Speaking of Sport ST AT LRI S ot There never was a better game of baseball played in the city of New Britain than that between the Para- dise Park and Washington teams at Walnut Hill, park yesterday after- noon, In which fthe Paradise boys won out and thereby took the cham- plonship of the Boys' Rotary league. The game was witnessed by a large crowd of spectators and nej- ther side lacked for ronters. Of course, there were some of the spec- tators, as usual, who did nothing but lay it on to the umpires all after- noon, but the arbiters, Ross and Noonan, turned in a neat game, Umpire Rass in the eighth inning rendered n weird decision. Semco was pitching for the Washington team and no one was on base. Al- exander was hatting and Semeco made a balk. Tmmediately Umpire Ross waved Alexander to first base. A careful perusal of the rules fails te reveal wherein a batter can take his base on 2 balk, and we think that Ross slipped up on this one. | The runner stranded on second, so it didn't make any difference in the ncoring, TRoss umpired behind the plate with a mask and no chest protector and he had courage, Four times during the game he caught foul tips on his chest, and the pitchers were not throwing them very easy. He shook them off, however, and stuck | to his post, | Larry Mangan has heen putting the Paradise Park through its paces and the results of its work showed {tself in yesterday's game. The park boys were well drilled and were on their toes every minute. Washington was unable to penetrate the defense of the team to any great extent and, although a three-run rally was staged in the ninth, enough runs were not scored ‘o tie or win. ‘The Paradise Park team will now enjoy the fruits of the victory. They will be the guests of the Rotary club at a luncheon to be given at the Hotel Burritt and on Oct. 3 will he taken to New York city to watch the game between the Yankees and the Athletics.
