INDEPENDENTS 5,
HEAVYWEIGHTS O.
Two Teams Closely Matched in First
Game of the Season.

On the Cranberry Sunday afternoon
the Independents defeated the Heavy
weights, 5 to 0, when Captain Fielding
fell on the ball back of the goal line
after it had been kicked and bounded
out of the arms of one Of the> Heavy
weights who tried to make the catch.
The only score was made in the first
half of the game.
Interference by the crowd prevented
ing of their strength, and when the
Independents play again Captain Field
ing intends to have the gridiron roped
off as his team complained they could
have run UP more of a, score if they
had had a free field. Features of the
game were the playing of Captain
Fielding, Rowe and LEeureux of the
Independents, and of Captain Cum
nlings and Fullback Rydholm of the
Eeavy7weigfts.
The Heavyweights saeet the Acade-
them good rub, while the Indepen-
dents play the New London Indepen-
dents. For this game Manager Ben
dett has signed a. new tackle in Bill
Skeily, brother of the recent captain,
and Sam Bastian, an Indian from
Westerly. He expects that there'll be
something doing when the two redmen

Showing superiority both in theory
and practice of the game the Norwich
Free Academy eleven opened it's foot
ball season SATURDAY. on the gridiron
on the State Hospital grounds by de-
feating the Windham High school
team, IS to 0. Windham was never
even dangerous in the four periods of
10, ., 10 and ) minutes, but was prob
ably robbed of much of it's effective
ness by the loss of its captain, Left
Halfback Harrington. who lost a tooth
ard was considerably Jared up in
tackling Coughlin in the first period,
so that he dropped out of the game,
Manley going from center to take Har-
rington,s place behind the line and
Gates coming in to play center.
The Academy scored the first time
after Ia minutes of play in the first
half on a goal from the field, accurate
~ shot from the 10 yard line by Nc

touchdown and Mccormick accurately
put the ball over the bar from a diff
cult side angle. The last score came
with only half a minute of the game
left to play.
Forward Pass Fooled Windham.
Spectacular plays or long runs were
absent from the game, but McCor-
n7ick's facility With the forward pass
and his accurate kicking for goals,
Captain Gebrath's clever tackling, and
catches of the forward pass by Cough

for the Academy, while for Wfndham
High Staebner at left tackle showed
his ability in getting through and

tack Oldenburs was a good man at
picking openings in the line for short
gains, and Right FIalfpack Jack
Kearns made some clever runs with the
ball.
Harrington Won the Toss.
There was fair sized crowd on
hand along the side lines who~ the
game opened. Captain Harrinst ton win
ming the toss and electing to defend
the south goal, thereby giving the
Academy the advantage of the brisk
wind that blew down the field This
was shown at once when Mccormick
kicked off, the ball sailing to within
five yards of the Windham goal line,
where Jack Kearns caught it and
brought it back Is yards before he was
downed by Hertz. The ball changed
hands several times with neither side
making much Roadway against the
other until Mccormick shot off his
first forward pass, Coughlin receiving

Dayville. Sept 30-"Pete'' Wilson, a
finger who worked for a team over in
the little town of Hartford this sum-
nler. moved swath about the full
width of the game at Dayville Satur-
day afternoon when he toed the rub
Der for Wauregan against Tr1-Sulage
in the decisive game of a post season
series of three. This barn storming
visit of Pete's was one glittering,
glamorous, not to say Goliath, of a
success, and when he had finished
gyrating them over at the end of the
eighth inning % Tri-Villagers had been
sent back to the bench by the strike
out 1oute. He might have struck out
the other two men, neither one OF
whom got a safe crack at the ball,
but what was the use? He had hung
record of a no-hit, no-run game
against the champions of the Eastern
Connecticut league, and let it go at
that. Pete is no hawg! No not even
late in the fall
What he showed the chilled fans
If the eight innings that he stuck to
the slab was all class, better than
what he was usually able to do on the
State league circuit Of course, there
were no Ty Cobbs or such fancy hit
ting gentlemen taking shots at his
curves, but he had everything that
was necessary for the occasion.
There isn't anything to be said about
anything or anybody connected with
the game excepting Pete. He was the
whole show-score, Pete (Wauregan)
S. Tri- Village 0. The game was called
at the end of the eighth inning.

having been left at the house at the
time, l resolved to try it, and as it
agreed with her stomach / continued
using it with grateful results. The in
had taken the first fifty-cent bottle,
and after she took two large bottles
she was pronounced cured by the doc
tor and has been in FOOD health ever
every day and examined her every Sec
ond day until he pronounced her kid

Now then the doctor was under the
impression that L was giving my girl
his medicine. but as his medicine had
failed to do a bit of good, and desiring
not to offend him, I did not tell him 7

not know the difference. I did not use
one drop of his medicine after I start

am grateful

period was called with the ball in the
Academy's hands at the center of the

Winning hopes were shattered by New

game was a pitchers battle between
Marquard, who was easy for Chicago

But today Marquard showed his old

allowed but six scattered hits, whereas

was hit hard.
Chicago got a man as far as third

and the visitors made no attempt to
