The Bethany Boys team is now the only undefeated team in the second round of the Federated Church Basketball League. In a game last Tuesday evening at the Troup Junior High School gymnasium, the Bethany team defeated West Haven Lutheran by a score of 37 to 27. This was the first defeat for the West Haven Church team this season. Dick Johnson was high scorer with 14 points. Harold Simpson, Jr., scored 9 points, Giblin 8, and MacDonald 6 points for Bethany. The boys were cheered on by an enthusiastic crowd of high school friends.
The next game for the boys is scheduled to take place at the Y. M. C. A. on Saturday, February 24, against the Bethesda team.
Last Wednesday, in the fiercely-contested bowling league series, the Drillers defeated the Garage team in three games to take second place in the league. The Beckers, who hold first place, lost to the Church team. The Grange defeated Anderson's, three to nothing, and the Airport won from Willowcrest. The Landowners team was defeated by the Firemen. Harold Simpson had men's high score for the evening with 371. Jenny Kosnoff, who substituted for Alice Bunton, had high woman's score.
In the first round of intramural basketball games at the Community School, the Peewees, led by Captain John Lonergan, took first place. The Halfgallons and the Sharpshooters, led by Captains Jim Johnson and John Downs, respectively, are tied for second place.
In a game this past week, the Southbury girls' team defeated the Bethany girls' team by a score of 22 to 20. Katherine Doyle of Southbury made high score for the game. Mr. James Warburton, Miss Esther Burnham, and Mrs. Lena Fenwick drove the girls to Southbury. The visitors were entertained after the game and were served cake and hot chocolate.
