The wforwicn assoclation rootvall team closed its season Saturday with a game at Sachem park in the after- noon, when it defeated the Jewett City soccer eleven, 4 to 1, ir a one-sided contest. The uperiority of the home team was evident in the first half, when Jewett City was completely out- classed_and could not once find th Norwich net, while Captain Hilton' men were driving in four. In the second half, when the teams were faced around, the visitors made some desperate attempts to score. Nor- wich had an easy lead and played merely to hold it, making the game slow in the last half. Brennan suc- ceeded in beating the Norwich goal- keeper at close quarters, but the point was more in the nature of a gift than anything else. The close of the two 35-minute halves left the score Nor- wich 4, Jewett City 1 Mr r was referee and F. Pierson the Nor- wich linesman. The following was the Norwich line- n- ; forwards, Hiiton, A.

They have made a successful record, winning four games, tieing one and losing one; also finish ing as champions of the Eastern Con- necticut Association Football league, HILL AND MURPHY THE HIGH TEAM. First Prize Winners in Duckpin Tour- ney—Westerly Team Coming Tues- day. The rolling Saturday night at the Rose alleys decided the prize winners in the rolloft of the six team duckpin tourney.

The Westerly team, Packard and Casey, will be hers on Tuesday evening for’ their return match with Allle Murphy and Julian Harris. M’GRATH ANSWERS BARNES. Will Wrestle for Side Bet or Back His Training Partner. Jfm Barnes, the Spri Springfiela wrestler, recently stated through The Bulletin that he was waiting to hear from Jack McGrath regarding an unanswered challenge issued by Barnes for & straight match to a finish. Upon Mec- Grath’s return from a trip to New York he was informed of Barnes' defl, which he now answers by saying that he will meet, the Springfleld man and wrestle him in private for any sfde bet that Barnes wants to name. Or he will wrestle him in public for a suitable side bet and give the entire gate receipts to any charitable institu- tion in Norwich Xhl( the Sporting Bd- itor of The Bulletin will name., And McGrath also has another proposition for Barnes. McGrath now has a wrestling partner, Dan Murphy, and he will back him for $100 on the sition that Barnes can't throw Murphy twice in an hour. If Barnes thinks he can beat me, says xcGntb here’s his chanoe. TOpO- Jack Johnson is afraid of Jim Jef- fries, according to Charles Kid Cut. ler. pays the Toledo Blade.

They all reported he was in good shape, but Johnson wouldn't be- lieve it, so he went himself. Then he gu more frightened than ever, utler. said testants.

Jeffries shows signs of being wind- broken after two or three one-minute Tounds of light sparring with Berger, says teh New York Sun. This work is far different from rounds of three min- utes each at top speed, at the same t!ne svm‘ and taking heavy blows. Johnson are matched to go “forty-five rounds or more.” If the bout should end with the forty-fifth round the men would be in the HA; ex- actly three hours, of which two hours and fifteen minutes would be consumed by actual fighting, Jeffries, never an aggressive pugilist, must contend with the greatest defense boxer in the world, which is taken to mean that'the mill may be a long drawn out test of e durance. For season Jeffries, it ll believed will have to be absolutel as to stamina, which involves un‘ power, if he expects to beat this for- midable colored man. Opposed to the foregoing is the fol- lowing from the Boston Globe: One of the best known physicians in Boston, who was-at the show, said aft- er seeing Jeffries do his abdominal ex- ercise, that anyone who could go through that exercise and show no ef- fects from it was fihle to box for a kingdom. Another physiclan ptl.tefl that Jef- fries is now just right to go through a hard siege of training. Some of the old time sports, however, could see nothing but defeat for Jeffries when he. meets Johnson. NO BRILLIANT THIRD SACKERS. Off Year in the Majors—Devlin About the Best, but Not What He Was Once. While the general plaint of the fans t the al' round play of 1909 was not up l.u that ef previous seasons— may not be really justified, there seems little doubt tht at ome nt of the dlamond the shown in 1909 fell away S frara that o faw o three years in fact, retrograded quite noticeab) 8o far as tlg figures are concerned, no change is apparent—the averages But the dash, daszzling brilllancy, seintillating beauty of third base play, the class shown when Collins and Bradley were at the height of their careers, was lacking. It cropped out now and then, and there were some splendid displays round third base in both leagues, but taking the season as a whole the work at the far cormer was disappointing. Few new stars came out, and the old- ec_men retrograding. Pittsburg’s third corner was guard- ed by Barbeau through most of the campaign—a hard working little fel- low, but very much under the class to ‘which nll third sackers must be com- pared—that of Bradley and Collins. Byrne flnllhed the season—a hustler, but for all round 1l and execution far below iie highest grade. Stein- feldt, one of the oldest third basemen now in service, had a good year for the Cubs, worked hard, covered more ground t in 1908, and looked more than good, but at his best was never the polished beauty that Bill Bradley used to be. Arthur-DevHn of New York sized up as just about the top class for 1909. He “was as good as any third base- man in either league. He was as neat on the pickup, as strong on the throw, as reliable afier the fly and in taking the catcher’s hurl as any man who could be named, and yet Arthur is not quite as good as he used to be. The class, in other words, has gone back faster than Devlin, and he now looms up in prominence because his rivals have not lasted as well. Lobert, for the Reds, had a bad year and does not seem mearly as good as in the past. Grant, for the Quakers, really improved. He was almost up to Devlin in all round value, and was one of the few third basemen to show a perceptible gain in his quality. Brooklyn's third baseman, Lennox, formerly of this city, is hardly devel- oped. He showed flashes of sturdy quality, and is especially good in blocking grounders, and in _another season may be at the top. Just now he cannot be rated as the best, or within three or four notches of it. Bresnahan had the same men used by Pittsburg—Byrne and Barbeau—and also acquired, but seldom used, Mike Mowrey. This man, in health, can play a more finished, workmanlike third than either Barbeau or Byrne, and has a lot of ability about him. Sweeney of Boston 1s somewhat er- ratic, tries hard, makes many neat plays, but does not class - with the great men who played the bag before at Boston—Sutton, Nash, McGarr and Collins. Boston was the one place where third base was grandly played for thirty years, and the Hub fans ex- p::t too high a standard from their stars. CORNELL CREWS. Ithacan Collegians Have Been Far Superior on the Hudson. A survey of the records of the four- teen regattas that have been held at Poughkeepsie by the minor college rowing association since its inception in 1895 and the single regatta at Sar- atoga in 1898, shows that Cornell's varsity eights have been far superior to the crews of her competitors. Cor- nell also leads in freshmen eights, but in the vareity fours the decision must be awarded to Syracuse; but only be- cause Cornell's four was compelied to abandon the race in 1908 after it had been won to all Intents and purposes. Tais mishap loses for Cornell the un- blemished title of queen of the river, ore which the Ithacans undoubtedly deserve in view of their remarkaole performances. Fifteen times Cornell varsity sight- cared crews have started in contests for_supremacy, and nina times the red and white has been victorious st Lhe finish. Thrice Cornell has been second and thrice third. This record is one that Cornell may well boast of. The average position of Cornell's crews in these 15 races hus been 160, only a fraction worse than first. Pennsylva- nia has three victories to her credit, but for all that the percentage is ex- actly the same as Columbia’s first one. While Syracuse, with two Arst places, is further down the list. The positions that the various col- d in the 15 regattas wero as First—Cornell 9, Pennsylvania 3, Syracuse 2, Columbia 1. Second—Columbia 5, Cornell 3, Wis- consin 3, Pennsylvania 2, Syracuse 1, Harvard 1. Third—Cornell 2, Pennsylvania ' 3, Wisconsin 3, Columbia 2, Syracuse 2, Georgetown 1, Annapolis 1.

BREAK IN BOILER' AT SPIRITUAL ACADEMY. Tube Blew Out Early Sunday Morning —Evening Service Postponed. A tube in the boiler at the Spiritual academy burst Sunday morning about 845 o'clock, with three pounds of steam on, and in consequence there was no evening service, and the con- cert which was to have been given was postponed until next Sunday. The morning service at 11 o'clock was held informally in the vestry. Rev. A. P. Blinn was in the building when the tube burst and on reaching the boiler he found the water pouring out and covering the floor. The boiler is of an old type, being in sections, and it is hoped that the section where the ‘break occurred can be repaired without necessitating a new boller. FIRE IN VERSAILLES. Occum Company Called Out but Not Needed—Blaze Was in Joseph Al- lard’s Chimn About nine o'clock Sunday evening the blowing of the whistle at the mill in Versallles and the later ringing of the Occum mill bell called out a large crowd for a chimney fire at the home of Joseph Allard in Versailles. The 'um hose company was soon on the way, but after crossing the bridge was informed that the fire was out and their services mot needed. The blaze didn’t amount to much and was quick- Iy put out. The alarm was plainly heard for miles around and in Taft- ville there was anxiety as to where it was.
