en- forcement agencies in the state will see to it that motorists comply with the statutes in this respect. A plea of ignorance on the part of motor ists can hardly be entertained as the practice and method of regis tration is the same this year as it has been for so many years in the past.
 should like to point out further that number plates in themselves are for purposes of Identification and do not necessarily mean that a person has registered his car. The authority to operate on the high way is the certificate of registra- tion which, in all instances, should be carefully examined and checked. In the event that inserts are lost or stolen new ones will be furnished to motorists on filing with this de- partment a sworn affidavit on a form provided by the department of motor vehicles. In due time a check on persons who fail to re- new and fail to return plates to the department will be made. From our records it is comparatively a simple process to determine who these delinquents are and list of them will eventually be sent to the enforcement agencies in their res pective communities.
 I am including here with for your convenience the statutes which re- late to this situation:
 Chapter 1865, sectiond (d) reads as follows: All number plates shall be the property of the state and no title therein shall pass to any per- son registering motor vehicle un- der the provisions of this chapter. (e) Any person who shall violate any provision of subsection (a), Co, or (d) of this section shall be fined not more than fifty dollars"
 Section 1858 reads as follows: Any person who shall operate or allow to be operated any motor ve- hicle on any public highway before the same shall have been registered, or who shall register any motor ve- hicle of which he is not the owner, shall be fined not more than fifty dollars"
 All motor vehicle registrations as provided for in this chapter except temporary registrations, shall ex- pire at midnight on the last day of February of each year."
 Section 1923 reads as follows: (a) 'No person shall counterfeit any number plate or marker, or make any substitute or temporary mark CT, except as provided in section 1865. Any person who shall violate any provision of this subsection shall be fined not more than one hundred dollars"
 Section 1863 reads as follows: (a) Upon the transfer of ownership of any motor vehicle its registration shall expire, and the person in whose name such vehicle is registered shall, within twenty-four hours, re- turn the certificate of registration and the number plates to the com missioner"

 Commissioner of Motor Vehicles

mounted roStrum and waved to the people. Then he was permitted to drive on.
 Members of the government fatherland front themselves took the lead in demonstrations, marching through streets all over the city in small and big groups, cheering for Schuschnigg as the preserver of the country'S independence.
 Small groups of Nazis started minor demonstrations at several points.But they got small attention.
 It was typical of Vienna that there was an informal cabinet meeting after Schuschnigg's speech-at the internationally famous Sacher res taurant. Freed from the crowd. Schuschnigg drove there and met his ministers, who had gone there singly to avoid crowds. There Schuschnigg was congratulated as the ministers drank the traditional black coffee, schale mokka, and ate dinner as other patrons, including many Americans, cheered them. 
 In the provinces, as here, father land front men led in demonstra- tions. At Innsbruck they assembled before restaurants known to be ire quented by Nazi sympathizers and demanded that the Austrian flag be flown. Police tried vainly to calm them, pointing out that there was no obligation on individuals to fly the flag. Nazis had been ordered tc remain at home to avoid provoca- tion.
 At Graz, Nazis won a victory when Dr. Alfonso Gorbasch resigned as leader of the provincial fatherland front of strongly Nazi styria, al Nazis' demands. Nazis and father land front men alike demonstrated at Graz, but good naturedly. Nazis sang German songs and shouted lone folk, one nation" while the pro- government men cheered Schusch- nigg and sang the Austrian anthem
