 From all appearances the Merchants of this town and the Rockville Mer- chants will not oppose each other again in the very near future. At least there can be no meeting till the rolled feelings of the players have been somewhat allayed. It all came about as the result of a decision made at the very end of the game which was played in Hyde Park last Thursday afternoon. The score was tied in the last half of the ninth with Stafford s team at bat. One run would finish the game. Clement Cyka started for second base and a play was made to k.. ,J safe. After some argument the Rock vile team refused to abide by the umpire's decision and called the men off the field. The game had been a fairly good one all the way through. Zelz pitched up till the fifth inning, during which time seven runs were made off him. Cyka went in then and held the opponents to two runs during the rest of the game. Stafford's store keepers had managed to make seven runs by the end of the seventh inning In the ninth they made two more which tied the score, nine to nine. The decision at second ended the bat tie.
 After many delays. due to various causes over which the telephone com pany had no control the district tel ephone directories of the Southern New England Telephone company are being distributed to subscribers. The statewide directory of other years has given way to the district books be- cause the newsprint paper shortage compelled this action. No paper, of the dimensions required for a state wide book could be secured and the district book was the only alternative. A saving of more than 100 tons of newsprint was effected by the change and as the new books are smaller and lighter. it has been possible to give these smaller books a more durable binding. The telephone districts are Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport. Waterbury and New London districts. The largest exchange in each district Is given first position in the respect i've district books. Following the largest exchange the other exchanges in each district are arranged in alpha betical order. On toll calls from one district to another where the subscri- Der does not know the correct numDer of the telephone wanted and no book is available of the district in which the telephone desired is located, the toll operator should be given the name and address of the subscriber wanted md the call will then be put through n the usual way.
