 Tom Connery. one of the most popular managers on the circuit, states that he will not return to the Hart ford team as a result of a dispute with Owner James H. Clarkin. This will be hard blow to Hartford fans for it was due to Connery's ability that the Senators were up in the race every year, It will mean a big financial loss for C1arkin unless he can induce Connery to change his mind.
 The trouble started with exhibi- ton game at New London. The Sem ators played there one Monday and did not tell ,Connery and the man ager did not urge his men to make any special effort to win The play CTS struck out on purpose to shorten the game so they could catch a train Owner C1arkin was furious when his to Connery or the players after the contest. He would not let them use the uniforms for a post season series with New Haven. After getting a big price for the sale of Outfielder High to Detroit he refused to give High any of the money and it was only after a long argument with Con with $10O. Connery's home is in St. Louis. There are several teams on this circuit that could use him.
 Yale reversed the usual policy this year and sent out notices to the effect that the Blue football eleven was the best in years. It makes it all the more difficult to explain when Wes- 1eyan comes along and gives the Ellis an awful battle to win by 10 to B. The chances are that for the balance of the season the New Haven coaches

FOOTBALL. YANKEE STYLE IS
 MOST HAZARDOUS OF SHORTS

] Now that the annual football mad ness is on in the Urated States, with
 most of the big eastern universities
 having games scheduled for Saturday, a considerable jump in the mortality rate may be expected. Many people who look with favor upon the popular college game shudder with horror at the sbrJTtalHty' of boxing, and yet the pugilist, compared with the player of ] the gTddiron game. is as safe in a church The pigsl1in devote is en- gagged in a contest width death, and the grim reaper always wins. For many years the injured dn football games have numbered from 200 to 500 annual ly while the fatalimes usually run
 from twenty to thirty Imagine the
 popular indignation if ten or fifteen
 boxers were killed each nm o1th! In.
 the rugby game, as played in Eng
 hand and her colonies and in western
 America, fatalities and injuries are
 seem that the ancient British pastdme
 was in it's infancy almost as hazardous
 as the modern American game. Phil
 lip Stubbs, in Q, book pu ubIiShed in Lon
 don in 15s3. had this to say of foot
 ball:
 s.For as concerning football play, I
 protest unto you it may rather be
 called a frendlie kinde of fight than
 a, play or recreation; a bloody and
 murther1ing practice, than felowly sporte or pastinne. For .dooth not ev- cry ane Iye in waite for his adversarie, seeking to overthrow him and to picke him on his nose, though it be upon nara SIOnSSE In d1tcn or OaIe, m valley Or hill, or what place soever it be, he eareth not, so he have him down. And he that can serve the most in this fashion he is counted the only fellow, and who but he? So by this means sometime their legs, | sometime their arms, sometime one 1 part thrust out of joint, sometime an other, sometime the noses glIsh out 1 with blood, sometime their eyes start l out, and sometime hurt in one place, | sometime in another But -whoso- l ,r,f scotfree but is either sore wounded, l craised and bruised, so he dyeth of | 1t else scapath very hardly. And 1 no marvaile, for they have the sleight 1 to meet one betwixt two, to dashe him against the harte with their e1- bows, to hit him under the shut rdbbeS with their griped, fists, and with their knees to catch him upon the hips, and to pick him on the neck, and hereof groweth malice, enmite, naurther hond- eide and great effusion of blood, as dayly teachetf1-' -''

SOUTHPAWS VERY FEW
 IN MINOR LEAGUES NOW

After several weeks spent in observ- ing the work of young players in the minor leagues throughout the country, Arthur Irwin, the veteran scout of the New York Americans, has come to the conclusion that the left handed pitcher is dying out.
 i've cornbed the bushes this year as never before,'' said Irwin on his return to New York, "and never did see such a scarcity of southpaws. They are not to be had.
 My experience is the same as that of other scouts with whom I have talked I cannot account for it. ex- cept on the theory that left handed persons are getting rare
 ''In my travels this season I saw very few left handed pitchers, fewer than I ever saw in all my years in baseball I'll venture the prediction that next season there will be fewer new southpaws in the big leagues than in any season in 25 years.
