got his first trial with Connie Mack.
THE most astonishing mart of Ben
dcr's return to grace is the fact that
New-York tribune., 1917-09-09

was so hard put to il for pitchers that
he decided to give Bender a trial.
He picked spots for the old fellow. Yet
the Chief was able to win only seven
games.
Chief Set Adrft
SO hopeless did the future appear
in regard TO Bender that Moran de-
cjded last winter il was time to set the
Chief adrift No other major league
club cared TO gamble on the once
mighty pitcher. Bender stepped down,
in public opinion. for the last time.
But Bender was not resigned to such a
fate. His had been somewhat care
less and care-frce existence. The
Chief did not always religiously OBJ
serve the strictest training rules.
Thrown up against pitiless Indepen-
dent existence, this hero of more than
two hundred major league victories
decided to play square with himself.
He applied himself assiduouSly TO the
task OF regeneration and with such
good effect that he finally persuaded
Pat Moran he was worthy Of one more
chance.
What Bender has done within the last
two months as a member Of the Phil
lies is a matter OF record. He won his
first six games, four Of them being
shut outs, and went, unbeaten. against
the Giants in the first game OF the
late series that established New York's
right to this years pennaut. Fate and
the law Of percentage had ruled that
Bender fail in this herculean task
But those who saw victory snatchcd
away from the Indian by kauff's home
run Of the eighth inning went home
convinced that that circuit blow ruined
one OF the Chiefs greatest pitching
masterpieces.
Rumor had preceded the Chief here
that Bender had solved the secret OF
the much discussed shine" ball, 20
which is attributed the success of the
White SoX pitchers. Bender did not try
70 disillus.ouize the Giant batters. He
kept rubbing the bail on his trousers
or shirt. just as the SoX twirlers do,
while the track was clear. But it was
noticed that when Bender got in dif-
uculty. when he was backed against the
wall. be forgot all display Of evident

With one of the largest football squads

eleven fast progressing, Coach George
Foster Sanford will start in this week
to get his men into shape, not only for
the gridiron, but Tor the fields OF

Several OF the backtield men from last

Sanford will get his men right TO

little time will be lost in getting under

however, viii be to train all the stu

ANSPORTATION TASKS
 IN COMMITTEES HANDS
Members Named and Assigned to Du ties-Freight Unloading Delay Is Taken Up.

The committee on transportation of the Connecticut State Council of De- fense, of which William H. Putnam is chairman, has been organized and is now actively engaged in handling the matters referred to it by the council. It's first monthly report was submitted at the defense council meeting last week This report was,
 During the past three weeks the committee on transportation has or gan1zed and upon our recommends ton, you have elected the following B. Brainard who will take charge of the affairs of our committee in the absence of the chairman; State High way Commissioner c. J. Bennett, who will attend to matters pertaining to highways: Thomas w. Russell, who will handle matters pertaining to au- tomobile transportation, and Edward Milligan, who will handle matters re- Iating to steam railroad tranSporta- ton. We expect to recommend other names for the consideration of your committee in the near future.
 Referring to the matter referred to us about the unloading of freight cars, we beg to report some prog ress along this line. We are ready to check up complaints of delay in un- loading and have offered our services to shippers and railroad companies alike. We are, also, working on oth- CT plans to help relieve this situa- ton.
 Referring to the reference to this committee of the peach growers pro test against the "New Haven" railroad embargo, our committee investigated the matter and found that the em bargo is in lines with the recommen- dation of the Council of National De- fense, which has ordered that as far as possible railroad shipments be made in full car lots, and with the present shortage of freight cars in this territory, we believe 1t would not be to the public interest for rail road company to supply the peach growers with cars for part filled ship ments. We are endeavoring, how ever, to suggest a plan to the peach growers which will point out a way of moving their crop by automobiles and auto trucks
