CONNOLLY WITH BIG SHOW
Former HuckIeberry Boy With
Washington League Teams.

Thomas r. Connolly, who was q
member of the last professional base
ball team maintained in Bennington,
has been a big Lacquer for a week
and if he keejs up anything like the
pace he has shown in his first few
games he will prove to be one of the
finds" of the year. Connolly has
played FIVE games with Washington
with perfect fielding record and a
batting average of .412. In Mondays
game, in which Washington defeated
st. Louis to ., Connolly made three
of the seven hits secured by his
team
Connolly was with Bennington dur
ing the 1918 season and led the team
in batting. In the first SO games of
that season he hit for $40. When
the season closed here he went to the
Northampton club of the Twin State
league and made remarkable record
as hitter in the few games that
We're played while he was with the
team.
Connolly played with the George
town university last year and was al
so with the Northampton club of the
Twin State league during the sum
mer. He continued to show up well
at bat but his work in the infield was
hardly spectacular. He held down
the shortstop for Georgetown this
year and his work has been in keep
ing with his previous record. He has
batted like a fend and some days he
has fielded like wizard. On other
days he has handled the ball like
schoolboy.
Connolly is playing in the outfeld
for Washington and as he was al
ways fast on, his feet and sure on fly
balls he should have no difficulty in
holding up that end of the game.
While Connolly was in Bennington,
students of the game were of the
opinion that the boy had in him the
makings of big league player. He
then looked like natural hitter, he
was aggressive and never lost his
nerve What he appeared to lack
was the fine baseball sense which
