Among these was Gil Nicholls of New York, who added a fine 71 yes- terday marning to a pair of 78s only to get a bad start yesterday afternoon. This so exasperated the veteran, known to two continents, that lhe broke up his clubs and threw them away in disgust. American Golfers Win.

The baseball game between the Pine Hills of Waterbury and the Pioneers at the is street diamond tomorrow afternoon, is an altraction that should pack the field and stands. Those who saw the first meeting of the teams on June remember a corking battle that the locals won § after a ninth inning rally. The Pio- neers on that occasion were three runs to the bad, when they staged one of their famous batting rallies. The visitors looked at that time like one of the best semi-pro teams that has exhibited on the local grounds in sev- eral seasons.
