Joe is a student at the Maryland college in Balti- more and is expected to arrive home today. Merwin Jacobson got one out of three in the game between Toronto and Buffalo yesterday. Toronto won the contest 1 to 0. The account of the game reads: “Successive singles by Burke, Jacobson and Hargrave in the first inning accounted for the only run of the game.” Merwin might not have been good enough to stay with Brooklyn, but he is cer- tainly making his mark with the Toronto club. Leave,it to Manager John Tobin of the Corbin Red Sox baseball team to always have an eye out for the welfare of the players on his team. Following the unfortunate accident suffered by Walter Berg in the game between the Sox and the Collinsville team two weeks ago, Manager Tobin sought wa and means of relfev- ing the distress suffered by the big pitcher. Ha solved the dilemma by having the Collinsville team which plays a Western league game here tomor- row, agree to have the proceeds go as a benefit to Berg. This shotld be an incentive for more fans to turn out for the game. A mistaken impression seems to Lave been made in Kensington with stence there of two baseball $ the All-Kensington and Tabs’ teams. It seems that some people have the idea that the second team was tormed for the purpose of “bucking” the older and senior or- ganization. An Inquiry into the situation re- veals the fact that between the two teams exlsts the greatest of harmony simply because of the fact that they t in two widely separated classes, The All-Kensington team is a senior organization formed to represent the town in the sport of baseball as a town team. The Tabs’ team is a junior organ- | ization composed of young and com- ing stars who are not yet in the class of players required by the All- Kensington team. The outfit was organized by Pat Buckley, last year manager of the older team, and fits purpose is simply to develop players who In the years to come will be able to take the places of those passing out of the picture on the All-Kensington club. Lovalty is the outstanding trait of the men and women in Kensington who back up sporting enterprises and it would be a shame und a hard blow to baseball were dissen- slon to split the solid ranks of fans there. Without divulging confidence of any sort, it might be well to state that Pat Buckley is probably more interested—and his interest is morej| abstract than just mere love of the national game—than any other in. dividual in Kensington. Should he be *“bucking” the Athlatic club, he would be hurting himself, Both Dan Malarney, manager of \l-Kensington club and Pat organizer, deplore the statements made in various quar- bout the baseball situation. Jack Glana who manages the Tabs’ team, is also treasurer of the Ath- lotic club and if ene were pulling against the other, he would be in an impossible position. To our minds, there is no other tawn of its size and fow places many times larger than Kensington, in the entire state of Connecticut that con- taing so many good sportsmen than the place which boasts the home of the Amerlcan Paper Goods. Com-| ing through for the past few years | When the baseball outlook has been | anything but bright, the Kensington team has grown to bs among the best in this section. Knowing the peoplein the town as we do, the present Aurry causes us rather to smile than to worry. We can picture the inhabitants of the town turning out in larger num- hers to the games each Sunday and whether or not the season fs a suc- coss, Kensington will still be on the baseball map with a big dot svhen those of us who are now living. have passed away. We don‘t know of any two hetter fellows than Dan Malarney and Pat Ruckley, Dan pretty nearly owns the Paper Goods, they say, while Ruckley's name is synonymous with “macaroni.” Tt necessary, hoth the paper factory and the macaroni fac- tory will go on the auction.block to keep basehall in Kensington, we be- lieve, so it will be only wasted time for anyone who tries to sow the seeds of discontent or dissension among the players or fans in the sough end.
