 Outplayed and outweighed, but
 proud in their 9 to 0 victory of q
 week ago over the same team, the
 Plainville football eleven went down l to a crushing defeat at the hands of 1 their old rivals from Unionyille on the latters field yesterday afternoon. l The score. which was 26 to 6, does not reflect the brand of ball played
 by the losers, or the great battle that | the winners had to put up to obtain victory. It was hard fought, scrap oy contest from tht time the whistle | blew in the first period until the :inal signal. .t crowd of approximately l ,000 people watched the game. From spectator's point of view. 1t was great game to watch. The caret flowed aplenty. there was much of the old time mass 9ormation play l ing. few cleverly thrown forward | passes and number of brilliant
 dashcs down the field. l The game also provided series of
 entertainments for the spectators. In the beginning, the game was delayed owing to an altercation between Man. l ager Murphy Of the Plainville team l and Manager Kottenoff of the Union- i villes.. Murphy claimed that two of the Unionvlle players-one. a man named Mccarthy from Bristol--were Fingers The UnionNillc man. in turn. claimed that Bugbee of the
 Plainville team was s'ringer." A
 Wordy battle ensuod. both managers threatened to withdraw their teams; but it was finally settled when union- vile declared that they would dis pense with tho services of the alleged Fingers" and play their regular line- up and win too. They made good in both declarations.
 Unionville kicked off, and a series of dazzling rushes and great line bucking immediately brought tho ball up to the Unionville one yard line. Here the home town eleven stiffened and held, hut the hard hitting, fast backs of the locals were not to be denied and the ball was carried over. Quarterback Greene failed to kick the goal.
 Unionville then took the kick and uncovered a great brand of football. Led by McCue. and Captain Tibbals, they swept down the Plainville oppo- sition and marched down tho field for a touchdown and goal. This was shortly after followed by a second touchdown. and from then on the game was never in doubt. Painvillc fought a game fight and on the of- fcnsivc made some sensational gains, but the Unionville team was always just little bit better and when tho final score was counted the locals were on the small end Of as to 6.
 The game appeared to be rather clcany played, there being but few noticeable incidents of intentional fouling or slugging. However, since each team was playing whirlwind game and each man was putting his everything into each effort, there were numerous injuries and time had to be called on several occasions, Eand Charlie .Digse--who essays the role of first aid to the injured---was much in evidence with his little black bag.
 Between halfs the crowd was fur nished with an event not on the reg ular program! Supporters of each team were loud in their remarks and a Plainyillc young man and a union- vile packer got into wordy argu- ment that ended when both agreed to Ego over in the lot and settle it." The big crowd swarmed around them, ex- pecting to see fast and furious bout. It was fast and furious. but short lived. MT. Unionville squared off and "socked" Mir. Plainville in the right eye, closing the optic, and the fight was ended.
 The unionville police also figured | in little mixup when one of their | fellow townsmen, somewhat under the | Influence of strong drink, conceived the idea that he could flick the cop." He tried and failed. Friends came to | his rescue and carried him home. War Savings Stamps.
 Attention is called to a statement i made by Postmaster James Usher in regard to the approaching maturity on January of the 1918 issue of War Savings Stamps, the refunding of the U. s. treasury de- | partment, and the advisability of adjusting these securities now and so
