POCOMOKE VS. BERLIN (Girls)
On Friday, February 4th, another
in the series of championship basket
ball games was played on the POGO
moke floor between Berlin and the
home team. AS both teams had de-
feated Snow Hill they were anxiously
looking forward to this game.
Whether it was due to the new suits
or not, the home team seemed to b
'rarin' to go" by scoring two baskets
in the first two minutes of play.
From this time on, they continuously
scored and remained in the lead dur
ing the entire game. The guarding
and passing was much better than it
has been and everyone seemed to have
been interested in defeating the visi-
tors.
The final score was 1928 in POGO
moke's favor. The next county game
will be played Friday (tonight) with
Snow Hill on the home floor.
POCOMOKE VS. BERLIN (BOys)
The boys basketball squad won
their second victory in the county
schedule last Friday when they play

ior to the Berlin boys in their pass
ing and shooting of baskets. 1t was a
clean, fast game with the final score
being 44-12.
Robert Allen was high scorer OF
the game with Is points.

MIGHT HAVE BEEN
 ON POLICE FORCE

Worcester, Mass, Dec. 22-(UP)- Pursued by two policemen whom he had hoped to join soon as a brother-officer. a father of three children was killed instantly early today when his automobile struck pole and hurled his body through the roof agaisnt hosbital's brick wall. Alfred w. Anderson, 27, of Worcester already had passed a state civil service examination and was listed for appointment to the focal police force. Patrolman Lloyd Baxter and Philip Lonergan gave chase in a cruising car when An- derson, they said failed to halt on their demand as he sped along a highway.
 Anderson's machine, "doing 90 miles an hour" they said, swerved suddenly as it was passing Worces- ter State hospital It snapped pole. bringing down wires and cutting off electric and telephone service in the area for an hour. The Wreckage. the pursuing officers said, ke;st rolling for 25 feet until 1t piled with a sec ond crash against the hospital wall, almost atop Anderson's body.

vided, of course, that both bills pass within reasonable time after the opening of the General Assembly to allow for preparation for the ball loting. Should it be possible that Waterbury voters might vote on both the primary bill and charter change at the same time, considerable cost would be saved the city, it was esti- mated.
 Socialists Price"
 In the matter of choice of a pres ident pro tempore of the senate, it is learned that the Socialists have become insistent that one of the two Bridgeport senators-elect Audu- bon J. Secor, or James Tait, be chosen.
 This throws out of line the Repub- lican plan to name Cornelius J. Moy- Ian of Hartford, both the Republi- can and Socialist candidate elected from the Hartford district. The Republican organization had planned lining up the Socialist balance of power in the senate by naming Moy- Ian.
 Now it appears that the Republi- cans may have to name Senator elect Secor if they want complete cooperation from the Socialists. Secor served in the 1885 session and, thus, would have the necessary ex- perience. But Secor is not a lawyer, and this is considered one of the requisites for presidency of the sen- ate and the position provides mem- bership on the judiciary committee.

MADRID FACES
 3D AND SADDEST WARTIME YULE
BeIeaguered City, Cold and Hungry, Vows to
 Hold Out
BY EDMUND ALLEN
United Press Stan Correspondent,

United Press Staff Correspondent
 Madrid, Dec. 22--t tUP).-A million men, women and children, shivering with cold in devastated Madrid, without fires and light and almost foodless, under the cannon mounted in the Casa de Campo Park just across the river Manzanares. await their third and bitterest Christmas since the Spanish war began. But they are grirnly resolved that enemy troops shall not pass"
 The wind that blows down from the Guadarrama mountains, where Generalissimo Francisco Franco's army is entrenched amid the snow, according to an old Madrid saying is mot strong enough to snuff 8 candle, but deadly enough to kill a man." It cuts like a knife through the scanty clothing of the be- leaguered Madrilenos, as families huddle together over little fires made out of balls of newspapers.
 Few special Christmas treats are in store for the republican soldiers manning the trenches. A few hours with their relatives in Madrid, boxes of turron-the sticky nougat- like substance which is tradi- tional part of Christmas celebra- tions in Spain-are the most they can hope for as they gather around concealed wood fires, listening to the gypsy song of guitar of some Andalucian.
 Firing Is DesultOry
 An occasional burst of machine gun fire, to test if the enemy still is alert, provokes an answering burst accompanied by a shower of trench mortars. Across the river echoes the dull boom of a mine exploding as an attempt is made to advance the republican lines through the streets and closely packed houses in Carabanchel.
 The batteries of Franco on tree clad Mount Garabitas, jutting out like sugar loaf from the woody Casa De Campo, play a spasmodic tattoo as they pump shell after shell down the boulevards of Mad rid.
 Now the Gran Via, Madrid's Broadway is known as the Street of Death"
 Though the booming of the guns on Garabitas has filtered the Gran Via with dead and wounded at its most crowded hour, young couples still wander along its broad pave ments, looking into the sandbagged shopwindows, or pointing out a shell hole that was not there the day. before.
 Only persons with special passes are allowed on the streets, and they must grope their way through the pitchblack boulevard, falling into shell holes, colliding with lamp posts and stumbling over tree stumps, ready at any moment to present their credentials to the first patrol or guard that challenges them and also give the correst password.
 Every night from the cellars be- heath the former ministry of fi- nance, is issued a new password. But now, as distinct from the early days, the patrol has to say the first half and the person challenged the reply.
