New Britain fans who watched
the game between All-New Britain
and Mulligan's Blues we're favora-
bly, impressed with the work OF the
center who was filing Joe Rogers
shoes. He was Robinson of the
University of Pennsylvania team.
Gil Dobie, football mentor at
Cornell, in his selection Of an All.
America and All-Eastern team, has
chosen Robinson as the pivot man
on his eleven. No doubt, Robinson
must have been a wonder in the
play in college because in his first
professional football game, he sure
did play a whale OF a game.
It appears that third game be-
tween All-Sew Britain and the
Blues will not take place. Every-
body Is satisfied to fold up the old
football toys as far as Mulligan's
team is concerned. Mulligan will |
as II Is reported that he paid over
$4,000 to put the team he had on
the field Sunday.
Even though they won victory |
last Sunday, the Blues are to be
pltied, Apparently they haven't a
home. Now Mulligan wants to take
them to Boston to play the Chicago !
Bears with the far famed Red"
Grange on the team.
We wonder, after seeing all the
names the team now holding Hart
ford as its home quarters is called,
what Is coming next. Hartford peo-
pie, unable to keep team Of their
own. insist that the team Is the
Hartford Blues; Mulligan says the
teams name is the Mulligan Blues
II the astute George is successful
in landing The Boston Braves field
FOR the game with the Chicago
Bears, we wonder II his team will
then be the Boston Blues or Cod
