NEW HAVEN FANS LAMENT TURNING DOWN BOBBY STOWE
With Bobby on Second, They Be- lieve the White Wings Would be Unsurpassed
New Haven Times-Leader.)


 Bobby Stowe. the local boy who is playing such a brilliant game at shortstop for the Bridgeport State league team, would certainly fit in nicely with the New Haven club. Sec ond base is the only real weak spot on the local team, and if Stowe were playing that bag instead of Stis, New Haven's chances of winning the pen ant would be increased greatly.
 New Haven had a chance to secure Stowe last season, and Bobby worked out at the. Savin Rock grounds be- fore the season opened. George Bone, then manager of the locals, decided that Bobby was not fast enough and chose Sid Washer to play the infield in preference to Stowe At that time the writer criticised Manager Bones action, contending that Stowe was the better man, and that, given the op- thought otherwise, however, and as result, Bobby was let go.
 It did not take Gene McCann-a man, who. apparently, knows a ball player when he sees one-long to come to the conclusion that Stowe could be developed into a crack sec ond baseman. Stowe never could hit que. While With the high school team, and while playing with semi professional hines around the city, he was always looked upon as an easy victim for almost any pitcher. Not so now, however. He is not only a good hitter, but he lands on the ball safely at oppOrtune times. He is also a good base runner, ranking among the first ten sack pilferers in the league. His fielding ability has never been questioned. Stowe has had but one off day since the season open ed.
 Of course there isn't the least chance that George M. Cameron, owner of the New Haven State league nine. can secure Stowe. although he realizes that the little fellow would fit in nice ly with the local team. With Stowe on second base, New Haven would have an infield, second to none in the Connecticut league.

Like Mistah Jeff, the White Wings didn't come back yesterday, having expended all their vim and prowess here Wednesday. Yesterday they were slowed away in a Al fest, Uppy Upham repeating his performance of last Sunday at Lighthouse Point when he let the same Wings get away with one run to the Speed Boys six. After three defeats in the same week by the league leaders, the New Ha- ven fans are willing to concede the rag to the Mechanics. Here is what the New Haven Journal-Courier says of the victory:
 Bridgeport, 4; New Haven, l.. That tells the story, and 1t is story Tn direct ratio. The Bridgeport team looked just four times as good as the New Haven bunch yesterday, al though the locals went through the game without a slip, while the Park City crowd had two marks In the error column. The big fellows from McCannville-for they are all big ones, with the exception of the youngsters at either side of the mid way station, who are as much alike physically as two peas in pod-cer- tainly had fat time making the Wings hustle.
 RelS1gl, DeII6T knOWH dS ou6o was on the firing line for New Haven and pitched fair game, but his work was weak when compared with that fof Upham, the man who made the Wings look foolish last Sunday at the Lighthouse. One run is all that Up- ham ever allows the Wings to make and yesterdays game was no excep- | ton to the rule. The big fellow had fine control and was never in hole There was nothing doing in the SCOT ing line until New Havens half of ! the fourth inning. Belden started things by pushing one down to Hall. who threw wide to first and Belden was safe. Cough neatly sacrificed Stowe to Crooks, Belden took third. Kid" Sherwood lifted fly down the third base line, which Nallin just tipped with the fingers of his un- gloved hand and Belden romped home. The Kid was out stealing. Miller, the long third base man for the visiting team, promptly evened up matters in the fifth inning, by lifting the ball far over the left field fence for a home run. The ball struck across the road and rolled half way up Dead head hill, the clout being one of the longest ever made at the Prairie. The following Datters were easy outs.
 In the sixth Crooks banged to the center field fence for a two bagger with two down, but Ladd went out On a difficult fly to Cough. Just to show that home folks have little re- spect for the feelings of the home team Bobby Stowe lined one out for the circuit in the seventh and in- cidentally won the game for the

GIANTS DICKERING
 FOR PITCHER SALLEE
St. Louis POrt-Sider Has Been Suspended Many Times, But M'Graw is Willing to Take a Chance

St. Louis. July 15-If all reasonable signs do not fail, Pitcher Sallee of the Cardinals. now under suspension for falling in the paths of Bugs Raymond and Rube Waddell, will become the property of the New York Giants. This is owing to the close intimacy and brotherly feeling between McGraw and Bresrahan manifested on all occasions when either can help the other. It can be said with credence. all denials not withstanding. that McGraw has first call on Sallee, and that there is now a representative of the New York club in the city to close the deal. A New York pitcher and outfelder will figure iE the deal.
 Sallee. minus his waywardness. is considered among the best left-handed twirlers in the big league. and will un- questionably place the Giants in a po- sition to pull ahead of Chicago and Pittsburg. Bresnahan has been food ed with offers for this man, but has given his old friend McGraw first call.

 New York. July 15-Hugh Mcintosh. the Australian promoter who staged the Burns-Johnson fight in which the giant negro won the worlds champion ship. Is in New York endeavoring to get Johnson to make another trip to the Antipodes. Mcintosh says he has several promising heavyweights in Australia who could give the negro a fight, though he doee not believe there is a man in the world who can whip him. Mcintosh won 8 small fortune on the negro at Reno. T never saw Jeffries fight when he was at." said the Australian. but I do not believe that in his best day he could have whipped Johnson. who is the most re- markable defensive fighter the world ever saw"
 Accompanying Mcintosh is Bill Lang, an Australian heavyweight who knocked poor old Bob Fftzsfmmons out in Australia last winter. Lang wants a match with Sam Langford, Joe Jean cite, Al Kaufman or any other heavy weight, Johnson barred.

Two of the smallest players in the league. and. by the way, two of the fastest and best players in the organization today Yesterday we had good chance to see the two little fellows work to a good advantage. Stowe and Hall furnished plenty of fireworks and their playing pleased the local fans. Stowe accepted five chances without a misplay and in the seventh inning straightened out one of Reisigl's ben ders to center field for d home run Hall had ten chances with one error. He spoiled a couple of hits by his fast and clever work back of second base. In the sixth inning Hall was badly spiked. After having his foot badly bandaged he pluckily resumed playing and even after that pulled off some fast and clever plays. No team in this league ever had two such fast little men working in the infield.
