 Reports from Dartmouth speak very highly of the work of "Gav" bromberg, former New Britain high schooi star, who is playing at guard for the Green.
 Bromberg is a deadly tackler and paVes numerous holes for his backs. eStelday in practice, the second team concentrated it's attack on Brombere. but soon gave up as the local boy stopped them dead time after time.

 Little is known of the strength of tho visitors this season, although reports from the Bay state indicate that the team is not as strong as last year.
 The work of the locals last Satur- day against Bridgeport Central high Impressed the Red and Gold rooters. However, New Britain has one of its har lest sChedulecs in years and will have to give its all in every game to keep its record clean.
 Hartford high also appears to have strong aggregation this sea- son. The Blue and White eleven has scored wins over Crosby high and Greenfield high.
 Saturday the Hartford eleven meets the Central high of Bridgeport which fell before the locals last week. Local fans feel that Bridge port will not be in condition because of the hard battle here with the Red and Gold team.
 The Herald playograph, giving play by play of the Cub-Athletic game yesterday, was watched by crowd of over a thousand. Bigger crowds are expected daily as the series goes on.
 The two teams meet again today and rest tomorrow. The series will open up in Philadelphia on Friday. Local fans, judging from the cheer ing on Church street yesterday. are strongly in favor of Connie Mack's team.
 Baseball fans were literally stun ned yesterday when Mack started Ehmke in the box. The old fox out generated Joe Mccarthy and the country is now willing to admit that championship.
 After yesterdays surprise, fans are more than willing to admit that Jack" Quinn, the old-time slow ball twirler, may get the call today.
 The Athletic players went wild after the game yesterday and al- most pounded Ehmke to death in the club house. Ehmke seemed to be more worried over the fact that he had not got the last ball than whether he had broken the worlds record for strikeouts in a worlds series.
 He did not smile until one of the Athletic players tossed him that ball that retired Tolson, Cub pinchhitter or strikes. Connie Mack did not SO into the club house after the game but went immediately to his hotel.
 He expressed himself as being well pleased with Ehmke's pitching but declined to state who his pitch ing choice would be today. McCar- thy stated that Pat" Malone would get the call from the Cubs.
