Cassidy of the New Britain nlgh Ji school football team, offering the squad a free thcater party next L week if the team beats Hartford high tomorrow.
 The team will be the guests of the j. Strand management at the showing ', of 'The Forward Pass" a timely J picture, the first outdoor football al-talkic to come to this city. The picture opens next Thursday. q This offer, added 10 the long list T. of others which have been offered | 10 the team. provided a victory is scored over Hartford tomorrow, leaves only the offer of free Turkish ' baths on the missing list. l \ victory over Hartford will give d the players free shines free hat cleaning, free haircuts and slaves free dances vcnison dinner, q l theatcr party and their pictures in | inc newspapers. If anyone fails 10 ] call this moral support, he is far and away off his trolley.
 Although negotiations for the Blues Pawnec football game were completely cut off last night when thc PaWncos absolutely refused 70 play a preliminary game at Willow Brook park Sunday, the latest word we received this morning was to the effect that the break is being patch cd up, and the teams, after all will play.
 Conferences were being held all this morning with regard to the game and the controversy was aI- most altogether smoothed out. Th" |. Blues, of course, hold the upper . hand because they have the right 'o the field. Tho FaWnoos hold the po- . sition Of a visiting team. Had the . Pawnees held fast to their decision | not 10 play Sunday, the Blues would have, if possible, secured another opponent.
 We have no comment to mako about the slants on the situation taken by either team. We do know that good portion of the football fans Of this city arc pleased to know that the NutmcGs arc to play "t homo this coming Sunday. A double attraction. with two championship games on tho program. is no mean football dish for one afternoon.
 TO us. there comes q feeling of satisfaction to think that the two local teams arc able to patch up thoir difficulties. What matter if they play a preliminary game? The decision will be the same and the winner will take the spells. includ- ing the ca per cent of,thc financial offer of Manager Bernie conlcy. while tho loser will get 40 per cent and inc satisfaction that they put mp a great battle.
 Ovrrshadowing all other sporting events. including the question of whether Albic Booth will play with Yale against Harvard. is the battle, Inc annual football classic. between Hartford and New Britain hlEh / schools tomorrow.
 Madly cheering thousands will be on hand as is usual at matches be- tween Hartford and New Britain and the same colorful scenes Wer" Q bc enacted tomorrow. Partisan fans on both sides have already picked the winner.
 Large numbers of the aiunui a." are criticisiuG Coach George N Cas- Sidy for the selection of A. w.. Kcanc of Hartford, as the referee in the game tomorrow. They claim that he, in his position as sports editor ou 'a Hartford newspaper, will not be- in q position to give impartial decisions regarding the plays as they happen.
 Hartford will have two officials in the list setcctcd for the contest, while Now Britain will be without representation. they say. kcanc an ] Muligau, according to report, are both Hartford men. They favor the selection of officials from q neutral territory.
 These assertions by members ot the alumni body are not mace as T question of the integrity of the off cals, but they feel that in a clo.C play. where decision must be madl on q hairline, that a Hartford maf will he inclined 10 lean towards thu Representative eleven of his city However. the selection has already been made.
 One look at the injured eye o Arthur (Kid) Williams last night made one wonder how he ever wa able to sec the ball as it rolled D. the floor He admitted that for th' most part of the night, his yisiOl was blurred. Despite this, William played a great game in the battl with the Providence roller hock" club.
 As far as we know last night Wal inc first time in which there Wa
 no score ll tNo btl iouH Ut Po'~ The same thing might have happen ed in the old days but in moder
 times, this sets q record for the loca playing rink.
 The polo crowds havnt Startc coming yet. Dissatisfaction mus exist somewhere. Mary or the 0l
