A review of the past season is nothing over which the mapagement can boast, The team turned in a number of corking good games, but at the same time off-set those by a number that were equally terrible, Financlally however, the manage- ment has no great occasion to howl. All of which reverts back to the oft repeated assertion that profe slonal football {s simply an exhibi- tion of football and not playing of football, T'ootball is a hard and more or less strenuous game. Play- ers playing for the love of the sport and fired by spirit for their school or club, will put & vim and dash Into thelr work that cannot be in. duced otherwise, A burich of 11 more or less unac- quainted men called a team and playing simply because at the end of the game they get pald cannot put up the spirited contest that the others can, The Hartford Dixics whipped the Terryville Legion 25—~18 last night, The Legion is here Saturday night, The Beavers of South Manchester nre anxious to book games locally, especially with the Boys' club.
