The contest |Is weheduled for 3 o%lock, and will bring together two rivals that have contest- years in brilliant battles. The visiting eleven will be headed by “Spud” Drew, who has made fame at the Springfield Y. M. C. A. colleg It is a team that is generally oon- ceded to be the best in Hartford this season. As the Tigers-Ramblers meet the All-Hartford team soon, the vis- Itors are particularly anxious to cop a victory over the locals, in view of the fact that the Hardware City | team won from the All-Hartfords. Under the name of the Tigers, | many of the players who will be | here Sunday have performed on lo- cal gridirons. The Tigers-Nutmegs | games last year were flercely fought | battles, resulting on two occasions in a drawn battle. With the addition | of several of the star Ramblers team, the combination this year looks like | one of the best in the state. Some of the well known players with the Capttol City team are Courtney, a | ghant tackle; “Whitey” Fitzgerald, the | serappy center; “Dutch” Kent, the | wrestler, and Captain Drew. Mike Morley, the welterweight boxer, 1is playing on one of the wings for the T-R.s. Captain Drew Is engaged as physical director at Trinity college. He is considered the greatest snap- back that the Springfield “Y" ever boasted. Great things are expected of the local backfield in the coming game. The management will probably start, Koplowitz, at quarterback, with Cap- tain Nelson, Thompson and Hagearty, the other backfleld men. Conley and Zehrer will play ends. The Nutmegs' line willprobably be the same as has performed in past games. A new player whose identity is being kept | a secret will be with the locals. and will ed in past “Big Five” in East Considered Fave orably by Football Officials at Han- over—Would be Strong Organization | Boston, Oct. 28.—Dartmouth will not play Pittsburgh on the football | gridiron next Fall, all reports from Pittsburgh to the contrary notwith- standing. And the reason. or one of them any- according to Horace G.

This organization will he made up Dartmouth, Cornell, Pennsylvania, Columbia and Colgate, according to Mr. Pender. New York and Philadel- phia will undoubtedly be the scenes of two of Dartmouth's “Big Five" games, while Boston and Hanover will see two | more of the games. This new “Big | Five" will turnish Eastern football fans with something a little more than | worth while, in Mr. Pender's opinion, | with the new coaching systems fully established and in most cases seasoned | veteruns "l"llr"‘llF to college. of N.

The afternoon, ssky New Haven High will play at St Mary's game will be a league con- test, and the kickoff will be at 3 o'clock. The team has put in a hard week of practice with Coach Clesson Parker, working to overcome the de- fects that were so plainly obvious in the disastrous game at Ansonia last Saturday. The games played so far this season have showed the locals to have a very fine backfield, with there being plenty of room for improvement in the line However, Abetz has re- poined the tcam, and this will un- doubtedly fill up a weak @ap around the center position. Jimmy Renehan./who was unwble to play in the game against Ansonia last Saturday, has rejoined the team, and will play at one of the halfback po- sitions. With Appell and Captain Pep- au as his running mates, this trio is scted to things to the heavy v Haven line. » those who have followed the football teams at the High school for many years, there appears to be a lack of iInterest in this year’s team.

The statement was i reply ports that the club had been of the game throwing and have taken action before the jury began the investigation resulted in true bills being against thirteen persons. Redmond, who was brought here by President B. B. Johnson of the American league to testify, announced last night he had told the jury he had given President Charles A. Com- iskey of the club positive evidence last winter that the series was ed." “Redmond never gave any one con- nected with this club any evidence upon which the club could act,” said the statement. “The club was in- formed last winter that Redmond had lost heavily upon the series and had learned that games were thrown and would be willing to give evidence upon which the guilty persons could be convicted if the club would make last to re- aware could grand which voted | ood his losses. “Manager Willlam Gleason and Norris O’Neill immediately went to St. Louis to see Redmond and, later, he came to Chicago at the club’s re- quest. Redmond could not, however, tell anything dqlnll@ He had only rumors, only hearsay stories. He could not name or furnish anything which could be called evidence. His story then seemed to be merely the hard luck story of a loser. “The only person he could refer the club to was Carl Zoark of St. Louis. Zoark told the club he knew nothing of any crooked work and that Red- mond was just a hard loser. “Despite the fact that Redmond had heard every effort was made to veri- reports and obtain evidence, but none was obtained until after the grand jury started its in- vestigation. When real evidence of crookedness was obtained this club acted in a manner which is well known.™ Officials in the state attorney’s of- fice refused to comment on the state- ment.
