 Game Nelt Sunday

The local team will succeed tho Ali-New Brit. ain team of last season and will rep resent this city in the state football league If such circuit is formed.
 The New Britain clan is all set for the invasion. Realizing that for a first game the gtonewalls arc . for midable opponent for any eleven, the management of the Hardware City crew feels confident that . vic- tory will reward their efforts in the first battle of the football campaign.
 The visitors have | strong assem- bly, of grid stars. In sending his line. up to Manager Henry zehrer. Man. ager Sam Dansereau of the Helyoks aggregation gives the local man an inkling of the strength of his team
 For ends he has Cohen. Desser Pier and Eller. For center he haa Larrivier and Hurlban. For guards he has Lunadini. Sampson. Char tellte and Sandis. His tackles are Basg. White. Wynn. Cote and Capis- trani. Nis backheld is made up of the following: Mcdonnell. Parseni, McNulty and cosepe. quarterbacks: Maher, Brady. Mercier. Murphy and I.aFontaine as half backs, and w. Filler and Snyder as fullbacks.
 The locals are shaping up for the game Sunday. In the practice ses- sions held recently under the dtrec- ton of Coach Grat o'connell. the team looked almost the same as 1t was last year. On offense and de- fense it should be strong combine ton.
 Although the starting lineup has not been given as yet, 1t is probably that O'Connell and conley will be at the ends; Werwaiss and Conklin will play tackle: Humphreys and 0nas- dow will be at guards with Captain Red" O'Neil It center. Pigeon Conley may play quarter back with Radsewick and Buckley at the halves and Davis and Griswold at full.
