NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1929. fi“_h_“_—_——r—hfi—_ S e R — EETETETTITRIIVETOICIHOTIT Speaking of Sports Due to the inclemency of the weather and the chill breezes that have persisted in blowing, the game acheduled between the Corbin Red Box and the Socony baseball team of New London, has been called off, Manager John Tobin stated today. In a telephone conversation with the Whaling City team manager yes- | terday, Manager Tobin dll(‘nvéred! that the New Londen team was in! the same fix as was his own and by mutual agreement, the game was put off to a later date. The Corbin Red Sox will be re- organized after a season's layoff this year. However. without a squad, %0 workouts and the entire outlook <oubtful, Manager Tobin decided that it would be a foolish move to try and play a game next Sunday. The New London man felt the same way about the matter. The Falcons have started to lay the groundwork for an extraordinary team this year. Learning that Frank ‘Wojack had decided to remain at home during the coming season, Manager Smulski lost no time in signing him as a member of the Fal- con squad. Weather permitting, the Corbin Red Sox will stage a workout at ‘Walnut Hill park tomorrow after-| noon at 2 o'clock. The Falcons will stage a practice session at St. Mary's field tomorrow | afternoon also. The club members for the season and it is expected | that a spirited workout will be en- Joyed. The Crescent A. C., through its vice president, C. F. Wagner, match- maker of the Stanley A. C., has taken a three year lease on a hall and club room at 219 Glen street from Walunty Leech. The premises will be used for meeting and ath- letic purpos Frankie O'Brien of Hartford, one of the outstanding welterweights of the New England states, put Johnny Haystock of Binghamton, N. Y, to sleep last night. Haystack claimed a foul but it was not allowed. How- ever, game as he was. Haystack was badly beaten before the finishing blow. He had gone down twice, some say without even being hit, but he still arose to his fect before the count of 10. \ Joe Zotter settled his argument with Mickey Blain last night by | winning on a technical knockout. Joe went down iwice for a count but he came back to give Blaine a terrific drubbing. Last week, both | boys put up a great fight and last night's battle was no exception to what the fans expected. Zotter has travelled a long way since he left the amateurs. He is meeting tougher opponents every time he fights and he has become one of the most popular perform- ers in a Hartford ring. FIRST WORKOUT The Cardinal baseball team will hold its first workout of the season Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at Walnut Hill park. All players |’ on last year's team and others in- terested are asked to be on hand. An awful lot of punishment has to be taken by the tires or any automobile. Glass, stones, nails, what not!
