1 | | ldett tackle, “ Speaking ! f Sports ; TS RS S s s Harttord stands the victor in the first game between the Blues and All-New Britain playsd yesterday afternoon at the Velodrome in East Hartford. However, it is our opinio; that the better team lost the gam Some won't agtee with us which 18| natural, but a majority of the New | Britain fans, even those who lost money on the game yesterday, are patistied that New Britain will pro- bably get the breaks in the second game on December 12 and the situ- ation will be reversed. A statement like this, that Hart- ford won the game through lucky | “breaks” for them, seems like an alibl for Nedw Britain’s defeat, but no allbis are being given by the lo-} cals. The facts of the case were that Hartford's two scores came as a di- rect result of two lucky breaks while New Britain, with four clear chan- ces to score and a chance to score another posaible chanco for & touch- down, couldn’t get the impetus to send the runners across the line. It was a flercely fought contest. Donlin, the “Big Boy” from New Ha- ven bore the brunt of the attack from the start. It was Hartford's plan to smash through New Britain's but “Willle Stevens' crashed them back and back until he was worn out. Coach Hayes re- lieved him by sending in Conklin and this boy played a “sweet” game all through. ‘Eddle Hunt with a clear field, aft- er running through the entire Hart- : ford team on the kickoft, was tripped | by his own interference and couldn’t | get off the ground to make a touch- down. This was the worst break !or‘ New Britain, Collins fumbled twice, but more | than made up for these with his sen- | sational playing. He was easily the | star of the New Britain team though | Jiis mates were giving everything | they had in the game. | Eddle Hunt i the fastest thing we hava ever seen in football shoes. At one stage of the game, he was away | over on the south side of the fleldy| | and away to the north, a Hartford man seemingly got clear of New Bri- | tain. Hunt made the distance 6o fast | | that no one saw him go. He stopped | and the space allotted to the sport | the runner. Had he been in the game on the | forward pass that gave Hartford its an importance in the minds of both | xrojeo1m 2, likely that | touchdown, it is very Hartford would have been stopped |of cither—particularly the latter.

The second game of the series will | veledrome in East | | Hartford, Sunday afternoon, Decem- ber 12. The official report on the attend- ance at the game was issued last night and stated that 4,500 people had pald in to see the game. This very small crawd for a Martford- New Britain contst bears out the con- tentfon that the Hartford fans do not patronize their own team. As an Indication of the truth of this assertion, we may say that Pat-| sy Bridgett sold close on to 2,000 tickets in his smoke Shop on Church | street to New Britain fans while ful- | ly half or more than half of the crowd on the Hartford = side were| trom New Britain. } Flad the Iartford sports turned out like the New Britain crowd did, the game would have been an im- mense succoss financially for both teams. As it was, the crowd was bet ter than the usual attendance at the Hartford games this season ‘but went far below the expectations of every- one. This, we think, is an argument in favor of bringing a Hartford to New Britain in future ye course, there isn’t any place in this city that could satisfy the promotery in staging the game here, but it New Tiritain fans are going to be required | year after year to go to Hartford to | see the games, drive their cars there, | pay their railroad or trolley fare| there, and, to top it all, form the | biggest portion of the tpectators to see the game, then it is only right that they should have the honor of entertaining the Hartford team as| visitors in New Dritain. 1 Almost everyone seems to feel | that the offictals in the game yes-| terday did a very efficient job. Ref- erce Halloran deserves pralse for | his work in exacting penaltles for | rough playing and all in all, the of- | ficials conducted the game as nearly | pertect as could bo done. | Most of the New Britain fans, ex- | copt a few disgruntled ones who | can't see the New Britain feam any- way, are eatisfied that New Britain stands ace high over the Hartford team and this will be proved in the sccond game, they One of the officlals of the game when in the office after the contest was all over, was asked his opinion | of the game and in the presence of Messrs, Miseott, Byrne, Mulligan and Curley, sald “The better team lost the game today. Well, after all is said and done, between the two weeks {ntervening there will be enough materfal for arguments for cveryone. One thing that brought a smile to our dour countenance yesterday was | the smart play of Thompson'a on a “fair catch” of a punt. Just befare | the punt came _down, Thompson signalled: for a fAlir catch and Grat- \ | dent will not occur. PARKER IS NOW | convert to #he English game of rug- | game, remaining in Chicago for the ton O'Connell sailed through the air for a tackle and Thompson simply pulled back and pointed to Gratton on the ground and the referee nodded his head. Fifteen yards were taken off Hartford's territory for this little offense and O’Connell was it to be tled. The Inter-Church league crgwd Saturday night suffered from a bit of rather poor sportsmanship. The First Lutherans were,unable to se- cuyre the Central Baptists of Hart- ford for the proposed exhibition pre- liminary game and signed the Em- cralds of this city as opponents in place of the team from the capital. At the last minute the Emeralds were glven an opportunity to meet the Burritts at the ' armory and walked out of the Y. M. C. A. In quest of the bigger fame. This left the Swedes without opponents and the crowd witnessed but one game, having to wait some time for this.
