HAUGHTON WILL PRESS CLAIM FOR PERRY Braves’ Owner Says Ban Johnson Has Misrepresented National League Boston, June 19.—The vote cast by John H. Farrell, secretary of the Na- tional Association of Minor Leagues, decided the contest between the Bos- ton Nationals and the Philadelphia Americans for possession of Scott Per- ry, a pitcher, Percy D. Haughton, presgjdent of the local club, said in a stateinent yesterday. The management of the Braves an- nounced Monday that it would not be detered in its fight to obtain the ser- vice of Perry by the action of Connie Mack, manager of the Philadelphia elub in taking the case to court at Cleveland. “President Johnson of the American League is deliberately misrepresenting the National League and the Boston club,” Haughton said, “in making it appear that the decision in the Scott Perry case was made by the National Commission alone. The president ¢f the Southern Association and_ Secret- ary John H. Farrell, of the National Association of Minor Leagues also had votes, and I am disclosing no secret when I state that it was Mr. Farrell's vote which decided that case. Mr. Farrell has long been noted for his fairness in baseball matters and while the Atlanta club in the Southern As- sociation is affiliated with his associa- tion has ssaw at once the complete justice of the Boston cluf™, claim and voted accordingly.” Mr. Haughton said he also took ex- ception to a statement attributed to Johnson that Perry was a free agent last winter. “Johnson knows better than thai,” Haughton said, “and the records show otherwise.” Shore Line vs. Taftville. The Shore Line team will try and smash the Jinx Friday afternoon when they will play Taftville on the Provi- dence Street grounds. The Shore Line team will play their strongest line-up game which will include Al Mellor, Fred Purple. “Red” Simcox. “Poley” Clish, BEddie Curran and “Stretch” - Bohnson the lanky center fielder will be in the game and the Taftville team-will find out that they will havé to drive the “old. apple” a mile to get a hit. 2 The Taftville team will be managed by Fred Dugas, which is the “word” for a good, clean, snappy game. The line-up of the Shore Line team is as expected to be: Lovenbury c, Purple, Curran and Yerrington p, Flynn and Brassill 1b.

Webster and Stonington Here Saturday Arrangements were completed Wed- nesday morning for the play off of the tie in the championship series of the high schoc] league on the Academy campus Saturday, June 22. Stonington High and Bartlett High have each whn one game and the third game is sure to be a hummer. Strangely enough each team won its game by a shut out. Evans of Webster and Massey of Stonington will probably do the twirling. The gate receipts will be equally divided between the two con- tests in school and the Academy Base- ball Association.

She has gone to France to take a job as mechanic in a garage, along with several other young women who have volunteered for various kinds of war work. There is no doubt about the fact that she will get her hands dirty and some girls might be dubious about trying to find out what ails a car when FOR HOT - We Will Call For It inning, and although wild, held the . what the weather, full power if you are using Get supplies under the Red, axd Elm SOP JONY sign—the sign Standard Qil Co. of New OLD FRIENDS ARE REST ‘No matter how rough the road, no matter , you are always sure of POLARINE ‘THE STANDARD OIL FOR ALL MOTORS Means more miles to the gallon, lessexpense to the mile.

How- ever, Miss Davis has worked in a garage so that she knows what to expect and she has no illusions, either, as to the kind or the amount of work she will be called upon to do. Some time ago a speaker in St Paul told of the difficuities the Ameri- can Fund for French Wounged had in getting its cars properly attended to in garages. The immense demands of the military branches take prece- dence over everything else. Conse- quently the motor service of the A. F. ¥. W. which has assumed consider- able proportions, was in danger of being crippled. As this speaker told of the need for mechanics and the difficulty experienced in finding them in France. Miss Davis got her big idea. . “Why can't I go?” she asked. The speaker could do nothing but take such a voiunteer, so Miss Davis went to work in a garage. Now she knows just what to do to that thingumbob under the hood when the engine coughs twice and dies a lingering death. Futhermore, she took a per- tectly good box of tools with her, gyarded more jealously than her trunk, for without those she would be in difficulties when she begins to tink- er. She improved her time while waiting for sailing orders by picking up a lew additional pointers on vul- canizing and other sorts of first aid to autos, so as to be ready for any- thing. Paired with Joseph J. Armstrong, Miss Davis won the mixed doubles championship of the Northwest in 1915, and in 19i6 she captured the women’s titie, In 1916 she also won the Ohio state title and was a finalist in the Tri-State championship at Cin- cinnati. Last season Miss Davis de- feated Miss Carrie Neeley 'of Chicago in the finals of the Northwestern Pa- triotic tournament. HARRY WILLIS WORTHY SUCCESSOR TO JOHNSON Young Colored Fighter Rated Al By Critics. It was the general impression among boxing fans 'that when the old quartet of colored stars—Jack Johnsen, Joe Jeanette, Sam McVey and Sam Lang- ford—passer beyond the useful age as fighters, the white boxers would breathe easier and feel safer with their titles, that is those who held titles. However, another colored star among the heavyweights has appeared in the person of Harry Wills and he is a good one, too. There are no others among the colored fighters just now to class with Wills and help him from a quartet such as made up the old one, although Kid Norfoik of Panama is a very promising young colored heavyweight, but not of the class that Wills possesses. When Harry Wills was in Havana during the time of the Jess Willard-Jack Johnson fight he made the remark that he could whip the two stars the same day. No one paid any attention to him and he was permitted to rest in peace with his knowledge of what he could do. Just the same there were many who saw the same Wills later who felt the same way, although it would have taken a mighty good man to beat Willard that day, for he was trained to the minute and as powerful as a team of horses. Since that - time Wills, who.is now 26 years of age. has whipped all the men who cared to face him and only recently knocked out Sam McVey and Sam Langford in six and five pounds re- spectively at Panama. Wills trained Fred Fulton for his fight with Carl Morris at Canton, O., and there were times when the two big fellows went at it hammer and tongs, Wills ad- mitted at the time that Fulton had the best left hand of all the heavies and could hit harder with it than any of them. It was Harry's claim at that time that if Fred ever met Willard it would be pay day for Jess, with the title going over a Little Frederick. Fulton stand 6 feet 4 1-2 inches and weights 216 pounds; while Wills is 6 feet 3 inches and scales 215. What a battle these two giants would put up if matched! There is little chance of their meeting, how- ever, owing to the color line being drawn by practically all states these HAVE US CLEAN YOUR ELECTRIC FAN AND PUT IT IN GOOD CONDITION WEATHER. < Phone 674 ' The Norwich Electric Co. days. Fulton had great praise for Wills and said he was more science- tific than any of the big men he had over met. What a difference it would make to Mr. Wills if he were white!
