Speaking of Sports Right away we want to go on record as being in favor df an an- nual series between the pennant winnérs in the Industrial and City bageball leagues. A series was tried out for the first time this season and it ended Saturday with the Corbin team taking its . second straight victory from the Sokols. That the fans of this city are in favor of the series, unanimously, was proved to everybody's satisfac- tion by the attendance at the two games played. Nearly 5,000 people were present at the game Saturday safternoon. Not so large a crowd 'was present at the opening game last Tuesday night. No matter which team won or which team lost, the series is a thing that should be on the annual base ball program. When the sehedules of both circuits are arranged, care shéuld be taken that time enough is allowed for the playoff and the teams in the two leagues should en- ter the race with this in view. We know that the fans of the city got a great-kick out of the two games. There was a double barrel- ed kick in Saturday's contest be- cause it had in it all the elements that go to make up a baseball gam. uncertainty, excitement and plenty of good and bad baseball. The idea was originatad several years ago by James J. Naughton, member of the public amusement commission but not until this sea- son did the reality occur. Only two games were played but every fan who attended got his fill of baseball. To our minds only one thing was geriously wrong with the series. Thet was the fact that the series was over too quickly. We could sit in on games of this sort for a long time to come without being bored. Seriously speaking, however, we hope that the two leagues, the In- dustrial and City leagues will go on record as favoring the series at the end of the regular playing sea- son. . Except for the windup of the semi-pro series which is being wag- ed between the Burritts, Sacred Hearts and Holy Cross teams, baso- ball is about done in these parts. It will also be over this month except for the world series. Then comes tootball. Despite the pessimistic predictions concerning roller hockey for next &eason, the league managers staged their annual talkfest in Hartford yesterday with the result that op- timism prevails regarding the out- look for another season. Only New Britain and Meriden are left to carry on for Connecticut while four other teams and possibly six others will be in New York state. The Arute brothers, owners of the New Britain franchise, had already stated that they would have a team here this coming seasop, even it they had to play exhibitlon games if no league was to be formed. The season will probably be a slim one but the local owners plan to go through with the season no matter what" happens: They will certainly have the support of local fans. .

Mathematically speaking, four clubs still can win the International league pennant but three of them might be willing to sell their| chances for next to nothing. Rochester holds first place today | by a margin of six games over Bal- | timore, 10 1-2 over Montreal and 12 1-2 over Toronto. Of these clubs, Rochester and Baltimore have 14 games Pet to play, Montreal 13 and Toronto 15 so that it is mathemati- cally possible for any one of the four to win.* For all practical pur- poses, however, both Canadian teams can be regarded as definitely out of the race and Baltimore only a rank outsider. Baltimore won four games over | the week-end but picked up only| half a game on the Redwings who made only three starts, and won them all. The Redwings beat Montreal twice yesterday, 6-4 and 2-1. Jim Collins broke up the first game with a home run in the 10th inning with Billy Southworth on base. John Berly outpitched John Po- morski in.tRe nightcap by a slender margin. Pomorski was the victim of home run drives by Martin and Col- lins. Collins made two homers giv- ing him a total ot 38 for the season. Baltimore took a double bill from Jersey City, 12-4 and 9-4. The Ori- oles clouted Miner for 14 solid blows | in the opener and collected 12 more off Moore and Pitt in the second. Luther Roy pitched a steady game for the Orioles in the first game while Jim Weaver's relief hurling was a high spot of the nightcap. Joe Hauser hit his 60th homer of the season in the opener. Newark whipped Reading, 10-4, for the third straight time. The Bears collected 16 hits, including six doubles, off four Reading pitch- ers and the result was never in doubt after the opening inning when they broke through for four runs. Joe Harris' home run with two- on in the third inning was the big blow of Toroento's 5-3 victory over Buffalo. Bridgeport Allentown Albany Springfield CARNERA VS. McCARTHY Newark, N.

This was the third victory of the vear of the Franklins over their opponents. The Eurekas were scheduled to play a doubleheader and ‘the contest was called in the seventh inning.

SETS NEW REGORD Hack Wilson, Slugging Cub Outfield- er, Has Driven in Total of 163 Runs This Year. New York, Sept. 8 (P—Hack Wil- son, clubbing outfielder for the Chi- cago Cubs, has established a new National league record for rung batted in for one season. ‘Wilson now has driven in 163 runs, compared to the league record of 159 he set last season. With 18 games vet to go, Wilson has a chance to eclipse the major league record of 175 established by Lou Gehrig of the New York Yankees in 1927. |Athletics At California U. Net $225,000 During Year Berkeley, Sept. 8 (UP) — Net | profits of nearly $225,000 were yield- |ed by departmental operations of the Associated Students of the Uni- versity of California during the year ending May 31, 1930, according to auditor's reports revealed today. Athletics as usual brought in a major share of the total profits: $241,250, the report shows. While activities such as the cafeteria, stu- dent publications and store raised the total considerably, activities sup- ported for other than"commercial reasons brought the grand total down. TFootball alone of all sports shows a profit. 788, but all major and minor sports were conducted at the expense of this sport. The gross income from grid contests was $659.304, of which more than $182,000 in guarantees went to opponents who played in the California Memorial stadium. A wide variety of expenses and the retire- ment of scrip were responsible for bringing down the total. The profits will ind immediate use, in the retirement of part of the association’s obligation 6f more than $1.125,000 for the purchase and im- provement of land in the area south- west of the campus where-an exten- sive athletic development is in prog-* ress and for the ASUC share in the cost of the Eshleman Memorial Pub- lications building. Judge Crater’s Trail Is Still Hard to Follow York, Sept. 8 (UP)—Su- preme Court Justice Joseph F. Crater was as completely out of sight today as when he disappeared more thap a month ago after cash- ing checks for $5.000. Police have traced down all re- ports that he has been seen and New found them without foundation. The | missing jurist's friends and rela- tives can furnish no clue. There is no apparent motive behind the act, and yet there are indications it was planned. Hope that Mrs. Crater could give information that would aid the search faded when a detective 1n- terviewed her at the Crater sum- mer home at Belgrade Lakes. Me.

The net profit was $396,- | Drama, the gripping. seething drama of the diamond, with its un- expected happenings, it uncertain- ties and all its excitement, was en- acted at Walnut Hill part Saturd; afternoon when the Industtial Le: gue champions, P. & F.

The final score was 12 to 11 but the fig- ures tell nothing of the bitter fight waged by both . teams for suprema- cy or the intense excitement tivat: | gripped the crowd of more than | 4,500 spectators wh6 watched the | battle from vantage points about | Diamond No. 1. * - Brow-beaten in the first and last parts of the game, the resourceful Corbin combination staged a great| comeback through brainy strategy to score enough runs in the ninth |inning to secure a two-run lead. | Then, with the Sokol sky blue and | dark, Partyka, erstwhile pitcher but first baseman in Saturday's game, electrified the throngs witha hit .to the first diamond that only for the fast fielding of “Goodie” Preisser, would have been a home run. As Tronoski was on base and | scored on the hit, Partyka's scor- | ing would have tied the count and | probably have sent the game into | extra innings. As it was, he died on | third base when Zapatka lifted a b W W 1 P! base. b Wright Hero of Game Jack Wright, veteran Corbin | catcher, one of the hardest hitters in | the city a few years back, emerged |as the outstanding hero of | the game. THe life of a pinch hitter |18 anything but rosy and Wright was picked for this role in the first half of the ninth inning. One man was out, Huber was on second and Bergeron was on first. Wright foul- ed off two, had three balls on him when ' he picked one of Brooks' fast ones and wallopped it between center and right field for three The score at this time was 9 in favor of the Sokols. The two | runs put Corbins in the lead by one run. Heinzman then was put into the game, taking Wright's posi- tion on third and he scored when | Lipka sent a double to left field. The two runs were enough to win. From the first to the last inning, the game seethed with excitement. The Sok#ts scored one run in the first, anather in the second and their third cognter in the third. Scorless for three innings, the Cor- bin team opened up in the fourth | and. coupled with a bad throw into | center field by Sullick, tied the count with a threé-run' rally. Loafing Counts Heavily The Sokols went scoreless in the fourth and the Corbin team got a four run lead in the fifth through a caraless bit of outfield play by the Sokols. Loafing on hit balls by players has always been dangerous and when Charlie Kredar failed to | get going on a high, long fiy by Huber into left field, the ball drop- ped clear for a triple and then Kredar threw badly to third allow- ing Huber to score. The hit result- ed in four runs as the bases were | loaded with two out when the hit| was made. The ball went a miM! high and Ketedar started on a lope for it. He misjudged”it. turned and could still have covered it had he | extended himself. ‘As it wac, the play was one of the poorest of the game and it might have been the turning point that gave the Corbin team the verdict. Another hit and an error in the sixth gave the Cor- bin team still another run and the score stood § to 3 in its favom The Sokols got one back in the sixth and still another in the seventh, while Corbins got one in the first | | of the eighth. | Corbins Get Shaky ; Then came the unexpected.
