ON THE FIRST BOUND — e ——, The rain of yesterday afternoon spolled a fine baseball attraction at St Mary's fleld, between the New Britain and Meriden police. Up to the time the downpour came, the teams were battling in big league style, and the locals were just about getting ac- quainted with the slants of Baer, :WITR CL According to the rul{s of the sport, yesterday's affair was Mo contest.

Captain Cutting and ILieutenant Chris Harmon, of the Waterbury po- lice, Joe Shea, former featherweight champion of New England, Maurice Walsh and M. Collins, of Waterbury, were also in attendance Chief Hart extenfled to all a greet- tog of welcome. Master Charles Hagarty sang two solos, accompanied by John J. Crean at the piano. Mayor King Amuses, Mayor King, of Meriden was the first speaker. His remarks just spar- kled with wit, and his auditors were in constant laughter throughout his talk. Mayor King said he is glad to be mayor, just because of such occa- sions as that of yesterday. Speaking of the weather condi- tions of yesterday, Mayor King sald New Britain needs a dry squad bad- ly. He assured New Britain people they are welcome in Meriden, and if they ever get arrested, “just send for the mayor, everybody else does,” he humorously said. Mayor King said that after watching “Tom' Feeney get hit, he knows now that the sleuth has the hardest head of any cop in New England. “The New Britain police department does not need a vice squad, when one of its officers has a head like that."” Mayor King said that the next time he comes to this city, he is going to bring along a boat, instead of an au- tomobile. The mayor said that he came here dry inside, and was going back to Meriden wet, on the outside. In closing Mayor King complimented both the police departments, and the baseball players on the respective teams. Cops Liked This Song. Mrs. Mary T. Crean sang several solos and was forced to encores on “Oh How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning.”” This song went very big with the policemen. Chief Landrigan was tendered an ovation as he arose to respond to hrief remarks. D. L. Dunn, chair- man of the local police commission also spoke. Paonessa Sends Regrets. Mayor Paonessa was unable to be present owing to other official busi- ness, and he sent his regrets. May Play Benefit Game. Chief Hart said that in view of the ending of the game yesterday as it did, the New Britain police would be glad to play another game. He said that in years gone by two men in the Meriden police department were prominent in baseball, and that Auring the past vear they had passed on to their reward. Chlef Hart re- ferred to Sergeant John J. Bonin and ‘usty. The local head department suggested game be played, and that the receipts be turned over to families of the deceased sergeants. A silent toast to the memory of both deceased policemen then followed. Grace Gets Ovation. When Captain Thomas W. Grace was introduced some of the boys gave him a great cheer, and then broke into the song, "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow." Captain Grace said he heartily endorses the suggestion of Chief Hart holding a third game and to defray the receipts to the Bonin and Custy families. Traffic Policeman John Roche, of New Haven, told of the early days of police basehall, and that next sea- son New Haven will have a team, and Meriden will be one of its first victims. Captain Cutting’s Toast. Cutting, of Waterbury, hit with the recital of the following toast, “The Thappiest days of my life, were those spent in the arms of another man's wife—my mother."” A Knock, Not Humor. Assistant #Prosecutor Willlam M. Greenstein, in an attempt to be hu- morous, said that as baseball play- ers, the Meriden and New Britain men were fine policemen. He said that inter-city games were fine things. Sergeant Job of the police that the third Captain made a big Parker Disagrees. Commissioner Parker said he could not agree with the remarks of At- torney Greenstein relative to the abil- ity of the police teams. The com- missioner said that policemen should conduct themselves in a manner that would bring the respect of the pub- lie. So Did Lange. Commissioner Lange said he also did not agree with the remarks of Attorney Greenstein, relative to the ability of the police teams. The com- missioner said he witnessed games between the teams and he was B uM il e, 6 Cylinder—50 Horsepower—*995 The Jewett weighs more than 2800 pounds ready for the road. That at once proves that it cannot be compared with any “light” six on the market. It is equipped with a fifty horsepower motor of 31/ inch bore and 5 inch stroke. To find a motor of equal power you must look to cars that sell for a much higher price. It is important to remember these facts. For they prove that the Jewett is built with excess strength in every detail of its frame, transmission, clutch, drive shaft and special Timken axles.

The skillful workmanship and the fine materials of these hidden values are largely responsible for its long-lived dependable service. Two important elements that make the Special-Six notable for fine perform- ance and comparative freedom from repair, are the four-bearing crankshaft and the seven-inch frame with its five cross-members and sub-frame support- CHISOX PITCHERS RELEASED Chicago, Sept. 7.—Pitchers Harry Courtney and ‘“‘Shovel” Hodge, of the Chicago American league club, have been released to the San Francisco club of the Pacific coast league in part payment for Willle Kamm, phe- nomenal third baseman, it was an- nounced today. ing the motor and the separate trans- mission.
