DIG CHIEF MEYERS, manager of U the New Haven team, had better win more games than his team has copped in the past six days or one of these fine mornings he may find himself on the outside of a ball park looking in. The Chief has started in- auspiciously and his team won the nrst game yesterday. However, this is far from .satisfa ctory. New Haven CTS expect a lot from the Chief, but Apparently the Indian is not as in terested in this circuit as he would want us all to believe.
 . Up to yesterday the New Haven players had not engaged in one single practice together. There seemed to be no desire on the part of the pilot ito take out his team for a couple of hours each morning and instruct the players to go through some sort of drill. Baseball players, like stage folks, will remain in bed until almost playing time if no one keeps watch on ahem.
 2 Red Torphy has several times at- itempted to get the boys onto the ball held, but only a few have responded. Big Chief doesn't seem to care.
 Big Chief. must remember that 70 was ONLY a big leaguer ONCE. Also that the Eastern Lea que today should 1be as important to him the majors were when he was at his prime.

When Kerensky n his friends had

that the nuggets were brass. The
