 Plainville High Wins
 After trailing by to 2 score in it's game yesterday afternoon at Litchfield with the Litchfield High eleven, the Plainville High school football team staged a great come back in the final period and scored two touChdowns to register a 15 to 6 victory. It was a wonderful win for the locals and wiped out the stain of the scoreless tie played by the two teams earlier in the season.
 The game was hard fought throughout, due to the intense ri- valry between the two schools. The teams battled on almost even terms in the first half. In the second halc the locals suddenly came to life and ripped through the Litch1eld line for long gains. Buck" Hallback was the hero of Plainville's victory, crashing through for long gains time after time. The Litchfiell men were unable 10 bring Hallback to the ground before he had gained valuable yardage.
 Hallback, together with Hubbard, led the locals offensive in the sec ond half. The entire Plainville team played an inspired game and literally swept the home team off its feet. The victory was hailed with great delight here upon the return of the team.
 The game marked the locals first win of the season. The next game on the schedule is with Simsbury.
