.EDMONDS SEEMS
 "ONE MAN TEAM''
 FOR NAUCY HIGH
First String Eleven Medi-
 Ocre in Drill Without Negro Star
Especial to the Democrat)

Naugatuck, Oct 26.-The Nauga- tuck high school football team will not enter the game tomorrow af- ternoon with Warren Harding the favorite to cop the contest which will be played in Bridgeport at 2:3o. Yesterdays practice session of the team did not put the Gar net in a very good light.
 A certain lack of aggressiveness seems to- characterize some of the members of the team. There is not the drive or confluence usual- ly shown by Naugatuck high school teams at this stage of the season
 Much fumbling or bad passes marred the session yesterday. At least twice the first team lost 10 to 15 yards because a pass from center was not caught. Other times ends had passes in their hands and dropped them.
 One Man Team?
 There is no doubt Frank Ed monds, negro back, is outstand- ing on the team but local fans wonder just what will happen if he is forced out through injury. When he was out of play yester- day the first team looked dis tinctly second rate and the seconds made much more progress.
 Ray Anderson seems to be show ing little more speed. This boy has shown ability in picking the holes Lat he has been caught of- ten because he has not stepped along fast enough. Kudzma was playing in the backfield yesterday. Line and running plays were stressed yesterday with little em- phasis being put on forward pass ing.

Carr is anxious to get off on the right foot before an Arena audience and in meeting Walsh, the youthful but bald-headed battler from Gotham. the Brass City choir singer will have his golden opportunity.

DUQUESNE MEETS
 DETROIT TONIGHT

Detroit, Oct 26.-Something in the nature of ''grudge fight" is scheduled in the University of De- troit stadium tonight when the Titans entertain Duquesne .univer- sity; not that there is any blood between the teams but simply be- cause the Titans feel that this is the game above. all others that they must win. Duquesne knocked them off IA to 0 last fall and was the only team to come out on top. In fact only one other, Marquette, was able to score on Detroit and the Dorais troopers won thar game handily.
 Twenty of the Duuesne men who were on the squad when the Dukes licked the Titans are back this year and the Titans will present all but four of the regulars who suc- cumbed to the prowess of the eleven then coached by Elmer Layden. Captain Cliff Marsh, quarterback, Reisterer, end, anl Sharkey, cented. graduated last June and Vincent Kadi, fullback, was killed in an accident on August 29, just few days before the practice season opened.

EIGHT STELLAR
 LICHTWEICHTS IN
 GARDEN TOURNEY
,Dublinsky and Jackson Prominent in November
 Ring Lineup
fsneciaI 10 The Denlocrat)


 New York. Oct 26--There is so much interest evinced in the out come of the four stellar attrac- tions on the November card, at Madison Square garden, that the betting lads on Broadway arc making book on the probable re- suits. :,
 It goes without saying small fortune will change hands on the result of the scheruled eight round- CT between Leonard DelGenio and Charley Banami, rivals for inc Bronx Harlem lightweight cham pionship.
 The quotations follow:
 Harry Dublinsky vs Frankie Klick, even money; Al Roth vs Ed die Cool, 8 to Cool fayorite; Tony Falco vs Peter Jackcon, to }, Jackson choice; Leonard Del Genio vs Charley Badami, even money.
 Remember?
 Not since the days of Benny Leonard, Lew Tender, Johnny Dundee, Charley White, Richie Mitchell, Frankie Callahan, Willie Jackson and Leach Cross. has finer lot of potential champs been so skilfully matched than the above quartet of, real fights.
 Promoter Jimmy Johnston did himself proud getting the eight seekers together. Dublinsky, for in- stance, holds "duke" over Tony Canzoneri and his opponent klick several months ago held champion Barney Ross to ten-roand draw.
 Undoubtedly all eyes will be fo- cused on the much publicizcd Jackson, Pacific coast champion, who hopes to celebrate his New York debut with a kayo over Fal- co, sturdy Philadelphian. The ne- gro sensation starts hard training this afternoon at Stillman's gym. He did eight rounds of work yes treday consisting for the most part of calesthenics and shadow box ing. He is built like heavyweight from the waist up and onws the finest pair of legs ever seen on fighter lean and as strong as steel.

CARDINAL BOSS 7. AND DADDY DEAN
 GET TOGETHER
Exchange COmplim e nt s
 and All Seems Smooth Sailing for l935
By LESLIE AVERY United Press Stnff Cnrresnnildef1f.

United Press Staff Correspondent.
 St Louis (UP)-Dizzy Dean has a job pitching for the St Louis Cardinals fust as long as President Sam Breadons owns the National League club here.
 T have assured Dizzy that he's going to pitch for me as long as I own the team,' Breadon told A. M. Pa" Dean, father of Paul and Dizzy Dean. And do you know what Dix replied? Well, MT Brea- don, sho am glad of that, for as long as play baseball, want to play in St Louis. l like the folks here and the town, too, and I'm glad to know you want me to stay with the Cardinals
 Fine Boys
 "You sure have two fine boys, MT Dean," Breadon told the fath- CT of the two pitching stars who brought the championship of the world to the Cardinals by winning two games each against the De- troit Tigers in the World Series.
 ''Yes," the elder Dean admitted. q raised those boys, know what they are made of. and they have strong constitutions--neither one has been sick a day"
 Breadon anticipated no trouble in signing the Deans up again when contract time rolls around next year. He scoffed at rumors that he would have a hard time satisfying Paul and Dizzy after their 1894 feats.
 I Always Fair
 "The Cardinals always have been fair with their players. In this case we realize the value of the Dean boys to the club," Breadon said. As both Dizzy and Paul have convinced us they are stars and deserving of stars salaries, am sure when they are ready to talk about 1885 contracts we will get together without any trouble at all."
 The Cardinal president pointed out that while Dizzy's salary of $S,500 might have seemed small this year, that the contract for this amount had been signed just after Dig had gone through me- diocre season, and that Paul's sal- ary of $3,500 was the same as that offered all untried rockies on com. ing into big time.

Green Torrington
 Team May Surprise Stiff Crosby Squad

Crosby highs football team may be due for a surprise this after noon at Hamilton Park when they take on the supposingly green Torrington team ata o'clock. Tor rington's record has not yet been impressive, merely because of the team being deprived the use of a field and working under several othr handicaps. However, knowing that Crosby is a comparatively light team they may pull a "Hou- dini' such as they displayed against Wilby, with the experience they have been absorbing in the past weeks they may upset some fthese too over confident oppon- ents. t .,.s.-
 Two regulars of Crosby will be lost to them this afternoon for both Flamighetti and Mike Shee- han are suffering with leg injur- ies. Holmes replaces Sheehan at right end, with Pushelski at right tackle for Flamighetti. DeSantis, who made such a good showing re- gently in the Roxbury tilt will prob ably get chance in today's game. To brighten up affairs the Crosby band of -35- pieces will be on hand today. Officials for today's game are Hall (Meriden), Brink (New Britain) and Cammarano (New Hayen).

 Ball Carriers
(By Staff Correspondent

Cheshire, Oct 25.-In a scoreless gridiron game put on by the sec onds of Wilby and Roxbury yester. < day afternoon on the Norman Hail field, the spectators drew hasty conclusion before the first quar- ter was over, and left their seats to find something more exciting than the two teams that were play ing tag with eacht other on the field.
 The teams were evenly matched, and neither one of them threatened to score during the contest, with the ball remaining between the 2o- yard lines throughout the tilt. Some fine ball carrying was wit messed by the few remaining stu- dents of both schools and that was by those two promising youngsters of Roxbury, Kilcullen and Brand, with a little more experience they should develop into fine ball car rfers and real football players. Two members of the Wilby Reserves turned in fine performance, Noonan and McAcre who gained most of the ground for Wilby' Both teams played strong deten. sive games when ever the ball was in their territory, each eleven had two concerted drives whicb fIoundered when the scoring zone was reached.

 At least that's the theory. as he Harvard Student Council, pointing out the danger of injury from fall- ing goal posts and hand-to-hand skirmishes, has advised the student body to desist and let ho will take the timbers.
 In keeping with an ancient tra- dition. Harvard students permit Yale men to take the goal posts when the Ellis win the annual game. when others teams have won, however, Harvard always has maintained fighting interest in its lumber.
