JONES, Insurance Agt. |at the closing of | Norwich-Taftville opens (Special to The Bulletin.) Not the least Bit of a Kick was com- ing after the manageps of the Eastern Connecticut league teams came out of their meeting in the Central house, Danielson, Sunday afternoon; that is, not any worth mentioning. They had tatked over the schedule which was the main bone of contention, and they fi- nally decided it would be a wise plan not to make any more changes, . The schedule arranged is satisfactory to the three teams north of Danielson, but the three teams south of there feel that they have been handed a little the ghort end of the deal. Be that as it may, the directors from the southern end ‘of the circuit decided to abide by the playing plan adopted at the last meeting and next Saturday tiey will pull their ball tossers out of winter quarters to start the race for_the flag. Manager Benoit of the Norwlich- Taftville team was anxious that the schedule be revised as were also Far- rell of Wauregan and McBroome of Jewett Cigy, but was very consider- ate of the¥best interests of the league, posted his forfeit money and agreed to try to go out and win another pen- nant, umder conditions that are not just ‘as he would like tp have them. That the different managers are really interested in each other's wel- fare gnd want to see the league pros per &as again demonstrated, though some of them were obliged to give a little ground for the sake of harmony. There was not & single instance of wrangling over players erved by any of the teams, a far different state of affairs than preceded the opening of the league last season. This wWas rath- er surprising in view of the fact that all of the teams have new men. President Reeves announced that his *staff of umpires would be the same as t season. Henry Calsse of Putnam, Jos White of Web- ster and Arthur Roy of Jewett City will try and keep the teams playing according to the rules, and they have all demonstrated that they can deliver the goods. So watch for some good games at the opening next Saturday. at Wauregan, Dayville at North Grosvenordale and Putnam at Jewett City. Long practice hours will be the rule for this week, and when Saturday rolls around the fans will hear the old fa- millar Play Ball, ACADEMY WINS. Game, 11 to 6. The Academy baseball team under Captain Noyes won its first game of the season Saturday afternoon on the Academy campus, defeating the Open House team under Capt. Floyd Christ. man, 11 to 6, Until two awful heaves from third by Sullivan in the same inning, clearing the bases on the first one and letting in two_more runners on the becond, the gamie stood some chance of belng a ciose contest, but the Academy cinched the game by scoring seven runs in this unlucky in- ning for Open House. A side issue that added to the ex- citement was a beautifu] dog fight that Steve Ricketts broke up with a Ricketts was also strong with the stick in the game, leading the hitters with a brace of two baggers. Coach Tirrell made 1t largely a tryout game for his most promising recrul ting in & new bunch in a number of | positions after the fifth inning. Jack Gallivan twirled the first three 4nnings for the Academy, and _there was nothing doing for the Open House | Ted Lawler then went out on | the firing line and performed with | g batters. credit, and Captain Noyes finished up the last three innings, showing his old effectiveness against the opposing bdat- ters. The game gave a line on the abilities of ti different men and will assist in picking out a team this week in time for Saturday, when the Acad- emy has its first Jeague game with ‘Windham high at Willimantic, On the losers’ side Christman In the box and Drake behind the bat were a strong combination, but their support was responsible for losing the game.

Manager Bill Leavenworth of the Academy team is hustling_around at the present time on the job of get- ting up a score card for the games which will be an attractive ‘and ap- preciated feature for the games and is also expected to turn some money into the treasury. New suits for the team have been ordered, all in the laf- est sartorial basebal] style, blue gray in color, with monogram on the arm, inlaid collars, a red stripe on the trou- sers, and altogether a very swell ap- pearance. A game with the Norwich-Taftville team will probably be arranged for Wednesday this weck, as Manager Benoit is anxious to have his league team practice against the Academy. NOR-TAFT LOSES TO WESTERLY, 15 TO 6. T e ). Best Men Not in the Game, But Will Come Later. The Norwich-Taftville team of the stern Connecticut league Iqst a prac- tice game at Sachem park ' Satefday afternoon, 15 to 6, to the Westerly team of the R. L-Conn. league. The home team looked little like the cham- pions of a vear ago, and_showed that Manager Benoit will need a strength- ened dineup if he is to preserit a for- midable front next Saturday at Wau- regan, when his team opens the season there. Manager Benoit was without a catch- er to start with, as “Backer” Larowe had a sore back and was holding a place in the outfield. In his place be- hind the bat was a Preston City can- didate by the name of Miller, who sign- ed his own death warrant in the first inning by showing his utter inability to catch Bill Boucher, and he was der- ricked to cexfer ficld, “Backer” going behing, the bat. Miller tried it again in the fourth _with Jim McClafferty pitching, but Jim was forced to lob them over for the catcher, and after two innings, in which Westerly scored 11 runs, Captain Jack Casey went be- hind the bat and.showed how the job should be done for the rest of the game. The one bright feature of the after- noon was a running catch by Bryer ot Westerly in center field, when he grab- bed the ball at his shoe tops, fell and rolled over, but came up with the ball held fast. Manager Benolt had two other new recruits on the team, McSheffrey of Taftville at third and Burdick from Preston in left field. Captain Jack Casey and the old_guard from last year, including Bill Boucher, the twirl- er, worked in good form, and the two new men also showed ' ability. Me- Sheffrey was a little unsteady at third, but Burdick handled in good shope one fly that came to him and also poled out two safe hits. He was told to report a n by the manager. The Westerly men were live Colts, and both plechers they trie: J. Paine d for the first five innings, and Sawyer finished the game. Fred L'Heureux of Jewett City caught for Westerly.

The Norwich Association football team played Sterling a tie game, 2 to 2 at Sterling on Saturday, which was doing well for the locals, as they were weakened by the absence of several of their regular n, while Sterling had strengthened up with players from Centerville and Crompton. At 3 o'clock Mr. French, the ref- eree, line up the following teams: Norwich—Goal, H. Finlaysonffi backs. Andrews, Ferguson; halves, C. White, Critchley, Musgrave; forwardds, Hil- ton, W. White, A. Finlayson, McComb, Parsons. Sterling—Goal, Kennedy ;halves, Cardinal, Clayton, Osteerlund, Cham- berlain, A. Shorrock; forwards, Lar- row, McGovern, Brown, T, Shorrock, ‘Willlamson. In the first period Sterling started off at a sharp pace, but Norwich de- fended well, and Critchley, Finlayson and Hilton ‘showed some pretty team work on the attack. Sterling scored both its goals in this half, Shorrock being responsible for the first after ten minutes of play, and Larrow scored with a fast cross shot. The score at half time stood: Sterling 2, Norwich 0. After a short breather the teama faced round. Sterling attacked wih vigor, and Finlayson handled two or three raspers in rapid succession. Fer- guson, aveated a disaster by knocking McGovern flving just as he was steadying himself to schoot. Critch- Who was playing a stor game at half, let Parsons and McComb away, the former slipping the ball across to Finlayson. The latter beat Chamber- lain and sent in & low grounder which passed between = Kennedy's legs and opened the Whites' account. This re- verse seemed to sting the dark blues, and they set a terrific pace, but the whites' defense was too solid. Critch- ley's blocking was e sight for the gods, he on one occasion blocking four men in succession and then transferring the ball to Parsons. A neat bit of play brought the ball within range of Ken- nedy and McComb sending across.

HcVey Practically Out When Seconds Threw Up the Sponge. In the greatest fight witmessed in France since John L. Sullivan and Charley Mitchell drew at Chantilly in 1888, Joe Jeannette of New York Sat- urday night defeated Sam McVey of @olifornia in the fiftieth round of a finish fight at Paris. The contest last- ed for three hours and a half. : Jeannette was mnearly in the 224 round, but he bore the punishment bravely and recuperated in_a wonder- ful manner. McVey had almost worn himself out ofter 40 rounds, and by this time the New York fighter was coming back. By effective infighting he gradually beat the Californian and practically had him knocked out when the fight ended, McVey's second§ throwing up the sponge. Jeannette was the favorite in the betting, and the purse was $6,000. McGrath’s Pupil to Box.
