Roller hockey will get off to a start in the coming season in this ¢jty mext Thursday night when the eorganized New Britain team, led “Kid” Williams, former Meriden s@r rush, swings into action at the Igmoy Arena on Church street. €A special meeting of the man- rs of the various teams in the cuit was held in the Hotel Stan- ley’ Wednesday afternoon. At that tighe, because of the failure of the }z.rtlord board of aldermen to pass an ordinance allowing hockey on Sunday, Owner Harry Starkie of Hartford, was given permission to locate his club in another city. Manager Btarkie had completed negotiations for the wuse of Foet Guard hal twice a week. One of fhe dates was Sunday afternoon but because there is nothing in Hart- ford that would allow him to play g the Sabbath, it is likely that 1 e will he no roller hockey seen ig Hartford until after Christmas, JAn investigation is being made ut: tfe present time by league officiaw igte conditions in Fall River and New Bedford.

By FRANK GETIY (United Press Sports Lditor) New York, Nov. 30 (UP)—The close race for the championship of the Western Conference this season is reflccted in the “All Big Ten" | football team for 1428, named today by the United Press upon the rec- odimendation of 20 coaches of the middle west who have watched thes pByers in action.

Fessler of Ohio State was one of the greatest ends in the country this year. a wing man of extraordinary ality who could do just about | everything required and do it well. | His tackling, covering of punts, and 1eeeiving of passes was said by crftics to be close to perfection for lige play.

Bennet* of Indiana was a hard hitting halfback who, caused untold difficulty to his conference opponents with his smashing drives and twisting runs. Glasgow of lowa would make him an ideal running mate. It was Glasgow who stepped in to prove as good a halfback as there was in the middle west to- wards the end of the season, after ithe fame of Chief Mayer McLain, the vaunted Hawkeye fullback, had dwindled somewhat. Hoimer of Northwestern, highly recommended by every conference comch, com- pletes a backfield which would take a lot of stopping. Ony two “Big Ten" teams failed to land men on the United Press eleven. Purdue had “Pest” Welch, a great back, who ranked right up with those selected, but Chicago had no ene this vear, the Mareond tosing every Conference game they played. Other great backs ef the Confer- ence were Lusby of Wisconsin, ef whom Knute Reockne spoke with warm praise, Chief McLain and !Cuisinier, the clever Wisconsin quar- terback, one of the brainiest flel1 generals in the mid-west. Barrart of Ohio and Conry of Wisconsin were great centers who were just nosed out by Randolpn. ALUMNY SHAMPS HIGH REGULARS “Tools” Politis Makes Two Long Gallops for Touchdowns [ Runs of 92 yards, 98 yaras, 58 vards and 40 yards, mixed in with several sensationsl plays, featured the victory of the High school alum- ni over the regulars yesterday morn- ing at Memoriul field M Willow Brook park. Expecting an easy vie- tory, the High scheol eleven was taken completely by surprise when, after battling through the alumni defense to the cight yard line, “Toots” Politls, star end of the Fordham university team, intercept- | «d a forward pass and with thé #peed of a half back, dashed 92 sards for {he touchdown. This start- cd the alumni off and before the Kame was over, the grads had scored four touchdowns to two suspicions ones by the High school. In the five annual meetings be- tween (he regular teams and elevens recruited from the alumni, the alumn- ni now have the edks of onc game over the Red and Gold. - Two games vesulted in ties while cach had won a game proviously to yesterday's contest. Politis acceunted for two touch- Gdowns by the alumni. He caught a forward pass from Gennette on the High school's 42 yard line and dash- ed fhrough the entire High school sccondary defense across the Hne. In the sccond period, Gordon snap- ped up a High school fumble and raced 40 yards with the speed of the wind across the line. Then in the final quarter, “Turkey” Claire tosséd a pass to Johnny Grip for 10 yards and another score. The High school scored its géals when Billy Ross took a kickoff on his own two yard line and raced through the entirc fleld for a score. Many “almost” tackles were made but Ross covered the entire distance without being touched. Mike Grip made a dash through tackle just be- fere the game ended, reversed his feld and tore 40 yards to the scc- nd score for the High school. A fairly large crowd turned out fo watch the game. In the last quarter, a real comedy of errors was enzcted but on the whele, the game was interesting. The alumni cleven showed plenty of stuff and be- cause of its aleriness, it goe a jump on the regulars which could not be overcome.

VIBLETS BOW 10 New York U, Chemph Hopes Severely Jolted New York, Nov. 30 (UP)—The reputation of castern football as far as gridiron fans of the far west are concerned, lies in the hands ef the Army. ‘The pride this section always has held in the brand of football played along the Atlantic seaboard, receiv- ed a severe joit yesterday when a white clad team from Oregon state invaded the Yankee Stadium here and completely outelassed the New York University eleven, 25 to 13. 8huld Army fall before the attack of Leland Stanford on the same field Saturday, any respect the far west may have held for eastern football will have waned consider- ably. A Stanford victory might even cause eastern fans to wonder if they were not a bit too proud of foothall as they know New York University is recogniz- ed by the majority as champions of the east. Army might make the same claim without great dissension inasmuch as their only defeat of the season came at the hands of Notre Dame, 2 middle western team. 5o there can be no doubt but that the coast teams are pitted against the best this section has to offer, The New York team which lost to Oregon yesterday was a tired ono, wearied by a strenuous schedule and by a most gruelling game with Car- negie Tech only a few days previ- ous. Ken Strong. brilliant Violet half- back whose berth on the mythical All American team seems assured, faltered repeatedly yesterday ani failed to displ: the brilliant run- ning ability which made him out- standing this fall. Aside from one or two flashes when he evaded Ore- gon tacklers to pile up substantial yardage, he seemed to be dogged by the same listlessness that marred the play of his teammates. Only his kicking remained to re- mind the crowd of his brilliance at Carnegie Tech. He booted fhe ba'l repeatedly deep into Oregon terri- tory to force back, temporarily, the threatening wave that was to en- gulf the Violefs. At the outset of the game the New York ecleven looked lke the team that swept the cast. Only a few minufes after the start of the game Stroug broke loose for a long run which placed the ball near scoring position. A few plays later Beryl Kollet, Violet fullback, crash. ed over for the first touchdown. Strong added the point. Then the visitors took the situa- tion ‘info théir own hands and the cheerfulness of the Violet fans abated. Only a few minutes elapsed in the second quarter before Sherwood smashed through to the goal from the two yard line for the first Or gon score after the visitors had made repcated threats on the New York goal. A second was scorcd with dispatch, Gilmore carrying the ball from the six yard marker. Before the half ended the Aggics had counted a third, McKalip ta ing a pass from Gilmore behind his own goal. Maple added an extra point to this one. Thé fourth touchdown came in the third quarter with Hughes scor- ing. This brought the score to 25 to 7 and it appeared not at all ur- lik¢ly that Oregon would add still more to its total. New York U. braced, however, and succceded in warding off fur- ther attacks on its goal. Shortly be- fore the final whistle Strong slipped ovér the line for the sccond Violet score after a series of successfvl plays had placed the ball in posi- tion. The New York team was visibly tired but it is certain that the Vio- lets at {heir best would have found difficulty in stopping the Orcgon tecam they met yesterday. The westerners’ use of the pass— lateral or forward—was highly ef- fective. and the white-clad backs often found large holes in the Violet line. After the game the Stanford team came down from the grand- stand and spent an active few min- utes in their street clothes. passing the ball ahout and running signals. Pop Warner watched them critically for a time and then hustied them back to the Westchester Country club where they are stay ing. The Army meets Stanford unives sity on the same field that witness the New York downfall. A victory for the Cadets will be the one chanee the east has of regaining the gridiron respect of the far west PROVIDENCE KEFPS LEAD IN NATIONAL GRID LOOP Steary Rolers Score Thanksgiving Day Victory Over Pottsville By 7 (o 0 Score.

The local team upset the dope I completely by making its victory so decisive although every player had to travel at top speed all the way to make the result as complete as lit was. Mainly through the work ef | Leary, Sheehan and Zakzewski in | keeping their men in control en tha | floor, was the Meriden quintet kept subdued. Teary kept Cook score-| less from the floor, Zakzewskl pre-{ vented Conway from scoring a| |basket while Sheehan held Jack | Rothenfeld, former Columbia star. to one goal. Sloman, werking like a beaver all | !through the game, flashed the form that has made him one of the most feared point getters on Connecticut baskethall floors for several measons. He popped in five baskets, the mu- jority of them being difficult shots from angles away from the baske!. Jimmy Zakzewski, playing with his usual dash and fire, outgeneraled Jerry Conway and scored four fleld gdals while Conway failed to sink even a single hoop. New Britain's team work was ex- cellent to watch. McElwain who went scorcless through the session. made up for his lack of points with speedy floor work. One of the ad- mirable things about the formor American league star is his willin ness at all times to sacrifice his own personal glory for the success of the team. Time after time last night. he passed where he might have shet |but the baskets were scored whici {counted in the final result. Shee- han, while covering Rothenfeld like the leech that he is, managed lto gather in threc field goals for himself. It was a closc battle for the greater part of the first half. Bot' teams played with amazing speed and split seconds had the ball first at one end of the court and then at another. Near the end of the session, New Britain forged ahead and led at rest time by a score ot | 23 to 11. Carl Restelli was sent in in the d.frame when McElwain was from the game on fouls. Carl has been taking a vacation for the past two seasons because last | night, he fitted into the team per- | fectly and bounded in a basket thwt lielped New Britain greatly, He was the same Carlo of several scasons | ago and he was fast on the floor ani kept his man well covered. Holst also got into the game at guard and he kept up the work of keep- ing Rothenfeld safely under cover. Cohen, at all times, one of the | most fearea opponents on any team, led the Silver City quintet in shoot- ing. He scored a total of cight pointa, the result of four fleld goals. “Red” Linger followed him with five points. The guards dic the buli of the scoring. Meriden missed plenty of shots but New Britain kept the players popping from a distance. TRarely the Meriden men were able to get close. Sloman acted as pivot maa on the cut-ins and it was McKi- wain's clever passing that brought the ball in. Meriden did some fast pass work near the center but New Britain broke up the works when cuts were made for the basket. Leary and Shechan starred in thiy capacity while Zukzewski ed the local backboard on cvery shot. It i8 safe to predict that after the | Meriden team gets working more | smoothly, any other team in or out lof the statc will find difficulty in | setting it back. Last night’s con- !

The game was the first of men's games to be played as the prelimin- ary attraction for New Britain Sat- urday night games at the Stanley Avena. The fans veted their approval {of this type of preliminary entertain- ment and it is expected that the Burritt A.

It was Fred Saunders. brother of the feam's manager, who was the hightight in the quintet's succens. He tossed in eight field goals and a fpul goal for 17 points. Andy Yakubowitz [ made five fleld goals, but it was net the scoring of these tto individuals which featured the game, it was the clock-like work of the team. When Joe Jasper went inte the game in the secend half he fitted into the lincup very satisfactorily. The Capital City team did net show much.

BOYS' CLUB TAKES SECOND N A ROW Deleats Niddletown “Y" g5 - Latter Opeas New Gym The Boys' club basketball team captured its second successive tri- umph last night when it won the first game played in the new Middle- town Y. M. C. A. The score was 31-21. The locals found themselves facing a team which was far heavier than themselves—a team which had given last year's club quintet four terrific batties. But Captain Com- pagnone sent his team into the lead by making the first five peints of the game and New Britain was ousted from that lead only once during the entive contest. After Campagnone's spurt, Dunn made Middletown's first score on a long shot, but Schmarr duplicated this to make the count 7-2 at the quarter. Schmarr continued-his scor- ng during the early part of the sec- ond quarter, going up ahead to 12-6, but just before the end Middletown rallied and took a 14-12 lead. As the second half began Grusha sneaked under the basket to take a long pass and tie the score, and Bchmarr put the club ahead again a moment later. Once more Middletown came back, but Touy Kerelejza finally found the hoop from far up the fioor and New Britain was in front te stay. Teny staged an individual scoring spree in the last period and New Britain pulled away to an easy win. Despite the weight handicap, the club team functioned well—the best in fact, it pas done so far this sca- son. Grusha again continued to play & great defensive game; he and Compagnon keeping ‘the tricky Dunn and eother Middletown for- wards covered all the time. Schmarr, the club’s potential new star, at last flashed into brilliancy with four b: kéts, while Kerelejza, after a weak start, found himself toward the close arid put in the winning baskets.

That the two are sincere in their negotiations can best be borne out by the conditions under which the game has been arranged. The Hart. ford players are putting up a purse ‘of §500 which will be covered by the New Britain team and the winner of the game will take all of the gate receipts, Not satisfied that New Britain is, the batter teams, Hobson made one of the terms of the agreement the clause that none but the original players on both squads will be used in the contest. No outside collegs men will be used by either team. Hartford was the first to import players for a game in the series. They secured Johnny Grip and “Zev'' Graham for the second game which Hartford won. Then when New Britain brought Bautt, Beloin and Politis, Hartford started to squawk and the squawk has resulted in the agreement for another game, Tn the argument anent the quese tion of which was the better team, Zehrer and Hobson kept going up on the figures until each agreed that the winner would take all. Then the subject of a $500 side bet was broached and quickly snapped up by the New Britain pilot. Because of the bitter fecling made more 50 by the game last Sunday at the Velodrome in Hartford Bundlay's game will be one of the old-fashion- ed knock-down, drag-out gemes which the Nutmegs of old used to play. Manager Zehrer exudes confi- dence over the chances of New Brit. ain to win and it {8 understood that Hartford is coming here with loads of fans just out of the pay line. Hobson is scoffing at the claims of New Britain and he just as confi- dently says that Hartford has tho better team and this will be proved Sunday afternoon. ‘The game will be started promptly at 2:15 o'clock.
