Dear Sir: Among the New Britain boys at Camp Devens, we can select pleked eleven for the football field, which promises to win some of the trophies offered to the victorious iteams in this sport, which will, of f ‘course, be the most interesting of athletic event to be held at camp, and a wonderful opportunity to di play New Britain talent here, and let j the New England states’ know . that iWe are well represented at Camp | Devens. Do you think that the New Britain sports and athletic fans are interested enough in the welfare of their boys at camp to answer an appeal for funds through your columns for subscrip- tions to be used to furnish equipment for a crack eleven pledged to do their | utmost to secure the football honors at Camp Devens for their native city. | I s0, the boys would heartily appre- ciate your co-operation, Please address your reply as early as . possible to Private Louis Harold i Jartman, Company C, 30ist M. G. ' B. N., Camp Devens, Ayer, Mass. Judge William Francis Mangan, one of the most enthusiastic sporting fol- owers in this city. visited Camp Dev- ens yesterday and talked with a num- “ber of the boys. In every instance, ‘‘the need of football goods was urged by the local soldiers. Some of the i boys who are fond of a good smoke, | stated that they would be willing to \sacrifice a goodly portion of their fa- vorite weed, so that money now be- " ing spent for the tobacco fund could [ be placed at the disposal of those who © are to make a canvass in the interest of the football movement. While at ' the camp, Judge Mangan watched the ‘boys throwing an old football around the field, and so much ' care was exercised in the life of the antiquated | pigskin, that no participant was per- mitted to kick the ball, The locals have been favored so far by the coaching of Campbell, a for- mer Harvard end, and a Walter Cam gelection as an All-American play and Daly, formerly captain and tack’ of Fordham. The locals hope to b fitted out in good shape for the big game which takes place October 21 Contributions for the football fund will be appreciably received by Judge Mangan or the sporting editor of the Herald.

LGSE T0 HARTFORD Gapital City Pin Fpplers Win on HEtna Alleys It was “Hartford Night” at the Aetna alleys last evening, and as a result, the local Inter-City league bowling team was forced to submit to a two-time defeat at the hands of their bitterest rivals. There was a big crowd on hand to root for the locals, but their opportunity did not present itself until the final game, when the Hardware city quintet braced and managed to save themselves from a three-time defeat. Manager Griffith brought his charges to this city, in his benzine buggy, minus McCarthy and Clemen- tino, but in their places he substituted Maloney and Hamel. The little Celt southpaw, pitted against “Yen” And- erson, was instrumental in “bringing home the bacon” in the first game, when he knocked the pins around the pit for a 122 score, and an advantage of 39 pins over his Scandia opponent. The home team lost this game by a 43-pin margin, so it can readily be seen, that the Erin boy was a big factor in the victory. In the second game, the match was much closer, the Capitol city lane men coming out on top by 11 pins, mainly through the good work of Hamel and Carmen. Rogers’ selec- tions were in the dumps in this game, and not a mark over the century flgure was recorded. The locals finally hit their stride in the good-night session, and, the two Andersons and Brennecke hit tho | wood with a vengeance. Eddie And- | erson bowled a 128 score, Brennecke | followed with 108 and A. Anderson stood third with 106. The locals’ ad- vantage at the close was 21 pins. Al- | though his team was the loser, “Bill” | Brennecke accomplished something ! that brought joy to his heart, when he won a cigar from an onlooker for topping over a 100 score. Needless to say the loser was only forced to contribute 5 cents, for this is the fa- vorite price “Bill” pays for his ‘‘see- gars.” The scores follow: Casino, Hartford.

Army Coaches Whipping Team Into Condition. ‘West Point, N. Y., Oct. 11.—Army coaches began whipping the West Point eleven into shape yasterday to meet Virginia Military Institute here on Saturday. A two hours session was the lot of the soldier gridders and for- ty minutes of it was devoted to serim- maging with the scrubs. One touch- down, made by Bartlett, a newcomer, who is playing in McQuarrie’s place in the backfield because the latter is in scholastic difficulties, was the sum total of the big team’s score. Pulsifer was in for Stokes at cen- ter and Dominey, the former Villa Nova end, was given March's place at the left wing in today's drill. Post, who played on Harvard's freshman team last season, was given a trial at Murrill's quarterback position and did well. YALE CUBS TO PLAY. Freshman Hleven Will Meet Harvard and Princeton.
