A one-point margin of victory over the Sacred Hearts last night kept the Gents of the Hill in the race for title to the first round of the Washington Park Community House league.
 Scoring almost at will ill the first quarter, the Gents were checked in the three subsequent cantos and barely eked out a 33-32 win. An- other thriller was provided by the Community club and Robins in their game which resulted in a 35- 31 win for the Cluobers, although the Robins finished the game with only four men.
 Many Misses
 Foul shots, if taken advantage of, could have provided enough points in the final quarter to the Hearts to turn defeat into victory. The Gents led 14-6 at the first quarter and 24-15 at intermission. By fast checking and snappy offensive work, the Hearts held the Gents to nine points during the entire second half, while they scored II for themselves.
 Nine men were on the Robins bench at the start of the game, and yet in the final quarter when Shim- kis was banned on four fouls, not a reserve could be found to take his place. All had considered the game over and retired to the showers.

 Rudy Dusek, squat, broad shoul- dered rought and tumble artist, is matched to grapple with Cliff Ol- son in the star bout of the evening. Olson has been going great guns of late and only last week slammed the Hollywood villain, George Koverly, to the mat and then won the bout when Koverly went berserk during the second frame. Dusek and Olson should put on a sizzler.

Memories of the days when Wa terbury Hebrews could put one of the best basketball teams available for any court will be recalled to- morrow night when the local Y. M. H. A. outfit will be seen at the Y. M. c. A. court against the New Ha- ven Community club, team of Jewish boys from the Elm City coached by Eddie Horwitz, former Yale captain and great player himself not too many years ago. Manager Morris Sirkin of the Wa terbury team has made arrange ments for a banner crowd, a pre- liminary game to start off the pro- gram at 7:30 and dancing to follow the main go, until midnight.
 Looks Good
 Waterbury's Hebrew array is look ing forward to revenge from the New Haveners as the local unit dropped close game in the Elm City few weeks ago that featured burning speed and sharpshooting of a top-line nature. With Len Block, Frank Danen, Nat Kabot, Howie Block, and Able Steinman as a starting lineup the Y. M. H. A. contingent should be well able to hold its own, and with a "break" or two in the game, can even up the home and home series with the strong New Haven outfit.
