_ Speaking of Sports 2II2ITITILITASITILL The march on Hartford begins to- morrow. Then the All-New Britain football team will take the field to try to duplicate what the high school did to the Hartford high school team last Saturday. * Tomorrow's game between the lceal eleven and the Hartford Blues is easily the classic of the year in oI sional football circles in these | parts. In this game is shown more interest than in all the other games of the year put together. New Britain will send into the game tomorrow the most powerful Cleven to represent this city in years. It will also be a confident eleven, confident that it can take the meas- ure of the highly-touted National league team promoted by George Mulligan. The interest of the fans tomorrow will be centered on Captain Eddie Barnikow. “Barney” who swings 200-pound cakes of ice around in Meriden for’a living, has been sav- ing himselt during the past few weelks for tomorrow’s game and he i [can hardly be equalled. and If he gets an open fleld, he is as slippery a$ an eel. He can throw | forwards also with an accuracy that Eddie Hunt is speed is hard to match., another whose Give Hunt |1s through it before the fastest man |can stop him. Take “Butsy” Sturm. “Butsy” can throw forward passes like a pltcher throws a baseball and in di- recting the team, he has shown to great advantage all season long. He |15 2 dangerous man in the open fleld |and Hartford will be kept bpsy watching him tomorrow afternoon. Was there ever a fullback that could hit the line with such a solid smash as Barnikow? ‘“Get Barney \mad,” is the slogan tp make the Meriden boy play' his head off and “Barney” is mad before the game even begins tomorrow. New Britain goes to Hartford to- (morrow with a epirit more of a col- lege team than of a professional ag- gregation. Morris is back in the |fold. He wants to stack up against Hartford. “Shep” Bingham is back. He wants to play against Hartford. {Donlon is back, he aches to get |going. Tom Humphries smiles every time he thinks of the game and Joe | Rogers wants to face “Red” O'Neil. Take them all.
