NEW BRITAIN- DAILY HERALD, WEDNES-DAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1930. Speaking of Sports T There will be a meeting of th: managers of the teams in the Senior City league tomorrow ewening 1n City Hall. There will be some im- portant business to transact andsthe league's affairs for this season wiil be wound up. 1 The league has a comfortable treasury this season. During the two series games, played with the P. & F. Corbin team, the league re- ceived as much money as was col- lected all the year round. One of the questions to be decided tomor- row night is the disposition of this money. ‘We are in hopes that the league officials for the season just closing. though the action may have no bearing at all on the league of next year, will vote in favor of a series with the Industrial league winner as an annual affair. If this were un- derstood at the opening of each sea- son by both leagues, it would be something towards which the fans could look as the league season pro- gressed. The Kensington baseball team will go to Wallingford next Sunday to meet the Lenox A. C. team there. 'This game will' be another to be played on a percentage basis and all players are asked to be on hand. Manager Edward Moore of the Kensington crew would like to hear from someone in New Britain with regard to an all star team and a series with Kensington. He suggests that the all stars be picked from the ranks of the ' Industrial and Senior City leagues. The East Bristol Pioneers, a foot- ball aggregation, would like to schedule road games with any team in the state averaging 135 to 159 pounds. Those interested should communicate with John Davitt, 241 Broad street, Forestville, Conn. Fight fans in this and other cities in the state, are already speculating on the chances of both Louis (Kid) Kaplan, former featherweight cham- pion, and Bat Battalino who now wears the spangles discarded by Kaplan, The two are scheduled to meet in what will probably be the last big outdoor shot of the season in Hartford on September 24. ' Kaplan will have to make less than 132 pounds according to the agreement. The general idea prevailing is that Kaplan, it him to be strong at the required it be possible for | Baseball Standing AMERICAN LEAGUE Games Yesterday New York 8, Cleveland 6.

Bancroft, who has been managing the Giants for almost two months, was banished for protesting decisions, and the Giants finished the game under the command of Irish Meusel, former outfiglder. Manager Joe McCarthy of the Cubs refuses to concede that his team has given up the battle. “I won't say the Cubs will win the pennant,” he said, “but I'll say trhat they'll fight to the very last ditch. ~ There is no truth to the rumors that the Cubs are fighting among themselv My confidence in the Cubs is as strong as ever.” WHITE S0X GET SOUTHERN STAR Luke Appling Paid 85,000 for Signing Contract Atlanta, Sept. 10 (P—Luke Ap- pling, crack Oglethorpe university halfback, had no fear that he his confidence has paid him $5,000.

Also Planned New York, Sept. 10 (P)—Directors of both companies have agreed upon a plan for acquisition of control of Parmelee Trapsportation Co. by the Checker Cab Manufacturing Corp., the largest single stockholders. The transaction also contemplates acquisition of the capital stock of Motor Cab Transportation Co., oper- lating 2,050 cabs in New York city, in exchange for 58,477 shares of Checker Cab Manufacturing common stock. Checker Cab already owns $1.442 000 of outstanding debentures of Parmelee Transportation, all of the $1,000,000 of preferred stock, 23,000 shares of common stock and war- rants for the purchase of 93,425 ad- ditional shares of common. It is planned to transfer the stock of Pa stribling. | in which John J. Raskob is one of | ‘return for 422,787 shares of com- | mon stock of Parmelee.

He must have assurance he will not be “mauled” by police in an ef- fort to force a confession from him: he muet be interviewed only in the presence of his attorney: he must b either booked for murder or giver his freedom and a clear bill of healtt within 24 hours; and he must not be turned over to Judge John H. Lyle who & year ago sentenced him to a year in jail. for gun toting—a sen- tence Forsythe never served. The state's attorney has not agreed to accept Forsythe's terms; but has taken steps to accomplish his arrest independently. PROS START MATCHES Flushing, N.

Albany 9-6, Springfield 3-4. Standing INE HAD SO MuUCH pect to remain champion very long. Notwithstanding the speculations of the fans, the bout between Kap and Bat appears to be the best natural this state has seen in some time. Members of the betting gen- try will have plenty of opportunity to pick their favorites before the night of the fight. Another result of the depression every line of business is suffering as the present time is the announce-| ment that has been expected for several weeks now that the Stanley Arena would be turned into an in- door miniature golf course. We understand that articles have been signed between owners and the promoters of the scheme with the | | leasing term. running for a fairly long This means that basketball and roller hockey will either have to find new homes or pass out of the picture. Tasketball may ferred «.lher to the state armory or to the Tabs Hall but the polo sit- uation is entirely different. ‘We understand that the Nation-| 81 Guard authorities frown on the idea of roller hockey being played in the armories throughout the state and if this is so, then there is one place remaining the Tabs hall. clety will favor the playing of the game in their hall considering the wear and tear on the building, is one thing that they alone will hitve to decide. If they put down bn it, then thé game moves from the city. We suppose that the owners of the Stanley Arena are, as it were, holding to the old adage that “a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” Uncertainty as to the returns on their hall from sports during the next winter and the fact that they have leased their place at satisfactory terms with the money a certain reality, have led them to allow the arena to be con- verted into a golf course. The movement will probably please those who are interested in the game of putt-putt but it will certainly disappoint those sports followers who have been faithful followers of the various sports viewed, at the Stanley Arena the past few seasons. WELL OUT OF GAME Cleveland, Sept. 10 (A—Lulke Se- well, veteran catcher for the Clevy land Indians, will be out of the game for the rest of the season.

Thanks to the wise hurling of Clarence Mitchell, 39 vear old south- paw who was cast off by the Cards carlier in the year, the Giants have moved back into a dangerous posi- tion. DMitchell, last of the southpaw spit-ball pitchers, held the Cards to 7 hits and allowed but two men to reach second as he pitched the Giants to a 2-1 victory, breaking St. Louis’ 7-game winning streak.
