Tor years in 2il classes of sport, teams representing the Stanley Works have beca just on the vorge ©of winning championships but never yet have had com> tlrough. History will be made if the base- | ball team takes the championship in the Industrial league. It will be the first championship team developed at the Stanley Works plant. All the more credit must go to the team he- cause of the fact that it has won a championship in a league that has been faster and better this year than in many recent years. To us who once was among those who tried hard to put the Stanley Works in a winning position in Industrial league, the work of the team this vear is a real gratification. We have remained neutral publicly but privately we have been cheer- ing the Buttmakers on. -We hope they win tonight. The Burritt baseball team will practice tonight at 7 o'clock at the Washington school diamond. All members are asked to be present. Sunday will mark the opening of another baseball diamond in the city, the Washington school dia mond. The park force of workmen under the direction of Park Super- intendent Clyde Fllingwood, have been busy in making this diamond and a real work of baseball art has been accomplished. The Burritts and East Glastonbury team will @edicate it Sunday. Superintendent Ellingwood would like nothing better than to have the public of this city take an active in- | terest in the work being done by his | department. Since the change in sentiment and outlook in the local Standing park department wherein the parks W L ere now regarded as recreation | Toronto 66 4 grounds for the public, great work | Montreal 60 54 has been carried on.

He was a member of the New Haven club last year. Near the end of the season he deserted baseball for the heavyweight division in boxing and in his first fight he was kayoed in the first round. He enlisted in the navy on July 14. He disappeared on July 16 and his body was found on July 21.

Aug. 10.—(UP) —The state of Connecticut has no grounds on which to prosecute Ired Stone in connection with his air- plane crash at Groton a week ago, according to State Aviation Com- missioner Clarence M.

Ordinarily, a Con- necticut student’s license would have been required before making a legal #olo flight.
