Yesterday's battle evened things for both teams havg been victorious over each other. However, the All-Hartford eleven, which downed the Rambler- Tigers a week ago Sunday, defeated the Clay Hills yesterday, and the Nut- megs hold a victory over Captain Mickey Landers eleven. Although the weather was very un- favorable, a good sized crowd was on hand to watch these bitter rivals of yesterday, clash. The Nutmegs were strengthened by Parsons, the lanky backfield player, who scored the ! touchdown after receiving a forward | pass trom Jae Neville. The locals did not get the breaks, several penalties in the second period after Parsons had twice crossed the goal line, brought the ball back into play. How- ever, Nevillq and Parsons showed = persistency to put across their favorite ! play, and although the Hartford team protested that the whistle had not blown, to start the play that resulted in the score, little attention is given thelr howl. The Nutmegs were out to win yes- terday, and the .players came up to expectations of the local crowd. The Hartford team which has been skid- ding badly since Captain Drew was injured came here hopeful of re- peating the victory earMer in the sea- son. In the locals lineup was Whalen, a former member of the Ram Tigers, and Dully, another Harford boy. The Nutmegs backfield worked lke & charm, and the line did every- thing expected of it Jim Conley, BALL GAMES JE TUESDAY NIGHT | —_——— to Oppose Actna Five of O Play at Armory— Tuesday Night. y ¥. M.

LEAGUE .Local Boy Has Average of 404 With Willow The name of Merwin Jacobson, of this city, Baltimore outfielder, leads all the rest in_the batting averages of the New International league for the 1920 season just issued. With the great figure of .404 for 154 games, no one else is near him. Frank Brower, the Readinz slugger, gave him a merry chase for two-thirds of the season, then went'to the Wash- ington Senators, and the rest of the field never threatened. Jacobson has been sought by the White Sox, Yankees, and in fact by all the big league teams, but Jack Dunn won't sell his batting star. He was once the property of the Giants, | being traded to Chicago in 1916 with Larry Doyle and Herbert Hunter for Helne Zimmerman. In addition to being the bést hit- ter,* Jacobson was the New Interna- tional’s leading run getter, scoring 161 times, Otis Lawry and Fritz Maisel, “teammates, were second and third in this regard, with 155 and 145 respectively. Jacobson made 235 hits, inchiding { thirty-five doubles, sixteen triples and ’ seven home runs.
