'?fieukln' of Sports A large number of New Britain people are planning to attend the Fordham University-Boston College football game in Beston, Mondsy. Besides the slumni who are in this city, many others are deeply interest, ed in secing “Tubby” Beloin in ac. tion. According te the latest reports, the Atias A. C. of New Haven 1Is planning to have a basketball team in the field this yepr. This decizion was reached at a8 recent meeting after it had previeusly been decided that the team woyld not be in com- petition this year. The members of the club figuring up the heavy expense encountered last year in the use of outside play- ers; felt that it would be foolish this Scasen to try to carry the heavy pay roll of former years. Then, n looking over the lists of members, it was found that the Atles could do nearly as well with its home town tulent as it did with outsiders. 80, with Bammy Zeke Chadys and others, as a team nucleous, the club decided that it would cnter the state competition as in former ycars. To managers about the state, this is welcome news because, without & doubt, as far as New Britain is con- cerned, the Atlas team is one of the biggest drawing cards of the year. It will be just as big an attraction with its team this year as it lu been in the past. The Meriden Endees appear to be the biggest threat of the state ®n the basketball horizon so far. With Jerry Conway, Cohen, Billy Cook, “Red” Lingner, Rothstcin and sev- | Ward eral other court leaders already sign. ed, the Bilver City quintet will be among the strongest combinations in the fleld. Manager Joc Carroll of the Bris- tol Endees has reported that his team will be better and bigger than ever this coming season and he warns that Bristol will have to be reckoned with in the final analysis &8 to chances for the state basket. ball title. New Britain, under the direction of Manager Clarence Lanpher, will form a strong combination. With a large squad of candidates to pick from ,the local pilot should have as strong a combination as any in the state. Much interest is being display. ed in the announcement that McElwain, former Ft. Wayne man will be a candidate for a place on the quintet. He is regarded as one of the best players in the American league of last year and he was one of the highest scorers. He should be & good addition to any team. . Tom Leary will be in & peculiar fx flext week. With the local pro- fessional basketbull season opening up, Leary will be playing guard on the”New Britain team while on the | next day, he will be wearing the spangles of Hartford on the foot. |L Lall field. Thus the fortunes of sport sway first one way and then anothe Leary was with New Britain in foot- ball and baskeiball last year. He is with Hartford in football this year but he will be back with New Brit. Pite, Gubersky, |, WITH THE BOWLERS | s ALLEYS BOGER! UNIVERSAL CLUB LEAGUE Finsss 8chmelter .

The unusual situation was brought about when a group of Indiana citizens enjoined the state from spending moncey for the bridge. They contended the river had changed its coursc and that a bridge at this point on the river would be on Kentucky soil. Kentucky was forced to file suit against the citizens and Indiana te compel the complctioin of the bridge project. © Action by the United States supreme court will end the controversy. For many ycars there has been a | clamor in Indiana and Kentucky for a bridge at Evansville, which\s on one of the most popular high- ways for north and south traffic, The structure would cost $4.000,000. The states wrangled over each other's burden. Kentucky at one time held that Tndiana should bear more than half the cost because the river was on the Indiana side. De. fore that could be settled the Ohlo shifted to the Kentucky bottoms. In 1925 Indiana approved pay- ment of half the cost and a year later Kentucky assented.

Fatal to New Havea Boy Physicians are baffled by the mal- ady which brought on the death of Robert Stock, New Haven Hillhouse High school football player, who died yesterday on the eve of the game with New Britain High, scheduled for today. The football game was postponed, but negotiations have practically been completed to have it played a week from today in this city, Stock was an honor student at the school as well as a member of the team, He was injured in Crosby- Hillhouse game on October 12, but the injury affected only his knee, but luter an epidemic of boils spread through the team and also broke out on Btock. The boils were caused by lime markings on the field, it is thought. Twg doctors attended. Stock and both stated that medical science could not determine the malady which caused Stock's death. Wednesday Stock's condition -be- came so critical and his vitality reached such a low ¢bb that a trans- fusion of blood was declarcd necés- sary. Several comrades gallantly of- fered to undergo the operation and | after scveral tests the blood of Ed- ward Hendrie was found most satis- factory. Nearly a quart of blood was transfused on Thursday and Stock rallied. Yesterday Thomas Arono- witz, a fellow football pla: walk- ed into the hospital and offered his blood. The second transfusion was made but Stock died at 12:3) o'clock yesterday afternoon. Funeral services will be held at Lis home, 174 Goffe Terrace, New Haven, tomorrow aftermoon at 1 o'clock. New Britain will be repre- sented at the funeral by Coach George M. Cassidy and Captain Louis Landino, ‘ro will take with them a floral wreath from members of the New Britain High school squad. The local high school will also end & floral wreath. This action was decided upon by Princi P. Slade after he had received the recommendation of athletic authori- ties at the school, ' 2 CROWD Pawhuska, Okla,, Nov, 10, (#—J. | E.

They are known as “khevsurs,” or “People of the Valley,” in Georgian | dialect, and their chief occupation is goat and sheep grazing. | To reach their country takes a' precipices and over mountain streams, exposed to attack by band- | ita. The “khevsurs” call themselves Christians, but appear to be & strange mixture of Christians, Mo- hammedans and pagans. They keep the Sabbath of the Christian ehurch the Friday of the Moslems and the Saturday of the Jews. They guard their country with | ferocious jealousy againat encroach- ment by nelghboring tribesmen and | which the “khevsurs” appear in the field in ancient coats of mail, with steel helmets, and armed with lances and an occasional old muzzie loading rifle. They live in small two-story, flat- roofed, stone houses, the upper story | serving as living quarters for the family {n summer, and the story be- | low in winter. The sheep and goats occupy the story which is fre cording to season. Family feuds are common, and often a whole sets out to wipe out an insult offer by another. On the other hand, the “khevsurs” are noted for their hos- pltality, great veneration of their ancestors and national heroes and pride in their armour. They are also said to be highly moral.

ANIMAL STOWAWAY COMMON ON PLANES Long Distance Flights and Para- chute Jumps Made Washington. Nov. 10 (P—Tail Wind,” boasted as the only pup to make a non-stop flight from coast to coast by the owner and pilot of the “Yankee Doodle,” has had plenty of rivals in the way of real aviator animals. “Tail Wind” was a with tooth picks for legs match for a tail. But air corps records here show that not only have live animals flown long dis- tances in planes, but they have even made parachute jumps. “Ring.,” dog mascot of the Air wrvice Mechanics school at a Kelly San Antonio, once made a parachute jump from a height of a thousand feet. He had a special Larness fitted on him. A sergeant “hot and a often indulge in bloody battles, in | puljeq the rip cord just as the dog | ideals. He sct up dropped into space. The parachute opened beautifully and “Bing” float- ed gracefully to earth, alighting in the arms of the lieutenant who had raised him from a pup. He set up a joyful and excited barking as though to tell the world about the | feat he had just accomplished. The twenty-second photographic ction of the air corps adds to the aviators’ bed-time stories account of three Kittens fore they were found in the fuse- lage of the planc. The mother cat had evidently considered it a good safe home for the Kittens. Rtecords also show that dogs, | frogs, goats, mice and snakes have made aerial journeys in the cock- pits of planes sometimes to the great annoyance of pilots who have discovered the live freight after the plane has taken off.

With his passing has gone one of London’s most picturesque char- acters of a bizarre street where stalls for seccond hand goods deal in everything from a slightly used toothbrush to a second hand ele- | phant. Rumble began work before hc was 10 years of age in the brass- moulding trade, but soon developed lan urge to buy and sell all manner !of useful things. | He struck out in business while still a youth, mo than half a century ago, as a trader n dry goods. reet trading was at that time con- |fined to matches and penny toys. Most of those enguged in it were really beggars. | Walter Rumble ov. 10 M—Walter Rum- ather of Petticoat Lane, had broader his first atall in | Berwick street. Soho, outside a !chapel, having obtained permission | from the minister. | Almost any houschold necessity |could be bought at his stall more |cheaply than in the shops. The |stall soon prospered and became the center of a busy mart. Rumble's success was largely due to his wit and personality. He was famed as the best “tale-teller” in the trade, even when he retired two years ago. Others followed in his trail; "the | country imitated London; and thus the “tale-telling” method of selling in Petticoat lLane and elsewhere has become famous.
