HIGH SCHOOL N FIRST OF
 LEAGUE SERIES TOMORROW
Hillhouse High of New Haven to Be Opponent at Memorial Field - Game at 2:30 p. m. - Teams We'll Matched.

The New Britain II. s. eleven will play the first triangular league game Saturday afternoon at Willow Brook park when they meet the big bues team representing the New Haven High. The New Haven team averages 15s pounds, the New Britain 155 pounds. In the visitors backfed there will he stevens and Roberts who are considered by many to be among the leading back field men of the state. Barrett and Larson the other two men in the backfied are also veterans and to be counted upon as dangerous foes. New Haven has an old and experienced team this year and their packers feel 1t is winning aggrega- l ton.
 They man he sadly surprised how ever, when they meet the wearers of the red and gold who learned their lesson at the Taft game and have been practicing faithfully all this week to perfect the interference : and make the pass work more ac- curate, In the earlier part of the week the team was kept at tough scrimmaging while tho latter part was devoted to signal practice and the technique of the game.
 Ernest Neipp who has been play ing at right end this season . was given an opportunity to show his skill in bunting and drop kicking and as he did both very well he may be given a chance to show his prowess in Saturdays game. Johnny Gripp. who has done the bunting so far this season, is show ing fine form. being able to get the ball off quickly for distance of forty to fifty yards consistently. Much will also depend upon Gripps end runs and his speed and skjllfuI lodging which have been big fac tors in all the games so far this , season. Stromquist, Belser and i O'Brien can be counted on at most any time for gains through the | line. Captain Zehrer who has been [ hard at work to bring about better team play is expected to feature in both running and line plunging.
 Considering the advantages Of both teams from all angles Coach Cassidy thinks that the teams are | pretty evenly matched for spirited battle from start to finish. The i second team men who will be called upon if necessary are Scul1y, Claire i Huber, Gennett and Gourson. The lineup of the teams is as follows: { New Britain New Haven Mccarthy a,,.........,.. {, Bologniso Left End
