Continued from Preceding Page) and are confident but not over con- fident that the victory will come to l twentieth anniversary of their athle- tic relations.
 Must Keep Up Record The boys have several things to fight for on Saturday; they must keep Hartford from defeating them on their own grounds, feat Hartford has not done since relations were es- tablished in 1898, they must prevent them from scoring since Hartford had not scored here since 1912, and has only scored twice before in the games played in New Britain. These are | some of the things they will fight for but the real, and most important ob- | jective is to win. The foregoing members of the squad will have to bear the brunt of this all-important struggle.
 Last Hard Workout. The practice sessions are filled with action and .VA boys are having their last hard vAAlut this afternoon. Yes terday f~ .oon the team had stiff practice and to those who watched them, they looked great They went | about their work seriously, and ac- | cording to observers are now as smooth a working combination as any other that has represented the school before. The drubbing they received from tho Troy Conference Academy had a beneficial mental effect on them in that it will prevent them from get ting the over confidence that usually goes to winning teams. They will go in the game determined to square themselves for their indifferent show ing in Vermont last week.
 Line shows Up Better.
 The line which disappointed the teams followers in last weeks game looked good in the workout last night The force from it seemed irresistible. They charged low and hard. It re- semblcd a kamming machine. On the line will ~depend New Britain's chances of victory. II will have 10 rive away just about 10 pounds in weight. and about a year or more Of experience. but it must make up for this in whatever way possible. If the line plays any way consistently victory will come to New Britain. Tho New Britain backtiold is better than that of tho Hartford team, but it will be at the mercy Of the Blue and White line if the New Britain for wards do not play their game,
 Neipp Plays Against star.
 The one man in tho line that much | depends is Ernie" Neipp, who has Hartiord's star and captain to play against al center. In the games this season, Smith has played rowing center and has made tho majority of | tackles Tor his team, If he Is held | half tho battle is won and If Neipp does this he will have done more l than any one clso on the team. Ike" Baron is another tough customer He | ls terrific line pinnger, and con- sisient groung gaincr, Not ono team has been able to entirely stop him this | season, and he has accounted for twice as many first downs as any other members Of tho backneld
 Secondary Defense.
 The Red and Gold hsckncld will | hasn much Co do. Hartford has sev. eral deceptive forward passing forma. tionS and it will bc their task to be | careful Of being sucked in." Evans. lrit end on Inc team, is q whirlwnd at catching passes, and it is up to Right Half Back Gierochowsk to stop him. The bockiield in scrimmagc had | the opportunity to develop a defense | for these passes yesterday afternoon. out of 10 passes tried by inc seconds, | only one was completed, An tho other | werc either intercepted or knocked | down. Giorochowsl was especially | good at this. The team had a black board drill in Dr. XNick's office Tues cay night Dr. Zwick showed each | individual his duties in every one Of the many plays the team has in it's possession.
