Speaking of Sports The New Britain police depart- ment baseball team has started seri- ous practice for the two coming games with the Meriden team and Manager Tommy Dolan is pushing the squad so that the players will all be in shape for a pair of real battles. Reports are current about the city that the local depertment will ap- pear in the games resplendent |1 new uniforms. These are to be pur- chased through a fund organized by the lawyers in the city. It is said that the attorneys, th~ most deeply interested fans in the city in the police team, rooting hard for the local nine and their action in getting them new uni- forms, means that they are backing the team to win. The Meriden team is stronger than ever this year and the team wants to make a clean sweep of the serles with New Britain. Last year the home and home series ended in a ! tie with each team winning one game. This year both managements have predicted a clean sweep. The Stanley Works baseball team faces a critical test tonight at 5:30 o'clock in the Industrial Baseball league when it faces the Stanley, Rule & Level crew. A win for the Stanley Works will put the team in a deadock for first place with the P. & F. Corbin nine while a loss will practically give the Corbins the championship. The Stanley Rule team in its last few games has made itself the most featured aggregation in the league and the turn of events that brings it | against the Stanley Works, is one of those things that happens. Big Jim Scott will most probably be on the mound for the Stanley Works tonight while either Billy Wolfe and Bily Schmidt will do the work for the Stanley Rule. This will be one of ths most bitter bat- tles of the season and there isn't any doubt but that every rooter will be out to back his favorite tonight. The football season will be upon us before we know it but the offi- cials of the All-New Britain team are wide awake to the fact that the season will open in anothér couple ot months. New Britain seems assured of an excellent team this year. “Red” O'Neil has declared that he is in a receptive mood for an offer frgm the lLiome town club. Gratton O’Connell of Bristol is another likely player with New Britain. Jim Manning and the other Fordham players are yet to be heard from but there are plenty of good football players around who will probably be given the opportun- ity to sign up. The management this year will in- sist on a practice once a week. This has been the rule in past years but it has never been enforced. A player who cannot attend practice once a week will not be on the team this season. Play for rankings in the New Britain Tennis club continues on. Yesterday Murdoek in a sensational match, defeated Louis Vogel and thereby set himself in No. 6 place. The scores of the match were §-6 and 6-4. Duncan stands in fifth place by virtue of his win over Christensen. Van Oppen stands in seventh place by defeating Christensen, and Vogel now is No. 8. The other rankings are as follows: Kirkh. !, No. 1, Dressel No. 2, A. Benson No. 3, and Lienhard No. 4. The Ce.liers almost won a ball game in the Junior City league last night but they didn't seem to want it. In the second inning they com- hined two hits with am error and still had oniy one man on base at a time. Bardel singled but ,over- slid second on a steal. Kolodziej s safe and worked around to hird, hut Florkowski worked the anclent hidden ball play on him and tagged him off the bag. So Zar- ecki’'s hit was wasted and the game was tossed away.

The game was a pitchers’ battle between Pierkowski and Golas on one side and Potts on the other, with Golas proving the. most effective of the ithree. He developed a wild streak lin the last innings, but his curves were unhtitable and he fanned {eight men in five innings. Potts also the way, but his poor handling of bunts contributed largely to his own downfall. The Laurels got the jump in the third inning and for a while it seemed that they were to win a ;game at last. Two errors, a force I hit, anda wild pitch brought Potts in, and then Osipowicz drew a free ticket and Bardek was safe gn Florkowski's error. Kolodziej slash- jed a wicked liner over third base and the ball went through Toczko for the circuit, making it 5-0. A double error by Potts, a walk, and Golas' single gave the winners two runs in the fourth. Golas relisved Pierkowski when the Laurels rame to bat, and for four innings he held the tail-end- ers hitless, The Colliers were not i doing much thémselves, but in the eighth they came through and took a7 5 lead. Kolodziej dropped Pot- fiy and Pierkowski and Tocz- o followed with hits. Skonieezny went out, but Haher was safe on Coveleskie's error. Florkowski bunt- ed and was safe when the play went vainly to the plate, Cabay also tacrificed and Florkowski counted when Bardek threw wildly in a rundown. between bases. The Laurels made one on a hit by Osipowicz and Kolodziej's triple. but the Colliers pushed ahead In the ninth on hits by Pierkowski and Skonieczny and Kozloski's fum- ble. Then came the wild finish. With one gone Golas lost control and passed Potts. Galati batted for Tlis and shot one at short too hot for Cabay to handle. Coveleski fanned, but the bases were filled when Stempien fumbled Osipo- wicz's roller. Bardek waited for ihree and two and walked, Poots being forced home. The tving run was on third when the hard-hitting Kolodziej came to hat. He smashed a bounder over Golas' head, but Plerkowski stahbed for it and ran jover to second for the final out. The batting of Kolodziej and sev- eral nice eatches by Osipowicz were features. The box score: COLLIERS AR. R. H.PO AF Toczko. 1 .
