WhleTDuTy July i.-NSW iidNeh broke It's long losing streak here to- day with a vengeance when they com pletely showed the locals under by some of the fastest inside baseball ever seen at the Readville grounds. The visitors sent two pitchers 70 the dress ing room in almost as many innings and then proceeded to hammer Eddie Farley's spitters for ten solid bingos, all of which made Harry Durant rub his eyes. blink. and finally saunter into the club house to dope it all out. In the field they played without the semblance of an error and the infleld time and time again knocked down balls which looked like sure hits and got the runner at first. Eddie Havel struck his fielding game to-day in brilliant shape which seemed to put life into the team. Candy Lachance was given a great hand by his friends here and responded by pelting the ball safely four times out of five times up. Jerry Cornell and Blondy zacher shared the batting honors with La- chance and 1t was chiefly by their de- : termined efforts that Durants team was put out of the running before the game had got fairly started. Joe Stoup, who did the twirling for New Haven. was invincible and allowed but four scattered hits, only one of which was a clean swat. The visiting team ran the bases with a dash that completely upset the locals and all in all played the best game they have shown this season. Billie Lauder had an off day at the short field, making four bingles while Nichols let single get by him. Otherwise' the fielding was clean.
 New Haven scored one In the open ing inning when Cornell drove tho ond. and went to second on sacri- flee by Pleiss. Zacher scored him by d timely hit, but was out himself. at- tempting to steal second. Simmons got O bingo but also went out running down to the second sack. In the following inning the visitors sent Rog- CTS to the hen yard. Sherwood open cd with a long drive against the left field fence and as Fitzpatrick attempt ed to hold him at second Umpire Merrick allowed him an extra base. 1Achance came to the plate and re- ceived a hearty hand. TO show he appreciated 1t the sphere sent up to him was clouted to right field while Sherwood Cote walked home. Havel made neat sacrifice and on an error by Lauder, an out and two hard pokes and a stolen base by Connell and Plelss, Bone's men sent three more runs over the rubber. In the middle of the inning Mcfarland replaced Rogers, but New Haven continued the batfest. In the following period they adood two more tallies on a free pass three singles, two stolen bases and Lauder's second boot.
 As they apparently intended to make the defeat good one the fourth inning was a terrific clouting session Stoup singled and Cornell followed suit. Pleiss advanced both with a neat bunt and Zacher cracked out a etinging two bagger scoring each Simmons filed to Lauder and q mo- ment later Zacher stole third Sher- wood walked and at once purloined second, Zacher scoring on the play Farley was substituted at this juncture and made wild pitch, Sherwood haltlng on the dizzy corner. La. chance sent screaming drive to right for two bases and Sherwood again did southern cake walk to the plate Havel ended 1t all by going out on [ close decision at first. One more came in the fifth when Waters walked was advanced on Soups sacrifice ant scored on Councils fourth clean hit In the final inning New Haven got an, other one when Lachance secured hi, fourth single, went to second on ar out and was scored by Soups timel, drive. The locals lonely run camt in the second. O'Hagan walked ant purloined second from where he SCOT ed after Mullaney and Murphy haC done the Casey stunt on Shinceli drive to left for two bases. A nea relay from Pleiss to Havel to the plat, cut off run in the eighth, but other wise Waterbury didn't have look in It's good bet that New Havener are yelling for more of this fast worl tonight for they sure were the good to-day.
