NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, W NEARLY 50 CANDIDATES, INCLUDING 9 LETTER MEN, REPORT TO COACH GEORGE CASSIDY FOR N. B. H.S. SQUAD—STANLEY WORKS GIRLS AND INTER- FACTORY LEAGUES OPEN—PIRATES AND BRAVES SPLIT DOUBLE HEADER—KAUFF IS GRANTED INJUNCTION AGAINST THE NEW YORK. NATIONALS 1921, ——f HOPES OF NEW BRITAIN HIGH LOOM UP BRIGHTLY FOR SUCCESSFUL YEAR ON GRIDIRON; NINE LETTERMEN OUT Coach George Cassidy and Assistants Optimistic — Season Will Open One Week From Saturday. lettermen and about 40 s from whom the com- plement of one of the fastest squads that has represented the New Britain High school in recent years should be eanly selected, Coach George Cassidy of the local High school team and former High school stars who have watehed the workouts of the last wee at Walnut Hill park are more than optimistic concerning the fate of the Red and Gold this season Cassidy in Charge Coach Cassidy will personally handle the destinies of the squad this year He has been assured by the school committee that the city wil not finance the hiring of a weh to assist hir but he is leaving not a stone unturnad in his efforts to provide the squad with the bést things possible in coachiig Himself a lineman who prowess was known to every of the gridiron #ports some years ago, but best known to those who played on the opposing teams, there is little doubt but that the line will get the best of handlink For a few weeks at least, he will be assisted in line coaching by George Leghorn, & former woarer of the red and gold who has been attracting at- tention at Catholic University in recent years. Leghorn won his monogram last season playing at right guard. At the capital he is regarded a hard hitting, quick thinking lineman, which fact he is proving by the method in wheh he is instilling the principles of offensive and defensive pisying into the High school squad dally at the park. With nine other candid Others Will Assist Lawyer David L. Dunn, who turned out two champlonship teams—basket- ball and football—during the one year * that he was a coach, has agreed to as- " alst in a géneral way In whipping the team Into shape. The job as coach was offered Lawyer David L. Dunn last year but he declined to inability to devote the necessary time to that work. Harry \Ginsberg, George Bayer and Dr. J, M. Klein are at the. park almost dally lending their support As soon as the rough edges have been polished off the squad, Coach Cassidy will bring several football stars of other years here to look over and suggest improvements. He has been assured the services of at least one gridiron notable, whose abiliity won for him a piace on the All-Amer- foan eleven, who will come here when- ever Mr. Cassidy may have use for his sorvices. Open Senson Sept. 21 Manager Hayes is busily compiling aschedule of games which, with the exception of one contest, he has prac- tically completed. The pose the Alumni cleven at a punter who will make the Capital City boys be ever on their guard. Davis is booting them daily and has shown marked improvement since the first practice of last week So that the team will not be obliged to depend entirely upon one man for kicking, the coach is also working Walker, a man, and Grifin n punts. Walker is a rangy youngster who appears to have both strength and a liking for the game, being pos- sessed, as well, of a toe that sends the pigskin well down into the lot Griffn is also showing up well in that department of the game. May Bar Bentz The loss of Abetz at center leaves a big hole in that part of the line The squad has a hope in the person » Bentz, who, should he be adjudged ligible to play, should give an excel- lent ount of himself. Bentz attend- »d the local school two years ago and then went to a preparatory school. Re- turning this y with considerably more poundage and a desire to mix it with Hartford, he was one of the first play to report. Whether or not the 11 week attendance rule will be ap- plied in his case is a matter that the school officials have not made a deci- sion upon as yet. In the meantime, Bentz is working out with the so-call- ed first squad, nightly. Veterans at Ends The end positions are in capabie hands. Landino at left and Rocco at right are a pair of flashes, speedy of iott and reliable in runnng down punts and forward passes. Each holds an NB, won last season. There is an abundance of material for filling the two positions, which now seem likel to rest in the hands of the two play- ers mentioned. “Li’l Matthew™ Clark, Conley, Zehrer and McCue are among the most likely looking of the candi- dates. Clark showed his wares in inter- clags baskethall and showed up well in track events this year. Conley is a brother of “Uncle’” Conley of Catholic University and Nutmeg fam. and gives indiciation of development. Zehror was a candidate for a place last year, but because of an injury was kept ou: of the game during the entire seasoa. McCue has played with several ama- teur and semi-professional clubs, and although light is chock full of game- ness. new Guards Available For the guard positions, Williams, chaeffer, Feineman and Durham are candidates. The first three are letter- men and members of last yvear's squad while the last pamed is a new man who gives promise of making the trio of veterans hustle if they are to retain their places. Schaeffer is out of the game for a few days on account of a strained tendon in his leg but will be back in uniform by the first of next week. The coaching squad is trying Willlams in the back field for the present, but may later shift him, to the line., Captain Feineman is one of the quietest football players that has ever donned the red and gold. At least he appears so to those who have watched him working out. At right guard, he playgrounds one week from urday in the opener of the season. On Oc- tober 1, the schedule will open possi- bly with the team of the Wallingford High school The big game of the season, the an- “nual clash with the Hartford High school, will be played off in this city November 12, the game being staged at St. Mary's playgrounds. Last year was one of the exceptions to the rule of New Britain victories over Hart- ford, the Capital City outfit having pushed over a win, despite the gallant attempt of the local eleven stave off defeat. To say that the locals are out to avenge that defeat is to put the matter htly, which fact {s at- tested by the presence of nearly 50 men at the park every afternoon each {n the hopes that they may be entrust- ed with the duty of protecting one of ; the eleven positions on the 1921 squad. Davis May Kick absence of Peplau, captain of r's squad, leaves the team with- out a punter and presents one of the first problems to the coaching staff 1n Davie, who last year played on the Iine, but who will undoubtedly be seen in the backfield this meason, Coach Cassidy entertains hopes of developing is a plodder who invariably makes his way through the line of opposition and rarely makes way for one of the opposition to get through his part of the line. Feineman turned in an ex- cellent season’s work last year, being rewarded by election to the captaincy. Backficid Looks Good The backfleld presents a pleasing spectacle of pep, speed and skill with- out the sightest evidence of ponderous poundage. “Dixie” Griffin has returned after a year's absence to get just one more whack at Hartford. Twice Griffin has appeared in the lineup of the big game of the season and on neither occasion did the Capital City boys come through with a victory. And his play ing was in no small part responsible tor that fact. Griin will run the team at quarter. Since leaving school, “Dixie” has remained in the game and he returns in the pink of condtion. “Batt Murtha is out to retain his place at fullback. The “Battler loomed up last year as a player of worth, but because of his youth and comparative inexperience, he was un- able to do the things which are ex- pected of him this year.

The former, al- though a new man, gives great promise of results. He is the heaviest line man in the outfit. Cooley has a year's experience and is one of the lettermen Davie, plaving at right halfback, is expected to take care of much of the kicking. The back is one of the school's leading track stars, which| fact, added to his ability to kick and knowledge of the g..me, makes him a valuable man. Mahoney is the only new man in the proposed first string backfield. He is, perhaps. the heaviest of the four, being about 150 pounds, but is a flash on his feet and gives indication of being a heady plaver. He is slated for a place at left half. Mahoney won a letter in basketball this season. Other Backficld Men Other backfield material that looks most promising includes O'Dell, quarterback: Williams, fullback and Naples, ,halfback Although the weights of the entire squad have not been taken. Manager Hayes estimates the weight of the team at 140 pounds. This is consider- ably less than the average High school team weight, but what is lacking in poundage is more than made up for in gameness, the manager claims.
