lmbued with plenty of good spirits (noI the liquid brand) and confident that the tables would be turned, Bill Brennecke nickel collector at the Aetna alleys, and erstwhile manager of the Single Mems alleged bowling quintet, took his latest aggregation of maple mussers to Hartford last evening to meet the Venetian trio in return f1ve-game match, and whether 1t was the glare of the white light or the excitement of, the big city that effected the locals bowling eyes, they proved about as effective against the Capitol City stars as tho oalVatlon Army would have trying to capture Verdun. The Church street povs were simply outclassed and at no time were they considered in the natch. The crowd of rooters that accompanied the bowlers had a, very en)oyable evening, the mahogany rail close to the lanes, affording them an opportunity of bathing their sorrows Tn the five games rolled, each of the Vlctors totaled over 500 scores, Car men registering high with 545 Stef- amos l25 score was the high single for the match, while in none of the games did Clementino fail to pile up mark well over the century figure. For the Vanauished trio Mgr, Capt, etc., Brennecke set the pace for his proteges finishing with a total of 496, which Bill claimed was not so bad, to which the rooters joined in a chorus shouting Not So Good Either" Joe Foote's single was the best offering the locals contributed.

HENLEY REGATTA DATE
Childs Cup Race Expected to Again Feature College Rowing Classic on the Schuylldn May 12.

Philadelphia, Jan. 26.-Thomas Realth, a member of the board of stewards of the. American Henley re- gatta, yesterday announced that the Henley regatta will be held this year on the Schuylkill on Saturday, May 12. The Childs' cup race will prob- ably be the feature event of this re- gatta. Columbia, Princeton, Navy and Penn will all enter their varsity crews in this classic. Last year was the first year the Childs' cup race had even been rowed on the Schuylkill and it proved such fine drawing card that the Henley stewards are negotiating to secure this race as the stellar attraction.
 Should the Navy send her varsity crew to Philadelphia to compete in the Childs' race Penn will not send her crews to Annapolis this year. should the Navy race be omitted from the Penn crew schedule this year the Penn varsity crew will row only three races. Yale on April 6, Childs' cup race on May 12, both on the Schuyl- kill and the Poughkeepsie regatta on the Hudson on June 21.

FEDS DAMAGE SUIT
 TRIAL POSTPONED
Phila. Judge Continues Action Brought Against 0. B. and Others

Philadelphia, Jan. 26.-The trial of
 the $900,000 damage suit of the Fed-
 eral Baseball club of Baltimore
 against organized baseball yesterday
 was postponed until April by Judge
 Thompson in the United States dis
 trict court on the agreement of coun-
 sel representing both sides. The case
 was called before Judge Thompson
 for the purpose of fixing a date for
 trial at the February term of court. Counsel informed the court that by
 agreement of both sides the case
 would be postponed until April. The
 statement of claim in the suit was
 filed on March 29 of last year.
 The suit is directed against the
 National league, the American league
 and all the clubs within those organs izations: August Hermann, B. B.
 Johnson and John K. Tener of the
 national baseball commission, and
 James A. Gilmore, Charles Weegh-
 man and Harry Sinclair, formerly of , the Federal league.
 The Baltimore club charges that the defendant formed a combination or conspiracy to injure or destroy the Baltimore Federal league club and the Federal league in violation of the federal antitrust laws. 4 The Baltimore club asserts that it suffered damages to the extent of S3OO,0OO and is suing for three times
 this sum which is the greatest amount it can claim under the law. N The suit is the aftermath of the peace agreement which was entered into a year ago between the Ameri- can league, the National league and some of the club owners of the Fed+ eral league, which for two years pre- viously had been at war with organs | 'zcd baseball. Under the terms of the peace agreement the packers of the ! Federal league clubs at St. Louis and 1 Chicago were permitted to purchase
 the St, Louis Americans and the Chi-
 cago Nationals; the Wards of Brook
 lyn, were to be paid $400,000 in sums i of $2O0O0 each for twenty years for l the new park which they had built at Brooklyn: Harry F. Sinclair, an oil l maRnate was to receive a large sum , fc, the ball park at Manhattan Junc- ton. N J., and the Wards and Sin l clair were given permission to sell | the Federal league players to the 1 h.rhest bidders in order to help make  | up their losses. When the settlement was effected the Baltimore Federal league club filled to be taken into agreement bE either side, and for this reason l br~ ught suit for damages agains. both major league magnates and clubs and former Federal league | clubs.
 This is the third date that has been set for the suit, the original date oe- ing last December, when 1t was agreed 10 put over the hearing until today. George Wharton Pepper of this city, is the chief counsel for organ | ized baseball in the suit. At the meet
 ing of the National league in New
 York last December MT. Pepper ap-
 peared before the magnates and ex-
 plained the status of the suit up to that time. ..f-

 Concerning the Eminent Chippewa. We ran across Chief Bender a few days ago down to Pinehurst The Chief is leading a rasping existence. In the forenoon he finished in the money in a big trap shooting tourna- ment. In the afternoon he collected at a round of golf That night we watched him again, this time playing a first class game of billiards. Bender is undoubtedly one of the best all around performers in the land. He has the knack of doing everything we'll, and a big part of his success comes from his cool, keen Judgment and his amazing temperament-a temperament or a disposition that a cyclone couldn't upset. At the closest part of the hardest game nothing can change the placid calm of his bearing. We know of no man in the span of sport who takes the break of the game as it comes with Bender's eternal poise.

 "In these fourteen years I've been on five pennant winning teams and have worked in five world series So I've had my share of the fun and the money, with no kick at fate.'
