Manager Monte Cross decided to- day that he would protest the contest of Monday with Hartford, which the Crossnen lost 7-1. This is the game where Umpire Kennedy called Heine Batch "out'' for batting out of his turn. Batch singled followed by a single by McGanweIl. Manager Cross claims that Batch should not have been declared out and that with two men on the bases and the score 2-1' at the, time, the game would have. been played quite differently. The written protest was filed today with President O'Rourl1e.
 Manager Cross when. he made a verbal protest to Umpire Kennedp on Monday considered that he should have declared McGamweIl out and al- lowed Batch to remain on the base. On looking through the rules last evening Cross ran across the follow ing in Rule 515 Sec. 1: Provided. this rule shall not be enforced unless the out be declared before the ball be delivered to the succeeding batsman.' '' One ball was called on McGamwell when the error in the batting order was discovered. According to Cross interpretation the umpire could not call an 'tout'' under the conditions. Umpire Kennedy is very vague in his communication to President O'Rourke about the decision. He but states that Batch batted out of his | turn and that he declared him out. l Batch betting again right after Me Gamwen.

Teller started the boys agoingE just a, little too late, or they might get into the first di- vision. Just at present Zeller has the best working pitching outfit in the league.
 Jim C1arkin whom the roller polo promoters have been urging to place a club in Hartford this winter, says he will have nothing of the game. Clarkin believes in being stung only once.
 There is no doubt but that Bennie Kauff will be snapped up by one of the big league clubs. Bridgeporters would like to see Bennfe make good. They expected him to stay up there when the Yankees took him from the Mechanics in 1911. but his inexperi- ence was against him. They now say that he has overcome that fault and is not the wild base r1nner that he used to be in these parts.
 The league with the completion ot this weeks games has but two full T. The only chance for the residents to get into first place is to have Hart ford and New Haven drop out of the league.
