management has filled out the sched-
ule this year and will play mostly
all college teams. From the record
the Sub Base team has piled up this
year, this outfit will also give New
Britain tough go next Sunday. It's
generally the case that the teams
which are expected to fash goot
football generally fall and those
which are not considered 50 good,
are the best bets Take last Sun
days case for instance,
Reports have 1t that n New Brit
ain finally succeeds In making ar
rangements to play the Waterbury
Blues, big Bill" Warner will be
lack In the line for the game. This
Is good news to use and We think 1t
is good news for the fans in general.
II Is reported that story was
circulated about town that Warner
was afraid to show up here TO play
against the Yellow Jackets Ind the
New York Giants. If these same
persons are not acquainted with the
story OF why Warner Is not playing
with New Britain at the present
time, they should find out why and
stop such dwelling nonsense. War
ner has plenty Of reasons for not
playing with the team and his re-
lations with the New Britain man
agement are the best that could
exist between any parties. At the
present writing, we are not allowed
to make public the reasons because
Of the fact that they might hurt.
but we know that they are very SUBJ
stantial and because Of them we also
know that Warmers position is one
wherein he could do nothing but
resign. He will, however, probably
be back with New Britain for the
Waterbury games.
Negotiations were opened up again
last Friday night between the Wa
terbury and New Britain manage
ments pertaining to game between
All-New Britain and the Waterbury
Blues, but as Mulligan is still asking
for so per cent OF the gate In New
Britain, the possibility Of games be-
tween the, two teams are just where
they have been. There will be no
game until Mulligan comes down to
earth. Just now, he is sailing higher
than any airplane ever went and he'll
stay there If he expects New Britain
to let him have his way.
Not content with this. en1issartes
Of the Waterbury Blues management,
we have heard it reported, have
made attempts to take Barnikow
and Captain Joe, Rogers from New
Britain. Both of these players were
made offers by the representatives
ostensibly sent out from the Blues
camp, but the offers were promptly
turned down.
Barnikow and Rogers would be
good men with any team, but New
Britain fans have always given them
what has been due them, and we
have been assured that there Is lit
tie chance of them making the
change.
This attempt, however doesn't set
we'll with US nor will 1t set well with
the fans who have been backing the
team here when 1t becomes known.
II the Waterbury Blues are finding
that they cans support their high
priced stars, that Is their fault and
1t is anything but sportsmanlike to
try to steal players from another
team. We are glad to note that the
two Merden boys are honorable
enough to turn q deaf ear to the
proposals.
Several changes are being con-
templated in the locals lineup. One
is to take WILDLY" Neale from half
back and put him in quarterback
and shift Radzewich from quarter
back to halfback. Neale is a good
man at directing the team and the
main reason for the change Is that
at the present time, "Raddy" does
not get the chance he should to
carry the ball. "Raddy" is primar-
fly a ,halfback and although he has
made wonderful quarterback, his
play is needed more in the halfback
position and Coach Pond is going
to make the shift.
Another end is coming to New
Britain, SO, the dope states, and he
is one of the most prominent men in
football today. He will be sent in
atPerry Beams end, If secured and
Perry, the man of the hour. will be
put into the big hole at left tackle.
Perry is-a sure tackler and his case
too Is not that he isn't good at end,
but he is needed to plug the hole in
the line and there he will be placed.
The Falcons A. c.. football team
will hold practice tonight at 1880
o'clock in Dujack's hall and all
members of the team are requested
TO be on hand.
Jack Tobin has arranged to have
the Corbin Red Sox baseball team
annual banquet Thursday night of
this week. This will mark the cele-
bration Of the teams winning the
championship of the city.
s--
1t appears to be common news
that All-New Britain is attempting
to secure "shep'' Bingham, Yale
end who is Ineligible to play with
the team. We did not mention the
name because of the fact that pub
licity to the fact might injure both
the player and the local teams
chances Of Getting him. However.
the fact has been made public and
