New Britain herald., 1927-10-21


 the work of three New Britain boys.
 fto"ard Beioin was good at guard and John Grip went big in the back field.
 The New York University back held was hitting the right end hard when It was being taken care of bv substitute. "Toots" Politis the reg ular, was out of the lineup with an injured leg.
 The coach decided to send "Toots" with his lame leg into the game and see if he could stop the march around end. Politis kept the heavy backfield of his opponents in check and his teams defense was greatly strengthened.
 Roger Scully is having a tough ' battle trying to hold his center po- sltion against the efforts Of CIcve- land a new member of the squad.
 ''i' ''" HtdllltF Arena on Church street will be completed within two weeks.
 Members Of the Jew Britain High school squad viii leave for New Ha- Ven tomorrow at 1 o'clock.
 The Herald will have a represen- ar 11n fol "a touch with the office on the results of the game. Anyone interested may get in touch with the Herald through 925 and 926 any tHnc after the first quarter and the results will be given.
 If there will be anybody left in this city tomorrow afternoon it will be because he put his tickets to the laie-Army game in his grey suit and then sent the suit to the clean CTS. About everybody that knows the difference between a punt and Q left tackle will be in New Haven. yelling advice from their Si parking space-if they are lucky enough to get a ticket
 The Yale-Army game has become classic in the art of pigskin pum- | meling which is gradually nearing | the dizzy heights of popularity 1 which have been held for some time {! by the Yale Harvard game Harv- l ards weakened teams during the 1 past few seasons have taken much | interest from the clash between the l Blue and Crimson and given a large | part of it to the Mule Bulldog game. l
 We heard a prediction the other day to the effect that Wesleyan 1 would make new record this year by going through the entire season i without a win. This seems alto 1 gether probable with glance at the 1 remaining games to be played by the Red and Black. Coach Bill . Woods charges have yet to show !, any winning form.
 Plainvile high school has put out i a football team this year which ; shows marked improvement over last years team. the second aggre- Sation to wear the Plainville colors. We freely predict that in some not too distant day Trumbull towns high school squad will work it's way up towards the top of the ladder. With an average Of S5 per cent of | the students at the high school 1 turning out for the squad, Plain- vile has shown spirit which can not help but bring future teams into the edge of the limelight
 The Berlin Panthers, q newly or ganiZed squad, has already obtained the attention of other 1G0-pound squads in this section. Although !! losing it's opening game to the Plain- vile Blues at a to 0 score, the Partners showed a strong line and !, a will to win This team was large ly organized from inexperienced youngsters and hands made cal loused by the blow and harrow are being drilled at the art of handling the oval by Coaches George Dalbey and Vernon Read, two ex's with en- viab<c records.
 In broadening the scope of ob servationS to the entire country if is generally believed that Notre Dame. minus several of its famous Four Horsemen will hang up a shining mark this season. After beating much vaunted Navy team in Balti- more last week with a smooth ex- hlbition of we'll drilled gridiron science, dopesters are picking the Indiana University to take them all and spare none.
 Another record will have to be upheld by the New Britain High : school team when it plays the Hill house High school team of Meriden this afternoon. It must keep up Il football winning streak Of 10 games which has extended over last year and this year and it must uphold New Britain Highs record for the past two years of winning 16 out of I7 football games. The only loss the New Britain team has suffered in the games : played in 1925, 1926 and 1927 was one suffered at the hands of Hart ford Public High school team in the last game of 1924 when the team had gone through the entire season without a defeat only to take the : short end Of a onc-sidcd game with Hartford High. 1T the records Of 1924. 1925, 1926 and 1927 football seasons are con
