 1 Manager Morrissey was in commun- 1 ication with Manager George Harring- ton of the Holyoke team, who was to give him an answer in regard to F'itz- patrick, Monday evening. He, however, received no satisfaction from Harring- ton in regard to the deal to let Fitz come to Norwich. Fitzpatrick claims that he will not play with Harrington, and that he will work through the sum- mer before he dons uniform under the former Waterbury manager. Hopes of securing Fitz have not been utterly abandoned, although he may come high. New London Day. At Atlanta.
