TAETVLLE LOSES IN
LAST FEW MINUTES.
New Britain Association Football
Team Won Semi Finals for State
Cup-Score to 0.

The Taftville association football
team lost its chance to compete in the
finals for the state cup when they went
down to defeat Sunday afternoon at
the hands of the strong New Britain
team by the score of to at Charter
Oak park, Hartford, before a record
breaking crowd. The Taftville men re-
tanned the lead of two goals to within
ten minutes of the end of the game
and through mixed play their oppo
nents tied the score and shot three
more goals before the referees whistle
blew.
Taftville won the toss and chose the
goal with the wind, which swept across
the field at a great rate during inter-
walls in the game, thus destroying ex-
cellent chances for brilliant play. At
ter five minutes of continuous attacks
on New Britain, VAIN scored, but the
referee disallowed the score, claiming
offSide, but this setback aroused the
Taftville men and they pressed their
opponents harder and on a penalty
kick Jim Greenhalgh scored
In ten minutes the plucky little fell
low speared the New Britain goal for
another. The rest of the half was de-
voted mostly to give and take play,
with Taftville showing much agrees
siveness. Score, Taftville 2, New
On resuming play in the second half,
the TaftviHe team played a one back
game which bothered their opponents
considerably. Whether they had never
seen this kind of play or not, they
made a vigorous kick against it, but it
was of no use. In this half H. Finlay-
SON displayed some brilliant work in
stopping goals and up to within ten
minutes of time the Taftviile players
held their own, but through a misun-
derstanding New Britain tied the
score. The two scores undermined
Taftville's nerve and broke up their
well working combination, and before
they realized it the game was won by
