The Denbury vin. c. a basketball
team defeated the Company F players
at the Norwalk Armory. yesterday af-

ternoon, by escorsof if to 0. Alergs

number of spectators witnessed the
game. There was a collision getween
lloupp and Ranch, in which the Dan.
buriss's nose was broken, but he

piuckily played the game through.

The visitors played a snappy game
They were superior to the military
boys in weight. interference and team
work, having had the advantage of
~ontinued practice. while the local
team has just gotten in shape after re-
turning from active service in the late
war. The F team is rapidly getting in
good form. however, and a few more
games will undoubtedly place the
members where they should be.

The game was a class one through-
out. There wae no “slugging" and no
urguments between the players to mar
the sport. The oillciels were very fair
in their decisions. and withal the game
was one of the best ever witnessed in
Norwalk. if not so exciting as some
of the others.

The game was called at 3:80 o'clock.
twenty minute halves to be played.
Norwsik won the toes and took the
south goal.

The bell was quickly in play and it
soon became evident that the tactics of
the visitors was to play a quick aggres-
sive game. placing the home team upon
the defensive as much as possible. The
bell was continually in F's territory.
and it was only a question of a few
moments before the visitors scored.
Early in the half Godfrey fouled and
Watson tried to throw a goal from the
foul line. but missed. Then Gordon
fouled and Ghiotto failed to throw in
the basket. Roupp secured the bell in
a clear field a moment later and scored
(or Denbury. The leather was again
in play, when Watson. the tall center
of the Denbury team. got in a scrim-
mage and blood flowed from his nose.
Time was called. but a few moments
later he was again in the midst of an-
otbcr mix up. Pike held the bell and
a foul was called. Ghiotto threw the
goal, making the first score for the
home team. Roupp gore the F boys
the chance to tie the score by another
foul. This was accomplished .by
Ghiotto. Gilmore then scored, but a
foul by Godfrey gave Watson a chance
to gain another point. the advantage
being quickly followed up by Gordon.
who tossed the ball into the basket
from the center of a bunch by a clay.
or pass. The leather was again in
play when Ranch and Roupp collided
itauch's head proved the harder. and
Houpp’s nose was broken, the bone
penetrating the side, while the‘wound
bled freely. Time was taken out, and
after a short recess Roupp again so.
peered and piuckily re-entered the
game. Watson fouled sud Ghlotto
threw the goal. tying the score at 5.6.
Pike then made an exceedingly bril-
‘isnt play, begging the sell from mid-
field. Fouls were called on Gilmore
1nd Payne. but'Wstson missed both
goals. Godfrey gave him another
chance. but he could not find the bes-
ket. Roupp and Gordon both fouled.
but Noryalk did no better. Hosp ae-
"nred (nether goal just as the end of
the half was reached. making the
score: Denbury. 0; Norwalk. 5.:

in the second half Andrews took
Watson's place as center. Ghiotto
missed a chance at goal on a foul by
Andrews. Gordon scored. but another
foul by Andrews gave Gilmore a chance
to score another point. Gilmore foul-
ed. but Gordon missed the basket.

Roupp found the basket in a play
from the side. Houpp made a l'OIIl by
pushing. but Gilmore failed to score.
Gordon secured another basket. And-
rews and Gilmore got tied up for a
double foul, but both Gilmore and Gor-
don missed. Roupp bagged another
basket, and the game was over: Score:

”[8!le WEI Bill.

Ire. lei asshlie Left it in Charge of a
Friend and has set Brier-rd

The selectmcn are of the opinion that
Mrs. Mary McLaughlin. widow of
Francis McLoughlin,
street. Norwalk. is trying to desert the
five children left by her late husband
Her own eighteen-months-old babe is
now in charge of the selectmcn. and
it is alleged that the mother shipped

three others on an east-bound train
from the East Norwaik station, Wed.
nesday evening. They-have not yet
been heard from.

The story of the desertlon of the be-
by is to the effect that Mrs. Mclough-
lin entered the little fruit store kept
by Rosie Sansonl. at 15% Wall street
Norwaik about 4 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon. and asked her to take care
of the baby over night, as she had to
go to Westport. She promised to call
for the little one early yesterday mor-
ning and pay for its keeping. Mrs.
Seusoni had known Mrs. McLaughlin
for some little time. and agreed to
keep the child for her, though she had
five of her own.

The baby was not called for yester-
day and to make matters worse Mrs
Sausoni found that it was sick. She
became alarmed. and feared that it
might die and cause her trouble. She
went across the street to Grocer Thom-
ss Burns for advice. and he called Cili-
cer Thomas Host. No trace of Mrs
McLoughlin could be found except that
she had shipped three children away
by train at East Norwsik.

The selectmen were notified and
authorised the removal of the baby to
the Town Children's Home. where it
is ni the care of Matron Lewis.

Selectman Lynes informed a repre-
sentative of The Sentinel this morn-
ing that he should ask Mrs. McLough-
iin to explain if she could be found.
