Our personal opinion, often ex- ~pressed in these columns, has been that a state football league, properly conducted would be the means of re- viving interest in the grid game here end all tarough the state. Many necessary things will have to be done before it can be made successful and the most important thing of all is to rid the game of high-priced stars. A state league with absolutely lo- cal teams would be the ideal thing for interest. The high financial ele- ment would be lacking and the sport of the game would return. This, in itself, has served to kill football in this section of the country at least. With little expense, the game would flourish and - the old-time rivalry between the cities would be found beneath the surface. Person- ally, we never cared a great deal for the games between local teams and other clubs such as the Yellow Jackets, New York Giants or other clubs, but when, last season, more than 200 fans from this city went to Bridgeport to see the locals play there, it was to us the best indication that games such as that one was were the kind that the fans wanted. In the efforts of *“Red” O'Nell end “Zip" Zehrer to get the state league started, we are absolutely in | accord and we will certainly do our best to make the affair a success. We feel that they are going about it in the right way and that if their plans are carred through, the play- ers will reelize that their former ef- forts were not unappreciated. We should like to see local boys glven the preference over outsiders and this is the ambition of those gwinging the deal. Wo also, how- ever, would like to sec Werwaiss, Tom Humphries, Donlon, Radze- wich and others who have been here year after year, given places on the team. We are enthusiastic over the prop- osition and we feel that all those in- terested in football will be with us. As the plans progress and reach the definite stage the public of this city will be enabled to feel that days 1ike those in which the old Nutmegs used to flourish, are coming back again. New Britain is a sporting city of the best magnitude and New Brit- ,min will support the right kind of football. TEAMS T0 RENEW RIVALRY IN GOLF American and British Walker Cup Squads Battle in Chicago Chicago, Aug. 29 (A—A course that is well trapped with greens perched high above the fairways and a rough that is heavy and thick s the layout at the Chicago Golf club, where the American and British Walker Cup team Will renew their rivalry tomorrow. The out nine is by far the harder of the two. Except for the first hole, which is an easy par 5 at 454 yard: every hole on the outward trip is tough. The second, W hich is only 11 yards shorter than No. 1 and par 4, must be played with a fade on the tee shot and slight hook on the sec- ond to get to the middle of the green. The third is 220 yard hole that takes a good spoon to reach the green that is trapped in three sides with a slight dip in front of the carpet. The rough to either side of the traps is heavy and thick.
