TAFTVHLE
TaftvilIe Soccer Team in Line For The Bulletin cup-ImpeFtant Garne to he Played With PIainfisid Saturday. Revenue Stamp inspector Here Tues- day.

The TaftvilIe Soccer team will play a very important game this coming Saturday on the Providence Street grounds with Ffainfield in Q game that will probably settle the holder of the Bulletin cup for the first season. If the local team wins they take the cup but on the other hand, if they lose # will form a tie between Plainfeld and the local team. In case of a tie 1t Is quite probable that the deciding game will be played off on the Norwich Free Academy campus with the gate re- ceipts going to some charitable insfi- tuition and the Red Cross has been sug- gested. The home team are of the opinion that such game will not have to be played as they have the game already tucked away under their arms.
 P1ainfIeld will come here with the strongest lineup she has had this sea- son and knowing that they have just a fighting chance will put up a great game and are confident of springing a surprise on the local team.
 Secretary Pearson has not yet re- ceived any word from the Brussels management in regard to their failing to appear last Saturday at Thompson vile. The local club will file another complaint with the state secretary of the Soccer association making three altogether, two against Ansonia and this one against Brussels.
 The local fans are much bevildered over the situation ana are of the opinion that because Taftville is new in the ors anization they think that anything can be pulled over thei- eyes or on the other hand they might think that the local team is not fast enough to compete. This is the first season that the c ub has entered the State as sociatioa and the United States asso- ctation and from the general converse lion 1t will be the last Only bz threatening to appeal to the United States Football association did Sec retary Pearson get any recognition in former appeals to the state organiza- tion- The local team has gone to much expense In Joining these two associa- t1ons and much fruitless expenses has been made in preparing for games which were never played
 It has been suggested that anothel year the team pay more attention to the Eastern Connecticut Soccer league let the big timber drop and build up the new league on a firm basis. With good support a good game will un- doubtedly be furnished.
