UMPIRE CORRICAN ONCE AGAIN IS PRINCIPAL ACTOR IN FARCE THAT

Fans Join in Booing and Kissing Arbiter, But Play CTS Find Time to Play and Win Contest.
By GEORGE HAWMAN.


 ! games seem to be the attraction at Newfield Park.
 Another one of those comedies in which the fans and umpire played big roles was staged there yesterday afternoon.
 Fortunately or unfortunately, as you will have it, Umpire Corrigan was entrusted with the role of "villyar.' and the fans took the trouble of act ing as the rest Of the troupe. Cues were missed. but pop bottles there were galore to remind the umpire that he was far from being on home territory and that 8 misstep meant something more than a geer.
 It was a very uncomfortable posi- tion that his umps vas placed in. Inn agine coming onto the ball field pre- pared to put in a days work and find ing g. dozen or more empty pop bot les lined up against the wire netting ready for a general bombardment. Surely, the sight of the police officer who was not so far away must have been defective.
 Anyway, that was the reception that Corrigan got. They hooted and booed him. And one fan calling him, shook a bottle, reminding him that this is going to land on your koko today" 'i s!FA asf asi
 And this they would want us to call a ball game.
 Some day perhaps the po1ice-if the magnates and players cannot be depended upon doing twill see to 1t that everybody gets at least a square deal and that the ball park was erect ed and dedicated to a clean American sport. Several offeding fans were elected from the park, but there should have been others. But why bother with such Rowdy- ism, the less said about it the better. The fans, however, did find a lit tie time to watch a game and the players rested long enough to play ball. And fortunately the locals won by the score to 3. This enabled the local contingent to hop into second place.
 Baseballically speaking, however, the clash was far from entertaining. Cor

What promises to be the greatest soccer game O. the season is the one that is to be played this coming Sun day at the Meadows when the Bridge port City and the Bridgeport Thistle team will clash in the final tie of the Spring Cup competition. Two games will, however, be necessary to settle the tie and in order to make the necessary arrangements for the two games the delegates of the two teams got together on Sunday and decided to pool the two gates and to play the first game at the Meadows on Sunday, and to hold another meeting on Sunday afternoon next to decide whether to play the final game at Seaside park for advertising pur- poses.
 The homogeneous of the two teams thought that with two such great teams in the final round and both be- ing local ones that it would be a great idea to play one of the games at the park where there is always a large crowd of spectators. Soccer next sea- son will be in full pre-war swing and the clubs are alive to the fact that little propaganda work at the end or this season would do great deal of good, so it is almost a certainty that
