—_— Speaking of Sports Caaaaaadaa sl o o] The disposal of the games sched- uled Saturday afternoon in the New Britain City baseball league has buve come a problem and from all indl- cations, they will be played as per schedule at Walnut Hill park. The regional championship play- off between two American Legion teams at Walnut Hill park, will take place only on one diamond thero and this will leave the second dia- mond open for the City league games. It is proposed to play two gamss in the City league on Diamond No. 2 and the other on Diamond No. 1 after the Legion game is finished. The importance of Saturday's games in the City league, in view of the defeat of the Burritts by Holy Cross last night, cannot n: minimized and for this reason, Pres- ident Kennéth Saunders is' of the opinion that the games should be played Saturday afternoon at Wal- nut Hill park. There will be absolutely no inter- ference with the Legion playoft as the City league games will be play- ed separately and apart from this contest. The Junior City league game will probably be postponed until some evening during the following week. he three games in the City league are as follows: Senecas vs, Pirates, West Ends vs. Holy Cross and Bur- ritts vs. Cardinals. The Holy Cross team will prac- tice at the Washington diamond to- morrow evening at 6 o'clock. This is in preparation for the game with the Falcons in the City champion- ship ,seriés Sunday afternoon. Joe Tronoski of the Holy Cross team is being rated as one of the best outfielders In the city. He made a catch last night that very few of the players in the city could dupli- cate. There 1s talk in Hartford that Bat Battalino will be matched to fight Andre Routis, suspended feather- weight champion of the world, in the near future. The bout will take place, *if it is landed, at Bulkeley Stadium in Hartford and will be for the world’s 126 pound title. Battalino is also due to make his first appearange In Madison Square Garden in New York in the near future. Tom McArdle, matchmaker for the Garden, is quoted as say- ing that Battalino can appear _at Madison Square whenever he 1s ready. This bears out the predictions that Battalino would be In big time within the next two years. His clean-cut vietory over Al Brown in Hartford recently, has brought him to the attention of the Madison Square officials.
