 JOe's Given Prelim

The miracle team of the country, the Long Island Blackbirds, arrived in Waterbury Monday night with an unblemished record, but when the smoke of battle with the Brasscos had cleared, the miracle team was on the short end off a 51 to 46 score, after 40 minutes of combat.
 The Brasscos, living up to their advance billing, proved to be the giant killers" they claimed to be and will endeavor to add another victory Monday night. April 17th at the Armory Skating Rink, when they tackle the worlds champion pro basketball team, the original Rem aissance.
 Three weeks ago in Chicago, this famous aggregation of colored bas- keteers, ronped off with the Ma tional crown by soundly trouncing the Oskosh, Wisconsin All Stars 34 to 25 for their 10th victory in IF games. Since then they have added 21 more victories against an extra defeat. Sunday night in a Harlem classic in New York they defeated their city rivals, the Harlem Globe Trotters, A to 23.
 This smooth working Negro con- bination features six foot six "Satcher' Smith at center and Fat Jenkins at guard. They have not made Connecticut appearance fin five years, and their appearance here will positively be their last game this season and their only Connecticut appearance.
 The giant-killers, the Brasscos will present the same lineup that defeated the undefeated L. I. U team and will consists of Matty Sheehan, Joe Boley, Doc" Ferony Eddie Kobles, Ray Hoist Benny Zajac, Joe Swasey, Fred Ferrie anc Joe Joyce.

10 QO Wltnout perfect peace and quiet. Millions of dollars change hands in bets during the baseball season. The happiness of countless citizens depends on how the teams finish.
 So with full appreciation of my responsibility sought a spot where, shut off from the disturbances of the world, could think out, and put on paper, my opinion of the baseball season that will soon be here.
 Scuffletown was my final choice. Scuffletown, nestled close-all three buildings-to the bosom of the Blue Ridge mountains. ScuffletoWn- which even Thomas Gray would have found too quiet for the writing of his elegy. Scuffletown-31 miles from Charlottesville and still wait ing for news, from the loved ones at Appomattox. Scuffletown- where baseball still is known as rounders and am the only one in town. SOap-BOx Helps
 Today I am in Scuffletown, and scattered over a Soap-box which serves as my escritoire, is a mass of data concerning the 16 major league baseball clubs. I feel safe in saying that my information is the most complete of any reporter in America. I spared neither money nor pains in gathering it and my secretary, a-man-of-all-Work, a splendid chap named Henry Me- Lemore, has card-indexed it so beautifully that it is almost mu- scum piece. Let me give you a few of the card index hearings:
 A-Ankles, averages, alimony, and ailments.
 B-Bushers, big leaguers, bank accounts, and bubonic plague. C-Charlie horses, claims to flames, and Cheshire cheese( amount con- stunned along with beer by the play ers).
 D-Dirt daubers and their nest ing habits, Doubleday (Abner) double plays, diamond cutters who have made good in the big league, and dandruff. The cause and cure of.
 E-Errors, a recipe for egg plants and full and we'll written biography of Leon Errol.
 To run through the entire al- phabet would require too much space, so let me skip haphazardly through the list.
 T-Texas leaguers, Texas Rangers and taxes Gncome).
 Hit and runs (both play anc drivers, Happy Hooligan home runs, and an original James Hilton manuscript (either goodbye MT Chips" or "Lost Horizon").
 A Sure Way
 That will give you an idea of the vast amount of information that have at my disposal in making my baseball predictions. My dossiei on the Phillies alone covers 15 full pages, and it may be months before am able to assort it all out anc list my winners. AS matter o1 fact, I don't plan to release my predictions until late late Septem- Der, when a selector can be on 8 little more sure footing. Even if wanted to get the work finished earlier I couldn't do it here in Scuf- fletown. Because I have to helr with the cooking and planting irl the day time, and at night-well fellow has to find bright light or two, even if he has to drive miles to do it.
