New Britain herald., 1925-12-02

Al.New Britain football team stat, ed yesterday afternoon that he is planning 10 Insist that the third game between tho All-NcW Britain eleven and Mulligan's Blues he played. Manager Dailoy's mind, ho stated, has been made up since the Blues. after winning the game last Sunday, have laid claim 10 the state championship for this year,
 As matters now stand, MuliGan's Blues are only tied with New Britt ain for the championship Of Con- necticut Championships, according to Manager Daley cannot be de- cided by scores alone. They arc decided on games. Therefore, New Britain with one game won and Mulligans team with one game won are tied and there is no getting away from that fact.
 Blues Were Superior
 As publicity notices state, coming from Mulligan's camp the Water bury management figures that tho Blues showed so much superiority over the New Britain tenn last Sun day, that everyone is convinced that the crew representing themselves as a Hartford team Is q better com bination than All-Ncw Britain. That is conceded as far as last Sundays game is concerned.
 The fact stands, however, that the New Britain team was not the team that stacked up against the Mui- gan team in the first clash between the two clevens. The squad was depleted through the loss of four men, namely, Ching" Hammill, Captain Joe Rogers Thompson and Uncle" Connolly. The remainder of the team with very few cXcep- tons, was worn out and appeared stale. due. no doubt to the tough assignment handed it in Phiadol- phia at the Yellow Jacket glme.
 Wording of Contract
 The most important item in the relations between the New Britain and Mulltgan managcmcnts, how ever, is the fact that the contract drawn up and signed hy both par ties, calls for q third game in case that each team won one. Th" "li' in that clause is now removed. Each team has won q game which leaves the matter of champ pionshipS where it was before either Of thom won. The Waterbury team fig the pro(cs- sional champion eleven for 1924, but not yet at any rate for 1923. IL fs supposed in New Britain circles, that after the much hcralded victory of the Blues over the Red machine last Sunday, that the New Britain man. rgemcnt would take its defeat so 10 heart that it would conc"do inc Nut meg state championship to Mnli- gan.
 Christmas is coming, but the New Britain management hasn't been imbucl with the Christmas spirit to such an extent that it is ready 10 present Mulligun with the state championship until hn has earned it according to tho agreement with his agent Edward Curlcy signed here in New Britain.
 Nulligan iS Respected
 When it comes down to brass tacks, Now Britain as a popuaco re- spccts George Muligan for his of- forts in the sport world. There is no quarrel with Mr. Mulligan himself nor with his hackers. The question to he debated, Ml the Waterbury sports promoter must realize ii himself, is whether his team can claim a s,atr championship when il has only cyenod matters with New Britain team.
 If New Britain is 10 lose th" state championship, f is a conceded fact that it would rather lose to no ono more than to MuNcau, but il wiz most certainty have 10 be beaten be- fore it will give mp its claim 10 inc honors lur romrr'rG' The qUrs- tion of MGli-un's personal mt"grIty or honesty, for N,w Britain sport fans believe him to bo one ot rh, squares, shooters in rbn gam, doe, not enter into the question in tho least.
