SCINSKI IN DEBT; MAY HAVE T0 QUIT Will Do, He Says. To find a gamer sport than Owner Scinski, of the New Britain baseball franchise would indeed be a hard matter, for at the meeting of the league directors held last night at the Hotel Garde in New Haven he re- ported that things have been going unusually bad for his team and he has been losing on the average of $100 a day when he plays at home. Has No Definite Plins. Unless some help is forthcoming brother magnates at the meeting in New Haven to- night it may be necessary for the local owner to drop out of the league, although he stated this morning that he was not sure just what action he would take. Loses Average of $100 per Day. “I really do need help,” says Own- er Scinski, ‘“for things have been breaking awfully bad for me this season and I have been losing on an average of $100 per day here at home. 1 figure that if I continue to lose as much as I have been losing 1 shall have dropped behind another $2,000 for the entire season.” 1s Hard Pressed. At the close of the league meeting in New Haven last night it was stated by other magnates that Mr. Scinski told them of the deplorable financial condition which exists in the treasury of the local club and several of them expressed the opinion that the team | might not last another week. They said that not only is Manager Scinski indebted to the league because he | has been unable to pay up the re- quired assessments but he owes con- siderable to his players and that debt will be further increased when pay day rolls around tomorrow. Given Until Saturday. The New Britain man told the league directors that he wishes to finish the season if he possibly can so that he can open up again next vear. After the meeting had ad- journed President O’Rourke of Bridgeport said he did not care to state just what Mr. Scinski’s indebted- ness to the league amounts to but he | had been given until Saturday night to square up his accounts. Mr. Scinski was hoping to have the league help him in his financial em- barrassment but “they don’t show any inclination to do s0,” he states. All season long Mr. Scinski has proved himself a g&me lcser ecd fas shown that he has the true sporting blood in his veins. It is indeed too bad If the league can’t see its way clear to assist him financially so that he may continue until September 12, when the season closes, and then be able to start afresh next spring. Works Hard Today. Mr. Scinski has been working hard all day, making a canvass of many well known men about the city to see if anything can be done to tide the team over for the next few weeks. . trom his special morrow | says that Chamberlain's preparatory school, He fate of the cruiser Breslau.
