Season Right, Beating Naugatuck.

Captain Connolly and his sturdy
eleven of the New Britain High school
opened up the season in an auspicioua
manner Saturday afternoon at ST.
Mary's Fairgrounds, when the Nauga~
tuck High school team was forced to
succumb to a 10 to defeat The
locals depended entirely on old style
football for their scores, the open
game being held in reserve for future
use. The forward pass was tried out
a few times and was worked very
successfully. There was a good sized
crowd on hand to witness the game.
but many who had intended watching
the opener were deprived of the
right owing to the tieup on the troll
ley lines caused by the military pa
rade.
The visitors won the toss and
Bradley booted the ball on the kieR
off Naugatuck rushed the ball back
to the 50-yard line where the locals
regained it on a tumble. By steady
p1unging the Gold and Red brought
the ball within hailing distance OF
the goal posts where a neatly exc
cuted forward pass, Rosenberg to
Hubbard resulted in the first score.
In the second period runs by Hib-
bard, Captain Connolly and McChristy
resulted in the second score. The
final score came in the third period
when Captain Connolly placed the
spheroid behind the goal posts.
The opening game frightened the
hopes of the followers of the team,
who are satisfied that the eleven will
be able to give a good account of it
self when the important games with
Hartford and New Haven are played.

RABID COYOTES
GROWING SCARCE

Winnemucca Silver State: E. r.
Sans, in charge for the Government
of the rabid coyote situation in
northern Nevada and California. re-
turned from the latter State Thurs
day. He reports that rabies has
been practically exterminated in
Modoc and Lassen Counties and that
the California board of health has
withdrawn from the field. AT the
request of stockmen, Mr.. Sans will
leave the Government force at work
for a short time longer. In suppress
ing the coyotes, the hunters and
trappers also killed nearly every dog
in the two counties. The disease
was practically confined to the two
counties mentioned, although one or
two cases we're discovered in Shasta
County.
In northern Nevada the disease
may be said to have been nearly ex-
terminated, the only rabid coyotes
killed are an occasional one in White
Pine, Lander and Eureka Counties,
averaging not more than ten per
cent of the animals killed. In Hum
boldt County there has not been a
rabid coyote found in two months,
although a large number of the ami
mails have been killed. The same
conditions exist in Elko County.

Henry went to San Francisco where
he engaged in business. Sol, the
