THE GRIDIRoN
CONTESTS ON
 MANY FIELDS
Rough House Work Down ii Bridgeport Franklin. Were Easy-Crosby Boy. Leave
 the Field.

The All Waterburys and the Acorns met in Bridgeport on Satur- day for the second time this season and after a hard fought contest in i which Waterbury had the better of the struggle, the game ended in tie, %. The second half of the contest was marred as is usually the case with games in Bridgeport, when the crowd rushed on the field and a free for-all fight ensued. Fists flew in all directions and many faces were the recipients of jabs sent out straight from the shoulder. The row started when Lou Cronan and Kecko got into mixup. It was not really a fight, but looked as such, and Jack Hannah ran to pull the players apart. As Hannah grabbed Kecko, the crowd. which had no love for the Waterbury. guard, rushed on the field and the swatfest was the result. The policemen present were power less to prevent the slugging bee. In fact a Waterbury player had to grab hold of a policeman's club and beat the crowd back. The field was at length cleared and the game pro- ceeded. Last season when Waterbury played in Bridgeport the crowd swarmed on the field when Water bury made a touchdown and prevent ed goal from being kicked, making the score 5-5.
 The All Waterbury eleven gained many yards more than their oppon- ents during the game on Saturday, time and again carrying the ball to within striking distance of the Acorns' goal. only to lose when score seemed probable. The Acorns after the first half were unable to do anything with the visitors and re- storted to bunting game. The two games already played show that All Waterbury is some better than the Acorns and on Thanksgiving day, the Bridgeport team should be defeated when 1t comes to this city. The line- up:

PROMISE

means in general declaration made by one person to another, which binds the person who makes 1t to do a specified act. For instance, when politics and politicians are red not just before election time, you'll near about this candidate or that candi- date promising to do so and so, pro viding MT So and So and his gang will do so and so for him. Well, tne above is what we'd consider fair and square deal providing 1t would be lived up to. Of course it's ridlcu- lous to report politicians as living up to their promises, because Tn such cases they make promises simply to break them at their own sweet Wlil' and the reason for 1t all is, thelr brains are muddled, and it's on ac- count of the internal stuff they drink. Say, when you meet a candidate rom now until election day he'll reach out and shake your hand and then us Come in and have something,
 and you can bet your life 1t won't pc tea. coffee, cocoa or buttermilk that will be staring you when you go Ill. No sir-ee, there will be "sometnlns
 there that will eff you get drinking it), put stare on your face that VIII never come off. Therefore be very careful what you drink. Now we know what we're talking about when we say the only good beverage for the human race is nice tasting new season tea, fresh roasted coffee, or newly churned buttermilk, and II you doubt us, try the quality we sell Tor just one month. then judge for your self.
