If by any chance the New Brit ain High school football team is able to defeat the Vermont Academy eleven which comes to this city to play tomorrow afternoon, bets on New Britain's chances against the Hartford Public High school a week from that date may change from n3ds on Hartford to even money.
 Vermont Academy has always en. ioyed a great reputation on the ath- letic field and this year it Is having an unusually good season. Six vic . tories out Of SIX starts is the record and none of these victories were against high school teams. At least four college freshmen teams haze fallen victim to the powerful offense and defense exhibited by the Green Mountain team and one preparatory school has taken the short end of the score.
 Middl ebury freshmen. Norwich university freshmen. Massachusetts Aggies freshmen, Troy Conference academy and Goddard seminary are five victims of the six teams played. It defeated Troy Conference acad- emy, the team New Britain was to play in Vermont tomorrow. by an 61 10 0 score.
 Since Hartford Public High school has an open date on it's schedule this week, 1t is expected that the entire squad and several Hartford scouts will be on hand at the game ready to study the strength and weakness of the New Britain team against strong opposition.
 New Britain High has not been defeated on it's home field for the past two years, but it's chances of keeping up It's good record are not so bright against the opposition it will receive from Vermont and Hartford.
 The following players are expect ed to be ready to take part in the game, although an announcement ot the scholastic standing has not been made: Casale, center; Reckert and kuhs, guards: Nevulis and Ericson, tackles; Scully and Zehrer, ends; Landino, quarterback; Bell and Za- leski, halfbacks, and Sowka, full back.

LOCALS READY TO
 MEET BRIDGEPORT
Al-NeW Britain GridderS Hold
 Final Practice Tonight

The All-New Britain football team
 battle with All-Bridgeport in the
 Park City Sunday afternoon. The final practice for the game will be held tonight rain or shine and the plays and signals will be rehearsed.
 Bridgeport has a greatly strengthen
 that represents this city will be pushed 10 the utmost to take the game.
 Manager Daley in a telephone conversation with Manager Westine of Bridgeport secured the following information for the benefit of New Britain fans who plan to make the trip Sunday. There will be two games staged at Newfeld Park. A preliminary will be played between TWO Bridgeport teams for the city amateur championship. Ths game will be started promptly at 1 o'clock. The game will be finished so that the All-New Britain-All Bridgeport game can be started not later than
 2:A5 o'clock. Admission at NeWtield Park is the same as is charged at Memorial Field in this city
 The officials named for the game
 are as follows: Clyde Waters ot
 Bristol, well known baseball and
 ba asketball referee, will be referee Of
 the football game; 'keck" Parker, local official. will be umpire, and Charles E. Mahoney Of the Bridge port Waterbury Herald will be head linesman.
 New Britain will carry it's full squad of 19 men to Bridgeport. Coach Dave Dunn will most prob
 ably decide on his starting lineup tonight at the practice session. Red" O'Neil will most probably
 start at center. Tom Humphries and Gnasdow will be at guards. Staton and Werwaiss will probably draw the tackle assignments with Blng- ham and Leary at ends. Graham
 will assume his place at quarter
 back with Sturm, Thompson and
 Manning in the backield.
 All the players who received in
 turies in the last few game nave fully recovered. Manning's fingers
 are all right again while Humphrles'
 shoulder nas responded nicely to
 treatment. Zip" Zehrer is the only man who will not be available for
 use in the backtield.
 The appearance of the New Brit ain team in Bridgeport for the frst
 time in six years, has proved to DC
 the sensation of the season for the
 Park City. Sports editors and others
 interested in the game there have predicted that record crowd will be out to see the game. The Bridge
 port management really thinks that the Bridgeport team is going to wln' but New Britain fans who attend
 the game will do 80 prepaUd 10 stake their regulations on the big red eleven from the Hardware Clty.

next.
 The ball carriers job Is simple compared to that of the interference
 leaders duty.
 "The quarterback is the logical
 man to call signals. Since he carries
 the ball he is behind his entire team
 He knows what plays are working
 He alone can tell which men are failing in their duties and which opponents are tackling him. He
 can see what opponents are out of position.
 This is the age of specialization l and the interference leader suited | to that work has no business trying to carry the ball. Some say this gives lecway for no deception. If the quarterback or have all the deception needed. Also. if every man is an expert at his duty on a certain play and com- pletcs his task, I'd be willing 10 let any team know just where we are going. The play would work be- cause of efficiency. After all. spec ialization does not make for in dividual stars, but when co-ordi- mated properly. forms the most com- ! plete teamwork.
 "1 have had some howl to me: Why don't you give that poor ! quarterback rest from carrying the ball?' My answer is always:
 Why not give the poor fellow lead ing interference and taking the iots rcsto'"

Red Rorty, dean of Eastern league umpires and the man re- spon9ible for the revival of roller hockey in this state, will proba bly, be the official for the first game to be played here a tho Stanley Arena on Church street Monday night. AL though Rorty has not yet been as- signed to the New Britain hall for the night. it is practically assured that he will be sent here because his presence will lend an added feature 10 the revival of the sport of sports in this city.
 Manager Frank McDonough has gathered together likely looking team. His outfit already compares tavorably with all the other teams in the league. lie has "Jigger" Higgins for first rush and Jack Mercer for second rush Mercer played roller hockey up to six years ago and he feels that after a short time he will be in shape to continue in the league. Brown will be the New Brit ain center. He has starred at the game for the past 10 years and is q veteran of long experience. Muir head, halfback is another veteran of ability and with Blount. the peer of goal tenders, at the defensive post the Hardware City should be among the top in the American Roller Hockey league.
 President A. w. Keanc of Hart ford has named the officials who will conduct the games throughout the circuit. Billy Lush, former big league baseball star and later Yale baseball coach will be one with "Red" Rorty as another. Si Nc Donald and Albert Kuhn, two East ern baseball league umpires and Eddie Hart of Cheshire will be the other three.
 Wallingford, one of the strongest teams in the league win furnish the opposition for New Britain Monday night. A preliminary game between two amateur teams will be staged The All -Middletown quintet will op- pose the Meriden City champions as a start for the night. Harry Thompson of this city will off1ciatc at the amateur contests. The first game will be started at 8 o'clock sharp.
 The New Britain team will as semble in this city tomorrow night and will hold its first practice Sun day afternoon. The banks and other paraphernalia necessary for the games will be set up Sunday morn ing and everything will be in readi- ness for the opening Of tho league Monday night. Eddie McAlocn, local star, who is utility man on the New Britain team, is in perfect shape for battle In case he is called on Mon day night. It Is pretty certain that Eddie will get an opportunity to ret into the game.

EVEN CHOICE IN
 GAME TOMORROW
Barring of Caldwell Puts Bull-
 dog on Par With Tiger

New York, Nov. il Re-Banish- ment of Bruce Caldwell from the Yale squad has advanced the Bull dog into an equal choice for tomor- rows tussle with Princeton.
 Although the Blue will be with out it's star halfback, reaction fol- lowing several days of suspense over the final disposition of Cald- wells case has keyed the mental frame of Elis warriors to d fever pitch of do or die" spirit.

 Johnny GarNey. who las been in stalled at Caldwell's post, dis tinguishcd himself in the game against Dartmouth and his play was considered even moro brilliant than that of the deposed star. Ham mcrsley will serve as Garycy's relief man.

CALDWELL BARRED
 FROM YALE SQUAD
Athletic Board Of Control SuS-
 tainS Disqualification

New Haven, Conn. Nov. II (UP) barred from Yale football, and the Blue will face Princeton tomorrow without the services of its star half back.
 The last slim chance that Cald- well. declared ineligible, might yet be permitted to play, went aglim- mering last night when the Yale athletic board of control unanimous ly sustained the action of athletic officials who had disqualified the backfield acc.
 'In upholding the ineligibility rul- ing. however, the board apparently left a loophole for invitation by either Princeton or Harvard to abolish the rule under which Cald- well was cut down at the height of his gridiron fame.
 A three hour conference preceded the boards decision. Outside, hun drcds of Yale students awaited the verdict, hopeful that, after all Cald- well might squeeze into tomorrow s lineup.
 Disappointment was general when Professor George H. Nettleton chairman of the board. announced that the ruling of athletic officials had been sustained.
 "The board of control of the Yale University Athletic association deep ly appreciate the generous initiative of both Princeton and Harvard in suggesting that Bruce Caldwell be permitted, if possible, ini their con- ing games with Yale," fhe boards statement said. .,sjt
 Both Harvard and Princeton clearly and courteously recognized that, under our dual agreements final responsibility for determining all questions of eligibility rests with the university concerned.
 Under the existing rules. MT. Caldwell is clearly ineligible to com- pete in football against Princeton and Harvard and it seems equally clear to us that no single university can change the rule themselves.
 After careful consideration our board has accordingly reaffirmed the decision already announced. With like accord our members united in expressing their hearty appreciation of the generous action of Harvard and Princeton and their belief that 1t confirmed and strengthens our mutual friendship and regard"
 An eleventh hour agreement by members of the old Big Three" to abolish the rule in question. today was the only opening through which Caldwell could play in the remain ing games on Yale's schedule.
 Coach William W. Roper of Princeton and William J. Bingham, director of athletics at Harvard, both had appealed to Yale athletic off, cials on Caldwells behalf. There was considerable speculation here today as to whether the Tiger and Crimson authorities would make further advances in an effort to keep the star back in the lineup.
 Caldwell was declared ineligible three days ago after a Providence, K. l. newspaper had disclosed that he once had played freshman foot ball for Brown university.
