NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1923, 'NEW BRITAIN HIGH SCHEDULED TO MEET HILLHOUSE OF NEW HAVEN HERE NEXT SATURDAY—NUTMEG FOOTBALL TEAM 'NEW BRITAIN TO TACKLE AMERICAN WINNER HILLHOUSE ON SATURDAY| (OF TURF STAKES Football Teams to Meet For lar League Game For Hardware City Combination Locals Have Defeated New Haven Has Won Four—Tied For Honors Here —Battle to Be Staged In This City at Willow Brook Park. When the New Britain high and New Haven Hillhouse high school football teams meet in a Triangular League game at Willow Brook park Saturday afternoon, it will be the 14th time the teams have met as circuit rivals, The Triangular League was formed May 7, 1915 and the follow- ng fall New Haven and New Britain, always rivals, but new as far as the Triangular League was concerned, met in New Haven for the first time. New Britain won 14 to 0. The third member of the Triangular League, Hartford high was defeated by New Britain in a game played in this city later in the season. From 1915 until last year, New Britain won all its games on the New Haven f Last year New Haven scored its first victory by a 24 to 0 score in a game played there. The jinx was broken after 13 years | of play. On the other hand new Britain has been losing most of its games on New Britain fiel How- ever it won the first game between the two teams played in this city by a 7 to 6 score, but the game was rough and the victory is still ques- | tioned by the New Haven authori- ties. Protests were not recognized by the league authorities. In 1918 the next game played i New Britain was won by New Haven 710 6 and in 1920, New Haven came back again to win 7 to 0. In 1322 it scored a 13 to 7 vietory and in 1924, New Britain returned to the winning column by its 2 to 7 vic- tory. New Britain again won two years ago when it ran up a 10 to 0 victory. A complete record of the two teams as league rivals shows New Britain has acored nine victories to four for New Haven Hillhouse, New. Haven and New Britain are tied for honors in games played in this city, | each having scored three victories. ‘make the trip again next The Hardware City team’s advantage is in the games plaved at New Haven where the Red and Gold team won six and lost one. Last year the two teams met early in the season. Fach had scored two victories and confidence was high | that the New Britain team would continue the winning streak which | its predeccssors had over the Hill-! house team, but the team failed | and was swamped under a 24 to 0 landslide. | New Haven had a team made up | for the most part of boys who were | about to be graduated. This year it has only one regular backficld man, Gildea, fullback and a first substi tute halfhack, Berger, who is the sar of his team this year. There also are Angelis, the center, who is the team's star on the line and Cameranno, end. New Britain will start with four of the men who were the regulars last year. Two are in the backfield | and two in tlie fine as follows: Cap- tain Landino, quarterback and Sows ka fullback; and Casale, center and Kuhs, guard. Landino will play halfback this year. Nevulis, another regular, has been out sick, and the two halfbacks, Zaleski and Grip, bave been taken from the regular | backtield in favor of Ross and Mid- | dleton. | New Haven has a powerful line | and since the Hardware City line is ‘also very strong, there should be a terrific clash between the two for- | ward walls. Much will depend on | Frank Casale, center, to hold Angel- 18 who s depended upon open holes | for the hard-charging Gildea and | Bergin. Another threat Is New Haven for- ward passing attack which has brought it victory In its first three games against Milfred Preparatory | school, Danbury High school, and Crosby High school of Waterbury.

FOUR BOUTS HEAD CARD THIS WEEK Pete Lucci of Clinton to Battle * Al Beauregard of Hartford Hartford, Nov. 6.—Four eight- round bouts, each of them promis- ing real action, head the card for the weekly boxing show to be pre- sented Thursday night at Foot Guard hall by the Ed Hurley Boxing club. In the star-bout card is a re-match between Pete Lucci of Clinton, Mass., and Al Beauregard, formerly of Taftville and now of Hartford. Lucci and Beauregard have met three times and each of those three scraps has, been a sensational affair.

Ogden Mills of New York Leading Figure of Paris Track Paris, Nov. T (I)»—An American, J. Ogden Mills of New York, cap- turing the Grand Prix de Paris and the Arc de Triomphe stakes, the two richest fixtures of thg French turf, was the most successful owner of the flat racing season just cllosed. Upon Mr. Mills also devolved the honor of owning the acknowledged champion horse of the year. His Kantar, a nervous, high- strung son of Alcantara out of Ka- rabe, received the practically unanimous vote of horsemen as “the King of the French Turt for 1928." And Kantar did not win the Grand Prix, blue ribbon of the French tracks. A favorite in the future books to win the event, Kan- tar developed some ailment a few days before the race and his stable- !mate, Cri de Guerre, who had been trained to make the early pace for Kantar, ran to orders in the Grand Prix, made all the early pace, and forgot to stop and came on and won. There are four really big races, fixtures of the French “cing season, in which the aristocratic blue- blood of thoroughbreds may be test- (ed and which owners strive to win. They are: The French Derhy at Chantilly, the Grand Prix de Paris, the Arc de Triomphe st-kes and the Municipal Conuncil stakes, the last three all being disputed at Longchamp. Two owners divided the victories. Count de Rivaud's Le Correge was first in the Derby and his Balmoral gladdened the hearts of the Paris ldermen, who had backed his to 1 in the Municipal Council stakes. Mr. Mills accounted for the other two big races. One American, one ruled the French turf. 1t recalled the days before the war, when the late W. K. Vander- bilt was giving the Baron de Roth- child, Edmond Blanc, Achille Fould and other prominent French stablen a great race for first honors. A. K. Macomber who purchased the stable of Mr. Vanderbilt, had a rather unlucky year on the Irench turf. Ralph Beaver Strasshurger and J. E. Widener were other Amer- ican owners whose colors were prominent on Irench tracks during 1928, THREE TEAMS 0UT 10 WIN SATURDAY Syracuse, Gornell and Columbia Have Undefeated Records I'renchman, New York, Nov. 7 (#—There has been many a sad tale of the football mighty upset by the so-called weak but there arc three eastern college teams which have a particular rea- son for hoping they will esc: ignominy this Saturday. If they fail it will not be because they have not been forewarned. Syracuse, Cornell and Columbia all were subjected to some humilia- tion last fall when they got no bet- ter than a draw against Ohio Weos. leyan, St. Bonaventure and Joh Hopkins respectively. They have the same small-college rivals this Satur- day and expect, with some justific: tion, to obtain the customary re- venge. Syracuse, however, may find it much easier to wish than te accom- plish. Ohio Wesleyan, a member of the Ohio conference, has swept along at flood tide all meason, wash ing up everything, including Mich | 8an, which came within its path. Cornell and Columbia, on the oth- er hand. should find the going much easfer this year than a season ago. Cornell's array is much more i pressive than in 1927 and §t. Bon venture, beaten yestarday by Canis- ius, does not appear so strong. C Tumbia is favored to defeat Johns Hopkins by a decisive marzin These three games, of course, will not get much public attention on a day that offers such a wide variety of clashes between evenly-matched rivals.

BROWN (Associated Press Featuse Editor) Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 7 (#—Ohio State and Jowa, last year's “goats" |of the Western Conference meet ‘l\ere November 10 with a first mortgage on the title, the victor's portion. Neither team has been defeated. The game will be the last clash between Dr. John Wilce, Ohig's | coach, and Bert Tngwersen, football | tutor at Towa, whose scalps alumni so loudly demanded a year ago. Wilce retires at the end of this sea- son. A victory for cither Ohio or Towa will reduce the field of champion ship contenders. Ohio to obtain a lease on the throne would need to stop Ilinois in the last game of the season, in event the Buckeyes elim- inated Towa. Towa meets two other Big Ten teams after Ohio, Wisconsin and Michigan., Ingwersen's team has de- feated Chicago and Minnesota, and Ohio has downed Northwestern, In- diana and Michigan. The Confer- ence record of Wisconsin also is un- marred by defeat, but the Badgers pluyed a tie with Purdue.

As a result the University of Mexico may send representatives to the annual conference at New Or- leans in December of thé Nation: Collegiate Athletic association of the United States. It so it will be the first time, it 1s said here, that a Latin-American university has par- ticipated in a meeting of this asso- ciation, which has jurisdiction over intercollegiate sports in the United States and especially American foot- ball. The first American-style football teams were organized in Mexico City a few months ago and have al- ready played to Sunday crowds of more than 5,000, The game in- troduced by Mexican youths who have attended United States calleges and univebsities. The University of Mexico and the Club Deportivo, an athletic club of the capital, organized the first teams o play American-style foothail. Several high schools followed suit. The game will be extended to other schools and athletic clubs. Palmer I.

Carleton, which draws its team from a student body of 8§00, has for years held a high rank in mid-west and Minnesota State College confer- ences and now and then steps out into faster company. It was one of those practice game upsets_that the Carls gave Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg's men 12 years g0, but Big Ten teams have re- pulsed them since. Wisconsin did so in 1922 and Nogthwestern in 1925 and 1926, Coach Claude J. Hunt led Carleton to six state college championships before withdrawal to devote atten. tion to the mid-west circuit, a larger alliance with members in several states. In 1925, the first year in the new circle, the Huntmen won the cham- pionship and repeated the next year.

' New York, Nov. T (M—The fact that the Army and Notre Deme will renew their brilliant intersectional rivalry this Saturday before prob- ably $0,000 spectators in ‘the Yan- kee stadium emphasizes the ool sistently tremendous drawing power of these two elevens. Seldom do they fail to pack 'em in. It is safe to guess that many & professional promoter has viewed with envy the attraction of these schools at the “gate.” Combined, this season, West Point and Notre Dame have played before close to a halt million fans, before they wind up the 1928 campaign the ag- gregate will be nearly 900,000, an astonishing figure for twe schools that vividly indicates the great hold of the gridiron game on popular interest. Notre Dame, with a team that lacks some of the color and effec. tiveness of previous Rocknpe prod. ucts, nevertheless has not seen its drawing power diminished. If any- thing it has increased, possibly be. cause of the novelty of-seeing the Hoosiers occasionally licked, but probably because they always put up a snappy gridiron show. They beat the Navy before the greatest crowd of all time, 122,000, at Sol- dier field, Chicago, a month ago. West Point filled the Harvard and Yale arenas and will meet Notre Dame and Stanford before capacity crowds in the country’s biggest ball park. The demand for tickets for both games in New York has been such that there i{s no public sale whatever for either contest—not & chance for old John Public in spite of the fact that 160,000 tickets will be distributed. Fifteen years ago, upon the old gridiron on the West Point plains, Notre Dame began this sensational ‘rivalry with a 35 # 13 victory over the Cadets. That game also was a revolu- tionary factor in the development of the forward pass. As executive by the combination of Gus Dorais, the Hossier quarterback, and Knute Rockne, then playing end, it daz- zled the east and emphasized the new potentialities of the aerial at- tack. On the Army side was a burly linesman, Cadet Lawrence M. Jones, xov head coach, “Biff" and a pair that profited from passing lcsson they received that day. Prichard, Army quarter- back, and Merrillat, famous end, later developed into one of the best passing combinations the game has ever known. In fact Major Prichard now spends the gridiron season coaching In this speclalty at Yale, i Jones and Rockne now are among the keenest coaching rivals in the game although “BIft,” in his {third seasoff in full charge at West |Point, is a comparative newcomer to the ranks of head coaches. The score between them is even thus far, The first Army team | moulded by Jones in 1926 met its |only defeat at the hands of Notre Dame when Christy Flanagan got loose for a beautiful end run and the only touchdown of the game.
