RIFLEMEN TAKE PRIZES AT MEET After a study of all the angles of the football situation locally, the| prospect of getting enough cash customers at Memorial 1ield in Wil- | Yow Brook to cover expenses and the | arrangement of a schedule, H\v‘ three men who form the All-New Britain Iootball Club, Inc., decided | today to abandon all plans of op- erating a team for the remainder of the present season. Edward J. Dailey, spokesman for the club, announced that it had been the intention of the offi to lower the price of admission from to 50 cents at the gate. This would have necessitated the attendance of 1,800 fans and this appea at the | present time, to be not likely. The returns at 50 cents per head on this number would be 3650 and this would just cover expe: s and leave nothing for profit All efforts to secure a suitable opponent for a game in this cit next Sunday, met with failure. h cnly eleven not booked for the week- ! end is the Corinthian team of H: ford, a combination of colored sia but the local men were of the opin- fon that this team would be unable W, to furnish a good enough game. |, Other attempts to sign up tezms un- | covered the fact that they were all beoked for games.

Although Bat Battalino holds the title of the 126-pound class, not even tlic Bat's closest friends would tell vou that the Hartford boy deserves the distinction. Put him in the same ring with Chocolate or LaBarba. ind Bat would be fortunate to es- ipe with his head, much less his New Battalino, since the night he won |the title under extraordinary cir- cumstances, to say the least, has de- voted himself to overweight matches exaclusively. Thus, he has held on to the championship despite many ar- tistic lickings. The champion ha been asked to come to New York and meet the winner of Monday's fight, but there is little chance of his doing so. For Battalino, what- cver his prowess as a fighter, is not dumb. 000 cus- says will | sl ould give the 18,000 or tomers Tom McArdle watch the scrap, a run money.
