| 23323 Speaking of Sports The majority of the fans of this city are going to be mightily disap- | pointed if the city champlonship play isn't carried through. It ap- pears at the present very dubious that the teams will mect because of the results of the meeting of the three managers last night. The Falcons feel that they and| Kensington are entitled to a larger share of the money which would be taken in, than the Corbin Red Sox, because both the Falcons and the Kensington team own home dia- monds and they are under heavy ob- ligations to meet their expenses. They nfade a proposition to John Tobin, representative of the cham- pions of last year, offering him a| 45 and 35 per cent split. The larg- er share would 7o to his team if he won and the smaller, if he lost. This, Manager Tobin flatly refused to con- | sider and the meeting rested dead- locked until a conference can be | held with the boar dof directors of the Falcon club. John Tobin offered to play the Falcons at the Pioneer fleld on the same basis, saying that he would spend enough money to put the field | in shape. Ho stated that at the be- | ning of the season he had the chance to take over the Pioneer field for home games, but he turned down the proposition because he didn't want to interfere with the success of elther the Falcons or the Ken- | sington club. | | This will be reported back to the Faleon directors and whether any- thing will come of it or not is a question. Manager Pat Buckley of the Ken sington team refused absolutely to | get into the argument. He stated | that as far as he was concerned, hfi" had no argument with either team but would stand back of the agree- ment he made at the first meeting of the managers. He wants to see the series plaved and he believes the fans of this city want to see the championship decided. The Orioles have finally with- drawn from the City league and the Speedboys have been accepted to fill in for them. The Speedboys will take up the ohligations, as it were, of the Otioles including the standing in the Jeague and the scheduled games of the Orfoles. They will start this Afternoon against the Robins, The American TLegion baseball| team will meet the T.anders team of the Tndustrial league next Tues- day night at 5 o'clock at Walnut Hill park.

Play in the first district champion- ship will be started probably next week. The managers of the thres teams entered, New Britain, Derlin and Bristol, will meet at the Fddy- Glover post rooms Tuesday evenin at 8 o'clock to discuss the proposi- tion. | The use of substitute runners | seems to be overdone in the City | league. Almost every team has at least one alleged cripplg who must have someone run for him, while the thought of a pitcher tiring him- self out running around the bases seems to be abgolutely abhorrent to | the captains and managers. Thus. | when a pitcher or a semi-cripple reaches first base, a request for a | runner is immediately made to the opposing captain, and he of course picks out the most snail-like man on the bench for the job, %o that Ititle it anything is gained. In one game | a player was relieved by a runnc | and a few seconds later went in t run for the next man, | The Stanley Works baschall team | is out to take the measure of the, league leading Landers teaim this afternoon in the Industrial league play at Willow Brook park. Accord- ing to the latest report. the. Butt- makers are to have Jack Scott and Schroeder as ite battery this after- | noon. This means work for Lan- dets and the Stanley Works fizured | on setting down the league leaders. The Industrial league play s fast | coming to a close. After today. four | more Saturday games are scheduled and then the season will come to a close. | The City league also comes to close shortly after the TIndustriai| league, in fact the exact date on‘ which the Clty league finlshes play| is September 11. It wonld be a good | thing if the champions of the In- dustrial league and the champions of the City league would get together and play off a serfes to decide the| supremacy between the two teams. TEAMS MEET TODAY New Britain Tennis Club Plays Postponed Match Against Edge- wood Club of New Haven, The New Britain Tennis club {s playing the Edgewood club of New Haven this afternoon at the club courts on Lincoln Road in the last matches of the Central Connecticut tournament. The locals have fortj- fled themselves with several snappy practice sessions and are ready to meet the team that is considered one of the strongest in the state, The match was originally schedul- ed for last Saturday afternoon but due to rain, was postponed until to- day. The locals will use the same team as was picked for last Satur- day and hope to come, throngh as suce: ully today as they did two weeks ago against Bristol when thoy took the six matches from the Bel) City aggregation, A large number of spectators is | expected to attend.
