THIS BIRD ALMOST EXTINCT
The Hula Is One of the Rarest Spe-
Giles That Exist Anywhere In
the World.

Auckland, N. Z.-Here is picture OF
a male and female huia-one of the
rarest species of birds that exist any
where in the world. The hula are also
the most domestic.
AS you see in the picture, the male
hula is pecking off the bark so that
his wife may find her food. The male
has strong, sharp beak; the female
slender, long, incurved beak. So
the male takes upon himself the bur
den of the heavy work in finding food.

The win put the Mechanics in position to rub elbows with Tom Connery's league leaders. The Senators are now but a game and a half ahead of McCann's band. The Mechanics, as the score shows, had most of the speed and life of the game, the Wings showing spasmodic bursts only in the fifth and eighth sessions.
 Clunn pitched a good game for the Wings, but Snyder worked better and was given better support.

Dan 0'NeiI Goes
 On Trip To Cuba
Must Have Marsans and Almeida in Cincinnati
 Before July 1

New Britain. June 22-Daniel O'Neil, owner and manager of the New Bri- tain baseball team, left for New York last night and he will sail for Cuba tomorrow morning. He is going to the island to see if he can bring Mar sans and Almeida back to this coun- try. He got word today from Cin- cinnati that the papers for the sign- ing of the two men were ready but the players must report by July 1 or the proposed purchase will be off. Manager O'Neil does not want to lose the $1,500 offered for the men and if he locates the Cubans he will bring them back if he is obliged to use bandcuffs and Oregon boots.
 Manager O'Neil's trip was arraign- ed at short notice. He has never been out of the country before and never made long journey from home Senor Cabbage gave him directions about where to go to look for his compa- triots and Billy Hanna supplied him with his English-Spanish dictionary, so he will be able to order what he wants when he gets to Havana and if he wants a chile con carne he won't be served with a brandy and soda. Mir. Cabbage explained to his manager as we'll as he could about what he should do when he reaches Cuba and MT. O'Neil promised faithfully to car ry out the directions.
 During the absence of the owner, the New Britain team will be managed by Captain Waterman and MT. O'Neil's son, Frank O'Neil, will look after the business end of the enterprise.

Encourage Youngster
 Says Manager Ganzel
Rochester Leader Criticises Boston Policy in Taking Out First Baseman
 Baker

The Red Sox tried a young first baseman named Baker in the game in New York on Monday. He han dled himself well and was not to blame when a crazy wild throw by Shortstop Wagner got away from him But somebody connected with the Boston club evidently held a different opinion for Engle was quickly substi- tuted.
 That isn't the way to encourage a young player" said John Ganzel, manager of the Rochesters. Baker couldn't have stopped that wild throw with a net. ' To be removed summar- fly for something he didn't do isn't calculated to make the boy happy. Many a young player has been ruined by such handling. If a new conner has quality enough to get chance on a big team he should be made to feel perfectly at home. Confidence is half the battle, and when you deprive youngster of that quality he cannot do himself justice.''
 Ganzel who has won two pennants in Rochester, is an advocate of work ing pitchers in rotation. He says it isn't too much to ask boxman to pitch every fourth day. That is the way many critics believe the pitchers should be work ed. It is argued that if Ford, Quinn, Fisher, Warhop and Vaughn could be worked in regular turn their pitching

Connie Mack Has
 Lafayette Phenom
Athletics Manager Signs Pitcher Long, Who Made
 Great College Record

Philadelphia, June 22.-Lester Long of Summit N J., the sensational twirler of Lafayette College. will join the class of Connie Mack at the school yard tomorrow afternoon in time ito don a rig and work out prior to the final clash with the Washingtons at Shibe Park Mike brennan, the husky scout of the Mack family, looked Long oyer recently and liking his actions and looks flashed the good word on to Connie the silent at the coming tow CT at Twenty-frst and Lehigh avenue. It did not take Mack long to come to an understanding with the Easton phenom.
 Long has pitched wonderful ball for Lafayette this year, having to his credit not-hit no-run game against Pennsylvania and various oth. CT scalps from many colleges. Yes terday he twirled his last game for Lafayette, beating the South Orange Club by II to 8 holding them to six hits and flaming fifteen. Long, in addition to being a really good pitcher can also stock some, for he has won many a game for Lafayette by time ly hitting. Long was second pitch CT on the Easton College nine when DeMott was the shining star at La fayette. DeMott joined Cleveland last year. but not meeting with success was sent to the American Association few weeks ago.
 McAleer of the Washington Club and Arthur Irwin of the Yankees were also angling for Long, but Mack's able bodied man beat them to him.

Over in New Haven they think famed II men, He could always make a strikeout record. but it will be noticed that the Mechanics tapped him in the pinches.
 Waterbury here tomorrow. The Pacers have been strengthened by Newton and Flanagan of the defunct Northampton team. Tom Tuckey, who has won two games from Bridge port this season, will probably be sent agalnst the Mechanics. Manager Mo Cam expects to give Freddy Gibbs the job of beating the Brass City bunch. Game called at 3:45.
 In the past four games the Me chanics have been pitted against three left handlers, and have trimmed the southpaws each time. It looks as if they were putting the rollers under tbat hoodoo.
 Rufe Rufiange, the man who keeps the safety razor factories working overtime, says there is a great demand for his services since he was released by New Britain. He declares that and Lancaster of the Tri-State are clamoring for his services Rufe got his last shave in New Britain at high noon yesterday, and by o'clock he needed another.
 Tretter, the Holyoke twirler. joined Hartford yesterday and was hurled against New Britain in that clouting party. He was tapped for six hits in one-third of an inning and then re- tired in favor of Rossbach.
 
 Benny Kauff spent his holiday Mon- day in playing ball. He went to New York to see the Yankees play the Red SoX, and before the contest he donned an old New York uniform and did practice stunts on the field with the Yankee squad. "I wish they stuck me in there against Joe Wood,' says Benny. Those guys couldn't touch the Boston speed merchant, but I'd have walloped him a few" Nothing like the old confidence.
 Jimmy Hall has an offer from Erie, Pa. This club is in the Ohio-Penn- sylvania league. a Class c organiza- tion. Billy Gilbert, the former Giant second baseman, is manager of the club. Jimmy hopes to catch on with some Connecticut league team so that he will receive his back salary.
 Dan ONeil, who signed four North ampton players. says he paid them $400 in back salary. If Dan turns those Cubans over to Cincinnati he wont bother with such a mere trifle as s400.. He is to get s1,500 when Marsans\ and Almeida are delivered and S5,000 more if they make good.

 Snyder besides pitching a remark able game performed wonders in the fielding line. He smothered three hard drives getting his men at first EIec- trifying was his stop from Burke's bat. Burke always has ginger behind his slaps, this one not being out of the ordinary.

 Among the Park City fans who took the trip to Savin Rock to see the fun were Joe Barry, Leo Loughlin, Joe Muldoon. Fred Fitzpatrick. Benny Thorpe and Mike Kelly, the famous ticket taker.
 The New Haven Palladium insists that Umpire Dick Nallin should have an assist on Bridgeport's first run, and that the score should be 80 in favor Of the Wings. They blame the defeat to the Wings errors and not for the inability to hit Snyder, the real reason.
 Benny Kauff tried to make a pick up of Burke's drive in the eighth and 9 fling to the plate, but the ball got by him. Burke attempted to make the same play on Ladd's drive in the same inning. with the same result However the New Haven scorers give RfIT TJn fIVn0 ho4 or,6 uiv gle. with an error for Burke.

would produce better results. Quinn is especially in need of steady work. He is heavyweight and, as in the cases of other men of his size, practice makes perfect. When a ball team becomes accustomed to play behind certain. pitchers in rotation it is 8 matter of record that they work with greater steadiness and confidence. It has often been shown that the success full teams in major or minor leagues are dependent upon the regular hand ling of four or five good pitchers and that the trailers generally can blame their failures to cratic methods in this respect.
