If the Bristol Endecs collect the quintet which represented the fac. tory last year, Manager Lanphel
 Will have to have a combination fal better than last years team to beat it.
 Whether the addition of Conroy Foley and McElwain to the New Britain team will make the differ ence is a matter which will be set tied when the teams meet during .he coming season.
 Coach Cassidy gives credit to the old Emerald basketball team for Gay Bromberg's rise to the point where he is given consideration for All-America football honors.
 Here's how he explains it: The manager of the Emerald team came to Coach Cassidy and asked if the team could practice in the high school gymnasium, Cassidy allowed the team the use of the floor and coached 1t. This gave Bromherg the idea that he would like to play with ,hc New Britain high school team. Later he played baseball and foot nall and thus received enough schol- 9stic experience to make the show 'nG in college.
 It Is Coach Cassidy's opinion that Hrombcrg, who has played under 1im in football, basketball and base oall, is better in baseball than in 'ootball.
 Before Brom berg left for Dart mouth, Coach Cassidy said he would make the All-Amcrica team and would also be Phi Beta Kappa man.
 We must give the city of Hart ford credit for it's willingness to for give. After all Brombcrg did to the cause of the Blue and White Hart ford Public High school team when he blocked q punt and scored a touchdown against the Capital City team in 1926, Hartford now claims him as one of it's own.
 Head Chccr-leader Bob Hayes is to organize a cheering sec ton at the Stamford high school game which will rival that which is heard at the annual Hartford New Britain games.
 Coach George NJ. Cassidy will not any attraction for the Sat turdaY before the Hartford Public high school game. He feels that the team would benefit by the week of rest after the two hard games against Stamford this Saturday and Bulkclcy high school of Hartford a week from Saturday.
 All members of the first team of he New Britain night school and it's first backfcld and line substitutes were at the practice session yestcr- day afternoon.
 That the spirit which prevails on he New Britain Nutmeg team is higher this year than at any other ime' in the history of professional 'ootball in this city may be glcaned rom the fact that Roger Scully re- used a flattoring offer from a New York professional team to play with { next Sunday.
 Roger would sooner play here where his home town fans are on land and where the boys with whom lc played at Fordham are located. There are five other Fordhamites on he team.
 Buddy" Howard won decidedly unpopular decision over Jack Kelly ast night in New Haven. In the iXth round he took q terrible past ng and finally was floored for d ount of nine. Then he managed to get to his fcct-somc say the referee lclped him arisc-and staggered trough the rest of the fight, And lc got the decision.
 It was Charley PilkinGton's first efcrccing job and 1t may be his last, or it took a police escort 10 get i'm out of the ring after he had warded the fight to Howard Pilk- | ngton says that Howard won the l ccison by a single point.
 Howard showed last night that he l ould not take it, and those who saw | he fight are agreed that he had | ettcr quit the ring while his record 1 , still crcdit0ble.
 Coach Calvin of Trinity used tao | cs last Saturday which were rem | lisccnt of the day when Tad | ones let Maryland romp over Yale'q | econd team while the regulars sat . l the stands. Trinity took a shcl- | tckinG from Hamilton but at no me had it's regular team in the ame as a unit. The idea, as in ones case, was to save the varsity pr the big game.
