With the seore 7 to & in faver of New Haven and with less than fhe | minutes to play the New Britain Migh | school accomplished what secmed 1o be an impossible feat yesterday by beating Hillhouse high school of New Haven, 12 to 7, the result of greal runs by Zehrer and Grip, and execel lent interference by the rest of the team. This vietory yesterday gives New Rritain a jump on their rivals for the Triangular cha ship. This was the first defeat registered against Now Haven this season, In the last quarter New Britain started the trouble when they re- | covered a fumble, | Zehrer Glerochowskl plowed through an opening at tackle for one yard, Grip then ¢ ht a forward pass and gained 20 yards, The spectators | erowded on the field making it nee- | essary to call time, With 12 yards to 0 the New Haven fullback Inter- cepted a pass, and was downed in his tracks. New Haven punted. On a succession of line plunges the ball was brought back to New Haven's 10 yard line with four minutes to play. Zehrer fled around right end for a touchdown. With one point needed to tie the scbre a great phob- lem faced the team as to the surest | method to use. After a conference it was decided on reforming to try a pass instead of a line plurige. The pass went short, and with it went what looked like New Britain's last chance to tie the score or win game. On the kickoff New Haven ceived the hall. The "kick was caught on New Haven's 15 yard mark, and a few,line bucks failed to take it any further. On the third attempt a New Haven player was found off side and the team was penalized five yards, The New Haven punter standing back of his own goal line was called upon to kick out of danger. It the ball were blocked or it he were tackled in his tracks with the ball in his possession the winning points could have been scored, but re- to the #40 yard line. Quarterback “Johnny” Grip distinguished himsell here, when he grabbed the ball on the run, and with the assistance of the rest of the team, who mowed down | the opposing players one after an- othér, covered the entire distance of 40 yards, and scored the <winning touchdown with t#n seconds to play. He failed to kick the extra point, This ended the game and before they realized the fact Grip and the rést of the players were being carried abouty the fleld by the frenzied fans from New Britain. 3 The New Haven team scored their utesgof the first half. New Britain | kic] and New Haven ran the ball back 10 yards. On two successive end runs by Stevens, New Haven made it first down.

The Towa-Ohlo clash at Columbus is listed by followerk of’ the sport as a toss up, while Michigan, meeting the non-conference Michigan Aggles i3 plcked to win ecastiy, Such an outcome would leave Wis- consin, Chicago, Tilinois and Michigan all undefeated. Wisconsin later meets all three of the other teams, while Illinois has Wisconsin and Chicago still to contend with, and Michigan must deal with Wisconsin and Towa. Minnesota: has a strong, experienced eleven lined up against Wisconsin's unknown offense. Both Coach Bpauld- ing of Minnesota and Ryan of Wis- consin have played their teams so far “under wraps.” The strong Illinois team is handl- capped by injuries to hoth of its regu- lar tackles. Chicago for years has defeated Pur- due. A strong boiler-maker line is minus a backfield to make its work ef- fective on the offense, observers say, while Chicago, with Zorn, Pyott and the Thomases, will produce a power- ful attack. Both Ohio State and Jowa have strong teams, although the Hawk- eyes are handicapped with injuries to Captain Miller and Hancock, as well as Quarterback Parkin, Both of these teams having been defeated in conference contests. +SHADE BEATS WELLS.
