Plainville News LITCHFIELD WINS FROM HIGH SCHOOL Lucky Forward Passes in Final Minutes Prove Decisive NURSING ~ ASSN. APPEALS Returns Are Satisfactory, But More Money is Neoeded—Mr. Ball Heads Ministers—Fodt Wins Decision— Church Notices. Lucky forward passes in the final minutes of play gave Litchfield High school a 12-0 decision over Plain- ville High on the Litchfield grid- iron yesterday afternoon, the two teams battling until the very end of the third period before either was able to break the deadlock. Litch- field resorted to the aerial game on numerous occasions, finding Plain- {| ville's line too sturdy to break or turn, After almost three periods of scoreless football a pass was tried and was apparently batted down by the alert Conlin, but the ball dropped into the arms of 1 Litchfield player and caromed out into those of an- other, who raced to the eight-yard |line before King tackled him. This “break” put Litchfield in scoring position and it carried the ball over as the period ended. The second touchdown was scored in somewhat similar fashion when there were but three minutes of play remaining. Plainville gained consistently through Litchfield's line but could not push the ball over, being held oft twice on the ten yard line. Off tackle and around end the local backs made good-sized gains, while King and Gauthier fooled Litchfield com- pletely with their crossbucks and made ten yards at a clip on several attempts. Few forward passes were attempted by Plainville, as its aerial game has not yet been developed. The Plainville line showed its su- periority and on two occasions stop- ped the home team within the ten- yard line. Plainville line dup as follows: Hib- bard, re Wegner, rt; Buell, rg; Smith, Bloom, Ig; Downham, It; Berry, McGibbon, le; King, qb; Con- lin, Halstead, rhb; Halback, Ihb; Gauthicr, (Capt.), fb.

The situation in Bristol was ana- lyzed by the candidate. ligures in- dicated, according to his statement, that out of every 100 voters in the city of Bristol, there were 40 known as republicans, 30 as democrats and 30 as independent voters. He urg- led the workers not only to attempt Nrs. | to hold the 30 democratic voters in line but also to secure at least two out of three of the independent votes, which would enable the dem- ocratic ticket to break at least even on election day. The straw vote, now being taken by a magazine according to Mr. Kopplemann, indicated that out of 4,500 in Connecticut who had an- nounced their intention of voting for 8Smith on November 6, 2,200 stated that they had voted the dem- ocratic ticket four years ago and 2,300 who had voted the republican ticket at the last national election said they would vote the democratic ticket this year. This was pointed at by the speaker as a favorable sign and would indicate “a demo- cratic landslide.” Raps Republicans “The republican party claims to be the party of prosperity,” continued the speaker, “but they have reached the extreme of their lying argu- nments when they talk about luxury wages. When Coolidge came into oftice, Hoover wag chairman of the committee appointed to investigate the employment situation. He (Hoover) s&aid that to number of unemployed at three and one-half million would be placing it at the highest figure. Today by ac- tual count made by the department of labor, those figures are over 4,- 000,000, In other words there are more people out of work today than when the republican party went into office.” Mr. Kopplemann drew for audience a word picture of Coolidge's debut into the field of en- deavor. “When he entered that his large yellow building in New Haven ‘r‘u(onmblle which she was operating accompanied by a guard or a valet, there were, according to statistics on record, over 2,000 men. with families dependent upon them, who were out | of work in the city of New Haven.
