 --As the baseball season is drawing to a close. the football enthusiasts are beginning to talk shop and plans are already being laid for the organ ization of teams in this section. AL though there has been talk of reor- ganizing the old Cadet team which made such a name for itself a few years ago, 1t is not at all probable that such an eleven will enter the field. From the outlook at present the Cadet Juniors, which has been the leading team in this section the past couple of years, will once more be seen on the gridiron and will un- doubtedly sustain its reputation of being about the best junior organi- zation in the state. Last year the Cadet Juniors cleaned up everything before them and easily defeated the Orients for the championship of the state. Almost all the players that were on the eleven last year will be seen in the lineup the coming sea- son, although the All-Waterburys may give Walter Leggett chance at quarterback. It Is understood that Managers Slavin and Cronin of the All-Waterbury team would like also to have "Minicouchee" try for their eleven as he weighs about 200 pounds and would make a valuable man. The other junior teams in Brooklyn are beginning to talk football and be- fore the end of next month several elevens will undoubtedly be looking for games.

They made a thorough canvass of the houses in Brooklyn and although many of them were at length accom- modated, several had 10 go up town and put up at hotels for the even- ing. It only goes to show how crowded Brooklyn is and the need of more buildings on this side. The Boston Bridge company is to erect a bridge at Washington avenue. one at Porter, another at Fifth and next week will start operations on one to be built across the Naugatuck river. near Bank street. With the tearing down of the present wooden struc- ture across the Naugatuck about the last one of its kind in this vicinity will cease to exist- The people of Brooklyn should appreciate the fact that the old wooden death-trap is about to be demolished. as scores of persons have been injured there As bad as it is during the day at night I 1t is a very dangerous spot and of | late very few persons nave journeyed through it.
