.r Interest today centers in the
Yale-Army game in New
Haven, when the Blue and the
Gray enter into what promises
to be one of the most spectacu-
lar sporting events of the foot
ball season. 1t goes without
saying that society will turn
out in full force, the limited
number of seats being the only
bar to New Britain appearing
en- masse at the Bowl on this
memorable occasion. Of course,
there will be any number of
dances tonight to celebrate the
event, one of the largest in
town being the dinner dance at
the Shuttle Meadow club,

and dancers will number more
than 225. Almost all the club
members are planning to be
present and, of course, a great
many of them will entertain

ways come home for the game
and they will, of course, come
to dance.
So, there you are. So many
of the school set, the large
group Of younger married folk
and the representative gather
ing of the older folk that are
sure to be there already as

Louis Young is chairman of
the committee of arrange
ments, the other members be-
ing MRS. Hartwell Taylor, Mrs,
Carl Messenger, Mrs. William
Rowland and William T. Coho-

big idea is TO get it turning over

The first thing to do is to look in

is nothing else to do but pull the gas
line down and trace the impediment
that way.
But if you are positive the fuel
is flowing freely and still the engine
won't start the trouble may lie in the
ignition system. If the starter won't
turn the engine look to your battery

How about the primary circuit?
Remove the distributor head, turn
the switch to the ION" position and
then move the breaker points back
and forth with the fingers. If

there If you don't get the spark
why turn the engine over By hand
a couple Of times and try again.
No spark yet? Then the trouble is
in the primary circuit and you must
