Williams Will Play
 the Newport Team
Opening Game of Season for Crack Local Team at Weiss Park
 Sunday.

With practically the same lineup which won the championship of the naval bases last year when they scored victories over the Great Lakes and Norfolk teams the crack Newport Naval Reserve team will oppose the rejuvenated Williams at Weiss Park Sunday afternoon inr the opening game of the local football season.
 The gobs are coming here with a squad of 25 men, the pick of the en- tire station ,and as they have had the advantage of five or six weeks prac- tice they should make the Williams step pretty lively in order to slip over win.
 Nearly all of the old stars who helped in making the Williams the leader among the football teams of the state for the past few years are again back in the harness and in ad dition to these players are several youngsters who have, been playing some real football on the junior teams around the city striving earnestly for positions on the big blue team.
 Manager Colbert, who is looking after the Williams this year, prom ises the fans that the best teams in this vicinity will appear <at Weiss Park before the seasons finish ana has booked the champion New Britain team for next Sunday and the All Hartfords for the following week
 Plans are also in the works for series of games with the Bridgeport team, one game to be played in each city, and the toss of a coin to decide where the final game will be played if such a game Is necessary. The game Sunday will start at 3 o'clock and extra service will be given by the trolley company to take care of the fans,

 Thirty Rounds for Ball Park.

What promises to be the best box ing exhibition staged in New Haven Tn quite some time will be presented at Weiss Park next Saturday night, ctober 2I, under the auspices of the Hamden A. (. There will be three fine bouts on the card the result of the efforts of | Matchmaker Curran ahd from expres- sions heard around the city there is no doubt that capacity crowd will be | on hand when the opening bout gets under way at o'clock.
 The star bout of the evening brings together two boys who are rapidly approaching the top rung in the realms of fstiana, Andy Chany, the Baltimore. favorite, and Kid Kap1an, the Meriden flash. Clancy has taken on all corners and has two decisions over Johnny Kilbane to his credit, while no fighter in the game has better record for the past year than the, Silver City battler.
 It is the one ambition of Kaplan to force Johnny Dundee, the present holder of the junior lightweight crown, into the ring as Kaplan is very will be a new title holder. For that
 
 for this bout as he feels if he is re- turned a winner in his bout with Clancy that the frequent challenges hurled at Dundee can no longer be ignored;
 In the semi-hnal Jimmy Proto of New Haven and Kid Lewis of Hart ford will clash in 10 round engage ment and for a curtain raiser Collie Pleines is due to take on a real tough customer in Kid Howard, the Wall ingford boy who is cutting short the careers of quite few ambitious ring artists.

 The roads rolling stock IS in de- plorable- shape Space will not per init even a partial list of the tie-ups, falling to pieces of engines and other rolling stock, trains hours and nearly entire days late, trains that never start at all even though the crews are wait ing to take them out because there are no fit engines to be had and acci-. dents happening hourly, because ot the run down condition of the stock. The strike committee is in daily re- ceipt of these reports and they make a startling document. The pubic, however, is not made acquainted with the condition of things, reporters ot the daily press frankly stating that their papers would not use the facts so there is no use of them taking them.
 Operating officials of the road are thoroughly disgusted with the affairs but are helpless. Train crews, even though having a new agreement with the road, are so on edge that there IS much discontent among them, and ln fact all through with the possible ex- ception of MT. Bardo everyone con nected with the roads operation IS ready to call quits and call the shop men back to their jobs.

 ITO the Secretaries of All State Fed
 erations of Labor:
 Dear Sirs and Brothers:
 This is a most crucial time in the history of our country and it is most necessary that the wage-earners and all iberty-loving citizens awaken to the dangers ahead if the elections in November are in favor of reaction. The reactionaries are running mad in demanding legislation most abhorrent to the people of a free country. In- cluded in the proposed legislation are Compulsory labor, which means that the Wage-earners must work for wages, hours and under any condi- tons that may be determined by gov ernmental court or board. In fact, they propose involuntary servitude in this land of the free.
 Giving jurisdiction to federal courts over matters strictly within the jurisdiction of the state courts
 "The enactment of legislation in support of the nationwide injunction issued despite the constitution and laws of the land by newly appoint ed federal judge in Chicago on the application of the attorney general of the United States who was instrumen- tai in his selection. .- Establishment of a sales tax, which would relieve the well to do from taxation and place the burden upon those least able to bear it.
 Granting millions of dollars in ship subsidies to political friends while at the same time refusing to recompense soldiers and sailors who offered the supreme sacrifice.
 "The destruction of the direct pri- mary system so that candidates for public office will be selected by boss ruled conkentions
 "We Are enclosing the legislative records. on measures of interest to Labor and the people of all members of congress from your state. Let us urge the wage-earners and all other citizens to give earnest consideration to these records in ord CT that those who have been untrue to Labor and the people may be de- feated and those who have proved by their actions that they are worthy of the support of the wage-earners and all other liberty-loving citizens may be elected vi
