Saratoga Springs, N.

Now this writcr does not profess to be an expert. This writer is a reporter. William Muldoon, for instance, an expert. He is undoubtedly the greatest judge of condition, p: ticularly of pugilists, that the sport has ever seen. So this writer took this expert's opinion and is here- with reporting it. “Dempsey has lost spark,” says Huldoon. “An athlete, particularly a pugil- explains Mr. Muldoon, ‘“can care for his body as studiously as he desires.

A. team in the Junior City League took another Lorrible lacing last night, this time at the hands of the Burritt Juniors. The game was playcd last night in- stead of this afternoon as sched- uled because of the Bristol-New Britain American Legion game this afternoon, and the Burritts won in seven innings by the score of 23 to 4 The game was a farce after the tirst inning. The * team tried hard to stem the tide of hits aid runs being scored by the Burritts, but after one or two attempts, the team again went to pieces and the Burritts ran wild. The game had to be called in the seventh inning to save the players on either team from complete exhaustion. The Burritts ted first and scored five runs. The “Y” team got two back in their half of the first. The Burritts aded another in the second and the “Y" team came back to add two mere in the second. Neither team scored in the third but then the “big parade” hegan. The Burritts scored five runs in the fourth and followed in the fifth with nine more the sixth saw them scoring two and the seventh one. The * team couldn’t do any- thing after the second inning. They went not only scoreless but hitless Iso. The team got two hits in the first inning and that was the sum total of the team for the game. There were no features to be re- counted because the game was so ded that there was little for ficlding plays of excep- cter.
