He won 34 games and lost five, but in 1913 he discovered that his arm had lost its strength. Yet when his comtract ex- pired he refused a cut and turned down an offer of $5000 for 1916.

The club owners, Mr. Johnson There are several cases of chicken-pox and some varieloid in Westerly, sbut it is still an unsolved question whether there are any cases of real dangerous small-pox. Lyman Edwards of Old Lyme who is sick with small-pox states that he contracted the disease in Westerly and not in Ston- ington, as was at first stated. He had been visiting in Westerly and not in Stonington. ~ From the same source ‘where Mr. Edwards contracted the dis. ease, whatever it is, at least one other man, a resident of Pawcatuck, who has been in contact with the same per- sons as had Mr. Edwards has som= eruptive disease, that one physician believes to be chicken-pox: another is of opinion that it is small-pox. This later case was reported to Dr. Cong- don, health officer of the town of tSon- ington, and after investization he made report to Dr. John T. Black, sec- retary of the Connecticut state board of health, and its executive officer. asking him to come to Pawcatuck and investigate the case. Just as soon as Dr. Congdon learned of the case he placed the suspect un- der guarant'nue, and he is satisfied that this man’s disease and that of Mr. Edwards, of Old Lyme, are identical. The Pawcatuck man is employed at the Cottrell plant and was at his work all iast week, and just as soon as he noted the eruption he reported the condition to a Westerly physician. He was not sick, but wds anxious to know just what the eruption indicated, for made the condition of Georges Carpen- ter such that he would have trouble getting into condition for a real bout inside of six months.

By Peter P. Carney Editor National Sports Syndicate Probably the greatest revision in the rules of the Interstate Association for the Encouragement of Trapshooting made at the recent annual meeting was the one to permit the sanctioning of trapshooting tournaments on Sun- day. This change was made at the urgent solicitation of the trapshooters of those sections where the “blue laws” do not exist. In many of the states west of the Ohio river, Sunday is the big day for sporting events—and with the In- terstate Association for many vears refusing to register a tournament on the Sabbath hundreds of the western trapshooters failed to appear in the official averages of the Interstate A sociation—said averages only carrying the names of the shooters who shoot at 2000 or more registered targets dur- ing_the season. Now this is all changed. The trap- from 1 to 2 1-2 points in oils and other industrials _which may be affected ‘was some activity at the open- ing, altogether at the expense of quot- ed values, but dealings dwindled stead- thereafter. U. S. Steel, which yield- a point at its worst, and the metals furnished their usual large quota to the meagre turnover of 154,000 shares.
