New Britain herald., 1925-11-09

school game next week when II de- feated Crosby High school of Wa terbury by fl 10 c score before q crowd of over t?oo fans at M'mo- rial field in Willow Brook park, Saturday.
 Feelings ot douht have descended on the ranks Of team followers be- cause of the sorry showing of the squad in victory. Crosby, the under dog. which came here feeling defeat, arose and threatened tn score as early as the first few minutes of play, and played as good If not better football for the rest of the game as the highly touted Red and Gold eleven, The Brass City team was well coached in the fun damentsls of forward passing, and it kept the Hardware City team in fear of its proweSs at all times. New Britain looked weak in its dc fense of this attack.
 It was apparent that the New Britain team is getting conscious of it's ability and the feeling is that all 1t will have 10 do for the rest of the season is 10 put on a uniform and the game is won. Past records will not win present games. Those who saw the Red and Gold aggrega- ton in every game this season know that the exhibition put up Saturday was far below its usual form. With out "Yankee" l.acava's offensive work, and without the aid of Gour- fense the team would have been beaten, by the same score by which it won. Hartford will win if the Red and Gold team plays like 1t did Saturday.
 New Britain scored towards tho end of the first quarter after the ball had zig-zagged back and forth between the Crosby and New Britain teams in each others territory. The score was made after a march from mid-held. The other score was made in the last quarter when La cava crashed over for a touchdown from the one yard line.
 New Britain depended almost en- tirely on straight line plays 10 carry it through to victory Only on few occasions were end runs tried. A few forward paSsrs Wor" also tried in the game. In the latter plays the receivers fell down miscrably. StromQuist threw sev- cral pretty passes 10 players with an open field in front of them but they would drop the ball with q sure touchdown in sight.
 However, il is expected that the Franklin Square boys will throw everything they hayo into next weeks game, and will feel free to use all the plays they have been holding for the gamc,
 Sixteen first downs were scored by New Britain 10 10 for Waterbury. Most of Crosbya gains were mad" on forward passes or runs around New Britnin's left end. With the exception Of on" end run hy Clair and two hy Bray all other New Britain downs were scored on pIungos at the linv
