WOmen's Board Reports
Expenditure Of $9,146
For Hospital Last Year

At the meeting of the executive
committee of the Women's Board
of the Montgomery County Gen
eral Hospital on Monday reports
for the past year were given. Mrs.
William John Thomas, treasurer,
announced the expenditure of
9,146.34, the largest budget ever
financed by this group. Of this
amount, $1,000 was given toward
installing new heating plant in
the hospital. Since the opening of
the hospital in 1920 this board has
furnished all linen used by the in
stitution and last year spent ST.
246.22 for linen supplies. The ex-
pense Of blacking-out the hospital
has also been paid by the board.
This work is carried on with the
support of many friends and or
CARNATIONS who have cooperated
during the past year. In spite of
the gas and tire rationing, the
hospital supper was huge success
with 1928 suppers being served and
clearing $3,773.99, or $7OO more
than last year. Of this amount ST.
225 was turned in by the pamphlet
committee. Donation Day last year
was also a banner event for, be-
sides the thousands of quarts of
canned goods received, cash dona-
tions amounted to $887.77. During
the year $318.75 in money dona-
tions has also been received.
Because of the huge increase in
population and since many doctors
are being called into the armed
service demands on the hospital
are expected to be greater than
ever. During the past year, 1920
patients were admitted, an increase
of "a over the previous year.
Mrs. Eugene Scott, chairman,
announced the meeting of the gen
eral board for November 9, at
which time plans for the coming
year will be discussed and the cleo
ton of officers held.

LOCAL H. 5. HOOP
 SQUADS BUSY
Crosby Has Most Impress sive Group; Wilby, Tech
 Teams Uncertain

As near as can be judged at this writing Crosby will come up with the strongest basketball squad among the local high schools, as the team coached by Bill Schofield which went to the state tournament finals last year with Naugatuck, has lost several players including the tall and heavy Ken Betts to the U. s. Navy but there is FaSaneln, D'Agostino, Bob Reynolds, Smith and Jocko Conlon which is pretty fair team in that order as Rey- holds, D'Agostino and Conlon saw quite a little action in the state tournament at New Haven last March.
 Wilby has squad of about 30 hopefuls and that's all, with Johnny Necunas, baseball pitcher as captain, and Coach Jim Lee unable at this time to indicate semblance of a first" team. At Leavenworth, Coach Bill Tracy has Wally Va lunas of last years squad ard a football injury this past season 10 use as nucleus of reduced squad of about Is varsity players.
 Crosby opens December 9 against Meriden in the Wilby gym: wilby meets its Almni rivals on Decem- Der 18th and Leavenworth meets Wilby January ?, but may play one game before that time if it can be arranged.

 Next OnGarden'S Boxing Menu

New York, Dec. 1 = Determined 10 re-establish himself as a strong force in the heavyweight division. Lou Nova returns to Madison Square Garden On Friday night 10 oppose the formidable Tami Mauriello in a contest scheduled for ten rounds.
 Nova has been battling in hard luck and he thinks it is about time for his luck to change. After fight ing his way into heavyweight title shot he fell victim to perhaps the hardest punch Joe Louis has ever thrown. Then, in a start against Lee Savold at Washington last May, he suffered an eye cut that so serious ly handicapped him that the re- fierce was forced to halt the con- test.
 Now divorced from the strange (to boxing training methods ex- pounded by believers in Yogi phil- osophy. and avoiding all reference to the "cosmic punch" and dynamic stance" Nova has resumed the or- thodox system of conditioning him. self. a system that once lifted him to the forefront of contenders and may do so again.
 Arriving in New York from Cali tornia ten days ago. Nova left in- meoiately for Greenwood Lake, x. J., where he has displayed the same form that saw him twice knock out Max Baer and knock out or outpoint other leading heavyweights.
 Lost To Biyins
 MaurIello, winner in his last start over Lee Savold at the Gar den. is working out at Stillman,s gymnasium. The Bronxite has lost only one out of more than a dozen bouts against heavyweight opposi- ton. The one loss came at the hands Of Jimmy Bivins in Cleveland and if Tami can dispose Of Nova he VII get an opportunity of balanc- ing his score against Bivins.

MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL REAL WARTIME PUZZLE
Smaller Territory May Be Solution; Evans, Hart-
 nett Get Jobs
BY TOMMY DEVINE United Press Stan Correspond nt)

'NHbeu EEeOS StaH NOrFcspOuu Htb
 Chicago, Dec. 4.-(UP)- dation of territories was advocated today as . step which may save minor league baseball during the wartime emergency.
 W. c. Bramham. president of the National Association of Professional baseball leagues and Czar of the minors, regarded the proposal fa- vorably although no definite plan fer it's accomplishment was pro- posed at the leagues annual con- vention.
 'T'he coalition of the stronger clubs from two or more circuits to form one financially sound circuit with adequate player material may be necessary to keep the minors going in 1922" Braham said. There arc many cases where clubs in two leagues are splitting a territory and conditions do not warrant both of them operating. II the leagues are willing 10 grant permission We may take the members of one circuit in- to the other for the duration. The franchise Of the clubs forced to drop out under such circumstances would be frozen and could be re- claimed after the war ends"
 This plan has tcen suggested for the Southern Association and the southeastern league.
 Hope to Hold On"
 While the minor league picture isn't bright. operators indicated at their annual presidents dinner" last night they would not fold their leagues until it became certain that conditions would prohibit success ful operation. All % minor league units which finished the l942 sea- son we:c represented.
 At today's session the minors will consider amendments dealing with their legislative action.
 Two important minor league events featured yesterdays session. Billy Evans, former major league umpire and scout. was named pres ident of the Southern Association. and the "Gabby" Hartnett signed a two year contract as player -man- ager of the Jersey City club of the International League.
 Evans succeeds Map. Trammell Scott, president of the league since i93S. Evans last baseball connec- ton was as chief scout of the Bos- ton Red Sox. After leaving the Red Sox he served in 1914 as general manager Of the Cleveland Rams of the National Football League.
 Hartnett was pilot Of Indianapolis of the American Association last season. but was dismissed when Donie Bush, part owner Of the club, decided to take over the field duties. In signing with Jersey City Hart nett re-enters the New York Giants system. He served as a coach for the Giants two seasons ago
