The game was one of the most thrilling staged here this season. With a three run lead, Bridge- port from the very first inning looked like a surc winner, but New London had three men on bases twice and at least one man on base in ev in- ning. With one out {n the ninth, New London tied the score, making runs on a pass, a double and a single. Tn the eleventh, with one out, Bates flied to Yim, who muffed the fly and the runner got to second. IFlynn hit to the pitcher and the play was made on bates at third.

Under the present conditions, with so | many of the recognized stars awa it would be just as hard to pick the probable winner as finding a needle in a haystack and for this reason no | one apears willing to offer a predic- tion.
