Springfield, May 28.—Until some of Webster's successors coin a more fit- ting expression it will be necessary to describe yesterday's game between Britain and Springfleld as 'welrd.” That poor old word has been lugged into print on numerous occa- dions this vear in the Fastern asso- #iation and it will probably apply to the union for relief from overtime work. But it happens to describe duite well the battle fought between William Jennings Scinski's subway frorkers and William Carey's stable of ¢olts on May 27, 1914, A. D., in the Superior city. The Connecticut in- +vaders won, 10 to 7. Scinski used fifty per cent. of his pitching staff to stem the tide and it ivas not until Ray Hancock ascended the mound that the Ponies were squelched. “Billy" Hamilton, the Springficld pilot, kept Hal Justin in the box long enough to put the game in the cold storage plant for New Britain and then sent Johnny Lower in for relief work. Even Héd Johnson, the Haddam prophet, would not have . dared’ to forecast fourteen hits for New Britain ard Hod has taken some chances as a prognosticator. But that Is the num- , her the visitors turned in and some of them were good. healthy clouts that fiiean work for the scorers when there were men on bases. Catcher Egan of New Britain led his élub in swatting, poking out four | ¢lean singles. Larry Pratt, Bgan's | @ontemporary, did him one better by | @ynnecting for three singles and a | triple. The particularly exciting » Moment in the game was when “Bill" Luby, the New Britain first baseman, &tolé second. Luby was used as a model by T. E. Powers, the New York eartoonist, who originated the original | picture of the “beef trust.” | New Britain showed s6 much pep P that the local fans were surprised. The Nutmeggers came here with the féputation of being fast semi-pros but the shoe was on the other foot as i they uncovered considerable big league #stuff.

'COOPER T0 RED SOX; NUNAMAKER T0 YANKS Interchange of P.aysré Made by New York-and Boston. New President Frank J. New Yorks announces the sale of Pitcher Cooper to the Boston Red Sox Farrell said that the young was disposed of for cash. announced that Catcher Leslie Nuna- maker came to Frank Chance on a cash purchase. The inference Is nat- ural that Cooper goes to Boston in exchange for Nunamaker, Both teams are likely to greatly as a result of their recent bar- gaining. Nunamaker certainly gave the very best account of himself be- hind the bat for New York before he was so unfortunate @s to sustain a split thumb. Cooper should develop into a rattling pitcher for the Red Sox. It is not likely that would ever have thought of sacrific- ing him if the manager had not been s0 hard pressed for catching talent about the time that Sweeney showea signs of bronchial affliction Cooper made a very favorable im- pression on Chance during the spring training trip. He big right hander and almost an exact counte part of the famous Rube Waddell in looks and build. If the Peerless Lead- er had not zeen so bountifully sup- plied with fine pitchers it likely that Cooper would have had a chance to prove his worth before this. He 1s a very aggressive fellow, game to the core and possessed of remarkable spede and a fine curve. Cooper came from Petersburg of the Virginia league, where he won the pennant single handed last season. New York outbid Brooklyn for his services. Cooper was formerly a star athlete | of the United States navy. For | couple of seasons he held the mid- dleweight championship of the At- lantic squadron. Now that Farrell and Lannin have broken the ice it will not be surpris- ing if further exchanges in playera are made. adding a couple of hitters to his team | Boston possesses one outfielder who is doing bench duty who appeals to New York, and has also a utility in- fielder for whom the locals would go York, Farrell May of the My boxman It was also benefit No Premiums Required to Hold Camel Smokers Camels — choice Turkish and domestic tobaccos blended into the most delightful smoke money can A finer cigarette to fit your taste has never yet seen the light of day!
