Local Soccer Club in 3.2 Victory for Second
 League Win
fSpecial to The Democratl

Bridgeport, Sept 23-The Wa terbury Portuguese societies de- feated the German Sports club of Bridgeport here today. The final score was 3-2. The contest marked the second win for the Waterbury team in the Central Connecticut league.
 The game was the most inter- esting battle that waged in the circuit during the current season and both clubs were at their full strength playing "hot shots" to advantage several times. Many ex- cellent stops were made by the shorts" goalie, Glynn and the veteran American Ieagurer Joe Reynolds. The latter proved to be effective in clearing all threatening attacks.
 Sudden Action.
 There was a scoreless tie until thirty-three minutes of play when Duncan dribbled through two op- son Bowes. The pass then went to Cwikla, who raced through Glynn for the first marker. Four minutes ldteE Llo WdIcTDuTy pldycIS SCOTSu again when "Scotty' Herman start ed the play at Duncan, to Cwikla, to T. Bowes and to the goal.
 Fast Play.
 The second half of the contest opened showing a tired Water bury team on the field. Within twenty-five minutes the Park City state champions were successful in registering two scores and short time later another goal was ruled off side. Both teams launched a free kicking exhibition and finally Duncan got a pass over to Cwik1a who sent the ball quite a distance out to Aguair who dribbled about consistently. T. Bowes took pass and registered his second goal of the afternoon. From that point un- til the whistle the Bridgeport team could not get the ball within SCOT ing distance.
 In the other league contest played at Seaside Park the Bridge port Swedish outfit won from the Hartford Germans by score of 60.

ministrator, to various relief
projects.
She inspected a factory at

visit to Puerto Rico a strictly busi-
ness affair and has cnly a meager

A complete reorganization OF

Everett Sanders as national chair
man, was urged today by sena-

complish a comeback

opposed to the choice OF any
Eastern conservative or Repuo-
lican national chairman.
Watson Approved
Nye urged appointment OF a
Western Progressive as Repuo-
lican chairman. AS a compro,,
mise, he said, the West would
accept former Senator James E.
watson. of Indiana, who went
down to defeat in the Roosevelt
landslide.
Nye would not comment on re-
ports that Eastern Republican
leaders were seeking to make
Henry P. Fletcher, former ambaS-
sador, the new Republican chair
man. He included Fletcher, how
ever, among the Eastern con-
servatives," whose choice would
meet little approval in the west.
Nye said:
"If the party is to accomplish
a comeback, it must have leader
ship and vision which seems
now to be wholly lacking. Its COM
placency during the hours OF
grave economic changes have
left the party with an exceed
ingIy difficult path before 1t.
IN BAD SPOT
"The party cannot say that
the Democratic Administration
is wrong and on that ground
alone expect the people to
abandon this Administration
when their only alternative
finds the Mellon Mills picture,
and their kind of Indifference to
public need, staring them in the
face.
"The party, however, should
be warned that their only hope
for victory in 1884 or 1896 rests
in the Middle and Far West. If
it remains blind to this fact,
the Republican party had bet
ter resign itself to decades Of
life as a minority party"
