 It's Leg and Leg Now The meeting tonight will be the third of the season, each quintet hav- ing a verdict over the other. In the first meeting of the teams at Hart ford, Tim Cronin's men were victori- ous by d lone tally. A few weeks ago, before a record breaking crowd, the locals evened up matters, by winning |31 to A.
 First Chance for Sake
 All of the locals arc in tip top shape for tonight's fray. Johnny Saxe, who was not in the lineup on the previous occasions, should bolster the local de- fense materially.

 Local Hooters on Hand
 Hundreds of local followers or the team will make the journey to the Capital City to witness tonight's fray.
