 Borough Sunday

New Milford, Dec. 27-Manager Jack Bray's New Milford Townies travel to Naugatuck Sunday to op- pose the Purple Knights at the I. M. c. 4. court there at 3 P. M. The Knights are an old foe of the TOwnies having opposed the locals in several home and home series in pre-war days and Mgr. Bray's charges are more than anxious to start the new series in winning form.
 Fred Collins, former Providence College sharp shooter who played some brilliant baseball for Newark, Kansas City and Beaumont of the Texas loop this past season, has been added to the Townies starting array that previously boasted of such stellar performers as Jim Hearn, present Canterbury School coach and one time Fordham net star. Carl Brutz, Washington Col- iege ace Bill Brlsor, Bates U. Speedster and a host of others.
 Coach Cliff Siwrski's Purple Knights will be seeking winning form again having dropped a high scoring contest to the Meriden Spurs last week. Chet, Frank and Charles Wojack, as well as Gene Czaplicki, Frank Fairs. Zig Koro- wotny, Henry Garlinski, Ray Lo- man and Hank SwirslDt will carry the hopes of the Knights in the Sabbath clash.

New York RUce Bets Off 27%, Cole Complains

New York, Dec, 9e-CUp)--DeSpite additional taxation and the threat States racing industry ended the year in a healthy condition, the Racing Commission said today in Its annual report to the Governor but expressed concern over the falling off of attendance and pari- mutuel betting,
 The report compiled by Chairman Ashley Trimble Cole, David DowS and William c, Langley, showed that 4,902,l27 persons bet S407,~ los, ,74S during l92 days of racing in New York this year, a decrease of IS percent in the average daily attendance and a % Ia percent drop ia the average daily pari- mutuel wagering from l9&5's l54 day season.
 rorseeing a further drop in ls47 if the IS percent total tax is not reduced the Commission recom- mended the prompt repeal of the enabling act which legalized five percent tax by municipalities and counties,
 
 The states revenue from thor oughbred racing was reduced also with only $27,l7s. .6oS.9% collected in l946 compared with $So, l2o,27S last year.
 "Tn fact" Cole said, the state of New York probably suffered a loss in revenue of $l0O0o. 900. The average daily revenue in loaS was Sis5 ,506.2o for i54 days of racing. We could reasonably have expected to continue that average into l946. If 1t had continued New York would have received for l92 days more than SS7,0o0,o0o Contrasting this possible revenue to the actual revenue of S27,00.Oo0 would indicate an actual loss to the state of ap- proximately $l0,000,000."
 The racing industry in New York is big business and has to be reason- ably handled, the Commission pointed out. The high quality and standards of racing must be main- tained for its successful conduct but if the public is let down by over-taxation the state and the racing association will suffer in diminishing revenue. Lowered rev. enue necessarily means curtailment of purses and operating expenses and a corresponding cheapening of races. leading to a further curtail- ment.

Dovis Cup Won EcsiIy ByYonks

Melbourne, Dec. 9e= (UpD ---Dls. playing some of the finest teAnlS and All~aroNnd RenerAlshlp seen in cup competition tn many years, Jack Kramer end Ted Schroeder cllnch~ cd the Davis Cup for America to- day with Q reso0nding straight~set, e-3, V~b, e-4 doubles victory over the Australian duo of Jack Bromwlch and Adrian oulst,
 Following on the heels of their twin triumphs in tho singles play on the opening day of the worldwide competition, Schroeder and Kramer won the cup for US. for the 10th time In the series that dates back to 1902,
 The work of clinching the victory in three straight matches went even beyond the prediction Of non~play~ ing Captain walter Pate, but it vindicated his choice, against some opposition, of selecting the unher- aided Schroeder to take the No. 3 singles spot,
 Kramer Insisted In Schroeder
 Schroeder took the trip to Aus tralia only upon the instStence of Kramer that he came along as a doubles partner. The Glendale, Cal, star then showed such fine form in practice games that Pate finally selected him over Frankie Parker, former national singles champion.
 The selection paid dividends, be- cause Schroeder is being hailed here as the worlds finest shot maker.
 Certainly he was that today as he "carrled2 the usually steady Kramer in the crucial doubles match against Quist and Bromwich.
 Schroeder Saved Match
 While Kramer was having an off day, it was the terrific play of Schroeder that saved the match, He rushed the net and sent sizzling drives gooming down the middle ot the court that left the Australians flat-footed.
 Brornwich and Quist, in their day, were rated the finest doubles conn bine in the world. But they couldn't do anything against the speed, co- ordination and finesse of the Amert- cans. The US. duo started out m the first set by willing the first four gan.es-and from there on in it was Q rout.
 Tn the second set Schroeder bore the brunt of the Amercian attack after the score had been deadlock ed at five-all. He broke through to spoil Quist's service, then won his own.
