Speaking of Sports Two impertant football games for two local footbsll teams will take piace Sunday afternoon. The senior team of the city, the Nutmegs, will be playing one of the best teams in Sthe country at Stapleton, 8. I. while the Blues will be meeting the Mo- hicans of Meriden at Willow Brook park in this cit ‘ It might net be amiss to make a plea to the fana of the city who usyally attend every Sunday game at Willow Brook park, to continue the good work and turn out to see the Blues play next Sunday. ‘The Blues are entirely and wholly & local team composed of boys who have grown up in this city. It has béen devetoped by local coaches and it deserves the support of local peo. ple. In Sunday's game, the team fa making its second appearance on the home fletd. It will furnish the only grid attraction in the city that day. The brand of football might not be consldered as good as that played by the Nutmegs but the game itself will be a spirited battle worth seeing. Fans are generally prone to turp thelr backs om a local team but at the same time to crow over the fact that too many outsiders are being used gn a local club. No team of any kind In any branch of athletics can subsist on good wishes. No better en. Joyment could be furnished that a battle on the gridiron. % The Nutmegs meet the most ®evere test of the year Sunday. With & team composed of some of the greatest football stars the country has ever known, Stapleton is awaite Ing the advent of the locals with an open and bloody maw. Manager Henry Zehrer expresses | eonfidence in the ability of his charges to score a victory over the Mtaten Island team and if determin- atlon means anything, the team will win, Bagketball is slowly and stcalthily creeping into the sporting columns every day reminding us that the in. | 4- door smeason 15 just around the corner, To most, the intense inter. est of the political campaign has detracted from the usua) following in sports but nevertheless, the cam- paign will be over next week and the same interest will return to where it started trom. To those who have sent in queries regarding roller hockey in this city, we can answer not a word. 8o far, the plans of the team owners have reached no definite form except that 8 league is to be continued this com. Ing season, A meeting to decide everything in,detail will within the next week or eo. BLIZZARD SPREADS OVER HIDDLE WEST Mississippi Valley States and Texas Feel Cold Kansas City, Nov. 2 —Driven on y tresh blasts from the arctic, & Rocky Mountain blizzard with #ce eampanying snow, rain and freezing temperatures spread farther afield into the middlewest today, threaten- log the lower Mississippi valley re- gtens with snow and nearly all of Texas with cold weather. “The outlook waus for more snow n lowa, Missouri and Nebraska and Kansas. Strong north winds swept Oklahoma, where the temperatures hovered about the freezing mark. Kreeaing weather was expected in the Penhandle and south Texas plaing, with the prediction that only the extreme southern portion of the state would escape the cold wave, which followed heavy rains. Somewhat warmer weather pre- vailed in North and South Dakota, &nd i western Nebraska, temporar- {ly releasing those sections from the bitzzard which _brought a heavy drifting snow mantle to the gras- ing country. Seow In Omaha Omaha and eastern Nebraska re- ceived the first touch of the snow last night, which followed heavy raintall over a 36 hour period. Con- tinved low temperatures with snow prevailed at Sioux City. Snowfall in South Dakota ranged from four te #ix inches while southern Minne- s6ts also was visited by snowfall. Fair but cold weather in the Rocky Mountain states today held little ‘promise of relief from the sec- ond storm of the season which had halted air mail planes, blocked high- ways, delayed trains and disrupted wire communications. More snow was predicted in a few isolated Wyoming and Montana sectiens. . Resumption of air mail service was expected today. Wyoming was covered by heavy snow, while most of Colorado was blanketed with snow ranging from two inches In Denver to several feet in the higher mountains. Near zero kemnl’!l’n prevailed in some lo- calities, y Heavy Rains All of Kansas waus visited by heavy rains and snowfall yesterday, bring- ing moisture which was welcomed Ly winter wheat growers.

It was announced there was “complete accord.” ‘The differences had arisen over two articles in the present budget. The articlew in question concerned the attribution of lands, houses, and other forms of wealth to regularly constituted religious agsoclations and dealt with credits proposed by the ministry of foreign atfairs for the establishment in France of novitiates and training schools for French for- eign missions. Radical ministers, who opposed the return of any and all religious orders and congregations, accepted the modification that such return wouyld be limited and that every case ‘would be taken up separately. 15 Hurt in Lemberg During Disturbances Warsaw, Nov. 2.—UP—Fifteen pe! were injured last night at Lwow (Lemberg) arising from a polish celebration of the defemse . of the town against Ukrainians ten years ago.

Yale-Dartmouth game was intimat- {the last three seasons who last night | |addressed the Dartmouth club of | Hartford a¢ its menthly meeting held at the Avou ' Country club, | Lane was the Righ: point sccrer in ! eastern footbyll Just year. | “I regard Bromberg and Crehan,” ! Lane told the alumni, “as the two| best guards we have had in Han- over aince 1924-25. 1n fact, they |are much better than Lyle and Sher- |man, the two so-called regular guards. Both of these “subs” will see plenty of action In the Yale game and will give the EN lines- men all they ean handle.” Speaking of . Bromberg in parti- cular Lane pald high tribute to his courage and fighting qualities, “In the Columbia game* he said, “Bromberg got his first real test. The Columbia ling weighed better than 200 pounds from - tackle to tackle, the team ‘a3 a whole was pretty cocky and was confident of Leating Dartmouth, Bromberg went into that game ws & sub and after the first three myinutes the Colum- bia line found it was up against a wall. No holes were opened through him s0 they left him alone. “But you don’t know this man Bromberg. He wasn’t satisfied with being' left alone. Time and again | he ripped through the Blwe and! tore inte the backfleld and nalled his man for a substantial loss. And you can mark my words he'll deo it Saturday! aguinst Yalp.” The Columbia game, Lant declar- ed, took a terrific toll among the Dartmouth players and rendered many of them unfit for service through the whole Harvard game. “Then came the Harvard battle,” he said, “and where Columbia left off Harvard started In. Our team ! was whipped in that game because Harvard got all the breaks and' played heads-up football all the way | through. There never was any question about who played the bet-{ ter game but despite that fact 1 believe we wuold have won had we! The | team that plays better does not al-' ways win. That ls one of the things ' that makes the game so interesting.” | The Darmouth backiield will be | a second-string affair at the start| of the Yale game, Lane stated. Lee, Sutton, Reece and Harris will be in there but Black, Marsters, Breithut | and McDonough will be on the! bench. “It is my opinien that Marstcrs will see service in the game against | Yale,” Lane informed his Msteners. | “though whether he will see much T cannot say. Breithut will also be in there for a short time. Dart-| mouth has a goed team, one that will fight hard, and stranger things have happened than to have mn-’ mouth win on Saturday. In coficlu- sion let me say that there 1s a wealth of material in Hanover. most of it in the sophomore and junior classes and that Hawley has been handicapped by finjuries. 1If that team is ever assembled free from injuries it ix going to give some-| one an awful jolt this scason and! don't forget that.” SLUMBER CHAMPIONS Man Sleeps fa Wrek; Youths in'!
