He didn’t al make the proper play. Certain experts questioned his smartness. The 1925 model Al Simmons arrived over night From an un- polished busher, he stepped into the big show this vear a real star. Simmons still pulls at the plate but that means nothing to Connie Mack and opposing pitchers. “Just one of those natural hitters whose gtyle is not graceful but most effective. You know Hans Wagner was far from the poetry of motion when at bat,” says Connie. { For the first b0 games of the pres- ent s n, practically one-third of the campaign, Simmons boasted a 400 batting average, just 100 points better than his mark of last geason, Simmons first attracted major league attention hecause of his bat- ting.

Inability to hit in the pinches proved to be the downfall of the Pirates in thelr tiit with the Meri- den Mohawks yesterday and the lo- cals came home whitewashed to the tune of 6 to 0. Nagle and “Slim" Politls both pitched wonderful ball with Nagle getting the better of the argument through the timely hitting of his mates, Politis, formerly with the Pirates, joined the team for this game yes- terday. He is hitched up with Ken- sington and had a day off yester- day, In the first three innings, the Corsalrs had the bases populated but were unable to put across the timely punch. The Meriden team scored all of its runs in two good innings. Hall and Weir were the leading stickers for the locals while Gau- dette wielded the willow in good shape for the Mohawks. Grip made the star catch of the game, snatch- ing Gaudette's long drive to right off the fence. The summary: PIRATES S e 2 Conway, Jasper, Wier, Rengle, Sheehan, Grip, rt Hall, ¢ .

The South church baseball team of this city opened its season Sat- rday afternoon at Lake Compounce by handing the Bristol Baptist church a 24-6 walloping. The Hard- ware City hboys jumped on the Bristol hurlers’ offerings for 12 runs in the opening stanza and were never in danger after that. The vic- tors used their entite squad of players, and all hit solidly and field- ed with precision. The Bristol team recovered in the last innings and made things mere interesting.

' When a Feller Needs a Friend LIRGE GROWD AT LEAGUE OPENING Dragons, Rangers and Burritts Pull Out With Victories ——— The New Britaln City lengue open- ed Baturday at Walnut Hill park with three games which were play- ed before a large crowd. The play- ers of the teams entered in the league staged a parade from the Y. M. C. A, building on Main street fo the park and there on Diamond No. 1, Mayor Angelo Paonessa threw out the first ball while on Diamond No. 2, Commissioner James Naugh- ton of the public amusemént com- mission did the Thonors. In' the games, the Dragons, Orlolés and Rangers scored victories, but the contests were all, well played and interesting to watch. Orloles—Dragons The Dragons started seoring in the first inning when three counters were registered on a walk to Cor- bin, a double by Fitzpatrick, a walk to Kinure, a pass to Blanchard and a fumble by Warlickl, The Orloles returned the compliment a few min- utes later by scoring two runs in the first half of the second. Twe men were out when gnderson hit Nelson with one of his shoots. Klemas then got up and poked out his first two base ply of the game, Nelson on second by virtue of a passed ball, scored on the hit. Bucherri poked one at Kinure on shortstop, but the Dragon infielder let it go through his legs and Klemas counted at the plate. The Orioles were playing good ball and after holding down the Dragons in the second, they came back and scored three more in the third. Luke walked and went to second when Anderson threw wild to first. Trono- sky sacrificed him to third. Rakow- ski went to first when he was hit by a pitched ball. J. Cosgrove lined ont a single to left and Luke count- ed with Rakowski going to third on the play. Cosgrove stole second. Rakowski scored, Warlicki's poke got through short but Bosgrove was caught trying to make home, War- lickl scored .on Klemas' gecond two bagger. A foul fly te the catcher ended the inning with the score § to 3 in favor of the Orioles. Everything wa$ serené untfl the fifth when a walk to Keehner; a walk to Al Blanchard and’ Fergu- son’s single scored two more for the Dragons, tying the score. Then came the sixth, destined to spell de- feat for the Orioles. In this frame, the Dragons scored seven in all. An- other walk to Keehner, a single by Fitzpatriok, a double by, Al Blanch- ard, a double hy Ferguson, a single by Tommy " Blanchard, a walk to Kormier ‘and Andetdon's kingle, tells thé story. Tolll was pftching in this frame and he was relieved by Salak. The Orioles pulled a rally in the ninth, but they were able to score only three runs. Zack got a dou- ble into left, Rakowski walked.
