CLAIRMONTS GET BLACK ROCK ii
 FOR LOCAL GO
Bridgeport Co m bine at Hamilton Park Sunday
 Central Stars in Lineup

No sooner had settlement for 8 game with either the Wethersfield A. c. and the Wheel Club of Mill ford to appear with the Waterbury Clairmonts at Hamilton Park Sun day afternoon failed to reach an agreement last night through phone communications, when Manager Joseph Trumfio of the Brass City organization lost no time to pro- vide local football fans with gridiron action when he visited Bridgeport and landed a contest with the Black Rocks. The Park City eleven, a leading southern Connecticut outfit, and the Steamrollers will battle 1t out at the East End field on the Sabbath Day starting at 2:3O o'clock.
 Many Selections
 Early in the week the Clairmont pilot had under consideration for 8 Sunday game with one of the fol- lowing clubs: Litchf1eld Cowboys in return game, Wethersfield A. C.. and the Milford Wheel Club. A financial disagreement, 1t was learned indirectly, was said to be the cause of failing to meet with arrangements.
 The Rock combination will come to town Sunday with confidence of crushing the Brass City machine. Mike Gynowcz and Bobby Jontos, two former Central High school captains and new members to the lineup, are the big Rocks" for the Park City eleven. After splitting evenly in four games this season the Rockers, revamped by the addi- tional strength, played 8 scoreless game with the Fairfield Tigers, un- defeated in five starts, Sunday af- ternoon before 5000 persons in Bridgeport. During the first half, the smooth -functioning Black Rock team played the legs off the Tigers and kept them back in the shadow of the Fairfield goal posts.
 New Prayers
 Strengthened by the addition of two Meriden lads, who have agreed to play with the Clairmonrs for the remainder of the season, the Steanl- rollers are ready to face the in- vaders. The two new faces are George Panciera, former quarter back for the Meriden High school team and Allentown Prep star, and "Shutchy" Bernaski. Bernaski was for some time an active member of the Steamroller machine last year. These lads will be seen in action along with other members of the Waterbury Club tomorrow evening at Hamilton Park at 7:30 o'clock. A vigorous punch is now being dis played, conspicuously, in the Clair mont camp following the victory over the Litchfield Cowboys Sunday. All players under the Clairmont colors are in the pink of condition with the exception of Turk J'Anthony, who will be on the sidelines at least two more weeks.
