STON|NGTON HIGH BLANKS BARTLETT
Southern Division Champions Shut Out Webster Team to
 in Second of Series - Third Game May Be Played on
 Campus Fulton Dempsey Bout Definitely Transferred to Baltimore Shore LneFort Terry Game Called of.

The second game of the interschol- astic series was played in Stenington Tuesday afternoon and Bartlett Highs choice ball toSsers were forced to take the short end of 20 score. Massey, on the mound for Stosington, had the visitors under his subjection throughout the entire gamo4ewith the exception of the seventh inning. Jew ell, the first man up. sent up a high foul to Gremley. Connolly doubled cleanly over second. Hastings laid down a perfect bust along the third base line, Connelly going to third, but in trying to reach home on the play he was thrown out. Evans walked. Redlitz ended the inning, going out, Pepper to Gremley. Stonington scored in the fourth. Massey, the first man up, singled. Shackley also singled. Gremley out. Pepper scored Massey with a sharp double. Adamson fan ned Stonington scored again in the eighth when Evans lost control of the ball with the bases full and pass ed Leanord. thereby forcing Massey
 Both teams played much better ball than has been seen of late at the Academy and Westerly. The teams were not only evenly matched but the pitchers, Evans and Massey, both southpaws. were almost evenly mated Massey had little the better of his opponent. The youngster from Ston- ington kept his head at all times dur ing the game and although he was found for eight hits they were very well scattered. Shackley, Massey's battery mate, held him up in good style. His throws were perfect and not a base was stolen on him. The series now stands one for each ioe TT1I,r last Saturdays contest. SO The tie will be played off on some neutral ball park Both teams seem to be very much in favor of bringing the third game to Norwich and in the event 1 that it is decided to be played on the | Academy grounds a good crowd should turn out. The past two games should l he enough to arouse the baseball sport l that has been shows so well in years hack. The teams will be under a 1 heavy expense and there is no reason why a good crowd shouldn't turn out to support them.

certain sporting man in Norwich stated that he was ready to wager that Rankin could stay 20 rounds with Norman therefore considered that as no weight was mentioned said sporting man was in. earnest about the wager.
 If Rankin really wants to fight Jackie and if this certain sporting man. really wants to lose his money let them put up the money and see how quick it will be covered. If any body in Norwich wants to know how to bet they can take It from Norman that Rankin won't last eight rounds. If Rankin is hedging on difference of three pounds then the whole thing ran be considered as advertising on Rankin's part.

HOW ABOUT IT RANKIN?

U. s. Submarine Base.

June IT, 1918. Sporting Editor, Norwich Bulletin,
 Norwich, Conn. Dear Sir:-KindIy insert the follow ing notice in your paper:
 Answering the statement made in today's Bulletin by Red Rankin or his packers, I wish to state thet Jackie Norman can make neither 12o nor 122 pounds for Rankin. a fact which must have been known by Rankin and his followers before they issued the chal- lenge to fight Norman. Jackie has been serving his country in the war zone up to a few months ago and is now busily engaged in torpedo work, consequently it is impossible for him to keep in training.
 If the original challenge included the condition that Norman should make 122 pounds it would have been impossible for him to accept but as

As a wartime recreation for the civilian army at home, automobile racing proved beyond all doubt it's claim to a large share of public at tention at the opening of the auto mobile racing season at Uniontown, Pa, on May sixteenth A concourse of 15 900 people filled the stands and thronged the oval infield while speedy and well balanced program was pro- vided
 Before inaugurating the 1918 auto mobile racing season, racing officials conferred with the proper government authorities at Washington and secured government approval of racing as a war time sport. The authorities look ed with favor on the continuance of racing because of it's great aid in de- veloping speed in American motors, and the opportunity for relaxation af- forded the American public. It is we'll known that our speediest aeroplane motors have been developed on the race tracks, both in this country and abroad, and largely for this season the government extended encouragem to the present racing program.
 The eyes of the sporting world were centered on the Uniontown races for it was realized that upon the outcome of the inaugural there, depended the success of the future race meets of the season. Public sentiment, however, was found to be solidly behind the race, presaging the success of the whole seasons racing activities.
 The Liberty Sweepstakes was the big event of the day, with the Univer- sal Trophy as the reward. Four eli imitation heats of twentyfour laps each were run, with the winner of each heat qualifying for the final event. Ralph MuIford. Eddie Hearne Tom i Milton and Louis Chevrolet were the successful contestants in these qual- flying heats and started in the ibg race.
 Barney, Oldfeld driving his strip ped submarine, had mastered his old rival, Louis Chevrolet, in a Frontenac in the opening event of the afternoon winning a match race of five laps, but his work in the Liberty heats was dis appointing, and he failed to qualify for the final Chevrolet, Hearne. ano Milton fought brilliantly for first hon ors, but were not able to head off the flying Mulford who crossed the line winning, having covered the twenty { seven miles at the rate of ninety
 seven miles per hour.
 The afternoons events were replett with thrills. the chief of which came
 in rounding the famous death curve
 in the second elimination heat wher
 the front axel of Ira Vairs car gav' way and fell to the track, bearing down the right front wheel until i
 revolved on the inner rim. The ca
 rammed against the upper wall ant
 bounced back on the track at terri
 fic speed, while thousands held thei { breath. By masterfy maneuverinG . however, Vail kept his car from over
 turning and zig-zagged his way dow
 past the grandstand to his pit, amid
 nightly round of applause from tn
 vast throng.
 As result of the splendid success , of the initial race meet of the seasol
 at Uniontown, racing men are greatl
 encouraged concerning the outcome o the speedway events that are ahead Although a small city, this place ha } come to be favorably known in rae , ing circles, SC that success here pres f ages even greater things in the large . centers.
