Purple Knights To Oppose Danbury

With the high school basketball team inactive the only local hoop action will take place Friday at the "Y" surface where the Purple Knights oppose the high riding Dan- bury Gales.
 Danbury handed the Purplemen a 30 point setback a month ago and rules a heavy favorite to sweep the series tomorrow. Ace Vince, dead- eyed shooting star who scored no less than 31 points against the Knights in the first meeting will head the Danhury array that also will include Morgan, Feeley, Gil- lioti, and the Baron brothers.
 The Knights hampered by tn- juries, working hours, and army drafts all season long will be seek ing to regain some lost prestige at the expense of the Danbury invad- CTS. The purplemen lineup for to- morrow has not been announced for Coach John Balinsky has had some difficulty in finding a suitable start ing array in recent starts. However, with such star performers as Czaplicki, Sterniak, the Lomans, the Warjacks, Gair, Ruccio and Farrar on hand local followers can be assured of a hard fought battle.
 Action will start at 7:30 o'clock when an attractive preliminary will be played and dancing will round out full evening of enjoyment.

American League Has
 Own Umpire School

ing is a highly specialized, proteS- sion. You can't select your umpires on the basis of sentiment. They've got to know what it's all about. Be- cause the veterans were Squawking that we never gave them consider ation we decided on an experiment several years ago. It was an ex- pertinent we had no faith in, but we wanted to show the veterans their criticism was unjustified."
 MT. Harridge was talking about the time the American League took Fred Marberry at the end of his pitching days and sent him in cold as a big league umpire. Typical of most veterans, Marberry didn't have the slightest conception of the job. He was passably competent in mak- ing routine decisions, but he could never get over the fact he was a ballplayer. Before the game he would go into the dressing room and play cards with the home players. On trips he would ride with the teams. He never developed the in- dependent, isolated attitude of an umpire and as consequence he was a complete failure.
 'This turned out to be good thing both for the league and the veterans" said MT. Harridge. Tt proved we were willing to give them a chance, and, what was just as in1- portant it proved to them umpiring was profession that demanded hard work, application and an en- tirely different attitude. So now when a vetrean comes to us and says he wants to be an umpire he is not in ignorance of what he faces. : Not So Easy
 Rommel and Pipgas made appll- cations the same year. MT. Harrloge told them they would have to labor three years in the bushes and even then he could not guarantee they would be acceptable as big league umpires; that would depend on how far they had advanced. They couldn't expect to make any money in the bushes, either. The pay would be $125 a month and out ot that they would have to pay their own expenses. Both Rommel and Pipgras, accustomed to heavy sugar as star pitchers, gulped noisily but agreed to the harsh conditions.
 "Of course, we saw to it that they got more than $125 a month" said MT. Harridge, though not great deal more. The first thing we want to know is if veteran is interested enough in umpiring to make sacri- fices. Once convinced he is, we are willing to go along with him. This gives us confidence he's going to give the job everything he has. In the end we figure to have a good umpire, and by the same token the veteran has made a new career for himself"
 It is MT. Harridge's hope that in due time he will have a complete staff of American League veterans. This doesn't mean the league will pass up outsiders with ability. On the contrary, the league is con- stantly securing smaller leagues for meaterial. A couple of new ones are coming up this year.

IRISH EDDIE S-5 CHOICE OVER
 CANADIAN BOY
WeIterweights Top Buck ingharn Hall Boxing
 Bill; Suggs vs DOty

The prospect of seeing Irish Ed- die Dolan and lightweight cham pion Lew Jenkins in the same ring, would, ordinarily hardly ever seem possible, but both are scheduled to be on hand tonight at Buckingham Hall when Dolan tkaes on the chum of Jenkins, one Eddie Carroll, Ca- nadian 1rishman who, reputedly was the boy who taught Jenkins little, about the boxing business, and especially power punching with his right hand. N
 Whether or not Carroll is as good in ring practice as he is in theory, or if he can practice what he breaches. will be determined in no small measure, but sharp, well- conditioned Dolan who is about as easy to defeat in a ring as the in- come tax law. Jenkins promised faithfully that he would come to Waterbury with his friend Carroll and second him against Dolan, a slashing southpaw puncher who rules about an to 5 choice to out point his Canadian namesake. The Waterbury boy would much rather take his chances with Jenkins in New Yorw or elsewhere, but that is highly improbable at this time. In the meantime, he will do his best to make short work of the boy trained by the champ for the past ten days. They will go eight rounds or less, and if Carroll is the heavy hitter he is reputed to be, it should be quite scrap while it lasts.
 Full Speed Ahead
 Hartford's Red Doty and New Bedford Eddie Suggs, son of the old timer, Chick Suggs, are down for six round Semi-final spot that promises to be packed with action all the way, as both boys are speedy and can punch till the COWS come home. Suggs is rated fine boxer and will have to be to keep track of the shifty two-hand hitter from the Insurance City who made good showing on the last Waterbury A. c. card though losing the decision to Jimmy Bell.
 Billy Brown Biacchi of this city and Joe Firpo of Meriden will open the show in four round swing ses- sion that ought to be interesting. Brown has won his last two touts in New Haven and Bridgeport, last Thursday and Monday and figures to make ti three straight within two weeks. over the tough Swinger from the Silver City.
 SIambangO
 Dula Kovach of Naugatuck and tough Tony Gillo of New Haven will have it out in another six rounder that may produce some of the best fighting of the entire card, with Kovach figured to be returned the winner. Maxie Katz of this city and Ralph Torrens of New York com- plete the show in six rounder.
 First bout at 8:30 o'clock. Some good seats still available at Mulli- gan's 3-9450.
