In Benjamin’s two innings on the mound Killingly secured eight hits and seven runs and he was replaced by Brickley, who held the sluggers to four hits for the rest of the game.

YANTIC WILLINGLY ACCEPTS SPORTING NOTES I NATIONALS’ CHALLENGE Play for Any Amount—First Game the 22nd. will Manager Bill Wicks will have to soar around to dig up a pitcher now as Harrigan has left. The following letter was received from the Yantic baseball manager con- cerniing the challenge flung at them by Manager Hughes of the Nationals: Sporting Editor: In reply to the challenge issued to us in Tuesday’s paper, will say that we gladly accept it. The understanding that two games be played, one at Yantic, May 22nd and one at the Cranberry, May 23rd. We also_accept Manager Hughes’ side bed of $25 or also would be willing to make it $50. We heartily agree with Manager Hughes that the series will g0 only two games, but that Yan- tic will bring home the bacon in both games. Fun, money or marbles is our motto and it is aimed not only at Hughes, but Taftville, Baltic, Plain- field and the Sachems, (Signed) FRANK W. STRITCH, Manager. The Feds seem to have nailed New- ark. They are easily outgrowing the International league there. The brace of the White Sox have given Chicago fandom glimpses of an- other championship club for Comis- key. The Red Sox have been so overesti- mnated that they are thrown off their stride trying to fulfill expectations, says a Boston writer. Harry Kingman of Springfield col- lege played right field for the team the Yankees sent to Perth Amboy, N, J., Sunday. He got three hits. “Birdie® Cree, whose nose was TO KILLINGLY Killingly Won Out in Ninth Inning—Benjamin Knocked Out of-the- Box—Score 8 to 7—Reddy’s Two Bagger Drove BIG THREE HAVE BASEBALL LEAGUE NOW Collegiate Diamond Furnishes Excel- lent Material for Majors. Baseball in the college ranks, like that in professional, has become closer in the nature of competition each year since its adoption. In recent years the major collegiate nines, as well as those of the smaller colleges, have served as hotbeds from which mater- ial is gathered for professional leagues. Each spring the major league officials send their scouts to college diamonds, hoping to glean young blood for fu- ture development. There scarcely has been a world’s series in which some college product did not take an active part—Jack Barry, Jack Coombs, Ed- die Collins and Christy Mathewson are excellent examples. Back in 1868, when Princeton, Har- vard and Yale first began their im- portant series, the national pastime surely was in its infancy. In that spring Yale defeated Princeton by the score of 30 to 23, Harvard downed Yale by the margin of 25 to 17, and the Crimson conquered the Tigers by 17 to 6. It required eight years of | play before all of the “Big Three"” teams could get their scores down to single figures. Harvard and Yale in thelr series of the first eight years recorded enough runs to set scoring records which never have been brok- en. The scores between the Crimson and the Bulldog from 1868 up until 1873 were as follows: Harvard 25 Yale 17; Harvard 41, Yale 24; Harvard 24, Yale 22; Harvard 22, Yale 19; Harvard 32, Yale 13; Harvard 19, Yale 17; Harvard 16, Yale 15; Harvard 29, Yale 5. The opening of the series of 1874 between the rivals marked the recording of Yale's first victory over the Cambridge team. In that season Yale won both sames of the series, and now Harvard is behind in total triumphs. Out of the 125 contests staged be- tween this pair, Yale has romped away with 623 while Harvard has chalked up 61, one of the games played since 1868 being a tie. Records show that Yale is leading the “Big Three” in point of victories. Her majority over the Tigers is far greater than that over the Crimson. The records stand: Yale 69, Princeton 49, with 3 ties. Harvard has also taken the majority of the contests from Princeton by the margin of 46 to 42 and one tie. To date, the New Haven representatives have recorded 132 victories, Harvard 107 and Prince- ton 91 in the big games. The batters of college teams are known to break up more games by their hitting than the fielders lose by weak defense. In observing the out- come of a majority of college baseball games one will find that, as a rule, it's broken recently, will be able to play Wwith the Yanks in about a week. Cree will make the western trip. Though “Eddie” Collins is not bat- ting as hard or as often as usual, ha FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL is getting to first just as frequently, being forwarded on bases on balls, MARKET MODERATELY ACTIVE Early Gains Melted Away on Renewal of Bearish Operations One expert says the reason Walter Johnson is not winning games is be- cause he has'acquired a curve, and lost & lot of his speed in the operation. — New York, May 12.—Securities of all classes displayed marked stability during the greater part of today's moderately active session, but fell Kansas may be Jess Willard’s home, but the state’s moving picture censors have declded to bar pictures showing the champion at his home and away in the final hour to the ac- training. In | Companiment of unconfirmed rumors ——en. of a disquieting character. Early Maranville's hitting is showing great improvement. In last week’'s games he hit at a .352 clip and so his general mark rose. Boston writers also say he is even bettering his fielding. A Chicago critic thinks the reason he Cubs are making a fight for first place is the Chicago club is not quite S0 poor as those representing Cincin- nati, St. Louis and Pittsburgh. Clark Griffith prefers Tris Speaker to any man who ever played the out- field. = That includes Bill Lange, Jim- my McAleer, Curt Welch and all the other great men of forgotton days. The New Haven soccer team scored 2 2 to 0 victory over the New Britain team Sunday at New Britain. Cave and Stevens scored the goals that sent the visltors into the final ground for c<hamplon honors. Jake Fournier says he Is getting hits because he follows Eddle Collins in the batting order. Eddie gets the pitclier worried when he gets on base, so Fournisr confesses it is eagy for him to produce under the circumstances. There will be no swim off of the triple tie for the intercollegiate cham- plonship between Columbia, Pennsyl- vania and Yale this veah, according to a decision reached by the Intercollegi- ate Swimming assoclation at a ‘meet- in gheld Sunday in New York. Pilly Hanna of the New York Sum, without a doubt one of the ablest fel- lows who ever wrote baseball, thinks the greatest infield the game ever knew was made up of Tenney, Lowe, Long and Jimmie Collins. The old Bostons were great in every depart- mient, Baker has told Connie Mack he will reiurn to the Athletics if his present contract is torn up. Of course, Mr. Mack is too wise to fall into such a trap as that. Baker should either play with the Athletics or “retire” to that farm in Maryland that was promised his services. The Sachems in their opening game against Taftville put up poor exhi- bitions and must improve somewhat it thev want to rule the city as Man- azer John Hughes of the Nationals has already predicted great achievements for his team, already John is talking of touring Main by auto. gains of one to two points in standard shares and as much as 3 to 6 in the specialties, melted away, the decline being accelerated by a renewal of bearish_operations. The international situation was the one governing factor throughout, the list giving its first manifestation of strength on announcement that Wash- ington had formulated a definite policy respecting the sinking of the Lusi tania. The trading element evident- ly chose to interpret this favorably and proceeded to buy, concentrating its efforts mainly about United States Steel. The movement in this stock de- rived additional impetus from reports that the steel corporation had received large orders for unfininshed material from companies now filling war con- tracts. ‘War specialties were prominent at the intermittent periods, Bethlehem Steel, Westinghouse Electric and al- lied shares being freely absorbed at more or less steady advances. Rail- road issues of the investment class were bought, the rise in grangers and Pacifics being based upon excellent crop prospects. Coppers also were conspicuous, the entire group moving upward on a revival of domestic de- mand for the refined metal. Routine news embraced the receipt of $5,000,000 gold from France, en- gaged a week ago by an internation- al banking house having close rela- tinos with the Bank of France. Trade authorities issued conflicting reports as to the state of the steel and iron in- dustry and exchange on London was more steady, while francs and lires were lower. Investment conditions abroad as reported by the London market de- noted hesitation by British investors, That part of the new Argentine loan offered by London bankers was closed with evident success, while an Hast Indian loan for a moderate amount seemed to find little inquiry. Many “future sales” indicating recurrence of foreign selling were recovered in the local bond market, which was firm in the main. A feature was the weak- ness of Argentine’s 5's, which declin- ed 13 points. Total sales, par value, aggregated $3,190,000. United States bonds were unchang- ed on call.

In accord- ance with this argument only two no. hit games can be found in the records of the contests played by Yale, Har- vard and Princeton since 1868. mentioned marks a new epoch in col- taken upon itself to confine the Amer- ican collegiate baseball title to these three institutions. Yale, Harvard and Princeton will play each other three games, regard- less of the outcome of the first two. This makes a triangular series of nine games. Hitherto, Harvard and Prince- ton have played each other only one game, while Yale has had to play two and sometimes three games with each. As the case proved last year, in the event that each of the three teams de- feats one of its opponents and loses to the other, the championship can not be definitely determined under the old system.

YORK STREET, - NEW HAVEN TELEPHONE 3350 DOINGS IN THE AUTO WORLD Larger jitney 'busses on motortruck chassis are rapidly replacing the small touring cars and second-hand automo- biles which pioneered in that field. The present impetus to 'bus transportation has Lrought about the use of quanti- ties of these greater capacitp ’buses for work in congested districts, cross- town service in residence and factory sections and in extension lines where the street railways do not go. The overloading and overworking of small touring cars in order to make them pay In passenger transportation, will stop as 8oon as ’bus owners and cperators come to realize the great de- teriorgtion of these cars, and the e rense of keeping them continuously in work for which they were not de- signed. The difficulty herétofore has been that few motor trucks were adaptable for possenger work. They had neither the cquipment nor ease of operation whicl are almost imperative for work of this nature. One of the first features which will appeal to both 'bus operators and their patrons is the silent, smooth running worm-drive. While the jitney was an inncvation, the public was willing to ride in vehicles of almost any sort, but as the business grows older the pa- trons are gradually becoming more particular as to the service rendered. If the jitney operators cannot give the public genuine service the rapid spread of the enterprise will be checked. For successful 'bus operation the owner must secure a vehicle which is heavy enough to be sturdy and power- ful without being cumbersome or un- wieldy, At the same time it must be light enough to be speedy and econom- ical. For remunerative service the last is an absolute essential. We believe that the one and a haif ton vehicle meets these requirements in every re- spect. While a touring car can go slightly further on a gallon of gasoline than a one and a half ton truck, the truck can carry from three to five times as many passengers in a single load. Moreover, the truck is built for the heavier work, while the touring car is not. No matter what kind of a body a2y be placed on a touring car chassfs whether it will seat five, ten or even twenty, the heavier the load the great- er and more rapid the deteroration of the car will be. The designing of a new motor car includes every branch of manufac- turing endeavor. The engineer must know motor cars and have previous practice in the mechanical end.

He must know buying, sa that the parts which he buys for tha car may be economically purchased as is possible, and he must continually work in conjunction with the purchas- ing department. He must know mer- chandising, and be able to outline the sales method by which the car may be sold to best advantage. While highway commissioners are deliberating upon where to begin upon | the tasks assigned it recently by the: legislature, of recommending a rem- edy for the glaring automobile head- light nuisance, the problem is in a fair way to solve itself, And the sclution is coming through the spread of road courtesy among drivers. It may be that by the time the commis- sion is requested to make its recom- mendaticn. that it, to the legislature | of 1917, the nusiance of the blinding lisht will have been so far removed that no law will be necessary. The location of the spark plug in : the cylinder has a great deal to do with the amount of power to be re- ceived frgm an engine, For instance, in the “T" head type of motor, if the spark plug is placedl over the intake valve, the spark oc- curs _at one side of the combustion | chamber and the gas can burn in ons direction only. Tn order to ignite the cylinder. with greater rapidity, tha : many users of the “T” type of motor many users of the “T” head tvpe of motor have placed two spark plugs which fire simultaneously and ignite from the two extreme ends of the combustion chamber. The designer of a certain six evl- inder engine have diverted from the usual method of placing the spark plugs over the valve and have placed it in the center of the combustion chamber. ° This allows the flame to spread to all parts of the gasses equal- 1y and consequently complete the ign gases in the tion of the charge quicker and give more pov-e: The placing of the spark plug in the center of the combustion chamber also tends to keep the spark plug more free from oil. Between February 1 and April 1 there were 2,000 motorcycles registered in Canada. At that rate it is con- servatively estimated that there will he at least 10,000 riders of the two waeel- er. Cobb look like a bush leaguer, and that the Wards and Hempstead are useless in the game. Tommy Leach is putting up a great game for Cincinnati. His fielding is always true and his batting good. For an old boy he certainly is delivering the goods. Dick Carroll, business manager of the Brooklyn Feds, says Benny Kauff does too much talking. Kauff's sus- pension will be measured by the length of his talk. Ban Johnson sees no snap for the Red Sox in winning the pennant, but he does consider them “a grand ball club.” Detroit is impressing Ban very seriously as a pennant contender. New London has a pipe dream that in the reorganization of the New Eng- land league and Eastern association next season only three New England league cities are to be included, and that New London is to be one of five from the Eastern associatin. No won- der dope at that end of the circuit isn't taken seriously.—Exchange. What is probably the final cut of the season in the Brown university first squad has been made by Coach Harry Potter. Outfielders Hail and Jemail and Catcher Cleveland were sent back to the second team. But two outfielders remain, and it is more than likely Crowel and Cram will be alternated in the outer gar- den and on the mound. John McGraw certainly got the short end of the bargain when he traded Groh, Ames and Devore to Cincinnati for Fromme. Groh has proved the best of the bunch and, according to Presi- dent Tener, is the best third baseman in the National league. His brother was with Springfield last year. The next big athletic event for Har- vard's track team is the dual meet with Cornell in the stadium on Satur- day next, May 8. As yet Harvard has not been up against a regular team in the regular events of a full meet. Already the relay teams have had a chance to show what they can do in the Penn relay games. The wcrld’s champion woman swim- mer, Fanny Durack, of Australia, is expected to tour the United States during the coming summer.
