Chicago, Nov. 16 — Eddie Cicotte, er Chicago White Sox pitcher, whdse confession resulted in numer- ous indictments by the special Cook county baseball grand jury in connec- tion with the 1919 world series scan- dal, probably will not be punished for his part in the game throwing, accord- ing to officials of the state's attorney’s office. Cicotte will turn state’s evi- denc when the men indicted are tried and his only sentence will be banish- ment from organized baseball, it was said tonight. D. P. Cassaday of Detroit, Cicotte's sttorney, conferred today with etate's attorneys over the pitcher's confes- slofl’ and possible testimony. At this conference, according to state officials, Mr. Cassaday promised that Cicotte would tell the court the same story he told the jury. As a result, it was ar- ranged for ihe pitcher to furnish bonds without personally appearing. The ball players and gamblers in- Qicted by the jury probably will be breopght to trial in January, it was Judge Robert E. Crowe, newly elected state’s attorney, takes office in December and it is believed that im- mediate prosecution will be instituted.

The Bantams bas- ketball club, after having _received chal es from Willimantic K. of .C. d team and Jewett City club; have now no place to play their games. The of the Bantams wishes it understood that it is not fault of his as he has been trying to get the use of the large St. Jean hall to play their games in, if they can come to terms with the management. This hall is about the same size as Parish hall in Taftville and after protecting the win- dows and lights, it would make a first rate floor. If any of the fans can find any coal to supply the club they bet- ter see Mr. Taylor. The Baltic Rival baseball club, which was to hold a dance New Year's eve, has had to cancel it that I will,” Stonington’s Side of the Story. To Sporting Editor, Norwich Bulletin: Several days ago 1 noticed an item In the Willimantic news. concerning the Stonington football team. There are two sides to every story and we would like to give our version of the affair, although we realize that the airing of such things in the news col- umns is a detriment to the sport. Te item referred to states that Ston- ington was scheduled to play in Willi- mantic and that they refused, at the last minute, to take the trip because of treatment they received in the Thread City. Al the beginning of the year we had a letter from the Windham manager. He.wanted a game, and he stated that they were responsible for the rough treatment that the team received last year at the hands of an angry mob; policement being very scarce at the time. Then just a day' before the game was to be played the same man- ager wrote us and said that we would have to call the trip off because they were going to play Norwich that day. That was the game that was scheduled and that was the manner in which it was called off. Later Windham wanted a game and we told them that we would-play in Stonington because the game schedul- ed for Willimantic had been carcelled by them. Moreover the Willimantic team has not journeyed down here in half a dozen years and it seemed only proper for us to clal m the right of naming the place where the - game should be played. We hope that the writer of the art- icle was not backed up by the Wind- ham manager. If such is- the case | there seems to be a lack of sportsman- ship on his- part and an attempt to zet on the bandwagon and sling some mud. There have been a number of contro- versies this year between high school teams, and we think such differences ought to be settled outside of the pa- peis. The public’ soon think ‘that high school footbdll”is' thyitiy -8’ ¥Fival professional baseball. Not that™we are dodging any attacks, but we think the game would benefit. JOHN L.

Distributor JAMES E. MOORE 79-81 Water Strest Norwich, Conn. / | NSPAN official overtures to be in the New In- ternational league, and neither was then considered, it is not a forlorn hope that Bridgeport will not be in the bigger league within a few years. The city is growing and is one of the best baseball cities in the east outside of New York, Boston and Philadelphia. Last year Sunday crowds of 15,000 were nof uncommon, and the daily crowds averaged better than 2,500, which is better than several of the New International league teams ‘are playing to. Gene, as he is best known in London, has a host of friends in thi: city, Bridgeport and other cities.. kit is a baseball scout of wonderful ac men and is a born baseball leader. If) he makes good with Bridgeport, and | it is more than likely that he will} make good, he may get a manager's | job in the majors. In this case he will put New London on the eporting map, for he might be able to whip a championship team together.

Nearby states have long suffered the approbrium of producing large crops of vicious mesquitoes, but happily that notoriety is diminishing through the use of modern methcds for their ex- termination. If the improvement con- tinues there is ground for believing that it will be necessary to, visit a mu- seum to find out what the insects look- ed like, - There are specimens still to be found, however, and some were re- cently discovered in a very unusual manner. In New York, on the most famous street in the world, is a curio shop where among other strange things sold as souvenirs are small pleces of amber cut into squares and rectangles of different thicknesses and suggesting diminutive blocks of brown sugar. ‘The odd feature about these little John F.

He knows Hudson is the supreme performance type among all the world’s cars. Its stock car records in speed, hill-climbing, acceleration and endurance have never been matched. Engin:en. who aim at such per- formance distinction usually ignore such elements of economy as fuel, oil But Hudson’s nctable speed, its 72% added power, and 807, greater ficnqw means no extra cost in its operation. Its speed and power do not come from great motor size and high fuel consumption. The exclusive Super- SEende - Prices 191 NORTH MAIN STREET SERVICE STATION, PHONE 1780 Six principle gets 76 H. P., from a light, conventional motor that form- erly developed 42 H. P. at maximum. Vibration that wasted about half the power of the conventional type is almost eliminated by this type. Near- er approach does not seem possible. That means that even extraordin- ary calls impose no strain or abuse on Hudson. It accounts for the way Hudsons retain new car ability when they have grown old in point of years and use. It removes the costly burden and annoyance of frequent repairs and service attention. With all the other desirable things men find in Hudson, this accounts also for the additional triumph of true economy. F. O. B. Detroit ' ERNEST WHITE, Dealer PHONE 1142 NORWICH, CONN.
