Hoar, who twirled for Mid- dletown, had great control and was master of the situation at all stages. He received good support from his team mates. Quinn for the visitors put up a star game at first and land- ed for two singles at the plate. Chase's arm was having an off day and Middletown runners had little dif- ficulty in stealing the second bag, &s the hospital backstop’s throws were all wide of the sack. TUntil the seventh inning the local team plaved good ball and gave every indication of redeeming itself from some of the recent bad defeats. In the seventh inning, with men on sec- ond and third, Moore dodged a ball hit straight to his glove and allowed the two to score.

Rezarding the Montvilla-Alrile strifs Manager Flaherty of Montville writes the sporting editor of The Bulletin as follows: troversy, such as the present Airlie and Montville affair is out of the question in the columns of your paper. Inas- much as Hanover has stated their case, I ask to have a reply printed. Mr. Har- rison should be the last one to deal in only man available for umpire, and he was not instructed to play favorites, which won be fallacy for him, as no man appreciates being “canned.” N aaheless when Hanover objectd to him the fact remains that 1 let them put their oyn umpire in, and he was as bad if not worse for calling the deciding hit of the game foul, 8o as the visitors réfused to continue with our umpire, we would not go further with” thelrs. Several of the Hanover players know hat each and every Montville player stayed on the fleld ready to continue, and 1 personally asked one or two of the Alrlie players that remained on the fisld, among them was Norman Stand- ish, to go after the others under penal- ty of not getting expenses if the game i for reasons finnumera- ) Play some team on August 4, 1912.

Hanover was in the field at time of mixup and Montvllle at ib&(, so it didn't appear ta me that we were the ones to leave the fleld first, club club house with my players I found a sweater on the fleld, and upon asking whose it was, found it to belong to Page, the visiting pitcher, who was partly dressed upon my urrival at’ the clug house. ‘We know games are not well support- ed here, but a sinking tund is in evi- dence to cover deficits from each game, and Mr. Harrison wowld have received | {his money as agreed had he allowed his team ta finish, and fair warning was give nthem to resume play, if they wera to get expenses. Mr. Harrison knows he handles the truth very light- ly in several of his statements, partic- uarly about who left the fleld first. He has only to get this verified from his own players. In conclusion, I regret to have to take up The Bulletin's valuable space in such a small affair, but assure Har- rison et al. we can always pay and have the wherewithal to do it when agreements are carried out. pick up an Elk team just to accom- modate Manager Harvey, but Man- eger Harvey says this {s not so, he states that Wilson came to him and said he could pick up a team from the Norwich Flks that could trim the team from the Norwich Nest of Owls. Also Jack Wilson says that he will play the Owls for a marbla or a man- sion. But lets get back to common sense and talk sanely, money, Man- ager Harvey says he will take that challenge and If Manager Wilson means what he says, he will find 26 cold bucks to be covered at the Bul- letin office. Manager Harv also wishes state that he has $25 more to bet that his team can beat any other fraternal order baseball team in Nor- wich. Manager Harvey wishes to state one more thing and that js that the Driscoll's All-Stars would like to to Sachems to Play Jewett City. For their next game the Sachems will go to Jewett City diamond, where they will cross bats with the Jewett City team, postponed from the 21st, because of the raln. As before stated the Sachems have met defeat only once this year. The team is in fine shape and 1s confident that it will be victorious. The Jewett City team has been beaten only once this season, and that once by the Sachems, so that a fast and close game may be counted on. The fron hand of Frank McIntyre will be there good and strong to hold Jewett City boys down, and Charles Mclntyre will be there to support his brother.
