ALL-NEW BRITAIN
 IS HOME SUNDAY
Tackles Adams Eleven From
 Bay State

The All-New Britain football team which came out of the losing battle with Red" Grange and his New York Yankees, with much glory. last Sunday, will be back on the home greensward at Willow Brook park, Sunday afternoon, opposing the strong Adams, Mass, club. Forced to quick action by the running out" of the Stapleton, s. l., team at the last moment, Manager Daley kept the wires burning this evening to get the attraction.
 The Adams team has played in this city on two occasions, losing in 1924. 30, due to fine kick from the field by Johnny Landers, while in 1925, the home team "by the skin of their teeth" nosed out q win, TO. The Bay Staters have, according to Manager Champion, the best team in recent years. In three games played so far his season, the club has rolled up 82 points against six. The Adams club just now is in the lead by a wide margin for the championship of Western Massachusetts.
 The team was out for practice last evening at the state armory, all of the men who worked against the Yankees reporting. Big Boy" Don- Ian, the locals spectacular tackle, who was slightly injured, was on hand, he having entirely recovered. Donlan will start the game at his regular position alongside of Jun bo" Gnasdow, the Berlin boy, who has won the first call on guard over Manfeldt. Coach Hayes went over the game at Clarkin Field, Sunday, pointing out the defects that showed up. The locals learned a few tricks in the game against Grange ct al
 The rattle Of the old can, was heard last evening at the armory, when Manager Daley let Adams. Andrews and Golden go, By this change 1t is expected that Red" Stuedtner, the Meridcn boy, will get iilOiS Ol d IIltuCt lO lldy llldn ne has in the past. There are many who disagree with the methods of Coach Hayes in keeping Stuedtner on the bench, and using untried players in- stead. The change will also give Happy" Griswold Q better call for an opportunity 10 do his stuff" The big boy from Francis street, came through in splendid shape last Sun day, when he was called upon 10 get into the game, when Davis was hurt.
 Thompson. the flashy quarterback will again be with the All-New Brit Iains next Sunday. This will place Hunt, Sturm and Captain Eddie Bar nikow in the backfield. It is ex- pected that a big crowd will turn out to welcome Barney" and Don Ian, back on the home field.

LEGION TEAM AGAIN
 TO GRACE THE COURT
Coach Harry Ginsburg Planning to Send same Linc-Tp After
 City Title This Year as Last.

Basketball fans in the city may be assured that for a second sea- son there will be two basketball teams in the field this year as the result of an announcement made by Coach Harry Ginsburg of last years American Legion team that the team will again organize, but whether or not it will play under its former name is not known.
 The team is practically the same as that which represented P. X r. Corbin in the factory league last year and won the Industrial league title. The Legion team last year lined up as follows; Holst. center; Belser, Jasper and Luke, forwards; Arbour, Niborg, Corazzo, guards. With the exception of Belser, who is now in Fordham, the team will be the same this year. Paris, who was injured last year, will again be in the lineup. Clarence Coons, manager of last years team, will again hold that honor
 Although Belser was named in last nights Herald as a member of the National Guard team, he was really g member of the Legion team, having played only q few games with the guards. He was in every game with the Legion team.
 Coach Ginsburg said 1t was a bit too early to announce anything other than that there will be a team this year. Other announce ments are expected within a few weeks.

is shuffling back to his old job fast CT than he shuffled away from 1t some months ago. It seems to be a case of too many shuffles for Shuf- fe.
 After tuning his pile driving fists on a bunch of lesser lights. Shuffle decided to step into real society by meeting Tommy Freeman, crack Cleveland welterweight That was last spring, When Freeman finished with Shuttle the latter was pretty close to the hospital
 The other night Shuffle sought pretty good game again, meeting the dethroned Mickey Walker. When the Mick got busy there was nothing to it, however. Shuffle had enough in less than five rounds. Shuffle found the big cards were shuffled against him. Now he'll probably shuffle back to his truck driving pastime.

Geneva College Home
 Town Is All Excited

Beaver Falls, Pa, Oct. II Hl- This little town. home of Geneva college, bids fair to reach dizzy heights in the realm of football.
 The college football team, which recently upset Harvard, may sched- ule games next year with Illinois, Notre Dame and Syracuse, besides contemplated battles with Harvard and Boston college. Graduate Man. ager A. c. Edgecombe said that while no definite step had been talk en to pit the team against such for nlidable foes, an attempt would be made to book them on the 1927 schedule.
 The Covenanters may lock horns in Texas or California, Christmas or New Years day in an inter-scctional game, Edgecombe declared. Coach "Bo" McMillan, of Centre college fame, is of the opinion that the con- test can be arranged.

Iowa and Illinois Grid Stars Looming in Vest ern Conference - Each Is Flashy and Fast-Big Ten Elevens Hold Secret Practice.

Chicago, Oct fl. GP>-The foot. 1925 football echoed to-day in the lull before Saturdays opening en. counters in the battle for the west ern conference title.
 Bob Zuppke's stadium at Illinois, where Iowa meets the Illini before a Homecoming crowd. was the mec- ca for a midwest looking for an- other grange.
 Two figures stood out against the backgrounds of the renewal of Iowa. Illinois warfare and its promise of a duel between the two most touted successors to the glory that was Reds. They were Cowboy" Kutsch, Iowa back, and Frosty" Peters, Zuppke's own bid for the place left vacant when his famous protege traded his v jersey for diploma.
 Peters, playing his first year of intercollegiate football, has led the Illini's offense and drop-kicked his way into favoritism. He is a shifty, pace-changing backfeld runner. Kutsch Is crushing charger, prob- ably at his best when threading a broken scrimmage line. He played football last fall that brought men, ton as a grange rival then.
 The game at Urbana probably rates first place among the Big Ten contests, involving all but two of the universities in titular conflict.
 Chicago, entraining to-day for Philadelphia with a somewhat bat tered squad, meets Pennsylvania for the sixth time since 1898, and Ohio State, in fine trim and seeking to repeat last years performance, en- gages Columbia at New York city.
 Barred stadium gates were in gen. eral favor throughout the Big Ten confines today as coaches tapered off weeks strenuous work for the quartet of games, Purdue and Wis consin at Madison; Minnesota and Michigan at Minneapolis, and 1ndi- ana and northwestern at Evanston. knute Rockne added final touches to the offerse his team will use against Penn State at South Bend in game of conference interest, although No- tre Dame is not a Big Ten school.

 Talk About the Fighters
(By the Associated Press)

Jack Sharkey, sensational young Boston heavyweight who whipped Harry Wills to a frazzle for 12 and 43-180ths rounds and then won on a foul, sobbed In his corner when the fight was over. T didn't want to win that way" he cried. A few seconds later a smile broke through the tears as he visioned the rewards in gold and glory headed his way.
 The pot Is boiling already for the boys gathered around the winter stove league. Round Wilbur Robin son, duke of the Flatbush Robins, Is preparing to toss the one and only Dazzy Vance at John McGraw in exchange for Frankie Frisch, the Fordham Flash, who second bases for New York. The master minds reaction to the offer, if 1t has been made, Is not known for his days are said to be filled with efforts to get Eddie Rousch from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for the self-same Frankie.
 Forty four of 4S states are repre- sented on Knute Rockne's grand squad of numberless elevens. There is a Flanagan and McManncn, to be sure, but also Voedech, Marelli, Boeringer, Parisien, Dahlmen, and so forth.

 Is Jack Sharkey afraid of Gene Tunney? Now get me that leather neck" he demanded after conquer ing Wills. "A sailor can beat Marine every day in the week."
 Thanks for getting that fellow out of the way. You did everybody Q wonderful favor," was the way Billy Gibson, Gene's manager greeted the ex-tar in the dressing room.
 If you want football letter at Dartmouth this year you must play against either Cornell or Brown among other requirements.
