He slowed up and pulled over to the right side to avoid striking cars travelling ;n the opposite dirkction, and suddenly the two boys stepped from behind q car that passed, going towards this city and were struck by the Alex ander car, which the driver, report ed, was then travelling about 5 miles an hour.
 Both boys were able to grasp the bumper They were dragged about 20 feet, but Alexander did not know this. He believed that he had run over bothtand perhaps killed them. He stopped the car and looked back and not seeing the boys anywhere, almost tainted
 As Alexander left the car the boys crawled from, their positions and walked to the side of the road. De- spite their pleas of not being injur- ed, Alexander took the boys to the New Britain General hospital as quickly as he could drive there, and called his family doctor, Dr. John Purney, who found that the younger boy had a bump on one side of his head and the other bruises on one foot. The boys were then taken to their home by Alexander.

a defeat although In the last five
games the "Yellows" threatened con-

The "Yellows' played Sundays

change could not overcome the &C

The end OF the game furnished the
most amusing incident OF the series.
Captain Maxwell dismounted to re-
cover a stirrup and accidently drop

IN running through the line OF cars
along the field and TO the stables.
The referee learning that there was
but little time remaining and see
