past five years turned out to see Fox
trounce Louisiana. They packed EN-

erweight champion, appeared at the
olympic club, in the City of Brotherly
Love, the same week, with frankie

THIS SHOULD BE
CUTIE SOME GAME

Everything is in readiness for the
big basketball game between Taftville
and Danielson in Nillimantic Friday
night From all reports there promises
to be a record crowd, as every auto
mobile and truck or anything else that
will carry the fans to the game has
been chartered by the Taftville sports.
Danielson reports show the same feel
ing and claim they will bring enough
rooters to help the boys take home
the championship Manager Benoit
states the fans OF Danielson are vel
come but feels sorry to advise them
that the championship will follow the
Crescents to Taftville, and to back his
argument Manager Benoit has been
notified by the sports who follow the
Crescents that they have $500 to stake
on their favorites. So bring your kale
along, Danielson, as the Taftville boys
want to spend 1t for you.
Murphy, White, Daley, Vickery
Belair and Stanley will represent the
Crescents. while Elliott, Reddy, Mar
| tin, Norton, Gallery and Reeves, repre-
senting Danielson. will make a battle
! royal for the 50 per cent. besides the
! championship of eastern Connecticut
Anyway. the game promises to be {
! fast one. as both teams will be on {

NEW HAVEN WON'T WANT
SYNDICATE BALL THIS YEAR

| With the date set for the Eastern
| league meeting on April 10, the news
| papers in New Haven and other
cites on the circuit are awakening 10
! the situation and are beginning to lay
down the law to Dan O'Neil as to
what they want in the way Of base
! ball this spring. The meeting of the
| Rotary club in Waterbury the other
night awaited little in the way OF
| baseball. The subject was discussed
! but nothing definite decided upon re-
| garding the taking over of Reidville
| park, from Harry Durant and operat-
| ing the Eastern league franchise I'M
der municipal control. George Multi

In New Haven the main change
wanted in local ownership and a
sniff of the baseball grounds from
! SSavin Rock to Lighthouse or some
other point. New Haven. is tired of
syndicate baseball and this is what
one New Haven writer has to say of
| Paul KrichelPs charges against the
| syndicate controlling the league last
| year:
1t was Paul Krichell. manager Of
| the Bridgeport club, who spilled the
| beans last season. Paul came right
| out with a cruel charge that a fellow
| hadn't chance to get by in the
| league in opposition to the O'Neil-
/ Clarkin- Plant combina ton. When
! asked for an explanation Paul gave it,
He said in bold and fearless way
/ that James II. CIar.in owned the
| Hartford and New Haven clubs and
| Morton T. Plant owned the New Lon
! don and Waterbury clubs To PauIs
way of figuring two and two made
! four and four votes out of eight clubs
i represented tied up matters calling
for the presidents disolvng vote. He
charged that President O'Nen. former
club manager Cor Mr.. Clarkin felt
honor bound to vote in favor of the
Clarkin Plant combine. That's where
| O'NeiS name became agitated with
the firm Of O'Neil- Clarkin Plant com
pany. O'Neil was made senior mem
Der in honor Of being president of the
league.
We'll, Krichell told all this to the
papers and lost his job in Bridge
port. The combipation denied the
allegations and wanted a commission
to examine Krichelrs head. Things
went along for a while until KrichelPs
statements began to look more like
truth than poetry. Most every one
now believes Paul spoke the truth,

The Treat En- Roughs lived up to
their name in the match against Capt.
Harringtons X. of G. bowlers on
Tuesday evening at the Palace laleys.
They treated them rough. to be sure.
but after Capt. Harrington's offer after
the game to play another match for a
purse it looks as if Harrington's men
had simply been leading the Treat En-
Roughs on for bet and to give them
encouragement. The first game was
so easily won by Harrington's bowlers
that their opponents wins in the next
two strings looked as if they had been
allowed to take the long end of the
score. However. the games were we'll
worth seeing and the boys were in top
form, especially Capt. Gleason and
Capt. Harrington, who each roolled a
high total of 312. and Gleason had 129
for high single, with Harrington a
close second with III. The Treat EN-
Roughs in some part sof the game
showed a little poor craftsmanship
when they got on the sidelines and
waved their arms and made remarks
to the players.
A return match is looked forward to
with interest. as the two teams after
Tuesday evenings match appear to be
evenly matched. The scores follow:

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS sULLlsH.

New York, April 9.-Disregardins
shifting and less favorable phases of
the peace conference, higher rates for
money and the uncertain status of the
steel industry, pools extended their
bullish manoeuvres il various quar-
tiers of the stock market today.
Substantially higher quotations pre-
vailed at the broad opening, a few
specialties making immediate gains of
two to five points. For the most part
these were materially enhanced dur
ing the session incessant profit tax
ing making little impression until the
final hour.
Noteworthy exceptions to the higher
trend encompassed rails, coppers and
steels, although the latter came mod
erately forward later. despite pros
poets Of an adverse L. S. Steel ton
mage statement on Thursday and mis-
givings concerning the dividend for
the first quarter.
The backwardness OF rails in the
face of one OF the most remarkable
crop reports ever issued by the gov
eminent was the subject of consider
able comment but seemed to cause lit
tie restraint among professional trad
ers.
Sensational features included Amer
lean Interna tional Corporation, which
again ecnpSed all other issues as the
most active stock, holding the great
err part of its seven point rise, or
net gain of Is IA points in two days;
Burns Brothers, at a net gain of IS
Ia points, Industrial Alcohol up ),
and Kelly Springfield Tire and U. S.
Rubber at advances of 1 3-S and is
points, respectively.
Oils, motors, equipments, sugars
shippings, tobaccos, fertilizers and
chemicals once more reflected the in
terest of professionals at gross ad-
vances OF one to four points, but L.
S. Steel closed unchanged after its
brief rise of one point. Sales amount
ed to 1,S00,0 900 shares.
Liberty and other domestic bonds
were steady, but foreign issues, nota-
bly, Paris 6's. yielded fractionally. To-
tai sales, par value, aggregated $12.-
