It was just four years ago, ac- Cording to the dope at hand that Tel Ter and Anderson tied things up for the state championship. They had to play 1t off before the title could be decided and Teller won out. In 1924, Teller again won the cham pionship. Last year, Anderson and he had a wonderful battle for hon. ors with Anderson leading when tho final matches were rolled.
 It had been said that Teller had the Indian sign" on the local pin toppler and was able to beat him whenever he pleased. Anderson blasted this least year by coming through 10 win the state champion ship and he feels now that there is no question but that he stands on even terms with tho Meriden man.
 The match tonight at Rogers al- ieys Is one also that will make the bowling fans flock around. Foote and Jerrold are bowling enemies of long standing and whenever tho two meet on the lanes the sparks arc sure 10 fly. Neither has decidedly beaten the other and there is question as to which one is the bet ter bowler. Tonights games should decide this question for a time at least,

If all that is being said abou our governor is true, Plainville ha' furnished the livest wire of g. gov ornor that the state has had in { long time.
 It was the Providence Journa which weighed the Plalngille ex ccutivc as follows:
 Somehow Governor Trum- bulls name appears in the paper more than that of almost any other state executive in this part of the country. Per haps he has a talent for pub llcity; or 1t may be that he is merely so energetic and enter prising that he just naturally gets into the news"

QUIGLEY's STAB AT \ FOURTH TERM

George A. ouigley, who has been mayor three times. and has been the Peck's bad boy Of the Repuh. lican party in the city, again is in the lImclght of local politics. III. announcement that he will run for fourth term fl nominated at the city primary indicates that all Is not well within the ranks Of the party which is not as yet able to pick a mayoraIty candidate to fling against the stone wall Of Paonessa
 The decision or determination c! Quigley to run upon the Republi' can ticket at the primary indicates the former mayor has lost patience with the folks who have been try, ing 10 operate the machinery; that he is dissatisfied with all candi' dates so far mentioned as possible runners In the city election: and that he has about concluded toe much time is being wasted and that Quigley himself may as well TUT and start something.
 It is bad news for the local c o. P. of course. It means warn, scrap, for once Quigley has started as a candidate there Is very little likelihood that he will turn back And there Is also a plentiful lack Of possibility that the city machine will step aside merely because Quigley has thrown a brick at the bandwagon.
 ouigley has been the most in. sistent and persistent fighter with in the Republican ranks against ar extension of the Roraback state machine In New Britain. There was on opportunity for truce in the battle following the death of George ". Klett when Quigley intimatet that If somebody he could approve of were named as a successor tc the late state central committee man for his district he might bc willing to play marbles with the boys. But It Is apparent nothing oi the kind happened, and QuiglcS finds 1t necessary 10 sharpen his battle axe once more.
 Quigley was our war mayor; ant he learned much about warfare oi all kinds during that period. Now he again Is upon the warpath and will give the Republicans chance 10 determine at the primary whether they prefer the Rorabacb machine candidate or himself, pro- vided ho Is opposed in the primary But he can carry a little water upon both shoulders all the same letting it be known that if he 1f successful at the primary he will be pleased 10 accept the support of the state machine; and in fact has been promised such support ir ! event of his success. But don'r blanc Quiglcy for this system. Il 1 he is nominated there is nothing left for the state machine exc"p' to support him. or through inac- ton virtually help the Democrats 1 If nominated Quigley has the state machine just about where he car dictate terms; and he ought 10 bC a good dictator,
