The second tally, which was a | slashing drive to right field by Movers | with the bases full, spelled defeat for | Bridgeport in the eighth, 10 to 5. It Wwas a game that abounded in heavy hitting, sensatioanl fielding and almost | constant wrangling. Umpire Corri- | gan had a busy day of it and chased Skiff, the Bridgeport catcher, from the game after he made a swat to left| fleld in the sixth inning, good for three bases, but was called out for not touching second and talked himself out of the game. The game had to be played on the common as Wahconah park was in no condition for baseball after the heavy rains of several days.

Waterbury 5 DEMPSEY QUITS BASEBALL | Challenger For Willard's Crown “‘fll: Take No Chances of Injuring His | Hands—Rickard Orders Gloves, Toledo, May 24—Jack Dempsey has, athletically speaking, been placed in a glass case. Because of the danger of injury to his hands he probably will drop ba ball from his training program. The challenger cngaged in a game yesterday, and Tex Rickard, promoter of the contest, wore a worried look every time Dempsey raced to pick up a bounder or stabbed the air in fleld- | ing fly balls. Rickard fears that Dempsey might break finger if struck by a swiftly batted ball. Dempsey already has stored his mo- tor car until after the match and is avoiding all other risks of injury. He has decided to wear a headgear when he begins boxing to protcct his cars from damage by blows. Bill Tate, a giant negro heavyweight from New York, joined the challeng- er's camp vesterday. He is 6 feet 5 inches tall, just an inch shorter than | Willard, weighs 236 pounds in ring togs and has a long reach. i Dempsey was cager {o step a rounds with Tate, but Trainer De Forest objected. Instead the chal- lenger took a six mile hike on the road, jogging along with Tate and | Terry Kellar, light heavyvweight. Rickard yesterday ordered two sets| of especially hand made boxing gloves for the championship battle from a San Francisco concern which has made gloves for many important championship contests for the last twenty-five years. The gloves will be of the regulation five ounce weight. Rickard ordered two sets, so one could be thrown into the ring if eith- er Dempsey or Willard split his first | pair of gloves.
