Tost. New Haven Tawrence Now London Bridgeport Worceter Porizna Springteia Harttord Saturday saw the close of the East- ern League season with the pennant in New Haven. The New Haven club has maintained a good lead for the last two months. Lawrencs, the run- ner-up, has playéd good bail the last part of the season but New Haven had piled up toa great a lead early in the season. Local fans have watched the performance of the New Haven bovs with interest as they were under the management of Danny Murphy, a local boy, who Lkas played in the big leagues as a member of the pen- nant winaing A.thletics. { throughout the season. In speaking of the championy the New Haven Register, said: Although there has been no_doubt as to the issue of the Eastern League race for two or three weeks back and the games of Labor Day settled the pennant winner it asn't until Sat- urday afternoon’s games had been reeled off on Dan O’'Neil's wheel that New Haven could officially lay claim to the championship of the organiza- tion and Elm_ Tity fans confidently point with pride to a club that upset quite a lot of pre-season dope, and incidentally established a number of rather wmique records in the steady battle for the flas. It is five years since an honest-to- goodness pennant was won by a New Haven nine and that flag was won by George Cameron's Eastern assocla- tion outfit after only a_fair battle With the in- vasion of the Federais in orzamized baseball territory came Bert Maxwell and his ridiculous assortment of mis- fits who held sway at the Savin Roek grounds for a couple of seasons and then last summers Eastern league club that had hard work strusgling along in seventh place in the 10-club circuit. This season with a later start than usual and consequently a bit better opportunity to select players and per- fect balance in' the club New Haven salled away on Mav 10 in fair shape, soon drew the attention of the entire circuit to jts class and evedtually proved to be the best nine the city has had in many a year. g Peculiarly enough and although the club has bheen out In front for some time wih anything from a six to ten game advantage over the runnecrs-up from, Lawrence there isn’t a 200 hit- ter Twith the outfit and hasn't been sfiice Joe Shannon dropped out of the select class way back in July. The hitting has been timely, but not par- ticularly sensational and the greatest factor in the long list of victories has not been the demon sluggers as of old but an aggregation of pitchers that excelled anything clse in the entire eague. All Norwich Trims New London. The All Norwich team composed of the best baseball talent in Norwich, met the fast New London Independ- ents on the Falls grounds Sunday and SATURDAY’S MARKET Speculation Favored the Long Side of the Account. New York, Sept. 8.—Speculation, fa- vored the long side of the account,dur- ing the sreater part of today's brief stock market session, with an urgent inquiry for shares which have recent- Iy been targets for bear raids. Gains ran from 1 to 3 points in recognized favorites llke the steels, oils, tobac- cos and General Motors. Pool operations were resumed with some confidence aild the shorts were sufficiently impressed with, the char- acter of the buying to cover freely in various quarters. _A successful bear raid later against Bethlehem Steel, to- sether with liquidation of investment issues, such as General Electric, Pull- man and American Telephone caused the market to relapse below the pre- vious close in many cases. General Electric scored an exceptional decline of nearly 8 points while Pullman gave way 5. Supporting _orders and a drive against the shost interest caused a vigorous rally in the final dealings. Total sales amounted to 285,000. Ru- | bles sold at the new low record of 16 | 1-2 eents.

Jackie Kane, the hero of many, many hard fought battles, played second for the home boys and showed by his head- work and good playing that he has not $gome back one bit. Jack Clabby at center made one of the prettiest catches ever seen on a ball fleld and stopped the rally. Two men were on bases and one out when he caught the ball after a hard run close to the ground, with one hand and doubled a runner at first. Ben. Houlihan made three nice hits and -played first base superbly. Young Leonard, a young man jusy starting in, plaved a nice game at short. Home Run Wheeler was equal to the occasion when hits meant runs.
