Speaking of Sports - “Ty Cobb” Gaida who emulated tM Athletics’ star in the game be- tween the Stanley Works and Lan- ders in the Industrial league last week by getting four hits, wants a pair of sliding pads. H\ talked so much about them that §ohnny Parsons figured a good way Jo close out the conversation would be for “Ty” to really get a pair. Therefore, “Ty” was directed 10 zo to the factory hospital and usk the nurse there for a set of Aliding pads. He did but he still is looking for them. Although we were busy keeping | track of the doings in the American Legion-Y. M. C. A. game at Walnut Hill last night, we could plainly hear ! the cheering attendant on the girls’ game in progress on an indoor dia- mond just over the little knoll near Diamond No. 1. People at the center of the town wondered why all the “squeals” were coming from Walnut Hill but they were rightfully informed that they were caused by the excitement of the first game in the Girls' Indus- trial Baseball league. The Corbin Red Sox. local entry in the Central Connecticut Baseball Jeasue, Is finding it & hard and rocky way in the circuit. The Sox have met reverses at every turn since the league play started and Manager John Tobin ‘can’t dope it out. The last three games have been dropped by the Red Sox team. The Lawson who caught for the Lenox A. C. of Wallingford in the Central league game with the Red Sox last Sunday, is a son of the old time Connecticut league star, Jack Lawson, rated as one of the best catchers in these parts in years gone by. The Southington Pextos, after losing their last two games in the Central league and then an extra contest to the Plainville team, have reorganized the outfield. Starting next Sunday, the team will have Jimmy Alexander, former Fastern Leaguer; Own, an Indian, from Waterbury, and Ray Begley of this city as the regular outfield. Eddie Hackbarth will be in the catching position with Heinie Car- rington on first, Zlegler on second, Gibson on short and Becker at third. He has a year to finish his course at the University of Pennsylvania and then, if he decides to play pro- fessional baseball, he will~be under the wing of John J. McGraw of the New York Giants. His scouts have looked . Becker overs while playing with the college team and he has im- pressed thm, e or is a Waterbury boy and jie played for a number of years with the Milldale team while that organization was playing at the old Milldale diamond. The pitching staff of the Pextos hasn't yet been decided on, but the inanagement of the team has decided to get a team that will inake every otheF one in the leagué step to win. A game of games will be played next Thursday night at the Percival avenue grounds in Kensington when the Pirates of thid city clash with the Kensington Tabs in a Western lcague game. The Pirates won the first game bgtween the two, but they will have to go some to Win this week's battle. START GOLF TOURNEY Thirty-two Survivors Tee Oft Tnvita- Round of Ninth Annual tion Event. Groton, Conn,, July 12 UP—Thir- ty-two survivors of the qualifying round of the ninth annual invita- tion golf tournament of the Shene- cossett Country club here teed ofr today in the figurative wake of Miss Maureen Orcutt White Beeches, N. J, who led the fleld yesterday with an 83 for medal honors. Morc than 200 women entered the quest for the Griswold cup yes- terday and the title held for the past four years by Miss Glenna Collett of Providence, R. I. Miss Collett is not defending this year. Miss Orcutt, women's metropoli- tan title holder, lived up to her reputation as the longest driver of her sex but erratic putts cost her an even 80 or lower. 8he managed however, to finish three up on Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, who was tied at 86 with Miss B. V. Gottlief of Wolf Hollow, for second place. Mrs. Hurd's 39 going out was the best nine hole score of the day. Match play continues through .

The battle marks the first of the three big heavyweight attractions of the summer, but unlike the Dempsey at Ebbetts Field tomorrow the PAULINO AND WILLS -Sharkey elimination contest mnext week and the championship tilt in September, it holds little in store for either participant.

The New Britain Machine Girls' baseball team scored a 13 to 7 vic- | tory over the Landers, Frary &| Clark team in the opening game of | the Girls' Industrial league played | at Walnut Hill park last night. A 1arge crowd of interested spectators | viewed the battle and the chevrhw‘ | could be heard for some distance. Despite the score, the game was close and interesting. Up to the sixth | inning it was anybody's game. In that frame, the Machinesses staged | a rally and scored enough runs to | win the game. Five hits, an error and a passed ball told the story. In the Landers' half, Simmons fanned | two and took a pop fly for three | outs, shutting out the Landers team in the last half. | Miss Simmons pitched as nice a game as anyone could ask for. She | allowed four hits and fanned twelve. At the bat, she collected two solid “Have a CAMEL!” ©1927, R. J. Reynolds Tobaccs Company, Winston-Salem, N. C. smashes to left fleld, one coming | when two were on and scoriug both. In the third inning. she fanned all three batters to face her while in the fourth and fifth, she fanned four in a row. Helen Lynch, in thé box for Landers, also turned in a nice game, but lack of practice on the part of her teammates allowed many fly balls which should have been easy outs, go for hits. Helen struck out 10 batters while she scored three of her team's rums. She was the only Landers batter to meet with any success against the pitching of Sim- mons. For the victors Bystroski, Renock and Sally Kenzior led the batting attack, collecting three hits each while the great work of Frances Kenzior in the catching position de- serves a great deal of credit. The ball used in the playground type and the pitchers are throwing overhand. This makes it hard for a catcher to fill her position efficiently but Frances played a great game. the all-around work of Lynch for the losers was the outstanding feature of their play. Hahn played a nice game at short stopping two hits and starting a double play that killed a Machine rally. George Hallin officiated in a creditable manner while Freddie Saunders, official scorer, was in his glory chalking down the runs, hits and errors. The summary: LANDERS, FRARY & CLARK B. H. P.0. A. E. . Baylock, It .....3 0 0 0 0 0 WHEN it comes to best sellers, Camel leads thefi all, because by the greatest number of smokets it is considered the best cigarette. The closer the search for quality, the greater the preference for Camels. For Camel, made of the choicest Turkish and Domestic tobaccos, is supremely blended to a mellowness, mildness and individuality of taste that is beyond match- ing or imitation, If you don’t yet know its satisfying smooth- ness, just try this overwhelming favorite among cigarettes. 8.
