.Speaking of Sports The same amount of interest wasy shown in the display of the plays in the world series game yesterday as there was nday. An ‘even larg- er crowd gathered before the Herall playograph to watch the-game as it ‘was depicted there. Tomorrow, Sunday and_Monday, the two teams will be playing in St. Louis. The games there will start at 1:30 o'clock Central Standard time which will be 2:30 o'clock East- ern Standard time. The Herald will issue an extra on the game tomorrow afternoon giv- ing a play by play account of the game. This is ¥sued solely for the convenience of the baseball fans of the city. Football takes over the reins lo cally starting Sunday. Local base- ball teams have folded up for the season and the Rams will play Thorhgston in the first game of the Yyear. Kensington will probably be play- ing its last game of baseball Sun- day afternoon when it meets Win- sted for the mythical state title. Kensington has won 18 straight games this season and it begins to look bad for Winsted. . Another meeting on baskgtball ‘was held by the members of the In- dustrial Council at the Y. M. C. A. last night. There will be eight teams in the league again tHis sea- son, according to an announcement by Bryce Long. The New Britain Machine and Corbin Cabinet Lock teams will most probably enter the circuit again this season. John Tobin and Bryce Long were appointed as a_committec to com- municate with Dan Ahearn of Mid- dletown and Clyde Waters of Bris- tol seeking them as referees again this year on the same basis as last season. The contract between the Indus- trial basketball league and the Tabs for the use of the hall on Tuesdays and Fridays during the season, has been signed by both parties and games will be staged there again this year. Season tickets will be distributed about the various factories and the importance of their sale was stress- ed at last night’s meeting. Becaus2 of the industrial depression, twice as much work will have to be done In order that the tickets may bring in as much as last season. Manager Clarence Lanpher of the New Britain basketball team will announce definitely after next Mon- day whether he will have a team in the field or not again this season. If he. does decide to enter the profes- sional basketball promotion again. his games will most probably be staged at the state armory on Arch street. He has already been in communi- cation with several players and he has very definite ideas about the makeup of his quintet for the sea- son.

SMITH NEA Service Special Writer A man who had an urge to act Shakespearcan roles and who might | have been on the gtage today had he not suffered an attack of home- sickness Georgetown University's ball coach. He is thick-set, grizzled, person- able Tommy Mills, one of Knute Rockne's master strategists at Notre Dame for the last three seasons and bearing the verbal Croix de Guerre pinned on*him by “K. K.” for being “the smartest football scout I ever met.” one day it New York, is new foot- Mills was graduated from Beloit College, after which he went to the University of Wisconsin firmly bent on studying law. However, drama always had held out an irre- sistible lure and he finally accepted an offer to join the cast of “Kismet.” which Mrs. Fiske was to produce in New York with Otis Skinner in the leading role. Broadway soon lost its charm for youthful Tommy Mills; as rehear- sals dragged on and on, he found himself wondering whether an ac- tor's life was the happy, thrill-pack- ed road he had pictured. There was the offer of a teaching and coaching position in an Omaha high school, which had been made him several months before, and one night when discouragement hung heavy on his shoulders, he hastily packed and started west to claim it. In Omaha, Tommy found time to play in a local stock company and also in moving pictures, but he soon lost his yen for grease paint and Creighton University offered him its head coachship, he threw away his phoney whiskers for good and all to accept. PRI Tn his five years there, Mills brought Creighton up from a non- entity in midwestern athletics to a constant threat, his basketball team winning 72 out of 76 games. Then Beloit called him back. At the little Wisconsin college Mills performed another miracle, transforming a downhearted loser into a battling champion that held the conferenec title in all sports for three seasons running. His 1922 | cleven defeated Northwestern, while in 1925 he stormed into South Bend with a team that the Irish were able to down only by a last-ditch rally in the closing minutes of the last period. A year later found Mills himself serving under Rockne, who had evi- dently decided it was better to have such a foeman in his own camp than in the opposing trenches. He coached wrestling, boxing and var- sity football for two years, then took over the freshmen for a year. PR Now he's at Georgetown in the position Lou Little filled so capably until he left to go to Columbia. A good break for the Blue and Gray? Well, they think so. VARSITY IN GOOD SHAPE New Haven, Oct. 3 (UP)—Aside from a few slight colds the varsity football squad was in good shape today for the Dbattle with Maryland on Saturday.
