SHUTOUT FOR ORATORS IN
 WATERBURY

Waterbury, May IA. Bridgeport could do nothing with Pitcher Bannis- ter here yesterday, Waterbury winning 60, which makes the first shut out for the Orators this season. Waterbury punched their hits on Pitcher McCar- thy in the first, fifth and sixth innings, at which time they made ali their runs. Hilt was put out of the game in the second inning for disputing d decision of Umpire Murray. McKenna relieved him but did not have much to do. Both pitchers were wild, each handing out free passes to half a dozen batters. The fielding of Phelan and Bourquin of the Orators, and a double play by Swa:nder and Miller featured. The score;

 hird successive season of the Indus Erfal Baseball League of Bridgeport, ana which will undoubtedly be it's most successful season. The opening games include the U. M. c.

All these teams were tied up for first place before. the final league game of last season. In the final scheduled games the. U. M. c. team defeated the Mo- team in a thirteen inning contest 10. This left the other. three teams tied for first place and after play off the u. M. c. team was declared tho win ner These four teams have been considerably strengthened during the winter lethargy and all are out to win the pennant.
