 Iuddy Burke was the big gun in the locals rear artillery while the whole line functioned well, includ- ing "Slugger" Klug of Torrington who made his debut at tackle. The former Manhattan back scored in the first period, getting bloody nose in the bargain. The Tribes took the pigskin on their own S6. yard line after the Easterns punted and two first downs with Burke and weaver exceiling put the leath- CT on the Easterns 32.yard stripe.

THOMASTON SHOWS | IMPROVED ATTACK TN EASY TRIUMPH
Ponies ROut New Britain Tigers, 26.O as Line
 Play Stands Out
By MIKE DONOVAN

Thomaston, Oct S.-A greatly improved eleven sporting the colors of the Thomaston Ponies steam rollered the scrappy New Britain Tigers into submission on Plume and Atwood field here yesterday. 26-O.
 With aerials and line plays working in smooth fashion, and the hard charging backs Moose" Sarog and Andy Pavlicovic ripping holes in the New Britain defense, the local club looked more like contenders for the state title than they did the previous week.
 Pass Is Touchdown
 The touchdown march started near the close of the first period, with the old passing combination of Pavlicovic to Billy Szeskowski gaining 30 yards and a tally, the ball falling easily into the waiting arms of the Thomaston end after he had crossed the goal line. Pavlicovic failed to make the ex- tra point from placement.
 Line thrusts by Rudy Novacow- ski, Augie/ Benvenuti and Pavli- covic brought the ball to the six yard line late in the second quarter from where Novacowski dashed around end for the second marker. Two more were registered in the third period to complete the rout. Sarog and Pavlicovic hammered the line alternately to the two yard stripe where "Moose' smashed through for the touchdown. A blocked kick was responsible for the final tally. Julie Sarog re- covering the ball over the goal line. Pavlicovic added two points by placement.
 Tough for Gooda1l
 Bob Goodall, fast substitute back, skirted end for beautiful gain of 45 yards, only to have the ball recalled on 9 penalty near the end of the game, for what might have been another touchdown.
