Waterbury at New Britain. Whether New Britain remains in first place or slides into second in the American Rolley Hockey league depends on the outcome of its game with the Waterbury Shamrocks at the Stanley Arena on Church street tonight. At the prosent time, New Britain 1s in a tie for the leader's position with Albany whila Water- bury is in second place. . Waterbury was heaten in Prov demce last night by the score of 5 to 4 but this will serve only to spur the Shamrocks on to beat New Fritain. In six meetings with the jocal club so far this year, ‘Water- bury has been beaten five times, these being consecutive victories and Waterbury will put forth itx best efforts tonight to break =pell. “Red” Donnelly, captain of the visiting crew, has become the center of attraction in tonight's game. He is one of the scrappiest players in. the league and on cvery appear- ance in this city he has managed to have at least one fight. On his last appearance here. he was presented with a beautiful bouguct of roses by his admirers but he got a deluge of ragzberries all through the game. New Dritain’s crew is in excellent shape for a real tough battle. Harry Thompson is still D!lffer\ng slightly from an injury to his chest roceived in a game with Yall »Rl\'v:r last Sunday afterneon but it is ex- pected that he will be in !)_\nufl when the game starts tonight.
