If there was any doubt before yesterday as (o the the Nutn A. C. football team of this city over the Hartford Giants, it was most decidedly dispelled yes terday afternoon at Memorial If in Willow Brook park when th Hardware City eleven, mighty in its power, crushed the Giants by the score of 13 to 0. Two touchdowns, one scored by Bautt, Fordham star, and the other by Durns, former Villanova eud, tolled the doom of whatever ambitions the Giants might have had to cven up matters with the local team. The Giants were solutely match for the Nutmegs in day's game. Except for a s time in the third period when the Glants after a rally that gave them two first downs in consecutivev order, brought the ball to New Britain's three yard line. Here in the first play of the final quarter Grip fumbled and “Toots” Politis landed on the ball for New Britain and Radzewich kicked it out of danger. This was the only time that Hartford threatened the New Britain line. T Capital City team had taken posscssion when Fitzpatrick intercepted a pass on New Britain's 40 yard line and then made a preity run of 16 yards to the 24 yard linc. Hartford’'s highly touted aerial attack and its famous backfield combination did little damage dur- ing the gamc.. On the other hand, New Britain’s plays, except for some instances, worked well. The line, ~ as always, tore ragged holes in the | Hartford defense and on one occa- sion, “Silent John" Davis went through Hartford's tackle and all but got away for touchdown. “Butsy” Strum went after him after he had cleared the line and as Davis stopped short, “Butsy” fell down but in so doing, tripped Davis who had just gotten bchind his in- terference. New Britain's backfield wa in excellent shape. With Bautt, lonki, Davis and Radzewich doing the brunt of the ball carrying it penetrated through Hartford's for- d wall time after time. Dautt as a regular demon while Radz wich p a stellar role through- out. plunged through Hart- ford's line but showed his greatest stuff on the defense. The Nutmeg line needs no praise at all. Throughout the entire - son, it has been one of the best gathered together in this city in years. Yesterday was no exception and the Hartford bac #ort almost entirely to acrial work to make any prograss. In fact, ex- cept for purts, Hartford was thrown for almost as much lost ground as it gained on buck: Bautt carricd the hall over for the first score. Davis had carried the ball to the 39 yard line and Bautt threw a pass to Radzewich to the 27 yard line. Another pass, Bautt to Belonki brought the oval to the 13 yard line. Hartford was penal- ized and then Bautt mad first down on the two yard stripe. Two saults at the center were repulsed and then Bautt tore through tackle for a clear scorc The second came with suddenness. Hartford had the ball on its own 43 y: line. Druehl went to kick when “Peeowee” Wi waiss hurtled through the air, took the ball in the body and the kick was blocked. 1t hounced bick and like a flash of lizhtning real ball hawk, scooped it up and with Tom Humphries and Oscar Nanfeldt smothering a would-he tackler Burns raced fo the goal line and fell over for a tonchdown.

In the first and third quarters one combination play- ed and in the second and last quar- ters another team made an appear- ance.

New Britain Basketball Team Noses Out New -York Champions, 29 to 26 — Squawking of Visitors Causes Them to Forget to Play the Game—Brook- lyn Players Form Fastest Combination Seen Here This Year—Return Game Assured — Home Club Leads at Half 'l‘ime. With both quintets flashing dazz- ling spged through four hectic and thrilling 10-minute periogs, the New Britain basketball team nosed out the Brownsville Favorites of Brook- lyn, N. Y., in the Saturday night court feature played at the Stanley Arena on Church street. The visit- ing team, like all the others that come to this city from New York, 1 kept continually squawking over the decisions of Referee Clyde Waters but to no avail. New Britain won the game be- cause of the accuracy of the local players from the foul stripe. Browns- ville scored eight fleld goals to six scored by the local five but New Britain counted 17 times from the foul line to 10 times for the visi- tors. This gavé the home club an advantage of three points at the finish, the final count being 39 to 26 in favor of New Britain. All the tricks known to the game were pulled in the first half and the referee was hard put to it to call all the rule violations. Both quin- tets forgot to play basketball as the half progressed and the game de- veloped into a mauling match with the score close all the way.. New Britain led at half time by the nar- row margin of 17 to 16 and only the fastest sort of play kept the locals in the lead. Al Sloman, pitted against Gerson, a clever guard, was once again the leading point getter for New Brit- ain. Sloman popped in three field Zlgoals and six fouls for a total of 12 points. McElwain proved to be fully as clever as any of the visi- tors and he was a streak on the floor, passing accurately and bring- ing the ball in at every opportunity. Johnny Sheehan went like a house afiresuntil late in the second halt when his knee was thrown Qut of joint and he was forced to leave the game. His running mate, Tom Leary, former Fdrdham ‘captain, kept Posnack and Epstein scoreless from the floor, Posnack shooting one point from the foul line. Jim Zakzewski, up against a stringer on the New York team, managed to break through for a field goal and two foul shots. He was a whirl on in great shape. Zakzewski went out on fouls shortly after the second half began and Holst took his place. Ray, find- ing himself in very fast company, soon adapted himself to the picture and worked the game nicely until the end. “Hope" Restelll continued his excellent work of last Thursday night. He relicved Sheehan when “8nowshoes” was Injured and Carl formed a perfect cog in the New Britain machine. The visitors were the fastest com- bination seen on the local floor in some time. The Brownsville Favo- rites are a very smart aggregation and had the quintet played basket- ball instead of continually crowing at the referee, New Britain might have been on the wrong end of the score. Without a doubt, this quin- tet will be seen in New Britain again on a future occasion. Every man was a crack basketball player and, incidentally, Saturday night's defeat was the first one suffered by the team in 18 games. Rightfully the quintet claims the amateur championship of New York. \Wonder What A Millionaire Baby Thinks About. the floor and kept his man covered | For the third time, Zakzewski scored The first point for New Brit- ain.
