Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-09-08

Doc Reisling, known in the Con- necticut league as good pitcher a few seasons ago, has been turned down in his application for reinstate- ment as a national association play CT.
 What teams will be in the league next season to take the places of Nor wich and New London? Now is the time to start the inquiry and keep it up all winter until some two cities are chosen.
 No matter what has been said and done in the past. the writer wishes all the local players a successful winter season and a return to base ball with renewed energy in the spring of 1907.
 Naugatuck you had good many of the local fans who were wishing to see you humble the Prodigals yesterday. The old loyal rooters still stuck to them however and would if they had landed at the bottom.
 The Boston Americans are putting forth mighty efforts to get out of last place and have another month in which to accomplish task that a month ago seemed absolutely impos- sible. Now 1t looks as if they might attain the object.
 It will be. too bad to lose Norwich from the league after winning the pennant, but 1t does not seem likely that she will be retained when New London will be dropped. Jack Tighe evidently sees the handwriting on the wall and is preparing to act.
 From indications every team in the Connecticut league next season will be stronger than fin the season just ending. Each manager has lines out already for talent. There are several good players on the Nor wich team who are not under con- tract.
 The man who bet $500 to s20o early in the season that Waterbury would not land one or two, must have consulted the stars. He is probably opening wine these days for some of his friends. For a time it looked like a cinch for the other side of the house.
 Cy Miller will pitch for the Ponies tomorrow In game at Elizabeth, N. J. He will then leave his mates who are to take the trip through Pennsylvania. They will play strong independent teams. but have no meet ings scheduled with any of the Tri- Staters.
 Steamer Flanagan leaves Spring field tonight to join the Rochester team of the Eastern league and will take with him the best wishes of hundreds of fans who hope to see him back next year in spite of their de- sire to see him better himself If there Is the opportunity.
 Frank Burke will go to the New York Nationals suffering with a sore hand that it will probably be fort night before he can get into the game even if he has the chance be- fore that. Jack Hannifin Is In su- perb condition and ready to take a chance with the big fellows as soon as Muggsy McGraw says the word.
 There will be three games played in the City Amateur league to-mor- row afternoon. The first game VII start promptly at half past twelve and will bring together the Brooklyns and the North Ends The second game at two. will have the Washing ton Hills and the Merrimacs and the last game vili see the Pastimes and the St Josephs.
 Three cheers and a tiger for Nor vich. Jack TiEhe and those splendid players who fought so we'll all through the season and landed the pennant for 1906. More cheers and more tigers for the press of Nor wien vho stood by the team from be- ginning to the end So more of the same sort for the packers of the team who were not afraid to spend a feu dollars to get a first class team All am, fn~ rre remnant UfruorR
