NEW HAVEN DROPS THIRD
 CAME OF THE WEEK Inability to Hit Cornen Re sponsible = Fitzpatrick and Hit Get Homers. BUNYAN'S STAR CATCH Springfield, New London and Holyoke Are the Other
 Winners.
BUNYAN's STAR CATCH

Inability to hit the ball, especially when hits were needed, was the cause of New Havens third defeat of the week a the Rock yesterday. Nolte was assigned to the position of honor and pitched only fair game Cornen, the Orators twrler, had decidedly the bet- ter of the argument. Home runs by Fitzpatrick and Hit and pretty run ming catch by Bunyan served as feat ures in this contest. Jope was back in his old position at catch after being out several days owing to an injured hand The New Haven team played a clean fielding game, no errors being scored against them.
 Bridgeport started It's run making in the first inning Sawyer the second man at the bat, laced out a pretty two- bagger and scored on Beaumont's sin gle to right field.
 The Orators repeated their good work in the second. A single by Hughes fol- lowed by timely single by Cronen was the cause of the second run.
 The Brownies would probably never have scored had not Fitzpatrick driven the pellet far over the left field fence for a home run in the third inning sparing New Haven shut-out. As no one was on bases this pretty home run counted in but one tally.
 Hilt of Bridgeport brought the Ora tors next run in the fifth inning He followed the example of Fitzgerald and drove the spheroid far away over the high board fence surrounding the Prairie" This hit did not look as good as Sherwood's to the fans for their applause was not as cheerfully extend ed to Hilt as it had been two innings before to Fitzpatrick. This hit did not pull more than one run, fortunate thing for the Brownies.
 Nolte seemed to regain his control after Hilt's long hit for the run making of the Park City aggregation ceased.
 In the sixth inning things looked fav- orable for New Haven but weak hitting threw away splendid chance to score couple of runs With Cornen out to Tilt, Fitzpatrick was granted a life by Cornen, the first and only one by that twirler during the game, Hayward singled over third, Fitzpatrick going to third. Then Bunyan, Jack never on the "spot" filed out to Cornen and our noble Kennedy hit an easy roller to Cornen and was thrown out at first.
 A pretty double play by Hayward and Fitzpatrick in the eighth was the means of holding the Orators down to three runs. ORourke, jr, walked and Nolte hit Sawyer with gentle out curve. Beaumont was also given a pass filling the bases. Then Phelan drove out liner apparently a pretty hit over Haywards head, but this star jumped and pulled down the pellet. Sawyer thinking the drive of Phelan's was good started for third and Hay ward threw to the middle station, caught the Bridgeport player out by a mile.
 Wade tried to awaken the New Ha- venites in the ninth by driving out a two bagger but as there were two down and Sherwood flied to O'Rourke, Sr.. the hope of this individual quickly vanished.
 Bunyan's catch of Hughes drive out nearly in right field deserves consider able mention The ball looked good for at least one base, but Bunyan dove aft CT the ball and caught 1t about 200 feet from first base The score:
