HILLTOP GRIDDERS
 LINE UP AGAINST CROSBY, WEDNESDAY
By CHICK CREATION.

Last weeks triumph over the New Haven High-the first of the season, was sign of encouragement for Bridgeport Highs footballerS, and when the Red and Black tangles with Crosby Wednesday at Newfield Park they will be spurred on with renewed spirit and determination in uphold ing B. H. s. gridiron glory which had begun to founder in the rut of das- pair.
 There is no reason now that the rebellion is over and Eddie Reilly has been given full charge as coach, that the Hilltoppers should not put up the brand of football which only a B. H. s. taem should, and win a majority of their games. True, they lost their first two games, sonething g that has not happened of the Red eleven this season did not play Fair field or Derby as has been customary in recent years In fact they tackled about the two strongest teams in the state in Ansopia and Naugatuck. This is attested by their records. Last fall Ansonia won all of her games but one, numbering among the victims, Stamford High and Elgin, H., High held Ansonia to a scoreless tie and whipped Crosby, the latter team play ing Bridgeport a tie.
 As stated above there is no reason why the Red and Black should not have a winning team now that the trouble and confusion is settled. The material certainly is there as was demonstrated in the New Haven tilt last week. In this game the team showed a hundred per cent improve ment. Marvellous driving power and good team work which were lacking in the two previous games were in evidence in this setto. All the back field men showed up brillia ntIy; mak- ing steady gains through the New Haven line. Captain Frankie Mertens played sensational game at quarter back, the position left vacant by Ray Shea who has resigned. He brought runner after runner to earth when they had crushed aside the first line of defense.
 Reports from Waterbury have it that Crosby has a mediocre eleven and according to that the locals should win. But in football the dope has an alarming tendency to go wrong at times and the followers of the Red and Black are hoping that this will not be one of the times. Last season Crosby and Bridgeport battled to a ScorlelaSS tie in the Brass Citv

Kaplan Guaranteed $3,OO0 for Chaney
 Go, Friday Night

Kid KapIan, the Meriden feath- erweight. will receive the largest purse Of his career for his bout with Andy Chaney of Baltimore at Weiss Park next week. Ac- cording to the articles Of agree ment, IxapIan Is to receive a fiat guarantee of S3,OOO with 8 privi- lege of accepting 30 per cert. of the gross receipts, far and away the most he ever pulled down for a single battle. For boxing Mickey Travers at New Haven a year ago, kapIan was given $1,- OO0. Since that time, however, Kaplan has become the most popular boxing idol in the state.
 Chaney, although he has never arr,eared in a bout in this section, will also be paid well. The fig ures in his contract call for a cool $2,5OO with the same privilege as that of Kaplan-to accept 30- per, cent. of the gross. This means that the star bout will stand the promoters $5,5S0, the largest sum ever paid to boxers outside of the championship class.

The Collegians of this city travelled to Stamford yesterday and were beaten by the All-Stamfords, at Hal lowe en Park, by the score of 32-0.
 Although the All-Stamfords piled a Dig score 1t does not mean that there was as large a margin of superiority as that score would indicate. The Collegians went to Stamford minus four Of their star players and sub stitutes had to be found to fiji the gap at the last minute.
 Although the new substitutes were all good men still the fact that they were not acquainted with the various signals and formations and prevents ed them from showing at their best
 The game was witnessed by a ca paelty crowd and they were treated With a good game of clean, hard foot ball. Penalties were very few and the playing in general was of a high variety. Tom Reilly, the giant tackle of the ColIegians, was the outstan again this 200 pounder thrilled the crowd with his sensational tackles. Gaynor and Giiroy were the two stars of the baIekfieA. Gilroy made some ball which was another feature. While the tackHng of Cavanaugh and Daley also featured the game.
 Captain Duffy and Cante1lo were the outstanding stars of the Lock City aggr regation. Duffy is rated very highly as a football player throughout Connecticut and he lived up to his reputation by his consistent ground gaining ability.
 This was the first game of the sea- son for the Collegians and although they were defeated by a large score they are not in the least bit discour- aged. The next playing date will find them with their full team in ac- ton and this coupled by hard practice will improve their playing 100 per cent. Practice at Seaside Park Tues day afternoon, 2:30.
