of Sports * The Plainville Blues football team is without a game for S8unday and would like to hear from any man- ager for a contest either in Plain- ville or on the road. The Blues were scheduled to play the Echoes Q¢ Meriden but the Silver City team @ancelled the engagement last night. Gharles Diggle is the | Plainville manager and he can be reached by telephone. New Britain football fans a pressing disgust at the ac the Hartford Glants' manager in securing a lineup of stars for the second game with the Nutmegs of this city Sunday. Evidently, it is the same old story—Beat New Brit- ain at any cost. Some years ago, the manager of a Hartford team spent more money than he received at the gate so that he could put a team on the fleld that would beat New Britain. Man- ager Brett of the Giants is doing nearly the same thing for this Sua- day's game, New Britain hasn't added any extra men to the squad for Hart- ford. The Nutmegs will take the field practically the same as they did three weeks ago and it is our guess that New Britain will win re- gardless of the Grahams, Rooneys or others who will play with Hart- ford. The Giants want to sign Johnny Grip for their backfield. New Brit- ain used him last Sunday. 1f Grip plays with Hartford, New Britain's signals will have to be changed. This thing of playing with a team 8!l season and then in a ecritical vies for the state championship. loading up with stars, to us takes all the good out of a game. Bhoutd Hartford win Sunday, and, of course stranger things than that have hap- pened, we can’'t see how the, Giants can claim the victory. To be conducted rightly, ‘the teams as they played all season ahould be stacked up against each other in a series. Because one team wins the first game is no reason why the other tcam should change its entire lineup. “Zev"” Graham hasn't been play- ing football this scason. He has beecn coaching all along and has kept himself in good condition. Playing one game a scason, however. isn't going to keep a man sharpened up to what the fans will expect of him. Graham isn't even going to prac- tice more than once with Hartford. He has the signals and plays on pa- per and may he able to dope them out all right that way. Their actual nse under fire will be a totally dif- ferent thing, however, We understand that Mann will referee again this coming Sunday. Tt that is the case, the managers of the local team have certainly been aslecp on the job. We have often wondered what right a team other than the home club had in select- ing the officials. Two @f the best and most popu- lar roller hockey players in the gir- cuit are lost to the game for & con- sideruble period. “Bib" Boucher, star forward on the local team suf- fered a broken leg last Saturduy and he will be away from the game for at least four weeks. He was in training when the accident happeu- ed. He was jumping a fence and turned on his leg. Art St. Aubin, forward on the Hartford tcam has just been cper- ated on for hernia. He will be out for at least three weeks. AMERICANS TAKE TITLE IN RUMANIAN NET MEET For the First Time in Ten His- tory Mixed Doubles Titles Comes to This Country. Bucharest, Nov. 16 (P—For the fidst time in the history of tennis in Rumania, the mixed doubles cham- plonship is held by Americans. Mrs. Robert R. Patterson. of Ann Arbor, Michigan, and John H.

After a few minutes of scrim- mage, Ritter was placed in the reg- ular lineup at center, displacing “Red" Hattings. Hattings was mov- ed back to guard and Mirza was temporarily relegated to the second team, but Mirza and Anderson are still neck-and-neck for the one suard position open. The Juniors will open their season next Thurs- day with the Celtics, while on Thurs- | day, December 6. they will play the Mohawks.
