 Danielson, Jan. 2s:-The troubles of the Eastern Connecticut Bowling League, which appears to be disrupt ed, leaving Danielson's team in the league, was interesting followers Of sport here on Friday.
 -,.- Manager Frank Barber of the Ca sino alleys said that he regretted that there was disagreement over the manner in which the league had been conducted, but &disclaimed that any responsibility rested upon Danielson, which through it's representatives at league meetings, had tried to get the other, teams to agree to play all league games under recognized bowl ing rules, but were unable to do so. : Mir. Barber says that Danielson is perfectly willing to throw out games rolled on Danielson alleys, which were short. length, providing the Taft vile games rolled on the same alleys are thrown out ..
 ME. Barber further stated that the Danielson team will roll any five man team of the league, made up as they were in the. league, for >the sport Of the contest or for purse. He further stated that he stands ready to bowl any man in eastern Connecticut a home and home series of games for a purse, and, local bowlers, believing Barber to be the king pin bowler of all the men that follow the sport in the eastern part of the state are anx- touS to see one or more matches ar ranged. for purses anywhere between $16o and $500.

New.

The champions, one of the strongest teams in Cnnecticut, put up one of the best games ever witnessed on the local floors, but against Frankefs collection of stars they were poBerless to ever endanger the outcome of the game. During tine first half the champions were far out classed and. when the wsitle blew for the first period the score stood 10 to i favor of the. All Stars. In the sec- ond half, however, the Taftville boys played better basketball than the All Stars but could not overcome the
 lead gained in the first half. Mills for the visitors played a smashing game while Wassamerj Rahn; Fuller and Harvey put up the best game for the All Stars. The scoring by each player did not vary a great dea and the two teams taken together form one of the fastest agregations of bas- ket tossers ever seen here. The score:

MARKET CLOSED IRREGULAR.


 New York, Jan. 2s.-The course of today's stock market upset the calcu- lations of those speculative interests who hoped or feared, according to their commitments, that the higher discount rates would provoke fresh liquidation.
 Prices were mainly lower at the outset tending still lower for some of the more nercurial issues later; but in general changes were nominal, with no definite trend at the dull and IT, regular. end.
 The. new rates of discount of the federal reserve bank resulted in slight advance of private bank ac- ceptances, but otherwise the money market was practically undisturbed. Supplies of call money were abundant at per cent. though rising to 8 per cent. in the final hour and time funds eased a trihe, albeit again obtainable only in small amounts.
 Two. stocks stood out in the days ianguid dealings and were typical of he general movement. Crucible Steel registered an extreme advance of s l-2 points, most of which was held, while General Motors declined T points, with very little recovery.
 Other motor issues were irregular 1r heavy, with numerous specialties, put oils, steelsd equipments and ship oingss helped to sustain the construc- tive account, while rails occupied their recent obscure position. Sales amounted to 550,o00 shares.
 Heavy offerings of Liberty bonds and Victory notes. some of which fell tO new minimum quotations, were traceable. according to popular belief, to the higher discount imposed by. the central bank. Other domestic issues were irregular, but internationals re-

JEWETT CITY TO PLAY
 CONN. MILLS AT DANlELSON

Danielson, Jan. 23.-The Jewett City basketball team will come to Danielson this (Saturday) evening to play the Connecticut Mills team at the Town hall. Here is one game in which the fans are showing extra special interest, for Jewett City has a real basketball team and always puts up a snappy and high-speed game.
 Manager Reach of the Connecticut Mills team said Friday afternoon that he will have his usual strong lineup on the floor and expects to register another victory for the locals, who have been playing in top notch form of late.
 Along with the Dig game there is to be another attraction, for at 7.30, an hour ahead of the Jewett City game, the Brooklyns and Lonog's Ea- gles will try out to establish which of the quintets is really the better, a point over which there has been much discussion.

THREE NATIONAL MANAGERS
 HAVE NO WORRIES

It is quite likely that the three clubs which seem to have the most favor able chances to cop the National Lea que bunting in 1920 will take the field next spring with lineups but slightly changed since the close of the 1919 flag chase At the end of the past season the Cincinnati club clearly was the best in the circuit while the Giants and Cubs presented arrays be- tween which there was very little to choose. Naturally John McGraw and Fred Mitchell seek to start next sea- son on even terms with the Redland crew but each feels that he can weld a team of the desired class with one or two minor improvements on the material now at his disposal.
 The Giants, of course, must have an- other first class infielder to replace Heinie Zimmerman, who is in disfav : or with AIcGraw and seems slated to goA to the Pirates. Just where the much sought after player will be dig ging up is a problem which has not yet been solved. McGraw has offered the Cardinals a sum greatly exceeding that which Rogers Hornsby is worth in an effort to land the sensational Texan, but Branch Hickey has evinced no desire to hand Hornsby over the the Giants in exchange for cash. Ric- key did say something to the effect that he would. consider trading Horns by to the Giants for George Burns, Arthur Fletcher, Benny Kauff, Ross Young and catcher, an offer which deserved mention only in the comic supplement of the public prints.
 McGraw, now in Cuba, is known to have made little progress in his quest for a successor to the Great Zim, but he usually gets what he goes after and the chances are that. he will bob up with a suitable addition to the club sometime between now and the last will entrain for San Antonio. His re- sources for. buying and trading are .i.. .}at-. -'f.-.

such that success seems bound to crown his efforts in this direction His pitching and catching staffs and the outfield are highly satisfactory as they are at present constituted, and no changes in them will be necessary.
 As far as the Cubs are concerned, Mitchell already has gone on record as being content with his prospects. of snaring another championship next season. The Cubs finished the season strong and if George Tyler stages. a comeback, as he. is. expected to. they will be" hard to beat next year.
 Pat Moran regards the approach of next season rather complacently as well he might in view of the achieve ments of his club last season. His sole need seems to be another out fielder, for assuredly the other depart ments of his team have been tried and not found wanting.
 The Pirates, Robbins, Braves, Car dinals and Philhes, of course, must be shaken up considerably if the National league race is to be anything but a three -corneredS affair. In Pittsburgh,

COURT RESERVES DECISION

New York, Jan. 23.-The appellate division of the supreme court reserved decision today on an appeal of Byron Bancroft Johnson, president of the American League, and of the St. Louis and Cleveland Americans from an in junction issued by Supreme Court Justice Wagner which restraints them from interfering with Carl w.

 Appellants counsel contended that afidavits in the case did not state Mays had been hit by ball and that his house had been burned in the spring, while the Chicago incident oc- cured in July. Counsel then quoted Mays as saying to certain sporting writers:
 T am convinced that it will be inn possible for me to preserve my conf dence in myself as a ball player and stay with the Red Sox as the team is now handled"
