The vietory of the Waterbury team s the result of a campaign started two years agoe to bulld up the téam to pennant-winning stand- ard, The team made a very poor showing in 1928 but with new ma- terfal added this year, had been In “the lead’ practically all of the pres- ent playlfig year. Waterbury was headed by the Hartford club early in the year, but this handicap was soon overcome, despite the fact that Waterbury, suf- fered several jolts in the carly stages by injurles to players, Springfield won second placé in the 1924 season, with Hartford third and New Maven last in the first division, 1In the sécond division, the teams ended in thé following order: Pittsfleld, Worcester, Albany and Bridgeport, - EVERS SUGGESTS NEW BALL RULES (Continued ¥From Preceding Page) since |t would mean rot only the granting of first base to the bats- man but also an extra base for every other runner, Tncidentally Evers is of the cpin- ion that his suggestion would tend for more evenly balanced teams 1 closer pennant races. he better teams have the smarter pitching.

The semi-final bout also looks very good on paper. Tony Norman is con- sidered as a formidable epponent for Pancho Villa, the flyweight champ. George Mnlligan, who promotes the show, has made 'Villa an offer to meet Norman with the title involv- ed.

STAGG AND YOST ARE GRIDIRON'S VETERANS Famous Mentors Have Been | Harness for Many Years and Still Going Good Chicago, Sept. 15.—Two veteran football coaches will again lead their charges in the ehase for'the West- ern Conference championship ‘lus fall. They are Alonzo A. Stagg of Chicago and Iiielding H. Yost of | Michigan.| Stagg has been at the Midway School since 1892; Yost at Michigan since 1901. This will muke Stagg's thirty-third season as Chicago pilet and Yost's twenty-fourth; a long time to serve one school in the same capacity. Within the last year or so Yost has turned over much of the details to George Little, his assistant, but the “Hurry Up" one's word is still final. Of the other Big Ten universities, Bob Zuppke, lilinois and Dr. John Wilce, Ohio State, rank next in pojnt of service. Both have been in ch of Western Conference elevens for years. There four are the “old- timers'” in the organization. Glen Thistletwaithe, Northwest- ern; Bil' Spauling, Minnesota; Jack Ryan, Wisconsin; Bill Ingraham, Indiana, and Jimmy Phelan, Purdue, have all seen one or more secasons as Big Ten coaches. Of these Spauld- ing last fall, in his year in Big Ten, turned out a first class team. The only newcomer this fall in the conference will be Burt Ingwersen at Towa. The former lllini star has taken over the post left vacant by the resignation of Howard Jones. “Ingwersen's effots in his new role will be watched with more than the ordinary interest.

NO PARKING ZONE AROUND RESERVOI Water Board Wants Water Pro- tected From Pollution . At the requést of Chalrman Wil- lam L. Hatch of the water board, a resolution will be recommended to the common council Wednesday evening to prohibit the parking of vehicles on the roadway around Shuttle Meadow lake at any point within 100 feet of the reservoir &hore. Mr. Hatch has sent the following explanatory letter to the ordinance committee: “The board of water commission- ers find that there is a good deal of parking on the, west side of Shuttle Meadow reservoir on the road which runs close to the lake. Sometimes refuse from cars is thrown into the water of the lake,’which might pol- lute the water. For this reason we would request that“you introduce the enclosed ordinance which was drawn by the corporation counsel, and en- deavor to have it passed. “Mr. Kirkham informs me that the charter gives the city the right to pass such an ordinance in order to protect the quality of the water in the lake.” . The ordinance he proposed is as follows; “Be it ordained by the common lic water supply at Shuttle Meadow ‘Lake, in the town of Southintgon, may be better protected and pre- served, the parking of vehicles up- on the highways contiguous to said lake within the distance of 100 feet from the shores of said lake is here- by prohibited under penalty of a fine not to exceed $25 for each offense.” PIRATES STRENGTHEN THEIR BASEBALL TEAM Get New Players in Preparation For Crucial Series At Windup of Season Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 15.—In preparation for the pending series with Brooklyn and New York which will probably decide the chances of the Pittsburgh Pirates to win the | Natlonal league pennant the Pirate management today announced the acquisition of two new. players, a southpaw pitcher and a hard hitting | outfielder. , The pitcher, Don Songer, tained from the Oklahoma City club | of the western league in exchange | for Pitcher Herbert May and a cash consideration.

Sarazen shot a 76 yesterday, play- ing in a*foursome with Jock Hutch- ison, of Chiemngo, former British champion; Leo Diegel, of Washing- ton, Canadian and Tllinols open champion, and “John Farrell, of New York.

While Al Watrous, of Rapids, has returned record of 31-38—6 yard links and William Greavy, of Oklahoma City, has reported a round in 67 besides Diegel’s 69 and a card of 68 by Jack Worrester, of New York, it is predicted by ex- perts that few If any will break 70 during the actual championship play. The course is in splendid condi- tion, except for the fairways, which are A trifle fast for balls that hit the side hills. The greens are soft enough to-hold pitch shots well and are true to touch, although their undulations and slopes compel the players to exert skill and crge.
