Two Looking For
 Local Polo Club
Gene McCann and Hugh McKin- non Both File Applications
 For Franchise

Providence Aug. 25.-The 1911- 1912 roller polo season opens on Oc- tober 21. This was decided at the meeting of the National Polo league directors held at tfe--Crown hotel clubs in the circuit, with the excep- tions of New Haven and Hartford, were represented It was agreed to play six games a. week for all teams and the gate receipts will be divided on the same basis as last year. In order to avoid the unpleasant experi- ence of having clubs drop out from the league, in the midst of the sea- son, and thus throwing the schedule into confusion, as has often been the case in former years, each club this year will be required to post a de- posit of $500 to finish the official schedule.
 A salary limit of S1,0Oo a month, with pay days the first and fifteenth of each month, was adopted This liberal financial allowance should prove acceptable to both managers and players. Under this rule, the Many of the salary sharks" how ever who in recent years have de- voured the principal parts of the profits, will deservedly fall short in the compensation line. And no real polo fan will lament this fact.
 The applications of Gene McCann and Hugh MacKinnon for Bridgeport franchises were laid on the table. The magnates did likewise with digger" franchise. These applications will doubtless be subjects of prolific dis- cussion at the next meeting of the league.

Those who take the time to figure out who shall win in the Connecticut league. consider that the pennant this Or the Ponies. They do not figure that the Senators or the, White Wings will get up there but will fight it out between themselves for the third po- sition. The two teams, Ponies and Mechanics, are about to enter the sec ond last week neck and neck, in the same relative position that the Me chanics and the Waterbury team held last season at this time. Who does not remember that finish, perhaps the most exciting race ever witnessed in this tight little circuit?
 To date the Ponies and the Me chanics have met each other 19 times The Ponies hold the balance of wins 10. to the Mechanics 8. There was one tie, 3-3, that of July Il, when the clubs battled for 12 torrid innings, the lump" calling the game because or the great heat. The tie game was played of in connection with the dou- ble bill in Springfield on July 29.
 The games in which the Mechanics and the Ponies tackle each other are most important, and will have con- siderable bearing on the outcome. The 1.-two, teams are to meet each other three and probably fOuf times DeIOfe the end of the season. The Mechan- ics have considerable of an advantage as two of the scheduled three and the probable fourth are to be played in this city, The league some times ago voted to extend it's schedule one day to Sunday Sept. 10. It is understood, though not yet definitely arranged, that the Ponies will play the Mechan- ics at Steeplechase that day. The other games scheduled are Sunday, Aug. 27, Springfield at Steeplechase; Saturday, Sept. at Springfield and Thursday, Sept ', at Newfeld.
 From now on the Ponies have a most difficult schedule, the arrangements calling for them to play 19 games, but six of which will be played on their own stamping grounds. To-day they are playing a double bill in New Ha- ven and end the week tomorrow with two in Hartford. With Bridgeport playing to-day in Waterbury and the same two clubs here tomorrow, the Mechanics ought to have a good hold on first place by Saturday evening.
 Their home games include twoagames with Hartford, twos with Waterbury, one with New Britain and one with Bridgeport Their contests away from home are three with Bridgeport three with New Haven, three with Hartford, two with New Britain and two with Waterbury. With a club just now not up to snuff, certainly not the club they were two weeks ago. the Ponies will have a most difficult time holding their position.

NEW HAVEN
 GETS AFTER UPPY UPHAM
Mechanics Play Err0rless Ball But Are Unable to Touch
 Dent

New Haven, Aug. 25-Uppy Upham was hit hard by New Haven yesterday and Bridgeport was defeated by 6 to 1. The Mechanics played errorless ball but were unable to accomplish much because of Dents good pitching. He held the Mechanics to three hits.
 Hey opened the fourth by hitting to Pastor. He secured first easily on Tony's tumble. A two base hit by Litschi knocked him in. Litschi's hit was a clean one out to left field.
 After Pastor was thrown out, Sher- wood to Crook in the opening of the first, Pope followed with a bunt along the third base line, reaching a first safely He went to second on Coughs s single to center field. Foster flied clean hit to left field, scoring both Pope and Cough Gygli scored on Sherwood's two bagger to center field. Cornell was an easy out. New Haven failed to score again until the fourth.
 The fourth inning was a memorable one for Gygh. He met the third sball pitched with a crack which sent it seemed to be struck with wonder as the ball sailed over the fence. He recovered himself and pranced around the bases with the fourth run. Kid Sherwood seemed to be inspired and followed with a hit to right field. He stole second and reached third on Councils out, Litschi to Crook With Sherwood on third Waters laid down a bunt along the third base line. Sher- wood had taken a good lead and dashed for home with the fifth run. The ball could not be thrown to first in time to throw Waters out. Dent ended the inning by hitting to Stowe for an out.
 A two bagger to center field started things in the sixth, when Connell went to bat. Waters sacrificed him to third. Dents hit to Stowe, which re- suited in the pitcher being thrown out at first, brought in the last run of the New Haven nine, Cornell easily SCOT ing on the play.
 Pop Foster, after much effort. se- cured hit in the seventh His only bingle was good for two bases, but he failed to be scored. Gyglis hit ting was one of the big features of the contest. Out of three times at bat Gygli emerged with three clean hits, one of which went down on rec ord as his first home run in this lea que.

Connie Mack Says
 He'll Beat Giants
Athletics Leader Expects to Put
 Any National League Team Away

Cleveland, Aug. 25-"We are going to win the American League pennant again, and we are going to win the worlds series, too,'
 That's a good deal for Connie Mack, the aStute leader of the Athletics, to say, but Connie and his band of cham- pions are SO full of confidence now that they have put worry behind them and are beginning to speculate upon the size of the melon to be cut in October.
 ct doesn't make any difference to us whether New York, Pittsburgh, or Chicago wins the National League championship. We can and will beat any team the National League can send against us. New York might give us a harder battle than the Cubs did last year. but I would just as soon that they should win out. It makes no difference to us," continued Man. ager Connie yesterday.
 xConnfe admits that his team made a very sorry showing against the Tigers on their last visit to [ etroit right af- ter having been shut out twice in Cleveland. But he also declares that Detroit will have no such walkaway this time
 'we have not been able to go to Detroit with our full strength this season." says Cornelius.
 'COll1nS was out Of II one series, while others were more or less bunged up. For that matter, Bender has been unable to start a game in Detrodt this year. But the chief is right now. In fact, the entire team is right on edge, and unless we are crippled in Cleve- land we are going to win two or three games at Detroit. We are going bet ter now than at any previous time this summer and now look as we did against Chicago last fall. But, at the same time, we feel mighty grateful to Hal Chase and his crowd for having beaten Detroit so often. But for New York we would be in second place."

TONY ROSS
 KNOCKED OUT
 BY LANCF0RD
Tar Baby Toys With Italian and
 Sends Him to Dreamland

Sam Langford simply played with six rounds at the National Sporting Club, New York After travelling that length of time Langford cracked his left against Ross jaw and then walk ed to his corner Referee Haley didn't need to count Ross laid out as flat as a flapjack, and when they toted him to his corner was as helpless as a rag doll.
 The only satisfaction that Ross gets is that he stayed one more round with Langford than he did in their previous battle. And there is no doubt that the only reason he lasted that long is that Langford wanted to give the members who set themselves back as much as seven plunks a run for their money. If taking a terrible beating is a sign of gameness, then Ross is the game boy. He stopped Sans stinging swings with his nose and face until those affairs were badly bat tered
 In the fourth round Sam shot his right to Tony's jaw, and he did a Brodie. Nine was counted before he arose. The husky Italian then stag gered around the ring until he fell from sheer exhaustion. In this ses- sion Langford pounded Ross so hard that he walked over to Ross corner and begged the latter's seconds to stop the one-sided affair."
 There was no question that if Lang ford had let himself loose right from the start the fight would have ended before six minutes. But the Tar Baby is not inclined to viciousness and took matters easy. After slamming Ross around for two rounds Sam kept pull ing back right and lefts in the third and never tried a yard. Poor Ross was so battered up that he was unable to hit his dusky opponent.

HAPPENINGS AMONG OUR
 PLAYERS AND MANAGERS
Dan 0'Nei|'s Waterbury Club Appears al
 NeWfieId Tomorrow Afternoon

Clarke, yesterday in Philadelphia to the effect that he thought he would be able to join the Corsairs in New York on Saturday. Wagner said he thought his ankle would be strong enough to allow him to play, but that Clarke now says that he thinks he will have to play the Giants minus the services of the noted Teuton. The Giants needless to say, are happy.
 Philadelphia fans have been wait ing patiently for Marty O'Toole to pitch. Clarke says Marty's arm is sore and. not yet in condition to al- low him to make his debut
 Ward Miller, the sensational out fielder now with the Montreal club, has been returned to the Cubs. When he secured Miller President Murphy beat the draft rule by less than an hour signing the player fifty-six min- utes before the expiration of the time limit for purchasing minor league . stars. A number of other clubs were after Miller.
 Joe Sugden, the former big league backstop, is now a Detroit scout. When he isn't scouting Jennings intends to use him as an instructor for young pitchers.
 Baseball history doesn't show larger attendance figures than those recorded at the Polo Grounds during the last four days. { On Saturday the Cincin- nati club was paid for more than 39,- 900 admissions. On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday more than an average of 22,000 persons paid for tickets. In four days the paid attendance there fore has exceeded the 100000 mark, record for this city. It will not re- quire many such days in future to en- able<the New York club to pay for the magnificent grand stand which Charley Murphy of the Cubs says is the great est monument to the national game in this country.
 we may lose few games on the present Eastern trip,'' said Capt. Chance of the Cubs yesterday, sbut we'll make it all up when we get home for twenty-eight straight. Ev- CTS will be able to play then and it's just possible that I will go back to first base. The fight isn't over yet and we will be there at the finish.' If Chance remains on the bench he may decide to play Archer on first and let Graham do all the catching, Saler is a good fielder but a weak spot in the teamss hitting.

Marty O'Toole's Backstop Leaves St. Paul to Help Pirates
 Out

Toledo, O., Aug. 25-Bil1y Kelly, the St. Paul backstop who has received al- most as much notoriety as his famous partner. Marty O'Toole, and who was sold to Pittsburgh shortly after Bar ney Dreyfuss purchased the pitcher, left Toledo last night for New York where he will join the Pirates to- morrow.
 Scout Billy Murray, of the Pirates who has been trailing the Saints for several days, in an effort to induce Manager Mike Kelley to part with his prize backstop, was rewarded after the manager talked with Jack Flynn over the long distance telephone. Flynn, who has remained in Pittsburgh ever since he was turned over to the Saints promised to join the club in Indiana polls. Getting this promise, Kelley agreed to let his backstop go East.
