NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1930. _— Speaking of Sports The state duckpin bowling league is swinging into real, warm action with Rogers’ Recreation Five being among the leaders. The local aggre- gation compares favorably with the strongest quintets in the entire league and backers here are already picking the Hardware City crew to come through for a championship. Last night, the New Britain team received a - slight setback at the hands of the Meriden team but to- night presents another opportunity for the locals to even the score and predictions are that the Rogers five will do the same to Meriden as Grant did to Lee on the occasion of their last meeting. The married men of Lexington lodge, I. O. O. F., will be out sev- eral shekels tomorrow night when they act as hosts to the single men of the lodge at a dinner. This Is the result of the decisive base- ball game staged between the two teams of the lodge last Sunday morning at Willow Brook park. The married men spent all their energy on the game the previous ‘week and the singles took them over the hurdles last Sunday morning. At least, used to home cooking and. plenty of it, the single men can be assured of a good piece de resistance when the married boys step into the role of chefs. A good time will be had by all. While the world series is occu- pyving the attention of the baseball world as a whole, the local series between Kensington and Johnny Cabay’'s All Stars is occupying the center of interest locally. Starting next Sunday, the baseball season will start overlapping the football season. Baseball enthusiasts figure that the are still one or two dates on which the,game can be played. The Rams, who, apparently are the successors to the Nutmegs in the local professional football fleld, will open the season Sunday after- noon at Willow Brook park against the Thomaston Ponies. Wocott, the wild man of the plains on the Nutmeg team last season, will not be with New Britain this - year. He has become a member of the Fitton A. C. eleven of Boston. New Britain's loss with respect to him, is Boston's gain. Ralph Buckley also will be among the missing. He has become & regular member of the Stapleton 8. 1. team. New Britaln may hoop up for a game with the Stapes again this season. The local team has always furnished good opposi- tion for the Staten Island eleven. ‘We have ‘a letter here for the manager of the Pawnee Football club. It can ‘be secured by chlling at the sports:desk. We would ask rep- resentatives of the team to call dur- " ing worklhg hours. Tt fsn't likely that the New Brit- ein High school team will play this | coming Saturday unless a last min- ute game is secured. At the present time, no opponent has been signed up. PALAGE OPENING DRAWS BIG GROWD New Britain to Have Second Entry in State Bowling League The official opening of the Palace Bowling alleys filled the spacious hall to capacity with bowling fans gathered together last night. In the feature match gamo played, New Britain defeated the Charter Oak five two out of three games. Tddie Anderson, bowling in place of Joe Foote, hit high with 350. Val Gay, manager of the Sacred Heart alleys, who, with Manager DeLucco, bowled for Hartford, hit high three strings for the Capital City wih 842, I'ollowing the match, a banquet was held at Charlie’s Grill and more than 60 bowling fans attended. These included Phil Phibault, presi- dent of the Connecticut State Bowl- ing League' and John DeRidder, president of the National Duck Pin Bowling association of Hartford. New Britain will have a second representative in the Connecticut State Duckin League. At the ban- quet last night it was announced that the Palace Five will take the place of Fred Teller's five of Meri- den. The Silver City aggregatioa dropped out during the past week. The local team will roll its first game tonight at Wallingford and the first home match will be staged here Friday night. The Palace Five will be as follows: Val Gay, Murphy, Leo, Salvo, Zucchi, How- arth and Richter.

Rogers Recreation Five, New Britain's entry in the State Duckpin Bowling league, were defeated last night by the Casino five in Meriden in a league match. The Meriden out- fit scored victories in the first two games by sina but New Britain came through to tiie the third game. As it was, although the Silver City quintet took two out of three games, New Britain was ahead in total pin- fall. New Britain had 1,774 to 1,- 761 for Md®iden. Joe Tronosky hit high single with a mark of 148, but John Kloss with his violin cases, was the outstand- ing hero, hitting 380 for three strings. New Britain has & chance to get revenge tonight as the Casino Five rolls at Rogers alleys here. The lo- cal team is out to even the score with Jack Neil's quintet. Plenty of interest is centered in the match. The scores: JIMMY FOXX Three reasons why the Dhila baseman; Mickey Cochrane, catcher, MICKEY_COCHRANE delphia Athleti and Al are favored in the Simmon s, left fielder.

The calmness of the hitters, and thelr proven ability to get going in a short series, is one of the main reasons why the Athletics are favor- ed to emerge from the coming serle again as world's champions. The big hitters are many who have flopped in a world's seri They begin with Ty Cobb, one of the greatest batters of all time, who never was able to do anything in his world's series days with Detroit.

He appeared against Jack | Demave, 207, 4wo rounds; Dan Ris- | ko, 217, one round; sid Taylor, 206, |one round; Charlic Anderson, 208, {two rounds.

Golf association not continue to manufacture the pres- ent ball after the new year arrives. There is no great criticism of the new ball by the mass of golfers. They simply ignore it and continu to use the regular ball. There is no of mutiny against the chang ze and weight of the golf over by the ruling golf But there is a natlon-wid inclination to put off the evil day making a chanzo from the old o the new ball that has the manufac- turers worried. A few weeks back. one of tha leading makers of high priced balls discontinued the manufacture of th: present ball. It was not long be- fore he was: writing frantic letters to the pros in an endeavor to buy up the old balls so he could fill his orders for it.

And | the new ball cuts down the distance | of the drive of the average pl especially if there 15 a head or cross wind.” On the other hand, Bob Pryde. daddy of Connecticut golf, is quite | reconciled to the bigger sphere.

Tha | Tigers experienced one of the mo. | disastrous seasons in the Tigers' foot- { ball history last year and right now the outlook is anything but prom- ising for the campaign that lies ju: ahead. Princeton played seven games last vear, lost four, tied one and won two. After beating Amherst 7-0, the Tigers were bowled over by Brown, 13-12 and Cornell 13-7 and then tied Navy, 13-13. A 15-7 de- | feat by Chicago and a 20-0 victory lover Lehigh were followed by the | final game of the season when Yale | battered its way to a 13-0 triumph. | Ixactly the same set of opvonen: | will be faced this vear and the Ti- gers look ahead with some trepidi- tion.

The really epic struggle of the day, however, probably will occur at Morgantown, W. Va., where those | bitter rivals of old, Pitt and West Virginia, clash in their annual game. Despite the loss of five mem- bers of last year's powerful varsity, Pitt seems to have another strong team but Ira Rodgers' Mountainecrs are no foe to be taken lightly at any time. Outside of these scattered frays, Saturday’s schedule ‘again will pro- vide the big teams with a chance to score touchdowns with little or no opposition. New than mo- T HAMPER TEAM Princoton, N. J..
