Elimingtion of several players considered leaders i the United States and Canada undoubtedly will mean a reconsideration of the rul- ing made this year llmiting the match play field to sixteen men where previously there had been 32, When Bob Gardner, Bvans, Dexter Cummings, Roy Knepper and other of the famous mid-western stars falled to obtaln places among the leaders on opening day the gallery turned to argument ss to the justice of the existing ruling, fearing that with such performances removed rom the field, the tournament will prove less attractive Francis Ouimet of Clark Corkran, of Harrison R.

The most important discussion of all will be whether the teame will have a banquet or some other sorl of an affair to mark the end of what has been éne of the most successfu] baseball leagues ever conducted hery in New Britain. Many of the players in the league are in favor of holding a banquet to mark the finish of the Beason, while others would like lg make a public affair of the presens tation of the public amusement comq mission's awards to the winners of the league. The Rangers A. C. baseball tean this year came out on top of the league, and through consistent play« ing in the last weeks of play, are the .champlions of the league. Theirs was, however, no easy row {6 hoe in the |Jeague, and the first part of the yeaw saw them nearer the bottom of the standing than the top. About mid season, the team pleked up and arten hitting its stride, nothing could &tep in the way of the Main strect boyvy in their rush for thé pennant. Next year, if the Rangers keep tos gether the lineup they have played with all this season, they should by considered serfously as a contenden for the city honors, Closely following them was the Orioles team, composed of some of the best all around baseball playerg in the city. This aggregation will fine ish it eecond season a week from next Saturday. The Orloles organized in 1924 and since that time the players have developed into a smooth working combination which it dt sticks together, will be heard from in'the future. The Dragons was another atrong combination that showed strength at times. This outfit, recruited from the Fafnir Ball Bearing Co., would have been a strong contender for the league honors 1t the lineup had re- mained intact throughout the séa. son. P. & I".
