LOCALS WILL PLAY
 SUB-BASE ELEVEN
Postponed Game to Be Staged at
 Memorial Field Sunday

The An-New Britain football team will bring to this city next Sunday afternoon. one of the best attractions in the entire state when the United States Submarine Base team of New London takes the field against the local eleven at Memorial Field in Willow Brook park.
 The game was originally scheduled for last Sunday and although both elevcns were lined up at the park ready to play, rain came down in torrents and spoiled whatever chance there was to play the game. The sailors were prepared to send in their best bets against the New Britain machine but as had hap pened the previous week, the wealth. CT was against the local promoters.
 New Britain will be up against the strongest opposition of the sea son when this clash takes place. Lieutenant Mather, manager of the team, brought a squad of 36 men to this city last Sunday. Going away with the game postponed, he asked Manager Ed Daley to keep next Sunday open for him because he wanted to bring the team here. He said that he has the best team at the Base that he has had in years and warned Manager Daley that he was out to beat New Britain.
 On the Base team are four former members of the Naval Academy team. These men had added much strength to the defensive and offen- sive play of the sea-going outfit and form a quartet of threats that will keep the New Britain secondary de- fense on it's toes all through the game.
 The local team has now had a lay off of two weeks, but Coach Dave Hayes is guarding against any pos sible let up in'the form of the play CTS. He has outlined a hard sched- ule of practice this week and he promises to have the team in shape for the hardest offensive team of the year.
 Manager Ed Daley is working now on filling out the backheld, He is awaiting word from Nick Dora of Norwalk on his coming with New Britain this coming Sunday and he feels certain that he will land Ed Hunts running mate for Sundays 8  game and probably for the rest of the season. All other members of the New Britain team are reported to be in good shape, all injured players return to form and being ready to enter the game Sunday.
 The Base team will bring a large number of rooters with them this Sunday and Lieutenant Mather states that the sailors have formed a picturesque cheering section that will lend added colors to the grid iron battle.

. Chicago, Oct. 27-tP)-AIinnesota, generally waved aside as a big ten title possibility after a crushing de- feat by Michigan, cast a long shadow in the weeks western conference football.
 The Gophers definitely loom factor in the championship battle, with everything dependent on Satur- days showing against Wisconsin.
 With Coach Spears away from the squad through illness, Minnesota turned back North Dakota but went down before Notre Dame and Michigan in succession.
 Doc" came back, and last week the Gophers threw passes hitherto and yon to defeat Wabash, non-con- ference opponent, 67 to [ whereas Purdue, which played q scorelcss tie with Wisconsin and. last week con- quered Chicago, worked hard for d 2l-14 margin on Wabash.
 After Wisconsin, Minnesota meets Iowa, which made q poor showing against Ohio and steps outside the conference to play Butler as practice for a return game with Michigan. The Wolverines at that time. No vembcr 20, will be winding up a campaign against Navy. Wisconsin and powerful Ohio State. which should give Minnesota a physical advantage.

 The game is the big conference encounter Of the week, Northwestern confidently expecting to score a re- turn triumph over Indiana and Ohio taking Chicago in the stride of spectacular defeats of Columbia at New York and Iowa. Both are con- centrating on second teams. At Michigan, Yost was gloomy of mien and professed much over the Vol verines fortunes against Navy at Baltimore Saturday. Departing for the seaboard tonight, Yost devoted the final session of the home field to long drill at the forward passing game which has little more than streaked the Michigan play so far thi- fall

FRED CLARKE HAS
 QUIT PITTSBURGH
Veteran Of Many Campaigns
 Retires for Good, He Says

Pittsburgh. Oct. o7 UP - Fred c. Clarke. who 20 years ago piloted the Pittsburgh Pirates 10 four Ma tional league pennants and one worlds title, has severed his con- nection with the club.
 From his home in Winfield. Kan sas. Clark yesterday notified Cor sair officials that he had resigned as vice president and a director of the club.
 Thus the man to whom was given much of the credit for Pitts burgh's successful fight for the Ma tional league pennant in 1925 joins Manager Bill McKenchie, May Carey, Babe Adams and Carson Bigbee in the ranks of those whose careers with the Pirates have been terminated directly as result of the international dissension that developed last summer.
 That dissension arose when Clarke's presence on the bench in the role of adviser to McKech- nie brought strenuous objection from some of the players, chief among whom, 1t was said, were Carey, Adams and Bigbee.
 After these three had been dis missed from the club, Clarke an- nounced he never again would oc- cupy a seat in the dugout. It was freely predicted at that time that he would not care to remain with the club for long after charges that his presence on the bench hinder ed Mckechnie, had been leyelled against him. McKechnie himself was released recently and has been succeeded by Ben J. (Donie) Bush. manager of the Indianapolis American association club.
 Clarke, as manager of the Pi- rates from 1900 to 1915. won Na- tional league pennants in 1901. 1902, 1903 and 1909. He reioined the club in 1925.

Mir. Dooley of Dartmouth. some times called Mickey" has certainly had his ups and downs in collegiate football. If you don't believe it. listen to this tale of woe:
 After starring for Dartmouth in 1924 and being elected to the cap- taincy Of the 1925 eleven, an acci- dent suffered in a fall from a horse forced him to retire from college for year.
 Dartmouth then proceeded 10 win the 1925 championship minus the one player the coaches had banked on. The big noise at Dartmouth last year was "Swede" Oberlander.
 This fall Dooley, on his return 10 Dartmouth, finds he must fill the shoes of the great Oberlander to live up to his past reputation.
 He's throwing a mean foot in that direction, as shown in the above action picture.

SOCCOLI EATERS POLICE
 N STATE BILLIARD PLAY
Both Cueists Get Off to Poor Start-Local Boy Turns in Two Runs Netting Him 54 Balls in Last Two h. nings-Finishing Form Last Night Brands Him As Strong Contender For State Title This Season - Large Crowd Watches Interesting Battle.
Dominick soccoli of this city, en-

Dominick Soccoli of this city, en- try in the state pocket billiard championship competition, last night realized an ambition of two seasons standing when he turned back Louis Police of New Haven in state league match played at the Elmore Billiard Academy. Both players got off to a very poor start but Soccoli manager to seize all favorable op- portunities and finished the game with lead of A winning 100 to SC.
 In the first half of the match, Soc coli couldn't hit his stride while his New Haven opponent was having a good night. The score at this stage was S7 to 4S in favor of Police. Then the fireworks started.
 Soccoli made two deliberate scratches and Police made one, both applying strategy in the battle. Sud- denly Soccoli found himself and ran off cluster of 23 balls and resorted to another safe. Police was "sewed up" and couldn't score a ball.
 In the next inning. the local cue artist made an unfinished run of 3l sending. his out and bringing the victory to New Britain. There was large crowd on hand to witness the play and those who were backing both men forgot the poor showingFin the first half of Soccoli's feat Of beautiful pool in clicking of 54 balls in the last two innings.
 Soccoli's showing last night brands him this year as a very strong con- tender for the state title. He has been up In the ranks in previous seasons but never showed the form that he is in at present. Last nights match shows that he has made a success of following his motto in scoring a strong finish and as this brought him victory last night, he will probably follow this course of action in all future matches.
 His start last night was a poor one, but it is ascribed by his follow CTS more to over-anxiousness than else and as he came through in wonderful style to cop the match against his most bitter rival, his packers are roofing for him to clean up the state ranks.
 Soccoll will play his next home match the the Elmore Billiard Academy next Tuesday night, his opponent to be selected at later date.

RICHARD DENIES
 PLANS FOR BOUT
Promoter Says He Hasn't
 Signed Dempsey to Contract

New York, Oct. 27 Pl-Tex Rick ard denied today that he had sign ed Jack Dempsey to a contract for bout with Gene Tunney, who stripped the champion of his title at Philadelphia, and declared that he doubted whether Dempsey would ever don the padded mits again.
 Hes got so much money that the game may not have the old appeal to him." the promoter ex- plaincd. "He may not like the idea of training and working hard be- fora and during a fight. Unless he is enthusiastic, or at least inter- ested in his work, 1t would do Dempsey more harm than good to return to the ring.
 q have no intentoin right now of sending Dempsey into the ring against Tunney in Cones first start as heavyweight champion next year. Dempsey should go through one or two trials before tackling another title bout for the double purpose of assuring himself and the public as 10 his fighting form and condition.
 "Dcmpsey's a young boy yet, V Rickard continued. Hes strong, healthy and has plenty of good fighting in him. He has the per sonality that draws people to him and q fighting style that pleases, but doubt that. he will resume fighting"
 Rickard at q luncheon appoint ment with the former champion to- day planned 10 learn more of Dcmpseys plans for the future. In the meantime, development of the present crop of heavyweight ma tcrial to the point where a meeting of one of them with Tunney is feasible Is occupying the promo ter's mind for the present.
