Thomas' seminary nine of Hartford at Elizabeth park. The locals have one win over the semi- narians in a ten-inning contest and they are confident of pulling out with the bacon in tomorrow's game and retrieving some of the prestige lost to Lewls High .of Southington last Wednesday aftcrnoon. Although the team did not make | a success of the past season when out of 13 games scheduled they won only three and lost eight, the other two being cancelled because of rain, the nine of 1925 is rated as one of the best comblinations ever assem- together at the high school. Ifor fielding and hitting the team was_equal if not better, to any of the teams that walked away with victories over it, but this year there was a dearth of pitchers which fact tended 1o put the locals in the lost column on almost every attempt. In most of the games played dur- ing the season, the team had a good lcad on its opponents 'm the early sessions, but due to the opposing side finding the elants of the slab- men to their liking, and because the team had no relief piteher working well, the team was doomed to de- feat in nearly overy contest. This 18 not meant to take credit y from the pitchers because due 10 a series of unavoldable circum- stances, the team was without re- ics to the them to ymen caused some of slightly overworked. Conlin, star twirler, was the beet slabman that the team had. He, however, went through part of the season with a sprained back and | had only partly recovered from this when he was called on to face Ha ford and pitched one of the best games of his carcer. Lefty Haber, one of the eweetest outfielders ever secn on a local diamond and a regu- | lar buster at the bat, served most of the season as a relief man and | he w put into the box in some | very tight sittations. | The outstanding stars of the team | during the year were by far Neipp | and Haber. Both of them led the| batting list and both are outfielders excellent type. Politis, in his year playing with an organ- | zed team, has the makings of a| ar first sacker. Although weak | ith the willow, he got hits when they were needed. Belser, in his first year as an infielder, showed | goods all through the season. | He handled his position like a vet- | eran and until he went into a slight | mp, he was one of the leading hitters on the team. Claire at short- stop, made one of the biggest im- provements ever scen in a pla on the high schoo! team. He came | up in the batting list from around 0 to .309 and third in the list. He played regular “Rabbit” Maranville game at Darrow at third game at third and clouter until the series with Hart- when he went into a slump| others.

He hit 428 while he was in and covered the outer garden in good shape. He is a coming slab- man and should be heard from later. Claire, present short stop, 1s the only veteran on the team who will be back to play next year, Thée re- maining members will be lost to the team through June and Kebruary graduations, Some of the members of the team will be available for football next fall, but will leave tiyy school before the 1926 baseball seme son comes around. Coach Cassidy has had the faith of a saint in his team all through {he scason. Despite defeats, despite poor showing, despite everything that tended to show the team up in a poor light, he has always inaisted that he has one of the best teams in the state except that he lacked pitchers. His coaching of the indi- vidual players caused the strong combination to be molded together and followers of high gchool. base- ball depend on him to turn out a strong team next year. The record of the feam during on was not an impressive Victories were chalked wup against Troy Conference academy, . Thomas' seminary and laSal- seminary nines, These three arc among the strongest the team met during the seasqn. It fell to the lot of the team to drop games to Hartford two times, New Haven, Croshy two games, Lewis High, Southington, LaSallette seminary of Hartford and Rbxbury ecademy. An idea of the worth of the team {can be gained by the fact that the Collegiate Prep team of New Haven fought to an 11 inning tie by the Red and Gold ywhile Buckley, state champs, wereable tg win out fiom the same team by a meagre run.
