 The league directors at their next meeting will probably issue chal- lenge to the directors of the Factory league for a post-series of games for the factory championship of the city. The moguls of the younger organiza- tion at recent meeting gave it out that a series with the Industrials would not be for theirs.
 The matter of finances was gone in- to considerably. It is quite notice able, the treasury shows it, that there is considerable falling off in the col lections. The crowds attend the games, but do not give up. Wonder do they consider that the boys work every day in the factory giving up their one half holiday that others may have enjoyment for few hours.

Jackson New outfielder Takes
 Place in Left Garden

They might have been at it yet if Bobby Stowe hadn't obligingly boot ed Louis Barbour's grounder in the ninth. inning of yesterdays contest thereby paving the way for the only tally of the tussle. Then Upham worked in crazy chuck of a sacrf- flee. which was folled by double steal telling the story of a 10 de- feat for. the vanishing Mechanics. It's not a slump the boys are in, they're playing in hard luck: If they get half a run of the luck that is pursu- ling some of the other clubs, it's ihowdy to that srst place. The lSpringfeld Republ ican says of the tussles
 There was a flash of excitement in yesterdays game at Hampden park land it was a happy one too. Spring field and Bridgeport had been travel ing neck and neck,- due to the clever pitching of Hardy and Upham when the Ponies were due for their last iraps. Here. Bridgeport fell down, two erfors in succession costing first and third bases with snone out. The game looked sure for Springfield. and lit became sure double steal follow ing the third strike om one fellow bringing Louis Barbour over the plate with the lone run of the game. There was more commotion in, this brief per- iodszthan there was in the other inn ings put together, for both pitchers were simply unhitable
 Springfield accumulated but two safe hits and a scratch. off Upham and at all times had to bow to the mas terly pitching. Barbour opened the ninth with a bounder to Stowe and the latter let it slip. Then Garry bunted. sand the play so unnerved Up- ham that he dumped the ball in the general .direction of first base. Bar bour going to third. With men on third and first and none out the time was ripe for victory. Campbell wilted on strikes, but on the last swing Gar ry scooted for second and made it easy Barbour, after a delayed start, raced home and the game was over. It was unfortunate for Upham that his good pitching had to receive such tteatment, but it would have been sin of fate if, Hardy were not re- warded for his meritorious work. The pitchers had the game by the ear and never let up in their work Upham allowed not man to walk. while Hardy gave three passes and three widely separated hits.
 The effectiveness of Hardy's pitch ing may be noted from the fact that though Bridgeport twice opened inn ings with hits it never passed second base Mfl1er's single and Halls sac f1Ilce dllOWeu the IluWdy punt III the fifth, but the ball did not leave the diamond for the rest of the inn ing. Tn the ninth, Hey ,clouted to right field and Stowe advanced him with a sacrifice. but second base was the stopping point. Campbell made pretty scoop of Crooks long fly and the terrible hitter. Hi Ladd, ground ed out Rapid support was accord ed Hardy and the best contribution was the bagging of a long foul fly by Larkin close to the visitors bench. In the seventh, Larkin dropped a third strike on Jackson and then threw rankly to first base. He atoned for this by pinning Jackson stealing two plays later. The score:

YALE KILPATRICK TO WIN LAURELS
 AT BIG MEET
Special from United Press.)


 New York, Aug. 4-Easterners are counting upon J. R. Fitzpatrick, the great end of the Yale football team and Captain of Ellis track team. to win laurels for himself in the National All-Around Championship meeting in Chicago on August 13. Fitzpatrick will wear the inSigma of the New York Athletic Club.
 Since Martin Sheridan announced that he would not compete for his title this year. local sporting men have been conceding the championship to some other locality But they now think that with Fitzpatrick. New York's chances are improving. Fitzpatrick weighs 195 pounds. is strong at the weights, in the jumps and at the hurdles. He is a splendid runner in heavy field and should score a number of victories.
 Among the national stars who will compete will be Ellery Clark of Boston; Bredemus of Princeton: Furey of Phil adelphia; Gish of Seattle; Fitzpatrick of New Orleans and Thompson of Los Angeles.
