" their NEW BRITAIN ™ " . DAILY "HERALD, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1922, MALONE’S HERCULEAN EFFORT TO SCORE A TOUCHDOWN FOR NEW BRITAIN TEAM IS SPOILED BY LACK OF JUDGMENT IN GAME YESTERDAY ~—*“BOTS” BRUNNER LEADS COLLEGE SCORERS ON GRIDIRON THIS SEASON.— NEW BOWLING LEAGUE STARTS—SHAMROCKS DEFEAT REDLANDS & TOUGH BREAR COSTS NEW BRITAIN A WIN Penalty Spoils Chance for a Touchdown Against West Sides The New Britain eleven and Wast Bide A, C. team of Hartford battied t0 another scoreless tie yesterday aft- erpoon at Clarkth field, before a big erowd of fans, about equally divided between the two cities, While the New Britaln team did not win, the followers of the club enjored watch- ing them outplay the Wesk dide eleven in every departmept of game, It was not until the fourth period, that the Hartford team manes~ad to invade New Britain territory, ana on hoth of these occasions it was due to long for- ward passes, Murphy to Gilroy.and Murphy to Leary. TheNew Britaln team had the bal! in' the Hartford territory several times. Four attempts were made to kick goals from placements and drop kicks and all proved failures. A tough break of luck occurred in the third period when Malone blocked one of Murphy's kicks and carried the ball 2o the one-yard line, but on account of Rogers breaking the rules, the bhall ‘was brought back to the 15-ym-vll line, after a touchdown was in sight. New Britain Plays Well Every player on the New Britain iam is deserving of credit for his showing vesterday, The line, which is easlly one of the hest that has ever layed “pro™ football in this section, eld like a stone wall on all occasions and this caused Murphy to keep boot- ing the ball most of the afternoon. e did not meet with much success in. trying to out-kick Captain Barni- kow, of the New Britain team. My, This Pair Can Run Jimmy Conley and Al Blanchard were like a pair of greyhounds, and getting down under punts brought forth praise from even the Hartford fans. Time and again, Gil- roy and Murphy, who were playing 'k, were downed by either Jim or as soon as they had caught the ball. In the second period, Blanchard nearly got away with an interce;®:d pass. ‘Had he held it, it would have resulted in a sure touchdown. The tall bounced out of his hands just as he was starting for the Hartford goal Jine. In the third period, Conley recover- ed a fumbled punt that Kearney drop- d on his own 15-yatd line, but an attempt at placement kick went wide. Peterson at Quarterback The backfleld worked like a charm, Peterson who played his first game of the season at quarterback, made several good runs after catching the ball on punts. Frankie Barnlkow al- 80 ripped and rammed his way through the line for substantial gains. Captain Barnikow gave one of the best exhibitions of punting of the sea- son. Dewey Carpenter at last played | & whole game for New Britain and is entitled to stand with the heroes of the game. Blocking forward passes and tackling on the defensive were;| Carpenter’s strong points. - He also made ‘several good gains through the line in the third period. Malone, Frankel, Nealon, Politis and Rogers withstood attacks on the line without| budging, with the result that Hart- ford gave up the joh early in the game of advancing the hall that way. No Subs Used Every member of the New Britain team who started the game, finished not a substitution being made. Sev- eral of the Hartford players were taken out because of injuries and oth- er cause. Cummings, who started the Kansas City team of the American as- |15 made a conspicuously season with the New Britain team, leaving to play with the West Side A. C., lasted just one play. Catching a punt in the first period, he was down- ed by Conley and when he “‘came to" he was being carried off the field by fellow players. Little Forward Passing The New Britain team did not re- fort much to the open style of play, depending entirely on the hackfield men to advance the ball. In the mat- ter of first downs and yards gained, Captain Barnikow's men had it all over their opponents. The celebrated Johnny Gliroy of Georgetown fame, dld not set the world on fire hy his work and “Murphy,” a college player. was a joke when it came to punting. Many of his kicks did not travel over 20 yards and they usually went out of hounds at midfield. “Red” Leary, left end of the West Sides, after get- ing a forward pass for a 35-yard gain Schaefer and Hoppe Meet Tomorrow Night New York, Nov. 20—~The tournament for the 18.2 balkline championship of the world, which has been in progress dur- Ing the last week In the grand ballroom of the Hotel Pennsyl- vania, will close tomorrow night.

Cambridge, Mass, Nov. 20.—The Harvard football team , started toda: on the four days' drive for the final match of the year at New Havep Sat- urday. The inability of the varsity to beat Brown with a line-up which a bitter disappointment. Coach Fisher used regulars instead of saving them, because he figured a victory would re- vive the team’s spirits which when. the Crimson was beaten Princeton. Harvard gets some con- solation in the fact that the team would have won had not a touchdown been lost because of a holding penal- ty, and the Cambridge team was not more impressive than it had been the previous week against the Tigers. Captain Buell will be out this week, but Owen and. Chapin, backs, and on the left wing, who were not used Saturday, will start with the regular line-up. The Brown game was costly in t)mt1 Henry Grew, right guard and one of the most aggressive and powerful men on the line, was so seriously infured that there is no possibility that he can play at New Haven. Grew tore some ligaments in his leg so badly that an operation was necessary. Phil Coburn, who is Harvard's best | all-around defensiVe back, was injured again, He has been out much this season, the last time for several weeks, and there is much doubt about his being available in the bowl this week.

Most of the players will be kept at the college infirmary in- stead of thelr dormitory quarters dur- ing the week In order to escape cam- pus distractions and at the same time attend every scheduled recitation. Praise the Tigers. Among the Yale players, Princeton's play and players were warmly praised. and the deft toe work of Ken Smith coming In for hearty appreclation.

Princeton teams have upset the always unreliable dope 0 frequently in late years that the unexpacted has come’ to he expected of them, The 1922 eleven simply cars ried on the principle. It evidently be- lieved that if one game could be won by surprise tactics, every game might he 80 won. As a result this year's Tiger eleven finizhed the season with eight victories wnd no defeats. The 1022 eleven has been called a team of destiny, an op- portunist team, a crazy team; all of which by way of saying that it had above all else the will to win, Roper told the Tigers that “a team which won't be beaten can't be beat- en,' and they believed fit, Spirit and « willlngness to take chances are as much a part of foot- ball as first downs and forward passes. In fact given anything like an equal opportunity, inspiration will win more games than sheer nigchanical perfec- tion. The Tigers hhave proved the truth of this so far as the 1922 season is concerned, and that's why it is cele- brating its first Big Three title in 11 |years, Let all credit be theirs. o much for the victorious side of the game, Had Everything But Victory Even in defeal Yale proved that it had one of the finest teams in its his- tory, and that is just about as fine a compliment as can be paid. The Blue pad éverything Saturday but victory, So far as the mechanics of football go, Yale outshorie Princeton in every | départment of the game except tackl- ing and forward passing. The Bull- dog flashed a powerful offense and defense, particularly the former, de- spite the fact that it falled to count for them, If Tad Jones can perfect |an aerial attack during the present week Harvard will meet a team with- out a weakness next Saturday, and one of the greatest games ever played in .the east should result. b A Big Surprise That Harvard lost to Brown in the greatest upset of last Saturday’'s play may mean much or little. As was seen in the Princeton game the Crim- son is not at'its best without Captain Buell and that doughty little player gat in the stands a the Princeton-Yale contest while his team was being beat- en by the Rhode Island eleven.
