ALL-AMERICA TEAMS ARE
 PICKED BY FRANK ARATA
Local Football Expert Turns in Novel Suggestion in Choosing Eleven Made Up of Players of Italian Descent - Outstanding Grdiron Performers Are Named in First and Second Combinations tons Are Made From All Parts of Country

New Britain has it's share of close followers of collegiate football and the various teams throughout the country. Many of thel, arc cX- pcrts when it comes to picking the outstanding players in various sec tons of the country who might be chosen for All-America selections.
 We began some time ago search for man who, to those who know him, would he qualified 10 choose an All-America team. After due consideration the happy thought struck us that Frank Arata, one of the closest followers of the gridiron sport in this city. would be one who would make likely selections. Following out the thought, we inter- viewed Frank and aftc7 much per suasion, he finally consented to pick a first and second All-Amcrica team.
 In addition 10 this, Frank made Il novel pick in selecting eleven players of Italian ancestry whom he has placed on an Italian All-AIncri- ca eleven. The choice of men Of one lineage, is so rare and the play CTS arc ~o outstanding on their re- spcctivc teams. that it appears that the choice is not far wrong.
 Tho Italian AIl-Amcrica team is as follows:
 Stromiello, lc .......... Coleatc 'annc ,. lt ..........., Fordham Cordovano, lG ....... Gc~ gctoWn

Albany
New Britain

Earl Pierce, brother of Steve Pierce, roller hockey star in his own right has been signed by Manager Frank McDonough of the New Brit ain team, as running mate for Kid" Williams on the rush line. Pierce will appear with the local combination for the first time to- morrow night. He will play second, rush replacing Jimmy Clinton and. Pete Gasperini who have been all. ternating in the position for the past few games.
 Pierce has had chcokered career around the American league, and has played with various com-. binations. He has always acquitted himself well as q player and his speed should make the New Britain, team an eitrcly different combina-. ton from what it has been. With him and "kid' Williams on the rushline, Griniths at center. Barney, Doherty at halfbaCk and LoVegrcen: in the goal. New Britain appears 10 have team that will compare faN- orably with any other quintet in the league.
 A real holiday attraction will be furnished the fans of this city with. the appearance of the Albany team here tomorrow night. The visiting, delegation with it's fast-stepping' trio of Peregrin- Davies -Harkins on the offensive, is one of the speed, jest outfits to have appeared here this season and plenty of action is in store when New Britains re- organized quintet clashes with them tomorrow night.
 Barney Doherty will also be back Tn the lineup tomorrow night and, this will give New Britain its full defensive strength. Predictions are freely made that New Britain has ended, onco and for all, it's sustained losing streak.
 Tomorrow nights game will be, preceded by preliminary between two amateur teams. The main con-, test will get underway at g odocks

 Marks Quintet Wins First
Junior Church Standing

A fighting Center Congregational church team, rated as :. poor match for the strong First Lutheran quin- tet, gave the SWedes a bad scare in the Junior Church league at the Y. NJ. c. A. last night and actually led by 1l-10 going into the final quar- ter. but then the Lutherans pulled the game from the fire with d be- lated assault and took their first
 victory by 1911. The winners had only five men on hand. but these were among the best players on their squad, and they were figured to triumph by an overwhelminp | score. But the Center church Boy Scouts sprang a surprise and. aid
 cd by the addition of "Clank" Der rick, displayed a much better brand
 Of basketball than they had put up
 the week before, matching the
 Luthcrans point for point almost to the end.
 Hultberg opened the game with
 two field goals and Derrick made
 one, which was all the scoring there
 was in the first quarter. Hultberg
 Bengtson and Hube lifted the tally to 10-4 at the half. In the third quarter the losers made their great effort, holding the Swedes scoreless during the period while they forged ahead. Mainer scored from afie!d and two long shots by Dickinson eVened the count. Then Hube made good a free try and the Center church led, But Hultberg evened the score again in the final period and then he. Benson. and Anderson Tipped in four baskets for a victory. The summary.

NUTMEGS ID PLAY
 WILLIAMS ELEVEN
Bruce Caldwell to Face Local
 Football Team Tomorrow

With Bruce Caldwell, star of the Yale University team for a greater
 part of the season last year, i'll the backGeld. the Williams football team of New Haven will face the Nut megs of this city in a Thanksgiving Day football feature 10 be staged
 at the New Haven Eastern League baseball park tomorrow afternoon. This will be the first battle of a home and home series of games to be played between the two elcvcns as the Williams combination, with
 the same lineup as will play in New Haven tomorrow afternoon, will re- turn here for game with the Nut megs Sunday afternoon. This con- test will be staged at Willow Brook park.
 New Haven is advertising the
 game as the greatest feature of the present season. Caldwell appeared in the Williams lineup last Sunday and. despite a steady rain, more than 2.000 fans watched him per form. He worked in well with his mates but he should be so much better in the game tomorrow.
 New Britain handed two drub-
 pings to the Williams team in the two games played in the Eastern
 Professional league, but with Cald- well and some other players in the lineup. the New Haven management will present vastly different team
 against the Hardware City combi-
 nation tomorrow. The contest will
 be staged in the afternoon. with the
 kickoff scheduled at 2:l o'clock.
 The local team will line up with
 it's strongest offensive machine in
 action. Coach Bob Patterson doesn't
 expect any harder opposition against the New Havencrs than the local
 team met with during the season and the Nutmegs were never in
 danger Of being defeated.
 The advent Of the New Haven
 team here Sunday, with Caldwell in
 it's lineup. should prove 10 he the best attraction of the present sea ! son

 The Stanley Rules 27 to 12 vic. tory over the Corbin Cabinet Lock team was too one-sidcd to be inter- cStlnS. The center and forward combination of Kley. Mercy and Garro had a good offensive night while the baCkCourt combination of Corrazzo, Gill and Zapatka held the Cabinet Lock forwards without d field goal.
 One of the interesting sidelights to the game is that the Cabinet Lock team did not score field goal in the first 20 minut $ of the game, 1t being held in the first half Of ll minutes and for five minutes into the second frame. Like the Fafn1r and Russell x Erwin teams, Cabinet Lock was without one Of it's leading scorers, Phil Walthers.
 Linden, the champion foul shoot CT of New York went into the game and scored one of Cabinets three field goals. He had three chances to shoot fouls and he made two good, one of which was not allowed.

League Standing

Led by Substitute David Beloin who caged four field goals in the final minutes of the last half of a game between the Fafnir and G2sco teams in the Industrial basketball league at the Tabs hall last night, Fafnirs staged q sensational rally, overcamc q fl point lead. tied the score and within fl seconds of the end and won by q 26 to 23 score in an overtime period
 Last year there were no overtime games. This year the first came on the second night of play. In the second game Of the night Stanley Rule defeated Corbin Cabinet Lock by a 27 to 12 score and in the night cap the Russell X Erwin quintet had an easy time defeating P. 6; r. Cor bin, 2l to 6.
 The Eafnlr team was weakened by the loss of Howard Belser who is laid up temporarily with an in jured hand. Coach Rice shifted his lineup several times but the smooth working veteran Gasco team seemed to have the uppr hand and at half time the score was , 10 ,. As the second half opened it appeared that Jim Lynch's outfit was going to breeze through for a victory. The count was 19 to when the Fafnir team began to rally.
 Even after Havlck scored three points on a foul and field goal it apepared safe for the Gascos when Johnny Sheehan scored another two pointer. It began to look worse for the Fafnir team when the Gascos got a fl point lead back again on Johnny Sheehan's field goal The score was g to 2.
 Then while the lafnir defense held the Gascos scorclcss, the of- fense scored Y points to win the game.
 Within two minutes Of the end of the game Havlicl popped one which put his team within two points of a tie and with 40 seconds to go Bcloin made it 23-all. Previous 10 Hav- lick's basket Beloin had scored three field goals in q row.
 The crowd went wild in the over time period. Buchiore was fouled and he made q foul goal and then Gierochowski tossed in field goal which gave his team the three point edge which won the game.
 IL is doubtful If the game would have been lost if the Cascos had kept their regular teal in the line Up. Captain Carl Eestolli. Steve Dudack and Frank Shechan had three fouls each and 1t was decided to remove them from the lineup and try 10 dri-, through with sub stitutes This plan did not work and when the regulars went back in the lineup they could not get started again and ora Of the great est comebacks in the industrial league history occurred.
 Coach Rice ordered Beloin to go in and hold Johnny Shechan who had been he Gascos' high scorer. Beloin. for several years a substi- ute. went q step further by drop ping in the baskets hich resulted in ctory Havick also played well for Fafnirs.
 Johnny Shecian played one Of his greatest games m recent years last night. Besides being a prominent figure in the passwork he played fine offensive game with seven l. Id goals.

JAMES NOLAN BUYS
 THE UHLER BLOCK

Mrs R. T. Denison, formerly Miss Margaret Uhler) on Wednes- day afternoon sold the Uhler Block to James Nolan, proprietor of the Den o'Sweets.
 The Uhler Block is centrally locat- ed and is one of the most desirable business location in the city. For several years the post office has been located on a portion of the ground floor. The Book Nook is also located on the ground floor of the building. For many years a rooming house has been conducted on the second floor.
 Mr Nolan states that the change in ownership will not affect t'se tenants on the lower floor. He thinks it probable that he and Mrs Nolan will conduct the roomi house on the upper floor.
