NEW BRITAIN HAS
 HARD GAME SUNDAY
Contest Will Be Started at 3::5O
 O'Clock Instead Of 2.5O

The All-New Britain football team will have one of It's hardest sessions of the season Sunday afternoon at Memorial field when the Silvertown football club of Springfield, Mass, takes the field in an attempt to set the locals back with their first de- feat. The hour of the game has been changed from 2:30 to 3:30 o'clock because it was felt that a large number of fans would like to listen in on the returns from the world series. Sundays baseball game will start at o'clock and this will give baseball fans an hour and a half to follow the game.
 The Springfield club which is coming here Sunday afternoon is one that will have to be reckoned with as one of the strongest professional teams in the east. Every man on the squad has had several years ex- perience with college teams and after several weeks of hard drilling, have worked themselves into smooth combination.
 Clements. formerly of Williams and last year with the Frankfort Yellow Jackets, is stationed at quar- terback. He coached the Springfield team and directs the play on the field. Those who followed the play fthe locals last year will remn~n- bcr him as a hashy man on his feet and his mates on the Springfield eleven may he judged the same.
 The Springfield team has a wealth of backs 10 choose from. Eight men in all can be selected for various combinations and the fact that they are all being rrouGht 10 this city attes)s 10 Il c fact that the club from the City of Homes wants to win Sundays game. Maddox of Spring. field college; Owen Murphy of Bos- ton college; Waldo Worcester; Lobo of Middlebury; Hannifan of Holy Cross; Berslinan of Dean Academy Meadows of Dartmouth and Black of Providence are the backs who will charge the New Britain line.
 McGann of Boston university; O'Neil, Smith and Parnell of last years New York Giants. will be on the ends. Parnell will be remem- bered as the man who so cleverly caught many of the forward passes last year.
 Phelan of Boston college and Wheeler of Dartmouth will be at on t.I or fa, NF Irn,-iIarno DI lege; Toby Lyons of Holy Cross and Johnson will be at the tackles; Tay- Tor will be center and number of substitutes will be held in readiness for use during the game.
 The New Britain management. realizing that the team is a tough proposition Sunday, will be greatly strengthened for the fray. Big Bill" Warner will be at the tackle position which he has filled so ca pably in the past; Thompson will be at halfback and a quarterback of national renowu will take charge of the field play. Should the local management be successful in land ing the man who is coming here to talk it over today. the locals will have one of the best in the country.
 Tickets for the Red" Grange game a week from Sunday in Hart ford at Clarkin field, will go on sale tomorrow. The ghost of the grid iron" is the greatest attraction pos sible for football fans and many re- quests have already been received by Manager Daley for tickets. Bleach- CTS have been secured and will be placed at advantageous places about the field so that all seats will have good focus on the gridiron.
