= ON THE FIRST BOUND e e T WITH OL The New Britain football showed | the skeptics something yesterday, in | downing'she speedy Nutmegs of New Haven. It was a good game, and most of the fans were pleased judg- Ing from the remarks heard after the game, | It a good spirit that the New Britaip footérs showed toward the | team,/even before the score was tled. When Barnikow clinchéd the victory, the enthusiasm broke forth in real tashion. Cummings showed his real value to the locals yesterday by the way he played. His recelving of forward asses was all that cofld be desired, and thé manner in which he shook off two opposing players in registering that touchdown, proved him a very high lass performer. Praise was heard on all sides of the work of Rogers, Cleary and Po- litis. There is no reflection on the efforts of Frankel or Leary, either. “Hickey" certainly got a way to a bad start in the first period, but ufter he settled down, his work was of a stellar order. It will be & long time before the fans see a better kick than that of Captain Barnikow yesterday. Bill May, who was mentioned as a possible player on the New Britain team, watehed the game from the sidélines with Harry Ginsberg. Joe Currie, one of the leading featherweights in New England, was one of the timekeepers yesterday. The old habit of the ecrowd surging on the field was in evidence yesterday. This was due to the inefficiency of somg of the cops supposed to look after this matter. There was a lack of harmony in the local ranks in the first half, judg- ing from the remarks heard while the pll(nru were resting. This was ironed out “aftér Coach F. Barnikow and Manager Kiniry spoke briefly to the performers. The management had the field fenced off yeterday, and this helped considerably at the admission gate. The game scheduled yesterday be- tween the Rovers and Newington teams was postponed until next Sun- day. The Trojans football team has re- organized for the 1922 season. Most of Jast season's playérs are back in thé fold. The teams will hold a practice tomorrow night at Bentz's hall on Clark street, at 7 o'clock. A first ¢lass coach has been secured. W. C. Wearne, of 227 Washington street, {6 the manager of the Trojans, and all communications should be addressed to him. Two néw bowling leagues will gpen the season this week at Rogers g:ec- réation alleys. The Stanley Works Bush league, with 10 teams, will start _on. Wednesday night, and on Wednesday night the New Britain | Machine company league, with four teams, will start. On Thursday night four other teams in the Machine The 18th annual outing of the Compounce last Saturday, was the most successful ever held. A splendid Traut & Hine Foremen's club at Lake sheep dinner with the trimmings was served, and a program of short speeches and athletic events added to | ¥ the success of the affair. = F Ike T. Hills, president of the club, presided in the role of toastmaster. He did a splendid job, and later as a baseball player, he equalled the field- (s Ing fame of Harry Hooper, with sev- eral fine catches. President G. W. Traut addressed the gathering and was very brief in his remarks. He called attention to the fact that in all of the outings|l held by the club so far, fine weather has prevailed. i “It's always fair weather when (1 good fellows get together,” was sung by the Traut & Hine Glee club. z = i A. C. Sternberg told how it feels to be among good fellows on an outing. G. W. Turner of New York, one of the guests, also contributed a few re- marks. Neéxt to Frankie Clynes, Engelbert Miller was the real song leader of the party. It is customary for people having new resolutions in mind, to wait until New Year's time. The writer has, however, after the task of umpiring had ween wished on him last Satur- day, has decided_forever and anon to lay off baseball arbiters in the future. It was With considerable surprise that the writer heard that after many weelks of discussion over the baseball game between the Yanks and the Red Box teams at the factory, and that the umpiring would play an impor- tant part, that he waas nominated and | elected to the tns? Hé never knew until last Saturday just how an umpire feels, particularly after he had booted a few decisions. The game resulted in a victory for Jack Heath's club. despite the fact that Jack was driven *from the mound, and was succeeded by Ernfe Humphrey. The score was 17 to 16, requiring ten innings, which made it Just an added inning to the misery of |o out, pires, Bar Nixon, cf, Cruise, Boeckel, company league will also bowl.

ERKIN, Jack O'Neil pitched well, the Bup- port accorded him being bad at times, maybe. Charlle Googel, O'Neil's battery mate, was the hardest working player on the lot. Once or twice, the men- ating attitude of Charlle, toward the umplre, must have turned the thoughts of the spectators to the ¥ar East, Charlle may have had plenty of readon for getting peeved, A new athletic fund was uncovered during the Traut & Hine sheepbake last Baturday afternoon, in the per- son of Frankie Clynes, a corking good plano player, Who also sings a bit. It was at the pérsuasion of “a friend" that Frankie decided to .enter the blind man's race. Frankie won the event, getting a pearl-handled knife. Frankie was in much better shape to win a blind man's rade at the time, than any of the other contestants, And the singing, Oh Boy! it took many back to the days previous to the Volstead gloom legislation, Ernie Humphrey said after heéaring several numbers that the next plan the Ioremen's club should take up is the putting on of a minstrel over- ture. Maybe Ernie was just giving t:\]e alleged soloists at the time “the ofl.” The potato race was a hotly .con- tested affair, requiring two heats and a final. Eddie Miller was the winner of the first heat, Medwick took the second heat and in the final, Mijller was the winner. Robert Johnson won the pipe race, and it was a popular victory. Bob competed several time§ during the afternoon. Bill Brown copped the prize with a score of 99. Dr. John L. Kelly and Dr. R. M. Clark were among the invited guests to enjoy the hospitality of the Traut & Hine Foremen's club. bowling Jack O'Neil, having met with a re- verse on the dfamond, is now aching for a crack at some of his rivals on the bowling alleys. Johnny does not say much about his ability to topple the pins, but just watch his smoke from now on. Several popular indoor games were played on the veranda. When the darkness set in, ‘the party broke up. Tt's a cinch that a good time was had by all.

HATCH British Star Defeats Leo Diegel For v ¥ngland, won the open championship of the Southern Golf association here of New Orleans, Ined Saturday after New Britain’s New Hotel SEVEN REASONS WHY A NEW MODERN HOTEL WILL PAY IN NEW BRITAIN (1) A CIVIC CENTER—The people of New Britain themselves will use the New Hotel as a civic center—a place of social gatherings and also where business and civic luncheons will be held. (2) THE TRAVELING SALESMAN—As a Hardware Manufactur- ing City New Britain ranks first in America and the lines are predominant in the industry, therefore with this New Modern Hotel in the heart of our city, more and more people coming here on business will become hotel guests, because they will find hotel accommodations equal to those in any other city of our size. (3) BUSINESS CONFERENCES—With the New Modern Hotel, New Britain will be able to bring to this city business conferences which up to present have been held in Boston, New York and Hartford. These confer- ences deal directly with New Britain’s industries and can be more proper- ly carried out right here in this city. (4) CONVENTIONS—With the coming of the New Hotel, many con- ventions and conferences will be attracted to New Britain. These dele- - gates, who spend freely, will bring quite a large amount of money t6 New Britain yearly. (5) MOTOR TOURISTS—Large numbers of motorists who now do not consider New Britain as a stopping place will stop over for one or more nights, providing we increase our hotel accommodations. (6) SHOPS AND STORES—A number of up-to-date stores is part of the plan of the New Hotel—located on the ground floor; these, together with concessions, will mean several thousand dollars added to the income of the hotel annually. (7) EFFICIENT MANAGEMENT—Another reason is that an ex- perienced hotel operator will be secured to direct the operation of the new hotel. This assures economical, efficient and capable management.
