Speaking of Sports Yestorday's anneuncement that the star bout of the fit boxing shew of the indoor meason to be staged at the Btanley Arena next Tuesday night will be between Jimmie Clinch, long known in this city for his fistic prowess, and Joe Zotter, has caused more than an er- dinary ripple of excitement to travel :‘hnuh the circle of boxing fans ere. Because of the absence of boxing In this city duyng the summer months, New Britain fans for the most part, lost sight of the fact that Zotter has been winning consistently against some of the beat boys in the state. In the amateur ranks, Zotter teok his knocks with the best of them. He was kayoed in some of his bouts. He scored knocKouts in some of his victories. He won and lost as any fighter might do. Suddenly, however, he started on the winning path and he has become one of the hardest men in the state to beat at his weight, The two local boys have traveled #0 far that they are recognized as the leading contenders in the 135 pound class in Hartford county. Both have bitiens to get a chance at the state lightweight title but one or the other has to be eliminated before seeking further conquests, The bout next Tuesday night will decide the champlonship of Hart. ford county. Clifch, of course, is favored by many in this city, but Zotter has his following of friends wha consider him Jimmy's superior. Strapge as it might seem to have lightweigits in the country, there is real bad blood between the two. Clinch, of Irish stock, wants te win, whila Zotter, descendant of German ancestry, has the stolid purpose of coming through with a win, Tt looks like a great battle and predictions are being freely made that the S8tanley Arena on Church street will be filled to capacity on the return of the fight game to G0 TOPITSFIELD New Britain High Football Team Plays in Massachusetts At least two full teams and pos- sibly several ether players are to be on the New Britain High schooi football squad which i to make a trip up the Berkshire Mountains to Pittafield, Mass., where the public high achool team of that place will meet the New Britain high team. The squad will take off at 8 a'clock Saturday morning in private automoblles furnished by team fol- lowers and members of the school faculty, Inclyded in the group of aytomobiles will be several family cars. ‘The squad is practicing hard for the Pittsford game with the knowl- edge that it will be facing the hard- eat oposition of the year. Pittsfield will®e anxious to avenge the 20 to 0 defeat handed it by the New Brit- ain gridsters, Up until this game which came late in the season Pitts- field had not been defeated. New Britain will start with the same lineup used in the Pittafield game, as follows: Casale, center; Kuhs and Potts, guards; Ludinowitz and Sczmanski, tackles; Nelson and Hogdanski, ends; Landino, quarter- back; Grip and Zaleski, half backs; and Sowka, fyllback. The reserv strength will cousist of Henry Kras- zewski and Herby Carlson in "the backfield, Dumin, Gwasda, and Mi- kalauskas in the*line. One of the pubstitutes who was slated to do much for his alma mater is lost to the team for the seamon because of f{lipess.

Injuries from the scrimmage ses- sions already have begun to ham- er some of the eastern squads. ohnny Hoben, Yale quarterback, watched yesterday's drill from the sidelines but hopes to be back for the opening game. The Eils were more than repaid for the tempor- ary loss of Hoben, however, when Firpo Greene and Norman Hall, who had been kept from practice by injuries received during the summer, turned out.
