 The series between the New Ro. chelle Bulldogs and the Danbury Trojans dates back to ieS3 and has always provided . rip.Snorting ball game. The Bulldogs have been one Of the Trojans greatest rivals as evidenced by the fact that 5000 people sat through c pouring rain storm last year to watch the Tro- ianS knock Q i3-O victory over the New Rochelle club. Bridgeport's representatives on the Trojans team played 6 prominent part in the game last Sunday at Bristol, as Vic Curtis, Butch pivernick, Bill Ceri- gone and Steve Miska and I'd, DinSmore played almost co minutes each. Bill Cerigone is the hardest hitting back on the club and has become an overnight sensation and favorite with the fans. He hits with speed of . bull and when he breaks through the opposing line he Is ale most impossible to stop. Weighing ieb pounds and in perfect physical condition he fits perfectly in the Trojan attack. Another Trojan star Is Tom Guinea, former Boston Col. iege halfback whose sensational broken field running has kept the fans on the edge of their seats. Tom peeled off c 50 yeard run against the Boston shamrocks which was beautiful to watch. The New Ro- chelle Bulldogs the Trojans greatest rival next to Bristol will be head cd by Bill 0iassford former All- American guard ct the University of Pittsburg. Biff as he was nick named was captain of the 1886 var. sity which won the 1886 Rose Bowl game, was chosen on practically every all American team in the country that year. He was rated by Jock Sutherland head coach of the University of Pittsburgh as the greatest lineman he ever coached. He pulls out of the line very fast, blocks like an Army tank and is never sucked out of position on de- fense. In almost every game of his collegiate career he was the fifth man in the enemy backfield.
 Sundays game will start promptly at 2 o'clock and the officials will be Joe Kraynick, Ed. shugrue, of Bridgeport, and Chick Kelley of Waterbury.
