New Britain herald., 1928-11-26

Grip:
The cops were even sore yesterday
because in the news items today 1t
appears that three New Britain fans
were arrested At the game for ''in-
terfefing with . peanut vendor"
Uncanny the way the cops picked out
three New Britain men when. as We
saw 1t from the New Britain side Of
the. field. nearly the entire Hartford
delegation Of fans was trying to take
I shot at the New Britain partisans.
Well, there might be something
worse happen that to have New
Britain take two straight games
from Hartford. New Britain might
start out to tell the Hartfordites that
they aren't In the same class with
New Britain but the fans here take
too much enjoyment out Of the sit
uation when New Britain beats Hart
ford to spoil the annual joy-festa.
"Pee-wee" Werwaiss got lot Of
unfavsrabie publicity over nothing at
all yesterday. It was reported that
he was going to sue the Nutmeg
management for money. He alb
solutely refused to play in Sundays
gsme. Sunday came and although
he was few minutes late. pee
wee" came along and got into the
game.
We were we'll repaid for our near
~ frozen feet seeing Politis catch
those two forward passes. We no.
ticed that Judge Bill Mangan II the
stands. celebrated the events with
"whoopee" while Umpire Harry
GinsberE couldn't suppress q chuckls
at the sight Of one Of his proteges
romping almost over for 4 touch
down.
Believe us, Fordham was well rep
resented on the New, Britain team
yesterday. Rautt and Beloin to.
Eether with Politis. will be remem-
bered for some time because Of their
work yesterday. We want to see
them here again II the Nutmess play
some more.
Johnny Grip went to Orange. they
tell US. yesterday. Tom Leary land
ed a nice job playing end for aple-
ten. Tom was remembered from
last season when An-New Britain
r'ayed there and stapleton wanted
him badly this season. He started
Yesterday with the team against the
canton Bulldogs. Incidentally.
staieton won by the score Of - to 0.
New Britain lost by the score of 1.
to o.
The report was made public yes
terday that the New Britain High
school team took advantage Of one
big break" to win the game
against Hartford Public High school.
1t was claimed that Landino clutch
ed the ball out Of the air on a
tumble and ran into the line with
It.
Nothing could be any farther from
the truth. in the first place 1t was
Sowka who finally got the ball and
1t was not on a tumble. Iandino
took q direct pass from center and
threw = lateral pass over the heads
Of two incoming Hartford linemen
and Scwka did the clutching and ran
to Hartford's II yard line.
Looking at the game from the
standpoint OF \ disinterested spec
tator, one cannot help but admit
that the Hardware City team out
played its opponent.
For the first time in many years
Hartford came out with a student
band. The old Philharmonic band
was there representing New Britain. !
Captain Tommy Hayden showed
himself to be a true sportsman in
defeat Immediately after the game
he took the ball from Dobkin who
was tackled In the last play Of the |
game, ran over to Landino and gave
him the ball with the words. Con
eratulations. Louis" A. has eyes
filled with tears he turned and ran
to the Hartford bench.
Albert LOOMS Of Grove Hill re-
Gently received broken finger while !
playing football at LOOMS institute.
This 10 Albert's first year at the
game.
