Football Fan Protests Releasing Of Stanley Nosc and Mike Landers From AlI-Ncw Britain Team.
New Britain, Conn,
 Sent 2g. 1e2h.

New Britain, Conn,
 Sept. 29, 1925. Sporting Editor:
 It is rumored among the football fans of the city that Stan Nose and Mike Landers are to be released from the All-New Britain football squad along with three more play CTS. We heartily agree with the releasing of the three other men as it looks in their case as if it weEe an indication of the spirit is there hut the flesh is weak" but l believe the management is making a mis- take if they entertain ideas of letting NosC and Landers go.
 Nose played his first game of the season last Sunday and one cant expect to get the kinks out of his system right off the bat. He was picked by many sport writers last season as an "All~Connecticut guard" and if he Is to be let go. watch how quick Waterbury grabs him.
 AS for Mike Landers, he has only played 9 few minutes this season so far and did not play at all last Sum- day, so how is it possible for the management 10 criticize his playing :? Landers is sturdy line-man who always plays his head off and is around to every practice and has a large following here who admire the quiet, unassuming lad from across the bridge. The men behind the managerial reins should think twice before they do anything 10 bring the ] lispleasure of the fans and hoping they see this letter in print, I re- main.

The acquisition by the All-New Britain football team of Red" o'Neil, former Connecticut Aggies star, will be welcomed by the fans. o'Neil is local boy and during one of the games last year wherein he sat on the bench much bruised and battered from a school game the day before. his popularity was attested to when the fans began 10 shout and call for him to enter the game. His condition was too poor to allow him to get in tho scrinmage and he remained on the bench. The an nouncement that he has been signed as q player this year will give the team more ot local aspect and will surely draw the hundreds of friends which O'Neil has in this city, to see him play.

Cleveland, March 6.--Four former Cleveland pitchers will be more or less in the baseball spotlight when the 1925 curtain ascends.
 They are Vean Gregg and Stanley Coveleskie of Washington and Wal ter Mails and Allan sothoron, St. Louis Cardinals. Each, in a broad sense of the word, is out to stage q comeback"
 Gregg, somewhere around the 40- mark in years, will be back in big time after an absence of several sea sons. He was 8 star hurler in the majors some 12 or Is years ago. Fact is, he was considered one of the best southpaws in the business. Then he slipped, and of recent years has been hurling out in the Pacific Coast league,
 Coveleskie, while he isn't "up from the minors" is, nevertheless, out to regain his old-time form. Covey, for the past few seasons, has been going back He figures. however, that with a change of scenery he will again pitch winning ball. It has worked out that way in other leases.
 Mails, after three seasons on the coast, will attempt to show some of the stuff that made him famous as member of the Cleveland club in i1920. This year, it will be recalled Mails, after joining the Indians late in the race, copped seven straight games and virtually carried Cleve- Hand to it's first pennant. He also starred in the world series that fall.
 Obviously, much was expected of Mails the next season. But he fall- ed to live up to expectations. And ere the 1921 chase was half over, he had been shunted back to the min ors. Now he is to get another trial.
 Sothoron has played with several clubs. He was with Cleveland a couple of seasons back. From there he drifted into lower classification Last spring, however, he caught or with the Cards. and, though only en- toying a fair degree of success vii, be taken south again, Hickey sttl
 having faith in him,
 The work of this quartet is cer tain to be watched with more thar usual interest this season. For eff forts to come back in any branch O
 endeavor seem to appeal and attrac
 much attention.
