During the next few rounds ‘Manty continued to hook in his left to body and face, his peculiar style of boxing seeming to puzzle Saviold. In the fifth round Saviola seemed at his best and planted several hard lefts and rights to Manty's body and bead, keeping after him until the bell end: ed the round.

Man- ager O'Leary of the Kaceys not yet decided upon the moun n he will send in for his team, the choice lying between Gaw and Reynglds. Fans however. remembering that Gaw begjtered Bader in a twelve inning pitchers battle here a week ago are anxious to see these two pitchers op- posing each other in the game at Wil- limantic, realizing that Bader will pitch his head off to beat Gaw, for if there is one thing that the “King” doesn’t like that is to be beaten at his own game. Gaw on the other hand proved himself as good as Bader and some say he had a le on the King, and there is a certainty that Gaw will go after another win over the high rated hurler of the Willimantic team. ‘Wilder, who proved himself to be one grand little backstop in the games here a week ago is to be back in his old position and is out to sock the pill safe at Willimantic, The Willimantic team will have be- sides Bader and Lavigne, Babe Adams jon first, and.other well known play- | ers” such as Hatkins, Oden, Conely, | Ganzel and Commerford, all of whom are capable of breaking up a game at iany time. The Kacey management has made four changes in® their lineup for the coming games, Snooks Dowd, former Buffalo second baseman will play his base. Dowd is there with the stick and in 162 games last season hit the pill safe for 174 hits, thirty five were doubles, 5 were triples and 2 went all the way around. Another new face on the Kacey team will be that of Cody at third, a former Salem Town and ex-Georgetown base- ball player who has been hitting for better than 300 this season. Both of these men will play at Willimantic Saturday. On Sunday the new Kacey imen in addition to Dowd and Cody, {will be Fortune, the Iron Man, pitch- season, A 2 ey b ’ With lineup the Kacey manage- ment and the fans of Norwich look to he Norwich aggregation clean | Bader at Willimantic today and Canavan the trimming of his “varied career” in the second game to be play- ed at the Fairgrounds here on* Sun- day. A glance over the lineups of the two teams favors the Norwich team greatly.

The Kacey backers have a yocabulary filled with the same kind of words and are out to makes Willi- mantic short of change after the two games.

Margaret Dil- 1 n, winner of the race in straight heats apparently outclassed the other two. On account of lameness Roger C., was drawn after the second heat. The 2:17 trot brought out the big- gest field of any race today, eleven starters facing the wire. The first heat was merely a procession. Chon Suey winning handily. She was nosed out by Peter Will Tell in the second mile but came back strong in the third and deciding heat. The best race of the afternoon and the only one to furnish an upset was the 2:07 trot. McGregor the Great, a prohibitive favorite won the first heat. but ran into trouble in the second when he was out-trotter in the stretch by Main Lick, the heat winner. In the third mile, King Watts, finished just a nose ahead of Carmelita Hall and Main Lick with McGregor the Great far back. Only the three heat winners came out for the fourth mile, which was won by McGregor the Great, closely pressed by King Watts. .

Y. Sept. 22—Play- ing in the east after an absence of a year, Miss Mary M. Browne, of Los Angeles, former national women'’s ten- nis champion, brought ‘the first day's program of the east-west tournament to a brilliant conclusion today by giving Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt Mallory, of New York, the present queen of the courts, the most severe test she has had since losing to Mlle Suzanne Lenglen at Wimbledon. Darkness ended the match after each had won a set, Miss Browne taking the first, 7-5, while Mrs. Mallory was vie- torious in the second by the same score. The Californian, however, led in scoring, with a total of 85 points to 80 for Mrs. Mallory and played with spectacular dash that proved her, in the opinion of experts to be as good, if not better, than last year, when she forced Mrs. Mallory to three sets in_the national singles final. Prior to the Browne-Mallory con- test, which will be resumed tomor- row, three men’s matches were play- ed and the west left the courts vic- torious in two out of three of them. Three more contests are scheduled for tomorrow, the final day of the tour- ney on the courts of the West Side Tenmis club, and should the east Tap- ture two of them, the decisive point in’ the series would hinge upon the outcome of the women’s match. It was announced that Miss Browne and Mrs. Mallory would have the option tomor- row of resuming at the third set or starting the match anew. Robert and Howard Kinsey were the viétors for the west, the former out- steadying Watson M. Washburn, of New York, in a five-set duel, 63, 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-1, while his brother chop- stroked his way to triumph over Fran substituted for R. Norris Williams, of Boston, 6-4, 6-3, 6-1, 6-3." ‘William T. Tilden of Philadelphia, and his national doubles championship partner, Vincent- Richards, of Yon- kers, N. Y., saved the east from a rout by taking a thrilling five-set match from William M. Johnston and Wil- lis. E. Davis, of San Francisco, 6-3, 3-6, , 3-6, 11-9. Johnston and Til- den’ stood out above their partners throughout the contest and it was the latter’s brilliancy at decisive mo- ments that finally brought victory.
