Hartford, Nov 6.-The Hartford team in the Connecticut State Bowl ling league continues at the top, as the game last night did not make any change in the positions in the race. The Waterbury team made it's first appearance here and won the final game, losing the first two. New Britain went to New Haven and won one out of three games. Meriden was scheduled to play in Bridgeport, but owing to the excitement over the vote for mayor and for license it was decided to postpone the meeting until this evening. Hartford will play in New Haven next Tuesday night, Bridgeport goes to New Britain and Waterbury will play in Meriden.
 There was an immense crowd out at Kirsche's last night to see the state leaguers. Phil Conrad um- pired the games and George A. Par sons scored. The Hartfords rolled very evenly and won the first two games. The scores:

THE GRIDIRON THE DECISION
 IS RECEIVED Walter Camp Gives His Views, of That Play of Last Sunday
 Other News.

There has been so much comment about one of the plays in the All Waterbury-Second Ward game on Sunday that the Democrat has se- cured the opinion of Walter Camp on the point. It was in regard to the play after the kick off in the sec ond half. AS will be remembered, Noonan boosted the leather to All Waterbury. Hoffman tried for the ball, but it struck his hands and went on over the line. There he fell on it. Although Referee Waite said "Touchback," many thought it was a safety. Even some of the Water bury eleven were of the opinion that it was safety. Here is what MT Camp says about the play:
 "The point you raise depends en. tirely upon whether the player who fumbled the ball stopped the original impetus of it and then himself gave the ball the impetus which put it across the goal line. If he did this. it would be safety. If the ball mere ly struck his hands and then with this original impetus received from the kick shot on over the goal line, it would be touchback, under the conditions you name."
