DIAMOND DOINGS FROM
 BIG AND LITTLE LEAGUES
Springfield Plays at NeWfieId Tomorrow in
 Game That May Decide Pennant

l The Mechanics left for New Britain 1 at 1O:43 this morning. Manager Me Cam expected a hard time with New
 Britain in the double header. He figured on using Dixie Walker and I Uppy Upham in the box, saving Gibbs
 and Snyder for Springfield tomor- | row.
 Ivor Swanson is twirling good ball for Lynn. He recently held Lowell, the league leaders, scoreless in a seven | inning game. The final score was a | tie. to o.
 tomorrow. This game will have a great deal to do in deciding the cham pionship and the Mechanics are all | nerved for the fray. Manager Mo
 Cam will send either Chief Snyder or
 Freddy Gibbs to the mound, and the Ponies are saving Sandy Bannister.
 Russell will catch for the locals. It is expected that the largest week day crowd of the season will turn out. When the Connecticut League di- rectors hold their annual meeting they should elect a competent supervisor of umpireS A man doesn't have to be four time wonder to engage umpires and assign them to their duties, but this job seems beyond the ability of MT. Kennedy of Bristol. No umpire appeared at Newfield yesterday, and a big crowd at Savin Rock Monday, had to witness a game in which play CTS umpired. Supervisor Kennedy claimed Jack Hess was scheduled to
 be here yesterday but couldn't come
 because he was i'll. Then why didn't Kennedy send his utility umpire? Lawton of Middletown is supposed to act when regulars are unable to take care of things.
 By completing the clean up of the Red Scx series, the Tanks obtained a place ana is figuring on Washington, to-day. helping then, increase tneir grip.
 Two lone hits was all Brooklyn could grab from the former Cub. Cliff Curtis twirling against them in the Philadelphia game and now everyone is asking who it was that made the crack about the Dodgers being "pen- nant possibilities"
 The Giants had better stop resting and get back into the game for the Cubs are cutting down the Gotham ites, lead. If Tinker whangs a few more triples like the one, yesterday, the Giants lead is likely to vanish.
 Curtis n,ade something of a record when only 32 men faced him at the bat and famed only one man. Three men walked and the rest Cliff left for the men behind him.
 Rube Marquard is after revenge be- cause of his doleful finish, Labor Day, but he will probably be given rest.
 The Giants journeyed to the hill- top, today to see how they do it on the Ban Johnson field. Tomorrow they will get back into the game with Matty probably pitching against Brooklyn.

markable reversal of form. In his other recent bouts here he had little of the speed and skill that enabled him to fight Langford the furious ten rounds last night Jeanette's showing would tend to prove the assertion of some of the experts that he purpose ly has been stalling in his recent fights in order to get Langford in the ring with him. After their last fight Langford declared that he would pre- fer to fight caged tiger than the Hobokenite.

What the New Haven team needs is manager to keep the bunch work ing. As it is now they're full of pep per while they're ahead but as soon as the other team takes the lead the Wings curl up and quit.
 Chief Snyder was in great shape. With better support he would have
 blanked the visitors.
 Bob Stowe has been hitting like a f1end for the past two weeks. If he continues the pace he will finish the season above the .250 mark in hit ting. Considering that he batted about .170 for the first two months of the season. it will be a great advance for the spry second sacker.
 Foot Ruell is another who has been joltfng the leather. His triple in the seventh was one of his old time clouts It scared over Pop Fosters head and rolled to the horse gate in left field. During the first four innings when Bridgeport was away off color, Man agers McCann was turning flip Hops on the bench. He got blue in the face and some of his remarks were right over the plate. After the fifth stanza the boss was seen to smile. The old boy is hard loser and mo- body dares approach him after a de- feat. r.s,
 Benny Kauff, Skipper Eley, Foot Ruell. Tom Crook and Lou Litschi were among those who saw "The Confession" at the Park theatre last night. They didn't know what kind of show it was until they got in- side and were greatly disappointed to find no girlies in harem skirts parad- ing the stage.
 Kid Sherwood always hits hard in this city. The local boy got away with two safeties. Hi Ladd made a fourth and did manage to get one hand on it but couldn't hold the ball.
 Lou Litschi had the distinction of completing a double play all by his lonesome. In the ninth with one down and Clunn on second, Gygli soaked a liner over shortstop. Litschi stuck up his paw, speared the ball and touched second for the double out
 Clyde Waters, the New Haven catcher--has- been sued for his board bill contracted while at Williams col lege. It is claimed that he still owes his landlord $101.11. Anton Ruether is the man who brings suit.
 Harvey Russell got a big welcome from the fans. It was the first game he has caught since his injury The crack backstop showed no iu eff fleets from his long vacation with the exception of slight limp. The only man who tried to steal was Cough. in the fifth, and he was nailed Russell. drew a pass and delivered a hit that scored Stowe in the fifth.
