The Compo Life Guard basketball
team outpointed the Norwalk Big
Five at the Armory last evening and
won the third game of the series by
the score of 30-11. In the preliminary
game the Battery C team defeated the
Sterling A C. of Bridgeport by the
Icere of 26-20. The largest crowd of
the season witnessed the games last
evening. There was about 1,000 fans
present.

The Norwalk team seemed to have
an off-night last evening. They only
tossed in two field goals all the even-
ing and both u~' these were n‘adc by
“"117an ri. The game was hard fought
all of the way and kept the largo
crowd in an up~roar. The score at the
end of the first half of the game was
14-5 iii favor of the “'cstport team.
The second half of the game was even
faster than the first. Several times
during this half of the game Referee
Mnhoney had to warn the players
about their rough tactics. The Life
Guards speody playing and teamwork
seemed to dazzle the Big Five and
they could make no headway at all.

CENTRAL BllREAU
FOR GOLF N EWS

NEW YORK. April 4.-—‘rhe U. 8.
Golfers Association has organized a.
bureau to give correct information to
golfers.

The plan was outlined at an infor-
mal luncheon given at the Links
Club by Frederick Byers President of
the national governing body in golf.
The fundamental worth of the plan to

under the direction of the U. S. G. A.
Thb information will naturally be
authoritative and a great deal of con-
fusion concerning U. 8. G. A. interpre-
tation of rules. plans and so on. will
be eliminated.

This central bureau will probably
function most effectively during the
ordinarily dull winter months when
golf news comes only from the south.
Under the plan formulated yesterday
the if. S. G. A. will use these winter
months for the spread of such impor-
tant information as economical up-

room crowded. Ropes had to be
stretched in front of the restaurant.
A crowd stood around the. table
where Babs was trying to put away
a meal and they draped the. sidewalls
and stood on chairs to see him do
tricks with the knives and forks.

"Hey. Uncle Bob. come on here
and one Babe Ruth eat soup." one
little. fellow whispered to his elder.

"lie uses a fork nice." a little girl
.commented in one of those confl-
ldenttal whispers that could be heard
all over the room. "I had an idea."
commented another. “that he was
much handsomcr than that though."

“Likes his chicken. don't he?" re-
marked another spectator.

Ruth protested to a waitress. "Ask

"Oh please. Mr. Ruth." she plead-
ed. "don't disappoint them. They've

should be benctical. There has been a
mass of such interesting comment
buried in the palliitating breast of the
U. S. G. A. officals. but the trouble
has been that the stuff has done a
King Tut in the way of staying buried.
The major league baseball clubs and1
the tennis associations have furnished
the public with interesting material for
years by sending such material thro-
