COUNCIL TO DIG UP CASH TO PAY HEALTH
 BOARDS INSPECTORS

Henry Kollmansperger, 36 Hami1- ton street, Michael Colonary, 214 Railroad avenue, and James Lyons, 365 Catherine street, will be retained by the health department as assistant sanitary inspectors if the ways and means committee of the0 common council can, find the money. Jesse B. Lockwood of 653 Fairfield avenue, who was one of the uniformed assis- tant inspectors has given up the work and taken other employment. No one will be named in his place for the present.
 The board of health sent petition to the common council last night ask ing for $6,65S which had been includ- ed in it's requisition and which the board of apportionment had chopped out. Besides money for the assistant inspectors salaries provision for the following items is asked:
 Care and, repair of autos, $1,S0O; School nurses salary $s50: two stem ographers at $500 each, $1,20O
 The petition was accompanied by a communication from the health board saying that the items asked for are necessary for the proper conduct of the department. The report also states that each school nurse now has 5000 children to look after.
 If the ways and means committee find the money, the assistant inspec- tors named above will be continued on duty. If 1t does not, they will quit the service April 1.
 Health Officer Walter H. Brown in discussing the matter said today that the money which the council had been asked to grant was necessary to carry on the department according to plans laid out. If the money is not forthcoming he said he would go on with the department doing the best he can with what is given him.

UMRIRE CHILL CANNED
 BY AMERICAN LEAGUE
 FOR BEING TOO CHESTY

New York, March 20-Gmpire O1- lie Chill, released by President Ban Johnson, has been taken on by the American association club owners as an arbiter, being a sort of second choice, so to speak ,as he gets a job in place of one of several men select ed by President Hickey, but objected to by the club owners, who seem to be running the league. If the set back from the majors has the effect of reducing Ollies cap dimensions he may yet make a good umpire. Too much ego was his undoing in the American league. He got the wrong perspective and gathered the idea that the game was chiefly for the umpire's benefit.
 Chill Is one of the most picturesque characters whchi baseball has yet pro- duced. He began his connection with the sporting world in the pugilistic ring. He was boxer of more than ordinary ability and that fact stood in him good stead many times in his career as umpire.
 When he began to slow up bit as a pugilist. Chill turned his attention to baseball. Baseball fans first heard of him when DrA Frank R. Carson, then president of the Central league, appointed him on the umpiring staff of that organization. And 1t was in the Central league that he received the training which was to lead him to the big show.
 Because of his small size, the Gen. tra1 players at first looked upon him as a good thing. That is, they did so until one or two of them tried to "get rough with the little fellow. Then they learned to their sorrow that Ollie Chill was not man to be trifled with.

 It looks as if Howie Baker made a mistake in not reporting to the Giants last season. The Giants were in need of infielders then and Howie might have held a job as substitute infielder anyway. This year he has no chance to break into the regular lineup. It is doubtful if he will relish the plan to send him to New Orleans as few northern players care to broil in the southern sun.
 Manager McGraw of the Giants continues to assert that he has not de- cided to send Jim Thorpe to Louis- vile. He admits he owes a man to Louisville as part of the deal for Pitcher Middletown but says Thorpe has not yet been picked as the vic- tim.
 Zach Wheat and Casey Stengel are the most stubborn holdouts of the sea- son.

VETERANS vs. YOUNGSTER

VETERANS vS. YOUNGSTER
 Great interest is being displayed by baseball men in the scheduled inter- league series between the Interna- national and American association clubs This series will start in August and because of the novelty of seeing new clubs it is expected the experi- ment will attract large crowds.
 One reason why the series will be watched is the, fact that the Ameri- can association clubs are largely made up of veterans who have pass ed down from the big leagues while the International teams are composed principally of youngsters going up. For years the American association has been known as the "Old Mems Home" and some of the owners have favored using more youngsters.
 eRay Fisher, the former Hartford pitcher now with the New York Amer jeans, has recommended a. young twirler named Mallette to Springfield.
