Windsor Locks Won.

Windsor Locks, Oct 7.-Windsor Locks beat Manchester at baseball yesterday afternoon, 0 to f, and no one seems to care how the election will go to-day. Owing to the fierce rivalry over the game, both teams were augmented by big leaguers, as the Connecticut league players are called up here. Half of the Windsor Locks players had to ask the way to the baseball park and if some of the men on the Manchester side were ever caught in that town it would be un- safe for them to appear before Judge Bowers.

THE GR4DIRON
ALL WATERBURYS
 GOT SURPRISE
They Could Not Score on the Lively Thomaslon Players-0ther
 Games.

this city yesterday when the All Waterbury football team and the eleven representing the village known as Thomaston participated in contest at Rockville in which neither side scored. As was expected in the premiere there were few bril- liant plays, and the game was not as interesting as one would judge from the score. Waterbury was just a parody on it's team of year ago, but of course there is no use making con- team has had only three nights oi practice and it was evident that il had not had much more. Thomaston on the other hand has been practic- ing steadily and showed much more life than Waterbury. Though much lighter the up town boys played with much more snap than the home team and had really good chance to score in the first half when they blocked punt on Waterbury's five yard line. Waterbury's most opportune time to push the pigskin over the chalk mark came in the second half. They had carried the ball about twenty-five yards and had it within twelve yards of their opponents goal. With two yards to go on the third down Hayes was sent through the right side of the fine but he failed to make the dis tance by half yard. Waterbury was woefully slow. In their formation plays thy were as fast as snails in getting together. And when they did get gong, they had little or no inter- ference. They passed men all right but they did not nail them. They stopped immediately when tackled and their general play was ragged. But what'sth the use of criticiing as yet. They did not lose and that's not So bad. White" Riley, Joe" Daly,Who will not play this year, Sheehan, last years quarterback, and Dodds, were out of the game and of course there was a difference. Jack Hannah did not get in until the second half neither did Lou Cronin who has been ill. New men in the local lineup were Hoffman, the old Cadet full back, who the past few years has been with Bridgeport, was at tackle and dld wei, although as yet he is not famil- far with the signals and Walter Leg ge, who has left the junior ranks. He was at quarter and although lit tie. nervous got his plays off fairly well. But he should eliminate that long signal business and run the team more quickly. Moreover the other players should leave the quart CT alone and not be running to him every minute telling him to do this and that. The forward pass was tried four times during the game but not only worked once. The first time it was used Waterbury made gain of about twenty yards. The home team endeavored to gain with it on two other occasions and Thomaston once but each try was unsuccessful. The game was conspicuous because Of its cleanness. Mahaney of the local team suffered from contraction of the muscles of the arm after the first half and although attended by pr Keane was unable to finish the game. Anderson, right end for Thomaston, was knocked cold in a scrimmage in the second half and had to be carried to the dressing room. It was an deal day to watch a game and about 1000 spectators were present. The line up.

THE AMATEURS CITY LEAGUE
 RACE UNFINISHED Merimacs Beat the Pastimes and Brooklyn is Still in the
 Fight.

Contrary to the expectations of Manager McDonald of the Pastimes, the league season did not end yester- day and all because Manager William Ghent and his Merrimaes would not have it so. In the first game yester- day the Rrooklyns trimmed the Wash ington Hills and once more placed themselves in line for pennant win ner. Manager, Mike Madden did not root for either team while the Pas times and Merrimacs were playing, but he prayed silently. that the Mer- rimacs might win so that he could get one more crack at that cup. His prayers were answered, and now if Brooklyn beats the North Ends next Sunday the strange situation will de- velop of having three teams tied for first place.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-10-07

In the first game yesterday between the Hills and the Brooklyns the former took the lead and held it in a closely fought game up to the eighth inning. Slosher, who was doing the twjrling for Brooklyn was pitching remarkable ball, but his team mates were playing the most indifferent kind of baseball. In the eixlth inning Brooklyn awoke to the situation and they hammered the ball hard enough to send four men over the plate, which was good enough for victory. The score:
 Brooklyn-Lachance C, Slosher p, Cunningham 1b, Shugrue 2b, Edmunds ss. Rossiter 3b, Kelly If, Reese of, Kopp If.
 Hills-Conrad c. Carmody p. NIulli- gan 1b, Phelan 2b. Cleary ss, Shove 3b, Sheehan If, P .Lawlor of, Cough lin If.

 I was nip and tuck game, that second one, and Manager McDOnald of the Pastimes tried hard to stave off defeat. The credit of the victory really belongs to Manager Ghent himself for when hit was needed lie was always there with the safe swat. Darkness had begun to en- velop the field when the last man was out and it was difficult to see the ball. Bill Dwyer officiated as um- pire and his work was all that could be wished for. The score:
