THE GRIDlRON LOOKS LIKE
 LITTLE CRAWL
Manager Mike Slavin Offer. ed All Kinds of Induce. ments to Manager Walker But They Were Refused.

Manager Danny Walker seems to be hiding behind an excuse which does not afford very good hiding place, Ill his efforts to keep out of a game With the All Waterbury team. Danny has been through the game of hide and seek many times during his pugi- iistlc career and he knows just how TO utilize some of these little secrets he learned during those years. His contention that he held his offer to meet the All Waterburys open until three o'clock Monday is pretty fairy tale to tell down in Bridgeport but does the Bridgeport people know that Danny never notified the All Water bury management only through the Bridgeport papers? Just as soon as the local management found out that Manager Walker had placed a notice Tn the Bridgeport papers down to brldgeport went Manager Slavin with his forfeit of $100, but that forfeit might just as well have been left un- posted. for the foxy Danny, in order to get out of game with the All Waterburys had arranged a series Of games with Naugatuck. He still in- sisted however that he wanted to ar range series of games with the All Waterburys
 Ill order to call the bluff once and for all time. Manager Slavin went down to Bridgeport last night again. Manager Walker and Manager Slayin net in the Bridgeport Telegram office but no arrangements were made for the games. Manager Slavin agreed to allow Bridgeport to have the opening game for $200 side but Manager Walker kicked over the traces right off the reel. He had a new proposi- ton, that Manager Slavin must guar antee him $100 when he came to Wa terDury and he would do the same Tn Bridgeport. Manager Slavin agreed to guarantee him S35 and a privilege of forty per cent. and take the same III Bridgeport, but this did not suit the foxy Danny. Mir Slavin then seeing that Manager Walker was only trying to crawl out of a game with his team. made the proposition that both teams meet on a neutral field in any city in the state and play for S200 a side and the gate receipts. and let the winner take everything, but again Danny de- clined to be caught. That offer still remains open to the Acorns of Bridge port and unless it is accepted there is only one conclusion to come to and that is that the Acorns are afraid of the All Waterburys. f.
 sunday the strong Franklin team of New Haven will appear here. This team ranks next to the college eIev- ems and Is fast one.

San Francisco, Oct 20.-Buddy Ryan, who until recently was considered a likely candidate for the welterweight championship, is ill danger of losing completely the use of his left eye. Ryan at present cannot see from this eye and an expert oculist holds out little hope of the scrapper ever regain ing its sight There is some year of sympathetic affection of the right eye. Ryan's injury is the result of a fight with Johnny Reid. manager of fighters. The dispute arose over some trivial matter and Reid slashed Ryan with a knife. The blade of the knife entered the eyeball and severed the pupil.
