piAysd asainst New Britain in Hart.
ferd. last night We sort Of mixed
everybody up On the question.
What We meant to answer was
the question Of whether the -Four
Horseinen ever played ~ 4 unit
against New Britain Or not. What
We did say WAS taken to mean that
The quartet never played together
in the Capital City. The famous
Notre Dame backfield Of 1895 did
not play against New Britain dur
ing the 1895 season but It did get
together 10 play one game In Hart
ford.
The four Of them. Stuhldreher.
Miller. Layden and Crowley. gath.
cred together either the first or the
second sunday In December OF the
same year against the Cleveland
Bulldogs and lost by the score Of
I to 0. Almost ut the beginning OF
the game. Layden was taken out be-
cause OF bad knee. This was the
only time the ''Four Horsemen"
played together in this state.
Our reference last night was
made with regard to the series OF
games played between New Britain
and MulliSan's Blues, not for the
entire season. We hope this will CT.
plain the matter.
The Nutmeg A. c. 10 probably
done for ths season. After last sun.
days game, it doesn't appear to be
very probable that tho team will
play again next Sunday. Although
the weather keeps warm enough. II
is 4 gamble and It ID also a gamble
with the number Of fanA who might
attend the contest.
Manager Henry Zehrer hasn't
made any announcement yet ~ to
his plans for the team. but it is ex.
pected that he will decide either
today or tomorrow.
As We predicted. there will be no
game between the NutmeSs and the
Providence Steam Rollers. The
Providence team last Sunday closed
out ito season ana does not intend
TO play any more games this year.
It's lust as we'll because. we think,
the Steam Rollers were out Of New
Britain's class.
Some classy bowling was done
last night at Rogers Recreation Al
ieya Two records in the Fafnir
league were shattered. Robertson
broke high single when he toppIe.l
The pins for q score Of 1852 while
Iucchf smashed the high three
string mark with 1873. III and 1875
for total of 40k.
. Pepin made strong bid for high
single when he smashed the tim
hers for 4 score Of $50. He failed
by two pins Of equalling Robertson's
mark of 1852.
No Industrial league basketball
games are scheduled for tonight.
Games are played every second
Tuesday at the Stanley Arena.
The games Friday night at the
Tabs hall should be corkers. P. &
j.. Corbin and its arch rival, Corbin
SCREW, will meet. and Fafnir Bear
ing and the Stanley Rule will fight
it out In the final game of the night.
North 4 Judd and p. & r. Corbin
girls will furnish the attraction in
the first game.

1ttics now with regular high
school spirit-cheers. cheer leaders.
