New Britain herald., 1926-11-13

Manager Edward J. Daley an- nounced today that Big Bilp' War ner. the tackle who made such big hit in New Britain last season and the season before, will be with New Britain in the game against Springfield.
 Warner was injured in a game Tn the early part of the season and It was thought for a time that ne would be unable ever to play toot- ball again. The injury, however, was nowhere as serious as was at hrs' thought and he has been playing all along.
 We doubt very much if a more popular player ever graced a NC" Britain uniform. Warner has been nIaying with New Britain for sev- eral seasons and in every game, ne has worked hard to win. This has been appreciated by the fans who have seen 1llIl III iClioi o'iN A>A reason, the announcement that Ell will be with New Britain tomorrow is a pleasant one for the fans Of thls |. city to hear.
 If was first in the game against Bridgeport several years back at Hanover park in Meriden that War ner first appeared in the role of foot hall star. Being a tackle which IS one of the most important places on football team, the fans can't al ways see the work that is being done there..
 Warmers spectacular tackling and line nlav in that Bridgeport game was 2 revelation and very few ever saw in college or professional games. a man who played with such zeal and ambition.
 All through his connections with New Britain, it has been the same story. He shone against Harry Stuhldreher last year and it will be q welcome sight to see him in the game again this year. In fact, large number of the boys who were betting on last years game. would not do so until. they found that Warner was to be allowed to play.
 We had wondered during the week just what had caused the Brooklyn Horsemen to disband but news dispatch that we received today ex- plains the situation. It seems that the American and National league both had teams in Brooklyn and New York It Is the Giants and the Yankees in New York while it was the Lions and the Horsemen in Brooklyn.
 'Humbert J. Fugazy. president of the Horsemen, seeing that two teams could get nowhere while one team might prove to be success, decided to amalgamate his team with the National League Lions and this was effected during the past week.
 The two teams have been joined together and will represent Brook lyn in the National league. It will be known as the Brooklion Horse- ? men, combining the names of the two teams.
 The results of the Hartford high Hillhouse high game yesterday in which Hilhouse defeated Hartford 20 to 13, has sent the stock of the New Britain high school football eleven soaring skywards today.
 New Britain beat Hillhouse 19 to 0 last Saturday and those who saw the New Haven team in action are wondering how good Hartford can be when such a seemingly weak team as the New Haven eleven showed itself to be, could step out on the field and beat New Britain's most bitter rival.
 New Britain plays Hartford high next Saturday and the game alone will tell just which team is the better New Britain is out to win this game if the team never won another because of the terrible drubbipg the locals. took at the hands of Hartford last year
 It will be a rip-roaring bunch of gridmen who take the field for Nv Britain against their ancient rivals and Hartford will have to show lot more stuff than 1t did yesterday if it is to have any chance at all.
 The local team has stood bat tering of criticism this year but the players must remember that those who criticize the team do it solely | because they are so deeply interested in the fate of the local eleven The fans of this city who have been fol- | lowing high school sports cannot be blamed for being a bit skeptical of New Britain's chances against Hart ford.
 Last year, the local team was | hailed as q championship eleven, but | if simply went to pieces in the | Hartford game and the result was | that Hartford easily won game l
