FREQUENCY OF ACCIDENTS
DUE TO IGNORANCE
Says President of Industrial Association of Factory
 Inspectors

Hartford, June A.. Governor Wood ruff extended a welcome in behalf of the state to the Industrial Association of Factory Inspectors of North Ameri- ca at the opening of three day ses- sion in the supreme court room at the capitol to-day.
 President John H. Morgan of Colum- bus, O., was in the chair. In his greet ing to the delegates the governor char acterized Connecticut as a beehive of industry and he hoped the visitors would have ample opportunity to see some of the industrial life.
 Mayor W. F. Henney spoke for the city and General Henry c. Dwight for the board of trade. President Morgan in his annual address, among other things, said:
 "We factory inspectors are brought face to face with conditions as they ex- ist in the shops and factories and to a certain extent with the environments surrounding the home life of the em- .ployes.
 "As the years go by we are confront ed with new experiences and I am quite sure none has given us more concern than the subject of accidents We are confronted no alone by the problem of intricate machinery but by the fact that hundreds, yes, thousands of very ignorant people are working in very dangerous places. Our gates at Castle Garden and other points are every swinging wider to let in vast multitudes of people unfamiliar with our language and customs, It is not surprise there fore that with thousands of these people employed in steel plants. blast furnaces and boundaries we have accidents re- ported by the hundreds during the year."

SPORTS HERE AND ELSEWHERE
HOLY GROSS CAME TO-DAY VAN VLECK WILL PITCH Students Will March to the Fled for Last Home Game
 Before Big Game.

Eddie" Van Vleck will probably pitch the greater part of the game for Yale against Holy Cross to-day. Meyer, who has not been we'll for the past two weeks. will pitch the first few innings if he is able.
 Sweeney, who played first base on the team up to week ago and who was replaced by Cushing, will be given a chance to bat some time during the game and perhaps one or two of the substitutes will be given a show with the stick
 A fast game is anticipated Holy Crcss has a strong bunch of players and defeated Yale May IS by score of 10 to f.. The Yale team is considered stronger than at that time.
 Van Weeks pitching in the game against Princeton Saturday has caused much favorable criticism among those following this line of sport. Were it not for the remarkable pitching Of Merritt of the Yale 1910 team he would be considered the strongest twirler for the varsity baseball team next year. If Merritt keeps up this seasons record next year when on the varsity, Yale will have the best college pitcher in the country.
 The students will march to the field this afternoon headed by band and all the cheers and songs for the Prince ton and Harvard games will be prac- tised. The last mass meeting before the Princeton game was held last evening.
 The lineup to-day will be. Meyer and Van Week. pitchers; T. A. D. Jones, catcher; Rushing, 1b; Camp, 2b; Church. Sb; Kinney, ss; Madden. If; Clifford, cf: Chapin. If

NOLTE WINS HIS CAME
 DRIVING OUT A HOMER Whalers Vanquished by New Haven in a Fast
 Pitchers Battle. HOLYOKE BATTING BEE Defeats Norwich in Ninth Inning Rally = Ponies
 and Waterbury Win.

A crowd of 300 rans met with a glorious surprise at the Savin Rock grounds yesterday afternoon when the New Haven baseball team won a game from the Whalers. The victory, al- though it may not be believed, was we'll earned, Nolte being the hero of from beginning to end and the specta- tors were, for change, entertained with good baseball. It was pitchers battle in which Ward and Nolte were the contestants. Both men allowed five hits and both struck out five men. Nolte showed that he had the best of the argument by driving out a home run over left field fence, scoring the winning run
 New Haven scored first in the initial inning Cornell, through Wards gen. erosity was passed to first, Fitzpatrick sacrificed and Hayward singled to deep left scoring Connell
 New London bound to at least keep up with the locals tallied in the second. O4Rourke walked, was sacrificed to sec ond by Kennedy and scored on Bar bour's two-bagger to the left field fence.
 The Whalers took the lead in the third, Ward singled to left field, was sacrificed to second by McCabe and scored on Finn's long drive for two bases to right center.
 The batters went out in almost one two, three order until the sixth inning when New Haven tied the score. Nolte was safe on Finn's error of hot drive, the latter catching the ball but jug gling it little too long and finally dropping 1t as though it burned his fingers. Cornell hit to Hoopes, who Nolte, but not in time to double up Cornell at first. The latter crossed the pan on Fitzpatrick's timely hit to right field Hayward singled, Fitzpatrick advancing to third at this stage of the game. A pretty double play caus- ed New Ravens chances to score to drop beyond recognition. Bunyan drove a high liner to O'Rourke who made pretty catch of it and then twirled the ball to Barbour catching Hayward by mile
 IL WdS III IuS u0Al 4lHlllS ludl 4NOlle won his game. Jope had died, Hoopes to Kennedy, and the New Haven star twirler reawakened the drowsy spirits of the fans by meeting one of Wards outshoots on the head and sending it sailing onward over left field fence, The hit was the longest and prettiest ever seen at the Savin Rock grounds. It did not just skim the fence but went up into the woods.
 There was a rumor last evening that a ball was found in Westville, but whether this Is the same one lies with Nolte to decide. The hit won the game and aroused new life into the 300 fans who have been waiting and wait ing for the Brownies to win a game. They now have hope that New Haven will win game, probably once every week, or at least every two weeks
 Two fast double plays by New Ha- ven and one by New London served as features. The Whalers were able to work Nolte for three two-baggers, Barbour Finn and McCabe being the fortunate beings. Hayward batted .667, getting two singles out of three times at the bat Sam Kennedy made him. self famous with the fans by striking out twice out of three times at bat.
 Tho score.

BASEBALL NOTES.

"Bill" Hayward as usual had his bat ting eye. Two hits out of three times at the bat.
 wade's throw to Bunyan in the sew enth after catching Refrange's line drive was pretty one,
 Curtiss made his daily error, but still he is steadily improving. The first part of the game three errors were of no ac- count.
 The Whalers are of some use in the State league after all. What would be- come of New Haven if the Whalers were to be dropped?
 Waterbury at present leads the State league. but if the expectations of the local club meet with success they will begin their decline to-day.
 The 300 fans at the game yesterday ven's playing. The Brownies handled the ball like professionals. Two fast double plays are an unusual thing with New Haven.
 Sam Kennedy, New Londons man. ager, was fined $5 by Umpire Kelly for talking too much. Kelly also threaten ed to put Kennedy off the field. Sam Is by no means popular with the New Haven fans and the umpire's action met with their hearty approval.
 New Haven plays in Waterbury to- day. and 1t is Vests turn in the box. Let us hope that West will not be as bashful as he was in Springfield last Wednesday. In that memorable game he could not stand the strain of more than one inning.
 Nolte's home run was the prettiest and probably the longest ever seen on the local grounds.
 But Eddie can't always knock the ball over the fence. and win all of New Havens games, for he only can play about twice a week Some one else should take the hint.
