Arthur (Kid) Willlams, considered one of the best players in the Ameri- can Roller Hockey league, will be with New Britain Thursday night when the local team meets the Wa- terbury quintet at the Stanley Arena in this city. Williams was unable to report here for the opening of the season and as a consequence, the lo- cal team hag suffered four straight reverses. His presence in the lineup Thursday night will give the Hard. ware City combination & strong of- fensive and will serve to prevent the other teams in the circuit from mak- ing a doormat of the local crew. Besides being one of the fastest combinations in the circuit, the Wa~ terbury team will furnish an added attraction here because of the fact that Eddie McAloon, junior, son of his “old man” and one of the most popular of the players in the New Britain amateur league last season, is & member of the squad. Edd has fit in nicely alongside Davies, star rusher of the Brass ity crew and his friends in this city will be interested in seeing him perform. “Red” Donnelly, one of the scrap- | piest of the centers playing in the league will be at his usual post in the middle of the floor while Hebert, a newcomer in the circut will be at halfback. Bill Blount, for years the onistanding goal tender in the league will be before the cage. He played with New Britain last season. New Britain, under the direction of Captain Harry Thompson, wil 1div rect all of its efforts towards winning its first game.
