Libby Defeats Plains,


Libby played smarter and harder
football last Friday than ever before
on the Plains field to win by score
of 6 to 0.
Libby's versatile attack had the
Plains team baffled constantly. The
only sign of a touchdown by Plains
came in the third quarter when they
completed two forward passes for
total gain Of 45 yards.
Llbby's line held like stone wall
on defense and opened big holes in the
opponents line on offense. This en-
abled the Libby backs to race for
big gains consistently. The only
threat of Plains was their aerial at
tack. This they tried untiringly until
finally Albert Peterson intercepted
long pass and ran through broken
field for 55 yards and touch down.
This was the most spectacular play
Of the entire game, and beautiful
piece Of open field running. Peterson
was well assisted by the interference
of his teammates who left few Plains
men standing.
The score came in the second quar-
ter and the remainder of the game was
played in mid-field. The kick for ex-
ira point went wide.
Lineup and Summary:
Ends, Mccormick, Paulini, Blough;
tackles, Boothman, R. Peterson;
guards, c. Baker, Grambauer; center,
Davidson; quarterback. Albert Peter
son; half backs, Lloyd Baker, Johan-
son; full back, Gaige.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. ga ma
jority OF the 10000 residents of Linz
coin are gazing into the future,
praying that the passions Of man
remain subdued for three more
months so that an extraordinary
record of three years without muir
der may be attained.
already this capital city OF Ne
braska has become sort Of eighth
wonder of the world because there
has been no murders committed
within Lincoln'S boundaries for two
years and nine months.
Knocks On Wood
Aside from a suggestion that the
city may have drawn inspiration
from the pacif1sm of the late VIII
lam Jennings Bryan, its renowned
son, police could not explain the
lack of violence.
I'VE are knocking on wood" was
the reply to requests for informa-
ton as to why residents of Lincoln
refrain from impulses of violence.
Hatchets may be bought in
Lincoln-the same as in Omaha.
Pistols are sold-just as they are in
Chicago, and dynamite may be
procured here as easily as in Kansas
City. The best guess seems to be
that other cities possess killers
while Lincoln does not.

The St. Matthew's German Lutheran and Stanley Memorial churches will not have teams in the league this winter.
 The First Lutheran and South Congregational teams, which be- tween them have shared all four league pennants, again have the strong combinations which swept through all other church opponents last year and found opposition only in each other. Both of the veteran teams. however, have aspirations to step out and play independents games With other church and amateur teams about the state and both have likely looking reserve players com- ing along, so it is more than pos sible that the younger aspirants will see a great deal of action in the league.
 The St. Marks outfit will be com posed of about the same players as last year. but the green combination Of a winter ago now has a seasons S experience behind it and is expected to prove strong outfit. The Swed- ish Bethany quintet will rely on the men who played in 1927-2S and made the team very dangerous one that season.
 The league will play it's games on Wednesday nights at the Y. M. C. A, opening night having been set for November IS. It is still uncertain whether two or three rounds will be | played, but the schedule for the first two will be as follows:

JOE POTTS MAY
 NOT START GAME:
Coach Taking No Chances on
 Injury to Team Captain

Unless Coach George M Cassidy of the New Britain high school foot ball team decides differently between now and Saturday afternoon when the New Britain eleven will play Norwich Free Academy, Captain Joe Potts right guard, will not start the game. Although Captain Potts injury is not serious Coach Cassidy is anxious that an injured finger be not placed in danger
 Captain Potts has not been in the scrimmage this week, Coach Cassidy said. In saving his captain Coach Cassidy feels that an added injury would be a detrim ent to him in the more important games to come and for baseball, another sport in which Joe is a prominent figure.
 It is probable that Jimmy O'Brien or Sargisian, secoad team linemen, will be given the call to start the game. While Potts is out of the lineup Halfback Al Middleton will be acting captain.
 The other players who have been suffering minor injuries, Billy Ross and Alex Zaleski. will be ready for service. The first named player is the regular quarterback and he will start the game Zaleski is the sub stitute quarterback and he may be seen in the game for part of the time.
 A player who has shown a world of stuff in the past week or two Is Ed kloiber. substitute fullback. Ac- cording to Coach Cassidy's statement today kloiber has worked himself into a position where he is on a par with some of the regular backs. The team is now equipped with six good bacttield men. Ross. Middleton. Fink, Carlson, Kloiber and Zaleski.
 At the practice session held yes terday afternoon Coach Cassidy read the riot ate to the players. He told them they were not showing pep since the Bridgeport game and informed them that they had noth- ing to be satisfied about. Bridge port high was a team of mediocre talent and Hartford high school de- read the riot act to the players. He directed few remarks in the di- rection of two men on the line. one a very heavy boy who is being criticized for his indifference by members of the alumni body.
 The team showed a complete re- versal Of form in the scrimmage that followed. During the practice the squad was drilled on. forward passing defense and it did a good iob

Continuing traditional football rivalry that got it's beginning more than 40 years ago when the New Britain and Hartford high school teams met for the first time and picking up the broken thread of bitter enmity that existed between the state championship Nutmeg team of 20 years ago and the lead ing elevens of Hartford, the present. day, red-jerscyed combination sail ing under the colors of the Nutmeg A. C., will make its first invasion Of the Capital City Sunday afternoon when it tackles the strong and po- tential Hartford Giants at Hurley stadium which was formerly the Nelodrome in East Hartford. For the first time in a number Of seasons, the New Britain team is the prime favorte in the game. The Nutmegs have won their first three games played already. They bowled over the New London Ockfords in easy fashion by the score of 40 to 70 and the following Sunday, they
 
 camp by a 13 to o count. This put them in first place in the Eastern Professional Football league. Then, i to add to the laurels already secured. last Sunday they defeated the high ly advertised Newark Bears by a 19 to score.
 The Newark team has been the 1,F "A xJ 1 the local combination This touch- 1 down came when Chmiel. 10 sec ond track man, ran 90 yards from | kickoff 10 cross the locals goal line last Sunday,

Druehl and "Butsy" Sturm who started off the season with the now defunct Hart i ford Senators, have been signed as members of the Giant crew while i Jumbo" Gnasdow, last years guard with the Nutmegs, has also been signed. Werwaiss may also be ! in the game against his former mates 1 Besides these, the team has a stall wart line and a bunch of feet footed backs who should make things interesting for the Hardware i City crew.
 Johnny Grip, flashy quarterback who was out of last Sundays game With broken rib received in the game against the Williams team the week before, will probably be back in action again next Sunday. This will give the local team it's full strength in the backfield with Baut and Buckley at the halves and "Si- lent John" Davis at fullback. Task CT, Belonki and Wolcott will be re- serve men in the ball carrying de- partment.
 The line will be practically the same with the following in line for service: Ends, Politis, Burns and Conley; tackles Scully, Benzuis and Gallagher; guards Humphrey, San dell, Beloin and Wolcott and Joe Rogers or Scully at center.
 A large New Britain delegation of rooters will be on hand to watch the slaughter. The Giants were able only to hold the Williams team to a tie in their opening game last Sun day and there is a distinct feeling in Hartford that this is New Brit ain year. Local fans will be on deck 10 watch the game and Captain Bcloin and his mates will not lack for moral support from the stands. The kickoff is scheduled to take place at 2:30 o'clock.

 New York. Oct. r LHp - When John McGraw gets ready to do his heavy winter trading he may find a surprising number of baseball men ready to do business.
 For the Giants veteran manager has been handing out some very choice players in recent years.
 In fact McGraw has made possible some of the greatest bargains in the history of the game.
 Boston jumped in and grabbed Hornsby for some money and two players-Jimmy Welsh and Shanty Hogan. Within ten months, the Braves picked up around s2OO,0oo in cash and four or five players for the Rajah. Meanwhile Welsh and Hogan proved to be just ordinary ball players.
 Pittsburgh eagerly swapped Vic Aldridge for Burleigh Grimes whom McGraw just as eagerly put on the block, Grimes developed into one of the best Pittsburgh pitchers since the days of Babe Adams. And Aldridge didn't even last one season with the Giants. a-
 Then Philadelphia came forward for it's slice of the McGraw cake by getting Lefty O'Doul in a trade involving Fred Leach. Lefty prompt ly set his sights on the National league batting championship which he copped with the princely aver age of 400 An Leach did no bet ter than play in his usual Philadel- phia style.
 McGraw is looking for pitchers, outfielders and a second baseman this time. He probably will find plenty of takers for whatever he has to offer.
