  s pc a king o Sports Lefty” Haber was the outstand- ing star in the Tufts victory over Colby Saturday. The New Britain boy, who is better known as a base ball player than a football man, played at left halfback. He was given the ball time after time and made repeated gains on criss cross play. At one time Lefty was given the ball seven times in row and gained yardage on every play. It was a series of plays featuring Haber that finally put the sphere across the goal line for the only score. Boston papers spoke in glow ing terms of the local boys work. Ray Begley, veteran baseball play CT and coach of the Landers team in the Industrial league, Is seriously i’ll at his home on East street. He is suffering from intestinal grip and complications. Ray has hundreds of friends in this city and throughout the state who will be roofing for a speedy and complete recovery. Fordham officials are hoping that the broken bone in Montjue Za- leski’s foot will heal quickly. The local boy is captain of the basket ball team and much is expected of him. He suffered the injury to his foot in football practice. Hartford High ran up against a tartar Saturday and was beaten 19 to by Stockbridge school of Mass achusetts. The Blue and White was so confident of victory that it start ed it’s second team. Bridgeport Central High, which badly defeated Hartford last week, was an easy victim for the Yale third varsity team. The final score was 32 to 0. New Britain is slated to meet the Bridgeport aggregation. A prominent Bridgeport paper stated yesterday that Camera was robbed in his fight with Jimmy Ma loney. Jimmy did everything but throw the giant Italian out of the ring, belting him at ease and giving him a sound thrashing. If Maloney was not the victor in every sense of the word. then boxing should be banned immediately and ping pong substituted. Gay Bromberg had a soft time Saturday in his teams 74 to 0 vic tory over Boston university. The local Dartmouth star had a field day, making countless tackles. Lil Albie Booths brain slipped cog Saturday and Yale’s defeat at the hands of Georgia may be laid to this lapse. With his team lead ing by 14–⁠6 and the ball on Geor- gia’s one-yard line and fourth down coming. the Eli quarterback faile1 ] to realize that the longest way around is sometimes the shortest way there and he called for a straight plunge. And Taylor ran smack into an unyielding Georgia line that was awaiting him. But Booth Is not alone in this matter. Whenever team gets atop the goal line the quarterback seems only to think of getting the ball over, an6 in the heat of the fray he can be rgiven for forgetting that the surprise of something different would probably bring greater sue cess. Had Yale scored this time, 1t would have lead by 20–⁠6 or 21–⁠6 and not only would Georgia’s following two touchdowns been insufficient but they probably would not have materialized because the Southern CTS would have been disheartened. But Albie played a great game aside from this single lapse, and the whole eleven men on the Geor- gia team had tough time chasing him here and there about the grid iron in their efforts to run him to earth. They generally did, but 1t took a flock of them to do it, anI even then they had no picnic. And amid it all Booth kept a non- chalance which we have never seen matched on a football field. Undis- turbed by success, failure or rough tactics. Albie went pertly and deter minedly about the task of winning, and that he was unsuccessful may be blamed with more justice on his weakening line than on anything 1lse. The Blue forwards looked power- ful in the first half. but after inter- mission they wilted badly and Ceor
