Sterling Snapper-back of Meriden Returns to Local Lineup and Is to Play Regularly All Sea- son-New Haven Blues Tomorrow.

Of prime interest to the New Brit ain football fans is the positive an- nouncement that Joe Rogers. All Connecticut center and by many re- garded as the peer of any college center in the east last fall, Is to again don an All-New Britain uni- form and will be in the local lineup against the New Haven Blues on Sunday.
 Rogers early in thet season joined the squad of the Meriden National Guard team. He has played few games with that outfit and has shown that in every way he Is up to his last years form. However Joe's heart and soul, athletically speaking, is in the New Britain team and when the management sent him an sos. this week he responded. Rog- CTS told a Herald reported last night that he has definitely made up his mind to finish the season with New Britain and stated positively that he would play with the locals Sunday. As a center, Rogers is second to none in this neck of the woods and the pivotal position is where the To- calls have been lamentably weak all season. Now, with Rogers holding down the snapper-b back berth, the rest of the line and the wing posi-s tions taken care of by the already wells established material, the de- fense is as near perfect as it can be made. ,.
 Then with Tommy Tully and George Talbot as quarters the outfit has a combination of brains and brawn that cannot be beaten. Fully probably is faster on his feet and can run with the ball better than George, but in the crisis, in the pinch, then good old Talbot comes through with the brain work. Fans have noted all season how the team picks up in crisis when Talbot takes the helm. With these two boys alternating this position should cause no worry.
 The backfield is equally good and with Sanford to do the bunting as well as share in the line plunging, the other backs will have a well earned rest and should be even bet ter than they have been.
 Tomorrow's game should be d humdinger. ~+."~ Manager Max Coden of the New Haven Blues, writes the local man. agement that he is bringing to this city well balanced club. The Blues played last Sunday at Providence. R. l.. against the celebrated Steam Rollers. and the team made a very creditable showing. The Elm City team from all accounts were the victims of bad "breaks" toward the
 end of the game. In the lineup will be McHugh. Coyle and Donlin, who were with the Blues last season in
 the game at Hoffman's Field. In c,
 Sullivan and Heerin, the Elm City
 club is said to have as sweet pair
 of ends as any club in these parts
 can boast. /
 The management will again throw
 open the gates at Memorial Field
 free to the ladies on Sunday after
 noon. It is expected that the ban
 ner crowd of the season will be on
 hand to watch how good the locals
 can go with the popular Joe Rogers back at center.

 Of Bout

Madison Square Garden, N. T., Oct, 11.-Louis (Kid) kaplan of Meriden, Conn, stopped Angel Diaz. of the Panama Canal zone in the third round, which lasted two min. utes, in the feature contest sched. uled for ten rounds last night in Madison Square Garden.
 Kapan, who was down to one quarter pound over the feather weight limit, never showed up bet ter in any New York appearance.
 The Meriden boy seemed to dis card his usual imitation of Harry Greb on a busy night. Instead, he came at his man toe to toe, bea' Diaz to the punches and boxed cool ly and cleverly from the start. He had the Cuban down twice in the second round.
 Diaz, his victim, is featherweighl champion of the Canal zone. winning the title on a decision over Jose Lombardo. A few weeks ago in his debut here. Diaz gave Allentown Johnny Leonard a tough battle or short notice. Last night Diaz was in rare shape.
 Kaplan seemed to have an. edg' on the first round, getting over q left uppercut to the head that shook Diaz. The second looked like h finish of the Cuban. A left hook t' the chin sent him down for tn count of six and soon alter, rlgh cross to the jaw dropped Diaz 10 nine. Kaplan landed d terrific lei uppercut to the head that had Ange wobbling at the bell.
 In the third, Diaz came back gamely but ran into a fierce pum' melng. He managed to get over good right to Kaplan's jaw but Lotus never budged and came back with right counter to the jaw, that drop ned him fiat on his back, his hca( Hitting the floor with resoundlhE whack.
 Diaz struggled gamely and manag ed to roll over on his knees. H' shook his head trying to throw or the effect of the blow and managed to get to his feet just after the fata ten. He was in no condition to con tinue. even if he had managed tt come up in time.
 Kaplan was given quite an oVatlo' bv the crowd and the consensus oI oninion was that Louis will have strong say when it comes to nomln' ating Dundee's successor. f
