Yale appears due to face Prince
ton not only In a playing slump but
In a period OF mental depression that
seems to amount to nothing less than
4 blue funk. New Haven papers yes
terday carried stories to the effect
that Yale lost the Maryland game
because the boys had not been 60
ing to bed of nights as they should.
It seems that fraternity limitations
and other activities have been in full
swing at the university. 30 some OF
the players have been going through
their stunts and others have been
putting them through. with the re-
suit that none of the lads have had
the necessary rest.
Something like this must be true.
for the Yale team was a very sad
looking outfit against Maryland. be-
Ing unable to hold the ball. having
no punch In the attack. and seeming
to lack that all-important essential
courage. II we ever saw a stale
team it was that one.
Coach Nal Stevens Is said to have
requested that fraternity activities be
postponed until after the football
season. but 1t appears that the dam
age has been done for the present
year. Yesterday the second team
played hob with the regulars. who
could not gain consistently and who
collapsed on the defense as we'll.
Stevens has ordered the team out for
scrimmage again today-he had
them working long after dark yester-
day-and he is working feverishly to
restore the zest and morale Of the
team before It meets the strong

Speakins
Of S ports

To followers Of the New Britain
High school football team. it has
been . strange thing that the Yer.
mont Academy officials would not
consent to = postponement Of the
game here Saturday 70 that New
Britain could play Hillhouse Hign
Of New Haven this Saturday in the
game that was 20 unfortunately in
terrupted last week by the death OF
= New Haven player.
However, after a trip to Vermont
by Coach George NJ. Cassidy of THE
High school, he discovered that the
Vermont officials had not been ia
miliar with the facts of the case
When he told them of the season
for the cancellation Of last Satur-
days game with New Haven and
the wish that the game could b.
played this week. the Vermont Of
flcials Immediately capitulated.
Not only did the officials concur
with the local coach. but the men,
bers OF the football team, to whom
q trip to New Britain was one Of
the brightest spots in the season.
Immediately urged the officials to
call OF the Vermont game.
Good craftsmanship OF this sort
can deserve nothing but the high
est OF praise from every single per-
son interested in the matter. Right
ly. the Vermont officials refused TO
call their game here Saturday OF
thinking that it was just a case OF
New Britain trying to dump them.
When the true facts became known.
however, they were anxious and
eager to cooperate.
It is the hope of everyone con-
cerned that Coach Cassidy and the
New Britain High school officials
will do everything in their power to
be foes worthy of the best Of treat
ment.

VOTE ABOUT EVEN 0N STORE HOURS
Saturday Night Closing Year
 Round May Be Killed

That the proposition to close the stores on Saturday nights the year round. is killed is indicated by the fact that votes coming in still show an almost equal division of opinion.
 The figures this morning at inc Chamber of Commerce were report- cd as c5 in favor of the Saturday night closing and eS in favor Of Keeping open. If the statement of one merchant is correct that he made qualified reply to the aues- tionnaire causing his vote to be in the affirmative count, when he actually meant it to be negative. the vote is 24 to 24. Opinion is too even. ly divided for the uniform closing hours committee to recommend a change. it is said.
 There still are enough votes to come in to change the whole eitua. ton. The chamber sent out l35 bal lots, of which but 4s have been re- ceived.

CORNER PARKING
 RULE IS IGNORED
Signs Are Needed to Warn Automobile Owners
MOVE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY
Kensington Nine Playing Manches- ter-Warranty Deeds Filed At Town Clerks Office-ApplicatiOn For Marriage Licensc-Items.

Autoists have been disregardini the warnings issued a month ol more ago by Judge George G. Gris wold and Prosecutor c. F. Levi. against parking automobiles on the corners of the streets in Kensing ton. A bad accident occurred ii front of the kensington post office about month ago and at the tria in the town court. one of the driv. CTS, who was arrested for reckless driving. claimed that car was parked at the corner and blocked his view.
 Judge Griswold issued a warning to autoists stating that they should restrain from parking their cars too close to the corners and urged tile constables to see that his orders were carried out.
 Motorists have been careless in carrying out Judge Griswold's orders and the constables are having a hard time to enforce the ruling be- cause of the lack of signs telling the public that parking is not allowed. When warned by constables they plead ignorance and point to the fact that there are no signs indi- eating the law.
 This is especially true on Main street, kensington, near the corner where the kensingtcn post office is located. Most of the business of the ic fra f-I oA business vehicles and other automo- piles park directly at the corner or within a few feet of the corner, practically making it blind corner. Cars travelling up or down Main street are forced to travel in the middle of the road and have no chance to see if car is approach ing them near the corner.
 It was reported this morning that agitation would be started to have the town install signs at this point prohibiting parking for various dis tances. It is thought that the town will take steps to have these signs installed at once because of the con ditions that have been described 5y Judge Griswold.
 Warranty Deeds
 Two warranty deeds have been fil- ed at the office of the town clerk.
 Louis Lanza has sold to the Goss & DeLeeuw Machine company of Kensington a lot situated south of the present properly of the factory on Harding street.
 Steve F. Labienic has sold to Louis and Mary Kristopik a farm of 57 acres of land situated on the west side of the Kensington road. The farm was formerly owned by Stan- ley w. Gawris.
 To Present Numbers The Berlin Grange will present two numbers this e''ening at the meeting of the East Hartford Grange to be held in that town. All of the local members who are able to be present are urged to attend the meeting which starts at S:3O o'clock.
 To Have Baptizin9 Rites
 The Antioch Pentecostal church of East Berlin will hold baptizing ritual at Weeke's pond. West Crom- we'll. on Sunday August 5. All nembers and candidates will leave
