Is the boy who starred for the Southington Le- zion team in it's games with the To- cal Legion baseball nine. Playing his first game in Plainville uni- form. he did a good job as quarter back and took advantage of the con- tests big break when an opposing back dropped the ball under the im- pact of Captain Roland Gauthier's tackle.
 Coach Caulfield's eleven worked well at straight football. making large gains of tackle through the holes opened up by Wagner, Down. ham. and Buell. and picking up much yardage on end runs. The aerial at- tack was not so strong, neither team completing a pass. Caulfield sent in his whole squad of 20 men, using three pairs of ends. The lineup during the greater part of the game was as follows: Hubbard, re; Wag- ner. Downham. Tt: Prior, rg; H. smith. c: Bloom. lg: Buell.. It; Berry, McGibbon le; A. King. qb; Conlin. rhb; French Barber. lhb: Gauthier, fb.
