Is "to Play Regularly All Sea- son—New Haven Blues Tomorrow. Of prime Interest to the New Brit- aln football fans is the positive an- nouncement that Jée Rogers, All- Connecticut center and by many re- garded as the peer of any college center in the east last fall, is to again dou an All-New Britain uni- form and will be in the local lineup against the New Haven Blues on Sunday. Rogers carly in the, season joined the squad of the Meriden National Guard team, He has played a few gamey with that outtit and has shown that in every way he is up to his last year's form. However, Joe's heart and soul, athletically speaking, is in the New Britain team and when the management sent him an S0S. this week he responded. Rog- ers told a Herald reported last night that -he has definitely made up his mind to finish the season with New Britain and stated positively that he would play with the locals Sunday. As a center, Rogers is second to none in this neck of the woods and the pivotal position is where the lo- cals have been lamentably weak all scason. Now, with Rogers holding 'down the snapper-back berth, the rest of the line and the wing posi- tions taken care of by the already welltestablished material, the de- fonse Is as near perfect as it can be made, Then with Tommy Tully and George Talbot as quarters the outfit has a combination of brains and brawn that cannot be beaten. Tully probably is faster on his ' feet and can run with the ball better than George, but in the crisis, in the pinch, then good old Talbot comes through with the brain work. Fans have noted all season how the team picks up in a crisis when Talbot takes the helm. With these two boys alternating this posiiton should cause No Worry The backfield is equally good and with Sanford to do the punting as well as share in the line plunging, the other backs will have a well earned rest and should be even bet- ter than they have been. Tomorrow's game should humdinger, Manager Max Coden of the New Haven Blues, writes the local man- agement that he is bringing to this city a well balanced club. The Blues played last Sunday at Providence, R. 1, against the ceelbrated Steam { Rollers, and the team made a very | creditable showing. The Elm City (team from all accounts were ‘the | vietims of bad “breaks” toward the {end of the game. In the Itneup will [be McHugh, Coyle and Donlin, who were with the Blues last season in the game at Hoffman's Field. In G. | sunivhn and Heerin, the Elm City club is said to have as sweet a pair of ends as any club in these parts can boast. The management will again thréw open the gates at Memorial Field free to the ladies on Sunday after- noon. It is expected that the ban- ner crowd of the season will he on hand to watch how good the locals can go with the popular Joe Rogers back at center. be a (Continued on Following Page) With two 1 past- ent in two making it wild. 10th, took a ) in the 9th inning and two out, I bagger, home, fans score in got a hit reached Cl ing on bases cd out a thr en stol 2 2,000 went Chicago failed to Welel second on putout. fingers got v 1 out the wrong W six feet head serfes and 315,000 of “Browns' a sacrifice, thi on 4 Pitcher SOUGHT AFTER AND ni a slipper . making Catcher ch dashed | wild Mike home to the THe PARTY piteh over Kelly's giving the “Browns." sports Win Thousands.
