Another surprise was furnished when Miss Goss and Miss Marion Zinder- stein, of Boston, defeated Mrs. George ‘WL, Wightman and Miss Sears, 4-6, 6-3, 6-3, in the doubles.

Bernard Fritz, manager of our local fighter, Red Rankin, announced Thurs- day ‘night that if McDonough, Nor- man’s Manager would meet him here in Norwich that it is pessible an agreement under which a meeting of the two pugs would come about might be arranged.

Sanders pitching for Pittsburgh, gave the visitors only two hits and no runs until the seventh, when he passed two men and had three balls on the next batsman, and he was relieved by Cooper. The latter struck out the man at bat and a runner was put out at third, but the next man singled and dfflve over the only tally for Chicago.
