row at Leavenworth, and there's
no feeling a. Crosby this week.
Wildly high meets the Big Red Of
Torrington at Municipal Stadium
Saturday with their captain and
Quarterback Dick Alvarez back in
the lineup fully recovered from a
shoulder dislocation suffered early
in the season.
Leavenworth high schools foot
ball team, which faces the rest of
the season without their able cap
tain and fufllback, Frank Lazesky,
drill this week for their game with
Bristol high at Bristol Saturday. It
is expected that the brunt of the
work will probably be on the shoul-
ders of Nick Santopietro for the rest
Of the season.
Costly Victory
The Tech Tigers won their game
with Gilbert Saturday, 1876, but lost
their sparkplug, husky Frank La
zesky who suffered broken leg in
pile-up in the opening moments
of the second half. La2esky was
rushed to st. Mary's hospital where
the break was set by DR.. Edward H.
Kirschbaum.
Crosby's whiting Old Ivy, who have
only one win to their credit this
year, played scoreless tie in their
Mexican stand-off with Greenwich
here Saturday at the local stadium.
They meet Naugatuck Saturday at
the Recreation field in a game that
is a toss-up because it is in the Dor
ough. Naugatuck hasn't won game
this season and has had track-team
scores piled against it but may
make Its best showing against CroS-
by.
WeIl-DOne
On Saturday, Leavenworth fol-
lwoed up its surprise 8-6 win over
Crosby with a nice Is to 6 win over
Gilbert at Winsted, which proved
costly when Laseky'S leg was broken
after a line play in the third per-
iod. The Tech line was strong, the
backs alert and were on the way to
an early first period score when
fufmbles slowed them down. How
ever, the final play Of the first quar-
ter, found the combination of Lase-
ksy and Santopietro able to bring
Tech a touchdown when Lasesky
blocked q Gilbert punt and Santo-
pietro recovered a foot from the
goal line, from which Laseksy scored
on the first play.
Lazesky's leg was broken on a re-
verse play after the kickoff starting
the second half of the game.
A pass, King to Cleveland brought
the ball to the Tech Is from mid
field, after whichc Cleveland then
scored on an off-tackle play. Santo-
pietro Of Tech scored the winning
touchdown with the aid TO Ed Ma
tesavage who caught his forward
pass from the Tech 40 and ran t a
scroe, Sa1topietro getting another
point on q line play after the touch
down. Summary:
