I'HENy {:

Describing the New Haven-New London game a Savin Rock last Sun day New Haven paper starts off:
 When the debate began a strong and insistent odor of cheese began to hover over the Prairie. This stench grew more and more insistent every moment. and it quite permeated Cam eron's back yard by the time things were brought to a conclusion. Ser- eral of West Ravens most prominent taxpayers said yesterday that they don't mind ball game on the Sabbath but that they have no liking for that odor.
 The Connell clan IS now sailing along full tilt in the throes of the prettiest slump it has treated the fans to since the season opened. The Wings are assuming a threatening at- titude toward Henricus Moves and his Sinks. But it will ever remain one of those inscrutable mysteries how the New Britain collection has managed to hang on to last place with the To- calls in the league. This is what psychologists rise up and declare to be one of the breaks of baseball

NOW THEY'RE AT TT.

In regards to MT. Hanna's state ment in Monday nights paper about playing the Pioneers for the cham pionship of the city, I, Joseph Huck, assistant manager of the Annex, wish to say that he has no right to play for the championship as we consider ourselves just as fast a team as the Rangers. We have defeated some of the fastest teams in the state and we have just as much right to play the Pioneers for the championship as they have. .aM ...#A# ....

SOUTHERN ASSN. TO
 BOLT ORGANIZATION
League Said to Be Ready to Join
 Ranks Of Outlaws.

Early in the season story ap. peared that the Southern association ranked as a Class A league, was get ting ready to break with organized baseball. and that if peace was no declared, next winter it may hook ur with the Federal league.
 Charley Ebbets took 1t upon him. self to act as spokesman of the Southern association around these parts. and labeled the story as ridic- ulous, though if Charley had known then where the story originally came from he would have grinned from ear to ear with reverse English. Ed Barrow of the International league also took slam at the story
 Be that as it may. Dick Jemison sporting editor of the Atlanta Con stitution last week ran a scare head all over his sporting page. which read Southern League May Join Federals..' ..' and followed up with sub-heads Southern League Rapidly Losing Pa- tience with Organized Baseball-Sev eral Magnates Disguised with Treat. ment at the Hands of Powers that Be-May Affiliate with Feds"
 So there may be something to the ridiculous story after all. MT. Dick Jemtson Is rather fiery in tel,ina about the things the cruel o. B. did or did not do to the southern league Among other things he says:
 Attacks Big Leagues.
 The Southern league has received little recognition at the hands of or ganized baseball for several seasons
 but this year not only has the recoe. milton been less but in some instances some of the club owners, presidents and managers have been practically insulted." MT. Jemison is all wrought up over the Kraft case, as well as the case of Rivington Bisland of the Bronx Rivington was with Atlanta last sea son and was drafted by the Browns
 The Browns turned him over to the
 Naps, and Sommers sent him to his
 fortland farm. Atlanta claimed him
 put their claim was laughed at, as Portland is a Class A club.
 The request granted the Players fraternity that drafted players be
 waived through all the minors be- lore they may be returned to their
 original club is the bitter pill for the Southerners. The National commits
 sion tried to save the association in
 the Kraft case, and late last winter sent out bulletin that this request
 included only purchased players. Tha, brought forth a big yell from Dave Fultz, who then made the commis.

DEvORE AND BECKER.

Josh Devore is now with the Bos- ton Nationals-a club that is suddenly ripped to pieces and reconstructed by G. Stallings. By landing in Boston, Josh completes a strange series of wanderings, which exactly parallel Beals Becker-a set of coincidences, possibly hardly equaled.
 During the last three seasons Becker, starting at Boston, went to New York, thence to Cincinnati and finally to Philadelphia, where he is now located.
 Devore, starting at New York, went to Cincinnati, thence to Philadelphia, and finally to Boston, so that these two outfielders, in their travels, have performed in exactly the same set of cities, and no others

New Works Absolutely Helpless.

Chicago. July 29.--Jim Scott had the New Works absolutely helpless yesterday and Chances crew dropped the odd game in their series with the White Sox. Only three hits did the New Workers get off the South Side finger and they were beaten 6 to 2. Ray Heating was the victim, but il was no fault of his that he was beat en as badly as he was. He had no license to win. the locals nicked him for eight safe drives, but the score should have been much closer. The score:

HERE'S HOPING.

It is cinch that the New Britain team will not finish the race in last place if they continue to play the ball that they have been showing for the past week. The cellar champions have been going at gait that holds no class B team at the foot of the race and the prediction made that New Haven would supplant them seems to be correct Scinski has shown him. self a poor director, but a mighty good sport and he deserves some rec ognition.-New London Telegraph

OAHU AND ARTILLERE
POLO TEAMS MEET IN
FIRST GAME OF SERIES

Representatives of the three polo
teams on Oahu that are to participate
in the inter-island tournament this
month, met yesterday at the Univer-
sity Club, and, with written authority
from the Maui contingent, arranged
the details of the championship meet
ing. ,E-sF J.
The first game of the series will be
on Wednesday, September 16, when
the Oahu team will go against the
team of the LIST Field Artillery. On
the following Saturday, September 10,
Maui will play the 4th Cavalry.
Wednesday, the 23rd, the losing teams
in the first two matches will play a
consolation match for third and fourth
place. On Saturday, September 26,
the winners of the first elimination
matches will hook up in the titular
game.
Win or lose, this schedule assures
every team of two matches, so that
every four in the series will have plen-
ty of polo. Inc Maui team will be
over the day of the first game, and as
this is the first tournament for several
years in which more than three teams
have figured, there is more than ordi.
nary interest in the ultimate result
