Run1ors And Reality Gathered From This Sporting World The Grist Of Athletic Contest
 BY JOHN A. CLUNEY
AIl's We'll
 That Ends We'll

Time, the greatest ok all healers. apparently has had a most bene- ficial effect on the feelings of Manager Ralph Mastrianna and Frank Alicky of the Waterbury and Torrington football teams. The ultimate result, as 1t now seems is that Naugatuck valfey gridiron fans will see a bang-up football game and the contesting teams will have a chance to "get themselves out of the red" for the. season. The teams will play next Sunday at Torrington and 1t is safe to say at this writing, that the popula- ton of the city will be e.dded to by five thousand or more during the day. Torrington,s undefeated, un- tied record was marred a bit laet Sunday when the Hoben hired hands were held to a scoreless tie the Bristol West Ends, a fact made it easier for the Waterbury and Torrington managers to get together in regard to this weeks contest, which will be played at Fussenich park.

Cash Customers Like the Amateurs

That the sporting public mind hereabouts is definitely turning toward the amateur boxers Is evidenced by the fact that Wa terbury will see its third anna teur show in a month to-mor- row night at the Phoenix arena. The point to the whole situa- ton is that the people who can- not give the box-Office the g0- by get more action for less money than is the case with the paid performers. The younger boys only go four rounds at the most, and can afford to let themselves go at top speed for that distance if they are i'm good condition, and most of them are. Last weeks show was Q hum- diDger. This week, the layout looks even better on paper with Larkin and Hogan i'm . return go, and Joe Mobile boxing Char. ley Eagle, his most willing chal- lenger. Then there's little Fran. kie Angelo.

As reported in these columns a few days ago, it was a matter Of percentage, not courage, that was holding up the ''naturaP' Water bury, through its manager, Ralph Mastrianna, demanded 50 per cent or no game for last Sunday, ac- cording to the Torrington. booker, Frank Aliclxy. So it was no game, Waterbury laid off and Torrington was tangled up in a scoreless tie by the Bristol West Ends.
 Play 00-4O
 Therefore, when A1iclxy and a committee of players called on Manager Mastrianna last night, the atmosphere was very much clari- fled and the boys had no trouble getting together on a 60 per cent to the winner, 40 per cent to the loser basis which ough to make the winning share something like $1,- 900 if the game plays to a capacity crowd, and all indications point thereto.
 Means Much
 Torrington is very anxious to play the game, for obvious reasons, the most important being that a win for them will materially strengthen their claims on the state title. Waterbury would treasure a win too. for 1t would automatically mean that all con- tenders for the mythical cham pionship would have to beat Wa- terbury, which has, however, lost two games.
 Drill Tonight
 Tonight, the All-Waterburys meet at Hamilton park for a two- hour drill under the direction of Coach Eddie Barnikow. With so much at stake, the locals are an- xious to be right" for the all-im- portant game and will go to work at 7:30 p. m.

Looks Like a Garrison Finish

True to custom, tradition, and
 whatever else makes the Yale foot ball team start out like lambs and finish like lions, the fans who find at $40 head will probably see ding dong batle from start to finish. A few weeks ago, Antonio Botchagaloop your favorite organ grinder. could easily have picked the winner of this years Blue- Crimson classic and have about one chance in ten thousand of missing his guess. Now, however, the Dartmouth win and Princeton tie have the "experts" ringing in plenty of ifs, ands, and buts, that Is, the experts who are willing to hazard a guess on the outcome of the contest. As A matetr of fact, all season, your guess is as good as anyone else's in regard to foot ball winners of college games. That's where Chick Meehan is smart. He invariably picks the underdog and has had great year. If he picked the favorites and they won, he would be just another picker. As it is this year he is Meehan, the man who ex- pected the unexpected. Harvard and Yale always fight hard, re- gardless. of the distribution of ability within the two squads. Sat- urday should see them at their best. f

By far the most sturdy foe Steele has as yet met, Eagles ability will be tested in what may prove the best fight of the indoor season at the local enclosure.
 Although Steele will be defend 1ng his middleweight crown, Eagle fs expected to rule as the favorite in his match with Steele as he has been fighting for nearly two years while the Italian southpaw has had but 16 bouts, winning the majority of them by knockouts. The Crosby High school blonde will be making his first start here this season, but he has won his last 20 starts in bouts held in New Haven at the White City Stadium and the Arena. Eagle, in his last start, scored decisive victory over Vic DeSte- faIio of East Hampton at the New Haven Arena, while Steele punch ed out a win over New York boxer on last weeks stellar card.
 Both Can Hit.
 1t will be youth against experi- ence when they come together. It is on heavy punching ability that Steele will depend when they en- ter the ring and his sole idea will be to end the fight as soon as pos- sible. Eagle has been training hard for the contest and feels con- fident of lifting the title from his hometown rival.
 According to Chick Lawson. manager of Eagle, his protege was 'jobbed" of the middleweight title when Steve Carr of Rockville, former middleweight champion, en- tered the professional ranks. When Carr turned pro, Commissioner Donohue labelled the Joe Steele Joe Waynis, the latter from Wind- sor Locks, which bout was held in New Haven not so long ago as for the middweight title. Steele won the duke and the champion ship but when attempts were made to match him with Eagle, he fiatly refused to take him on. However, George Mulligan was able to land the match, and Lawson states that his fighter will knock Steele out, and he goes so far as to state that the contest will only last a round.
 Material Aplcnty.
 Waterbury boxers will be seen on the card as Mickey Dance, trainer of the Phoenix Gym has close to 20 fighters ready to go on if necessary. Dance has been spanding a lot of time drilling Eddie Hogan for his return melee with Harry Larkin of New York, and is looking forward to seeing him squaring accounts, and by a Knockout at that.

 SPORT-O-GRAMS


 The Naugatuck Y. M. C. A. vol Iey-ball team swamped the New Haven team last night at New Haven. There was no compari- son in the ability of the two groups--Naugatuck winning with out any effort. Apparently the New Haven men have not met their stride as they usually pro- vide good competition.
 Tn the last 2 games the Nauga- tuck men swapped around with the spikers setting up and the set-up men spiking and even so they won easily. Naugatuck won all five games with the following scores: 15-3, 15-S. 15-6, 15-1, 15-S.
 The following men represented Naugatuck last night: Capt James Lutze, Elton Abramson. Fred Ba- ker. Rudy Sunblade, Bill Baxter. and Fritz Klambt.

High School Sport Loses a Friend

High school basketball, foot ball, baseball players us we'll as other boys interested i'm other sports will probably never rc-. alize to what extent Dr Michael c. Donovan was their bencfac- tor. As principal of Crosby high school, and later as school superintendent, Dr Donovan was always ready to do what he could to help the boys enjoy them- selves within the bounds of fair ness and scholastic require mcntS. When George Taylor's Crosby high school team re- turned from Chicago, there was no one SO happy as Professor Donovan. To him they repre- scented the presentation of an ideal-thc ideal of youth as ex- emplified by Crosby boys. They were his boys, and he was keen- Iy proud of them. His public spiritctlness in regard to any, thing and everything of a muni- clpal nature that bore the stamp of being worthy is too well known to need repeating here. In his rather sudden demise, high school sport in Waterbury loses Q great friend.

PONIES INVADE
 BRISTOL SUNDAY
 FOR WEST ENDS
ThomastOn Eleven Will In- wade Bell City for Re- turn Tilt - New Haven Quartet Signed
Especial to the Democrat)


 Thomaston, Nov 16.-The Thom- aston Ponies will go into one of two major games remaining on their seasons schedule Sunday af- ternoon when fney appear against the West Ends of Bristol in con- test. at Muzzy field in the Bell City. On october 23 the rival ag- gregations battled to a 6-6 tie, and the return number, scheduled to begin at 2:15. o'clock should be one of the outstanding attractions in semi-pro circles for the coming Sabbath.
 The feat of the Bristol eleven in holding the highly touted All-Tor- rington team to a scoreless tie last Sunday in the New City, has turned the attentoin of most fans to d victory for the Bristol eleven oil Sunday over the "Galloping Grid men," However, Thomaston is de- termined to have something to say about that angle itself and is go- ing over to Bristol with firm inten- tions of handing the West Finders drubbing. The Ponies. never theless can expect to have plenty of opposition in their. way on the Bell City gridiron, for in the first contest, the light, but speedy West End team, working behind their star triple threat back, Babe Phelps of Hartford, really out played the champions.
 Practice among the Little Hors- es" was held last night at the Ath- letic field with Jack Innis in charge. The last workout prior to the engagement will be conduct ed on Friday night. instead of on Thursday night, the usual night for drills and will begin at o. clock. Havenich, Grove, Sevigny and McNulty, all New Haven play CTS with the outfit, will report for the drill on Friday night, and per- form in the contest on Sunday.

 Billy Cahill finally turned In some of the games of which he Is cap- able and with Frank Leary and Bill Cunningham assisting him took three points from the North End CTS. Bill Cavanaugh of the North Enders hit 134 in the final game, but received no support from his mates.
 Pete Pronovost led the attack of the school teachers against Tom Lawlor's team, with a three game pinfall of 345 and high single of 139. On what was apparently a perfect spare hit in the last box, one pin stayed up or Pete would have made new high single for the brothers to shoot at. With only four men bowling the teachers hit 1542 for second high three games. Fred Ensminger saved the day for the Lawlor men by beating his av- craze by B pins in the second game. Under Bill Sitzer's coach ing, Enaminger is coming along in great shape.
 When the boys come to town, they sure make night out of it., furnishing plenty of excitement as well as good bowling. In the match between the Villagers and the Townics, Bill Delange and WatervilIe Dan Sullivan took all the honors. Bills good bowling settled the first two games in favor of the Town team, while Dams strong finish in the final game won this contest for the Villagers as well as gave them the margin for pinfaIl. You just can't keep the Sullivans out of the spotlight.
