JOHNNY LUSTIG'S
 FIST BIRTHDAY

Johnny Lustig, the New York light weight, will become a regular man to- day, as he was born on June 18th just twenty-one years ago. Johnny has been scrapping in New York, Montreal and other eastern cities for five years, and although he has mingled with some mighty good boys, he has sell dom been defeated. Lustig has lately changed his style of boxing and has shown considerable improvement over his old form. The little Jew may not be made of championship stuff, but he can display a niftier line of goods than many more widely advertised lightweights.

WHY REMINGTONS
 LEFT INDUSTRIAL
 TOLD BY MANAGER

The following communication from I James J. Mclaughlin of the Refning- ton-Arms athletic forces explains why the Arms team withdrew from the In- dustria1 league:
 tIn reference to the article written in the Sunday papers, regarding the withdrawal of the Renington-A Arms team from the Industrial league, I wish to state that whoever wrote the article knew very little about MT. Mack's squareness in everything he has been in since coming to Bridge port.
 EIn this article they stated that was used as a tool to do the dirty work for P. B. Mack in withdrawing the team from the Industrial league. I wish to state that MT. Mack picked me to manage the team and when I fair and square business way, thought the team would be better out of the league than in it.
 Now, the Remington-Arnn team is not losing anything by getting out of the Industrial league. They are better off playing independent ball, for the simple reason that they have no di- rectors or officials, like the Industrial league, to tell them what they should do. N
 ''I was born and brought up in Bridgeport and I find that no matter seems that there are some people in Bridgeport who hate to see a native of their own town get by.
 'tNow, MT. Editor, neither nor MT. 1 Mack intend to fight our arguments through the papers, as it is very poor policy and may cause considera bIe trouble. Anybody who wants to argue 1 anything referring to the withdrawal of the team from the league, should, I 1 think, be man enough to come face to face and do it, instead of writing sto- r1eS for a paper which cannot be backed up and, of course, makes. it hard for the man to whom it referred to get in touch with the writer. 'As far as stating that MT. Mack was afraid to go down to the meetin g to take his team out of the league is concerned, 1t was not necessary for him to do this, his time is worth more to him than the meetings of the Industrial league; in other words, it was not necessary for him to attend the meetings, was manager of the team for him and attending the meet i1ngs or anything concerning baseball, was part of my work.
 tNow these baseball managers of 1 the Industrial league, who think the Remington-Arms team dropped out of the league because there were teams
 
 have the greatest opportunity little later on to lose a little of the money that has been glued in their pockets on what they have been talking about with their mouths a great deal. 1 I wish to state that I have been working for Mr., Mack for over year and have found him to be the sQuar- est man that I ever worked under and he is always willing to do anything he possibly can for anyone in distress. l l do not have to make this statement alone as anybody who has ever had any dealings with MT. Mack knows how square he is and I defy them to say word against him.
 | ''I do not make this statement about MT. Mack because am working for him or my job depends on it, as some of the directors of the Industrial league thought when I withdraw the team from the league, but speak of 2, man or anybody as I find him and don't forget anything he has ever done for me-"

SYRACUSE CREWS
 TIME WILL STAND AS GREATEST EVER

Poughkeepsie, June 1s.-If. the Syr- Accuse varsity creW, which won the sAtg race here Saturday, is not the Fstrongest which has yet rowed on the sEIudson then it comes mighty near to Ebeing so. In the annals of the Inter Eco1legiate Rowing associat tten- oAd JlIn sTen Eyck.s eight will not be, accorded saH the credit due it, for in later years fEhe caIib1e of @ crew is most often Judged from the time it recorded for kxhe four miles. N
 : Syracuse's time, 2015 2-5, regarded Tan a purely mathematical light was Exotline remarkable Compared with kEhe record of 1851 Is, set by Cornell i'm 1901 the Salt City 'varsity's per formance appears slow. But to one kaxho saw the contest and took note or lair and water conditions and the tao looms up as- g. com binatton~ which lDame Fortune very probably deprived Eof a new mark for the course.
 In 1901 the record was established under conditions which experts then IDronounced as remarkably favorable. fThere was an unusually strong ebb Lttde and Cornell was further favored saby the wind.
 Due to various delays, it was not tuntfI 7:19 that the varsity race was hstarted. There was absolutely no wind land the water was as calm as in a fduck pond The icrews met the slack kvvater just before the turn of the tide. kHExperts figure that in a four-mile race Ethes tide helps the crews to the extent kof f1ve- minutes. If the crews got off Eon time the four-rnile pull here is in EreaIfty not much more strenuous than b ,three-nile race on dead water, such sas Lake Cayuga-
 We believe that the calm water bsn1ade a difference of nearly two min sutes in Syracuse's time. Similar al Howances would have to be made fol Ethe other three crews. They were al 5puIled out by Syracuse's terrific gaf sRfter the half-ni1e mark and proved tthat the 1916 field here was a mighty nine lot

Rem Arms Play 14 Inning Tie in Danbury
 Neither Side Scoring

In a pitchers battle that lasted 4 innings, the Remington-Arms and the Danbury teams played yesterday af- ternoon in Danbury without either side scoring a run. The effectiveness of both hur1ers precluded the possi- biIity of either side sending a man across the platter. Wilson, on the mound for the Arms team, possibly had the better of the argument as he allowed four hits and gave four free passes while Schwartz was touched for five hits and passed five men.
 Both pitchers were effective in the pinches, and each struck out 19 men. The hitting of both teams was weak, Caw1ey, the Danbury third-bagger, leading with the willow. He connect ed for a two-bagger and single.

locals had a big lead. This is what baseball men call second guessing House was beginning to show signs or unsteadiness. Lynn has one of the best hittiig clubs in the league and if the visitors pounded out a victory af- ter Bridgeport had piled up that big lead the fans would have, roasted the manager for not removing House sooner. House might have come through safely but in order not to dis appoint the ibig Sunday crowd it was better to take no chances.
 Red Whalen was loudly applauded for his catch of Daley's liner in the fifth. Gleason was on first and no body out when the Lynn slugger hit Q liner between shortstop and second. Whalen ran over and by jumping side ways managed to get the ball with one hand. He fell in making the catch but from @ sitting position threN to first for double play.
 No player on the local club is doing better work than Jimmy Curry. The right fielder is hitting hard, drawing many passes and exhibiting speed on the paths.
 The Stove league of Pittsburgh at tended the game at Cleveland yester- day and presented Manager Lee Fohl
 
 Perhaps that was the reason C1eve- land got such a fine 1acing. Foh1 is a native of Pittsburgh. It looks as if it is up to Waterbury, where Fohl man aged in 1914, to present Lee with some trinket. They wouldn't even give him the time of day when he was there. Yale and Harvard play baseball ir New Haven tomorrow afternoon. The game starts at D. m. and a number of local enthusiasts will go to see the contest. It will be the last chance tc see Eddie Mahan in a Harvard uni foE1n. The Harvard athletic star graduates this year.

has also planned for an innovation in connection with the international meet, open to all amateur canoeists in the United States and Canada, at Sugar Island, August to 12 of this year. It will be the first meet open to all amateur paddlers regardless of whether they are members of the American Canoe Association. The cham pi ionships of North America will be under the auspices of the American Canoe Association which owns the 35-acre island known as Sugar Island, located on the St. Lawrence river be- tween Clayton, N. Y., and Gananoque, Ont.

CLEvEnAND's 100000.

Is the spurt of the Cleveland club about ended? The dash of Lee FoRrs team has been the wonder of the American league campaign so far but lately some of the misfortune, which always followed Cleveland in past years, has begun to make it's appear ance. Terry Turner, the veteran third baseman, was hurt, Pitcher K1eps- Klepfer is i'll and Pitcher Guy Morton injured his arm in recent game. The absence of Turner breaks up he>infie1d and the loss of Morton, the teams best pitcher will be a se- were blow if he is compelled to stay on the bench very long. Lee Fohl is a clever manager but it will require the utmost skill on his part to keep his club in the race after such bad luck.
 An effort is being made to send Pitcher Martin Walsh of Bridgeport to some other club. He has returned here following his suspension. It is possible that he may be used in a trade. The local club has six pitch CTS now. They are Reiger, Martin, House, Fro, Mu1rennan and Dye. All look promising but as only five will be carried one will probably be sent to some other team under an optional agreement
 The Lynn club will play at Newf1e1d again tomorrow. Manager Lou Pieper has a lively bunch who will try to upset the Bridgeport crew if possible. Lefty Dye or Bill Martin will work for the home talent. In the future all games, except those on Sunday, will start at 3:45. This is done to accommodate men who quit work in the factories at p. m.
 Some of the fans were inclined to crfticise Manager Ball for removing Pitcher House yesterday when the

Diamond Flashes

Although Cleveland has never had a pennant- winner in the majors, the Ohio metropolis has always boasted of possessing a great star or two in the baseball Armament. The passing of Lajoie and Jackson left the In dfans bereft of a top-notcher, but the purchase of Speaker filled the gap.
 This week marked the seventieth anniversary of the first baseball game between regular clubs, which was played in Hoboken in June, 1846. This historic event was permitted to pass unnottced by the newspapers In fact, itw as not until 1853 that the press began to pay any attention to what was to become the great Amer jean pastime. Early in that year the New York Sunday Mercury began to publish acconnts of ball games. The owner of the shedet, William CauId- well, was an ardent fan and the pio- neer baseball scribe. A few months later the New York Clipper took up baseball in its sporting department, and the first tabulated score was printed in that journal.
 Esprit de corps''t is what the French call the ''get-rogether,'' each for-aH and al1-for-each spirit, and it is what wins battles-and ball games. It is the absence of esprit de corps'' | which wreeks baseball machines more than anything else, anad it's presence is what makes a winning club out of | seeming second-raters. The value of this quality was never better i1lustrat- ed than at present, when clubs dop- ed as also-rans are among the league leaders, and others considered invin- eibIe are among the trai1ers.
