With the approach of the World Series giving the baseball world an expectancy of excitement, the ap- proach of the game between the Stamford Gas X Electric Co. base- ball team and the P. &5 F. Corbin club of this city Saturday to decide the State Industrial League cham- pionship, is beginning to warm up New Britain baseball fans who have been following the games at Walnut Hill park this year.
 Stamford won through to the fi- nals through a list of opponents in the southern section of the state while the P. & F. Corbin team has defeated two teams. Hartford and Torrngton to earn the right to meet Stamford in the finals.
 This is the closest that any local team has drawn to the state title in many seasons of Industrial League play. In other years, local combina- tions have been eliminated early in the race. P. & F. Corbin furnishes the best balanced club to represent this city in some time and its ability has been borne out by the fact that it won through to the state finals.
 While Stamford is absolutely con- fident of winning over the Corbin team and the Corbin team is just as confident that it will be on the victorious side Saturday, both teams will present classy combinations OH the field Stamford, especially is equipped with a strong defensive or- ganization while it boasts plenty of capable hitters who will be counted on to furnish plenty of trouble for local pitchers.
 On the other hand, the Corbin team has a defense that is we'll known to local fans and its hitters have earned the name locally of the "murderers row. patterned after the famous New York Yankees of several seasons ago.
 The local team will be out for several practice sessions this week in preparation for the game.
 The contest will be staged at Walnut Hill park at 3:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The time of the game has been set back half hour because of the distance the Stam- ford team will have to travel and also because the P. & F. Corbin or ganization is holding an outing at Lake Compounce on Saturday. Probably the largest crowd of the year will be out to see the battle. Eddie Crowley will be the New Britt ain umpire.

HIGH SCHOOL SQUAD IN STIFF PRACTICE
First and Second Teams Put
 Through Hard Workout

A hard fought scrimmage of the High school squad marked the re- turn to football practice after q four-day lay-off. During the first part of the practice Coach Cassidy drilled the candidates in the funda- nlentals of football explaining sim pie plays and formations. After this the coach selected two teams, in structing the second team to kick off.
 Receiving the ball the first team marched steadily up the field. al- ternating it's attack from tackle plays to occasional end runs. Richie Fink was the star of the attack, breaking away frequently for long runs before being tackled by the safety man. The touchdown came when Eddie Milewski crashed over the line with a terrific line plunge. The first team then kicked off to the second team, which carried the ball on to a touchdown much in the same fashion. Sam Mirliani was in the fight all the time for team num- Der two. Dan Wosilus got away for one brilliant run. and when a weak ness was discovered in the first teams defense against passes the i seconds cut loose with barraga that usually went from Flood to i Grammit or Miriliani. Milewski looks at present like a certain bet for starting at fullback next Saturday. Fast and shifty, he fights all the way.
 Injuries continue to mar prac- tices and "Beansy" Wiehn receive J serious wrench of the knee dur ing the scrimmage yesterday. It was necessary to carry him off the field. Jack Whites hand was the object of somebody's shoe during one play. Milewski was the recipi- ent of hefty buffet about the head in the last~play of the scrimmage. This is not expected to have serious consequences, however. Dr. Joseph H. Potts attended the injured play CTS in the dressing room after the practice.
 The lineups were as follows:

MILLS SPREADS
GOOD WILL
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON
Gradually it becomes more evi-
dent that Georgetown University
authorities moved wisely In land
ing Tommy Mills as athletic d.
rector and head football coach.
Mills is spreading football good
will here in addressing the vart.
Gus college gatherings and u
proving to be a real football
missionary.
Speaking at the SoNtheasteru
University dinner Saturday night
he left an impression that viii re-
act favorably for Georgetown.
Mills was addressing group
| with a vague idea as to the rela-
ton of college sports to the in
stitution and the benefits the
athlete himself receives. The new
Georgetown athletic director spoke
straight from the shoulder with
q sincerity that gained the I'd.
miration Of his listeners.
Let me tell you that the col
lege athlete battles for an ide4
plainly" said Mills. 1--WE been an
athlete myself and then o coach,
and I have been connected with
college sports for many years.
'T wish . few Of you could
be in the dressing room be-
fore . game. You could then
share their emotions and
understand the high ideals
that spur them on to greater
things.
"They 60 out on the field to
fight for their school and make
the highest type of men after
graduation. It Is the lesson
learned in college sports that
fits them for life's greater bat
ties"
Mills statements opened the
eyes Of the men who had heard
of college sports but never knew
what went on behind the cur
tains. They each shook his hand
and warmly thanked him for his
talk.
you certainly opened my eyes
to what q college athlete repre-

And Mills personality reached
to the fair sex. The girls present

b. KIRK MILLER~

Well, sir, the old wheeze that
you can't keep good man down
has been again established In
boxing, and in this particular
case it strikes real close to
home.
Now take Terry O'Day, Wash
ington boxer, who has been per-
forming largely in the tropics
here of late and who, q short
time ago. we informed you, was
in Porto Rico and under the
official wing Of Governor Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
At that time Terry was box
ing at the governors palace a
couple of times a week, helping
keep the distinguished son Of
q distinguished deceased PreSi-
dent in the customary Roose-
velt athletic condition.
Such a hit has Terry made
with his fighting down yonder
that he has been borrowed
from Governor Roosevelt by
the son Of the President Of
Venezuela for the purpose Of
introducing and fostering the
manly art Of self defense in the
little independent nation to
the south.
Terry writes that the vene-
zuelans, like t he little brown
skinned natives Of Porto Rico,
are wild about the square ring
and that he is getting every as
sistance in the world establish
ing the sport around Caracas
where he has been installed In
an hycienda on the Presidents
private preserve ...
Terry also writes that he Is
doing some competitive boxing
as well as instructing the ma
tives Of Venezuela and that
while he is not as fast on his
feet as when he formerly worked
around washington, he can
take care Of himself in real
fast company by using his head
in the tight places and falling
back on his long ring expe-
rienceS against his younger an
tagoniStS.
1.-The purses they put out
down here would make Dono-
van and Cornell pop-eyed," de-
clareS O'Day, "but the mana
gers here don't get anything
like the cut they get in the
United States. They figure
here it is the fighter who does
the work nd takes the chances
Of physical harm, and it is the
custom t. pay the fighters well
