Billed as an exhibition basket

header show at Naval Armory

biggest offenders, according to the
officials. =
A total of 47sfouls, % on the
Rens and 10 on the Sphas, were
called by the hard-working George
Dufour and Frank Lafferty, and
since they didn't have fifth col

noon. with Chuck Chuckovits
collecting IS points.
Chuckovits starred again last
night. scoring four baskets and
making eight of nine free throws.
His tricky pivot style. which starts
at the edge of the foul zone and
includes a short dribbie and hoof,
shot. is hard to stop and resulted
in the nine fouls.
But Big Ed Sadowski, who got
seven baskets in scoring Is points
and Bob Calihan. who tailed five
goals and two fouls, were a little
too much for the Toledo team. Big
Ed, then Calihan alternated in the
pivot spot.

 Collection

"Comrades" of the Communist sarty who gathered to listen to the May Day speech of 1sadore Wofsky, New Haven leader, donated 6 total of s38.55 at the scene of action last night in Liberty hall.
 Yesterday was May Day, and 40 members of the local organization had "time," including bona fide rib snorting announcement of capi- talism by Comrade Wofsky, who said, among many other things, that "capitalists have no love for democ- racy, they hate labor, and thrive on war and imperialist expansion"
 His speech covered the situation completely, as every party oraticn should and does. Messrs, Roosevelt Knudsen and Hillman, to say noth- ing of the perennial favorite Henry Ford, shared honors last night in blasts from Comrade Wofsky.
 Der Fuehrer was described as a stooge of capitalists. Roosevelt is simply paving the way to set up a fascistic state of his own .. peace loving Soviet Russia, he said Is the only hope for the coming Of Utopia.
 then Wofsky, becoming bit more practical. asked his audience to give contribution of $l0 each toward the cause" namely that oi firthering the cause of their leader Earl BroWder. t..s
 A question period followed, but no one asked questions, so the local leader Michael Russo, adjourned the meeting and bade his comrades good night. And 50 ended another May Day.
