The Manchester nine seized avery opportunity offered to score and they led the local team 12 to 2 at the sixth inning. Then, however, the locals started to land on the offerings of the silk town hurler with the result that the score was 12 to 11 in the ninth. In the last half of this inning, the bhases he- came filled, man was forced in and then “Dixie” Griffen came through with a homer that cleared the bags and put the game on ice. The score: one N.

Besides catching his usual good game, he lined out the hitg that broke up the game. Jackson and Patrus of team starred in the field.

Hartford and New Haven at Trinity Field Saturday. The events in which the local athletes starred were those in which Coach Delaney had expected to have them win out. The other events which were won by either of the other two teams, were those which were new to the local boys and come undef the list of events for which the lotal runners and jumpers have no place to practice, Declancy Cops 100 True to form, Captain Ed. Delaney ran first in the 100 yard dash. Run- ning agldinst a highly touted field of runners, the diminutive “kid"” ot the team, raced gway frem the othér con- testants, af t the tape ahead of the fleld fj fast time of 10 1-5 seconds. gndino First. As predictpd in the Herald last ¥riday, Landino pulled one ef his magnificent leaps in the bread jump, and was not' teuched by any of the other contestants He jumped 19 feet, 10 inches, which, considering the age and size of the law, is a remark- able leap. The men who won second and third places failed to even threaten him. He cleared the take- oft perf@tly and madé the mark which was not touched by any others. Cooley Lands Third. Cooley, the local High school . | jumper, had probably the stiffest com- petition of the afternoon. It was generallx thought that Hartford would win the first place, and true to form, Stevens of that team ' cépped the first place. Cooley came third, jumping as good as he has done this season. Relay Team Second The relay team took second place, following Hartford. Here again, De- laney starred, practically winning the race himself. The New Britain feur got away to a bad start, and were tralling in third place until the last lap when Delaney took the baton and swung ahead of the New Haven run- ner and all but breasted the tape be- fore the winning Hartford man. Stars Ineligible. Unfortunately, the best two 220 yard men that New Britain had were ineligible on account of studies and were barred from compéting in the events. The hopes of the locals were shot when this became known and the boys who entered that event failed to place. The longer runs, the 440 and 880 yard dashes, were as expected, won by members of the other .two . compéting teams. The lécal boys have not had a place wherein they could train propeérly for these long distances, and thus they were handi- capped Saturday. The discus and polé vault, being new to the locals, were easily won by the opposing teams. Coach Delaney Satisfied. Coach Relaney feels satisfied that his team, crippled as it was by the absence of seme of its best men, won put in the events which he predicted Friday. He had hepes that some of the beys would spring a surprise, but the uncertainty of the events in which they were entered Kkept him frem hoping that they would cop the BY BRIGGS
