Three gridiron stars who will fin
ish their college football careers
Saturday afternoon, will be seen In
action with the Nutmeg A. c. foot
ball team of this city against the
Hartford Giants in the third and de-
Gliding game OF the series for the
state pro championship at the East
Hartford Nelodrome tomorrow aft
ernoon. The trio OF stars added to
the roster of the Hardware City
eleven are ''Toots" Politis. ''Tubby"
Beloin and Doc" Bautt.
Politis is an end whose ability to
snare forward passes has made him
one OF the sensations of the present
collegiate season. Beloin is a guard
who is one Of the outstanding candi-
dates of the year for a place on tho
All-America line. Both of these boys
are products Of New Britain and in
playing in the championship contest
against the Hartford team, they arc
making their first appearance in
four years before their home town
fans.
The third member of the trio is a
backfield ace. He is triple threat
man and a bulwark of strength on
the defense. In a season in which
Fordham suffered a series OF ignobls
| reverses, the play Of Doc" Bautt
has been the shining light of
the team. He kicks, passes and runs
| to perfection and after practicing
with the New Britain team twice.
he will be totally familiar with the
plays and with the workings of the
backfield mates he will be thrown
in with.
With Bautt will be a former run
ming mate. Ralph Buckley who also
starred at Fordham. Bautt played
four years at the university = and
Buckley was last year. one OF his
running mates. silent JOHN Davis
will complete the backfield combine
and on this trio the New Britain
club will depend. The team will.
again be directed by Vic Radzewich
at quarterback. Vic had an off day
last Sunday but he has shaken off
the jinx.
| The rest Of the team is in excel
lent shape for hard battle. Conk-
lin has fully recovered from his in
iuries and he will take his post at
tackle with Werwaiss as his mate.
Humphreys and Gnasdow will play
the guards with Beloin ready to step
! in. Red" O'Neil and Joe Rogers will
alternate at center. Burns. former
Nillanova wingman and Politis will
pair UP on the ends giving New Brit
ain a pair Of outside men compar-
able to the great pair on the Giant
team.

New Britain team and two on the

first appearance in the Industria,
Basketball league last night and
they made a neat appearance in

the team had not taken part in

ception Of coaching by Jimmy Rey-
nolds during the past few weeks
they went on the floor with no ac-
'tual experience. They lost to Cor
bin Screw, - to 10.
Despite this fact the team did re-
markably well and scored more
points than any other girls team
did in its first appearance. Several
members of the team, especially
Helen Rennock, Gloria Derry and
Mary Martmartick, are Corners.
Corbin Screw has shown . big
improvement since last year and its
forward combination of Mary Wa
licki and Mary Hudak is better thaa
ever. Mary Walicki has a wonder
full eye for the basket. In the first
two minutes of play she scored four
field goals.
She made one Is seconds after
the game started: one at the min
ute and Is second mark, one Is
seconds later and one half a
minute later. Throughout the game
she made Ave field goals. The Screw
Shop center and forwards scored all
the teams points. Mary Bartmar-
tick and Helen Rennock were the
stars Of the North g. Judd team.
The defensive play OF Valeria Slysz
Of the Screw Shop quintet was cas-
lily the best displayed in the game.
