WHITLEY WANTS MONEY.
Holyoke Pitcher Threatens to Sue
 Baseball Club.

Holyoke. June 16.-Pitcher Jim my Whitley and the Holyoke baseball club are at odds and the former has threatened to sue the club for $200 in salary, which he says Is due him. The case Is now in the hands of Att torney Thomas J. Lynch, but whether or not anything will come of 1t is a question.
 Whitley was reserved by the Hol- yoke club from last season, but did not report until about a month af- ter the rest of the team. He pitched a few innings of an exhibition game and the next day went to the City hospital, where he underwent an op- eration for appendicitis. leaving the hospital about six weeks ago. Since that time he has been living in the city, but has not attempted to play, fearing that he might injure himself. As he is under contract with the team Whitley is under the impression that he is entitled to the money that his contract calls for.
 Treasurer Fred A. winkler falls to see where the club ought to pay him anything. as he has not worked any. In the first place. he did not report when notified and the club claims that he was not in good condition when he did arrive. and consequently 1t Is not liable for salary. A benefit game was played for Whitley by two amateur teams Saturday and about $50 realized.

HARTFORD HIGH WON.

Middletown, June 16.--The Hart ford High base ball team defeated Middletown on Andrus field yester- day, IA to 3. The Hartford boys banged the ball all over the lot. Both sides fielded loosely as the field was not rolled and was very rough. The H. P. H. s. will play Meriden on Wednesday and Manager Glantz is triyng to arrange the game to be played In Hartford. If Hartford wins this game she will win the cham pionship of the western section of the Interscholastlc league and will meet Windham High on Yale field Saturday for the championship of the state. But if Hartford loses she will be tied with New Haven and the tie will probably be played of in Meriden. t

PLENTY OF GLOOM.

Holyoke, June 16.-Gloom and more of it. Instead of squaring up accounts for Saturdays double set back at the hands of Bridgeport, the Champions allowed the Orators to pile on the misery yesterday af- ternoon. Not only did Uncle Jeems O'Rourke have the pleasure of watching his workers go to their third successive win over the Tigh- CTS. but there was the added happi- ness of the victory taking the form of shutout. And there must have been chunks of joy slowed away un- der Red Walters vest, for 1t was the auburn-topped twirler's second victory in the trio of games. Score story, to 0. The score:

PITCHER FOR WATERBURY.
Simpson to Help Out Twirlers- Catcher Paine of Brown Also Signed


 Catcher Paine of Brown Also Signed
 Simpson, the University of Penn sylvania pitcher, who beat Holy Cross in II innings last Wednesday, has accepted terms with Manager Durant. He has won from Yale and Cornell also. Simpson pitched good ball as a collegian. Manager Du- rant has also signed Spec" Paine, captain of the 1907 Brown univer- sity nine which won the college championship. Paine was consid- cred by many the best college catcher in the country last year. Providence gave him trial. The local management has also secured Shortstop Campbell from the Ro- chester Eastern league club. An other new pitcher may be seen in the Waterbury lineup soon.
 Edmundson was released after the game yesterday. There is a good twirler for some team to cop. Toner, the shortstop was also told to beat 1t last night as Campbell will i'll his shoes. Harry O'Hagan will probably not come here after all and 1t Is probably just as well. George Lachance says he will not go to New Haven and doesn't care whether he. ever plays baseball again or not. Manager Durant says he doesn't care as he now has his team complete. with two catchers, five pitchers, Lepine on first, Fitz- patrick on second, Murphy on third. Campbell at short and Swander, Nichols and Mullaney in the out field. It looks like a walk for Bas- tian and one of the twirlers.

THE AVERAGES
THEY DON'T SHOW
 US UP WELL
Our Big Stickers Are Conspicuous By Their Absence --The
 Showing.


 It is very easy to learn why Wa terbury is down at the foot of the ladder after glance over the hit and run column. But one man stands above the 300 mark and he has only played in eight games and that man is Nichols. There is not another man above the .250 mark, and they go lower than .150. Null fancy, who was rated as one of the heavy stickers in the New England league before be came here, has made just five hits in the eight games he has played, which sends him down to .167. The sticking has not been good enough for this city and it should improve this week or Waterbury will stay at the bottom for some time to come. The follow ing are the batting averages, includ- ing all games up to yesterday:

Our pitching department is in pretty bad shape. as a glance over the records will attest. McNulty has the honor of leading. but he stands but little over the 800 mark. Bron- kie. who has been worked to death, has only four wins out Of thirteen games pitched and really is at the foot of the ladder. as Edmundson and Mulhollsnd have been dropped. Rog- CTS and Bronkie are close together In percentage. while SilIery Is hugging McNulty closely. The following are the pitching records.

Our fielding has been better than our batting. although there could be an improvement in some spots. Here again Mullaney has fallen by the wayside, taking the low water mark, making two misplays out of his eight chances. Lepine. who mas come back, is the real leader, as big George has dropped out of the lime light. There are five men below the 800 mark and two or three are play ing close around the 300 figure. Still the fielding has been fairly good and If We can improve in the hitting it may make quite difference in our position when the next records are published. The following are the fielding averages:
