STRAPS REDUCE
 FOOTBALL HURTS

Boston, Jan. 24.-(UP)-Prevent- ing strappings have reduced dras- tically the number of recurring ankle and knee injuries among Har- yard football players, according to Dr. Augustus Thorndike, team phys ician.
 Dr. Thorndike told a symposium of the American Academy of Ortho- pjdic Surgeons yesterday that from 1882 to 1885, 26 per cent of all re- current knee strains suffered by Harvard players involved internal knee injuries while only IS per cent of such trains had an internal effect last year.
 He emphasized the technique was not 8 treatment but rather a means of preventing recurring injuries to previously strained joints. The strappings consist of criss-cross tapings to support and steady the joint.

 Winners of seven straight games, including three in the Naugatuck Valley Basketball League and that trio including Crosby and Nauga- tuck, the Wilby High School Wild cats are pretty much "sitting on top of the world" as Torrington comes to town tonight for a hoop test at the Wilby gym.
 Injuries and illness have hampered the New City Club, which started the season in fine form, but any Tor rington team can always be counted upon for real game against Wilby in any sport. The Wildcats have a football licking to square off and to- nights the night = hep, hep. The reserve teams of the two schools are to meet at 7:3O D. m.
 Crosby Loses
 For the second time this season, Ansonia High defeated Crosby, 38 to 32, to gain third place in the valley loop.

Kotek and Lashnitz scored g points for the win ners, Art Fisher, 13 for Crosby.

3RD VALLEY HOOP MEET AT BOYS CLUB

The third annual Naugatuck Val ley basketball championship tourna- ment will be held at the Boys club during the week of February 26 as announced by William Johnson, club director this morning. The To- cal club has had great success with this highly anticipated tourney and this year the pre-tourney demand has been heavier than ever before which is indicative of an even great CT event.
 The first winner of the valley event was the St. Joe Holy Name quintet but try as they would they could not repeat last year when an- other church team captured the title. The Holy Manners were hard to beat that year and really dominated play throughout the tourney but last year a dark horse in the persons of the St. Thomas church team topped all corners by the necessary margin, and not much more, and went through to victory over the two score teams represented.
 Tournament information and blanks will be out very soon and teams desiring representation should watch this paper for further nfor- nation regarding the event.
 The annual tournament for inc termediate teams will be conducted through the week of March 18th. Last years winner was the strong West Side Juniors who defeated the Bristol Cross Bones in a very close contest for the crown, will again be named as pre-tourney favorites al- though they lost many of their stars from last years team.

EASY FOR NAUGY

Naugatuck, January 24. With Eddie O'Connor and Hank Swirski tossing them in from all angles, the Naugatuck high hoop team went to town last night at the expense of the Warren Harding high five, winning 47-29.
 Although the game was played at Bridgeport, the Garnet won more decisively than it had previously here. A feature was the fact that Coach Peter J. Foley for the first time this season did not use two-team sys- tenn. Only three substitutes partici- pated for Naugatuck.
 The Foleymen took an early lead and were never headed, leading 27-13 at half-time. O'Connor scored IA points and Swirski 10. Koritzky led Harding with seven points.

NOVA WANTS
TO MEET CALENT0
California Boxer Says He'll
Be Ready For Baer Or
That Worm Soon

LOS ANGELES, July 4LR-Tak-
ing a moment off to hand Tony
Galento another nickname. Cali
fornia Lou Nova said he wants a
chance to climb back into the front
ranks of the nations heavyweight
boxers.
The husky ex-collegian, out of
action a year due to a serious
stomach illness, asserted he would
be ready soon for a crack at Max
Baer, Tony Galento or anyone else
in a campaign to get at champion
Joe Louis.
Nova stopped Baer a year or
more ago but was eased out of
the contenders' picture by Galen-
to. When madcap Make battered
Galento into submission tn r e e
nights ago, Nova was asked where
that left him.
up in a lumber camp, train
ing, smiled Nova promptly.
when Make whipped Tony, that
proved I did something when l
licked him. And it proved that I
was in no condition to fight the
night I lost to Galento.
Incidentally" Lou added, 'that
Galento is a worm" Celebrating,
he said the New Jersey jellyroll
"goes beyond even bad ethics in
the ring.
He gi;es you this" said Lou,
wiping his thumbs across his
eyes. ''Baer may get rough, but
he doesn't deliberately try to MAIN
a guy. Same with Bob Pastor
and the other boys. They fight hard,
but none of us wants to go around
with the binding of an opponent
on our consciences.
IT don't mind saying that there
is one fighter I don't like. That's
Galento. He is" said Lou, repeat
ing himself, "a worm!"
Would he care to meet the ter
rible Tony AGAIN."
I'D welcome it. And I'd ruin
him."
Nova said he had been training
for some time. He doesn't know,
however, whether he'll get a Baer
or Galento match.
Nova predicted before the Max
Tony fight that Baer would stop
Tony within eight rounds.
"I saw Max doing roadwork last
winter; he was serious, for once,
about a fight. And when Max gets
serious, he's a dangerous guy,
even for Louis.
But I can whip him again, and
I don't mean to boast" concluded
Nova. 81 just hope I get him or
Galento." l

since the Havana conference is
