 In the big game last night the Worcester club, strengthened by Barney Doherty, formerly of Lowell. played a 'dashing game and during the first several minutes kept the home team in a defensive position even though Rd Williams did break through and score a couple of goals. The visitors showed great speed and splendid team play. With these as sets the local team was forced to break it up and then take the. of fensive only to be checked by the visitors backs and goal tender. At the close of the first period Bridge port was in the lead, to l:
 There was plenty of scoring in the second session when Mulhgan broke through with three goals and Hig- gins one, while the home club was getting only three tallies, but in the third ana last period Bridgeport won out.

King Pins Claim Football Honors
Defeat of Maplewoods On Lenox Field Gives Them
 What They Declare a F. s'': Clear Title

The fast and undefeated King Pin ,Jrs. in one of the fastest games ever played by a 40-50 pound team, de- feated the Map1ewood Jrs. by the city championship in the 40-50 pound class. < These two teams have played three previous games which ended in ties. S
 The first half started off with the Map1ewoods playing an exceptionally ing of Lisco. Smith and Berger. This half ended without score. The sec ond half with a crippled team the Pins went in for blood but at the Costello were carried from the field in a helpless condition, while Serfozo was insspoor condition and Anderso little better off but their game spirit held them to the game.
 In the beginning of the last quar- ter the Pins outplayed their rivals in every detail of the game by carrying the ball the length of the field with heavy line plunging and clever. play ing, to their rivals goal and Creagh rushed it over for a touchdown. The kick for goal was tried but failed.
 The Maplewoods kicked to the Pins in the last three minutes to play and the ball was recovered and carried for 30 yards The Pins at this period of the game rushed their opponents back for successive gains of 20 and 30 yards till within 10 yards of the goal when Sam Schine the Hebrew star, rushed the ball over for the second touchdown of the game. Goody re- covered the ball and kicked the goal. This was to be the Pins last game this season and claim to hold g. record uneQua1ed by any team that ever rep resented a 40-50 pound organization in this city. The Pins played a hard schedule throughout the season, com ing through with an unbroken string | of victories and no defeats. The team wishes to thank Tad Lancaster for I his wonderful coaching of the team throu g11out the season and for the playing of the team as, whole.
 The Pins will play the St. James | Jrs. Sunday at o'clock on LenoX | Field. but for no championship, just

 Checks Plan For F.
 Football Prizes
Says He Believes Sweaters An Unnecessary Expense
 For Students Now

Because he believes it is need less expense, James c. Moore, prin. cipal of the Bridgeport High School. informed one. of the football players today that he was the one who opposed sweaters for the players and the Board of Education had not made any suggestion in the matter.
 This made different situation en- tirely for last week the football play CTS were criticizing the Board o1 Education Members of the board were approached so that authority might be obtained for the sweaters and Dennis Mulvihill brought the matter to the attention of the other members in the form of a motion which was tabled. This gave the boys an idea that the Board of Edu- cation was opposed to any plan to give tokens of merit.
