 SHOW GRIT AND WIN
Manager Sweets Boys Stage
 Great Ninth Inning Rally

A solid smash in the ninth inning by Barney Bransfield, with two men on the hassocks. that escaped Red Corners in centerfiel1 allowing Bar ney to complete the circuit, brought a victory to the New Britain Ma chine Company team over Polis of Hartford, Saturday. It was a large and enthusiastic crowd that viewed the contest, which was the feature event of the outing given by the Mutual Benefit association of the factory. The final score was to 3. It was a string team that Manager Sweet put in the field with Andy Meyerjack on the mound and and Mickney Noonan catching. Both earned an honest days pay.
 Opposing the local batsmen was Brown, said to be a star in the Steel league. Hs is the same hurler that the M. R. Schenck team of Meriden brcugh here before the Kaiser tried to run the whole world. On his initial visit to the Hardware city. Brown was driven off the mound by the Pioneers batsmen. led by Billy Du- dack. In Saturdays game he seemed destined to finally break into the win column. but "Bambino" BransfieId's clout dashed on the rocks his hopes. The New Britain Machine company team exhibited fine spirit of game ness, when with two runs in the rear, the players went right after Brown in the closing stanza and before 9 batter had been retired. a victory was registered.
 The Big Rally
 In the closing stanza. Green opened with a single, and Ray Begley fol- lowed suit. Then the crowd went wild. Bransfield was implored to knock the ball out of the lot. His first attempt resulted in a vicious drive down the field foul line. Brown then shot one across waist high, and a sharp sound was heard. The ball travelled we'll on a line over second base. Corners came in fast trying to make a shoe- string catch. His judgment was bad and Green and Begley sped across the rubber with the tying run. Bransfield in the meantime was logging it as fast as his pedals would carry him. It looked as if he might he held at third base. as Corners and Pi1lion had To- cated the Draper and Maynard out in the lot. However Bransfield kept right on. and as he nePred the platter he lunged a corking fine slid, beating Griffin's throw to Muldoon. and the game was over. sss ts n
 The Babe Gets One
 The visitors registered their tallies in the sixth inning when Babe Clark pounded out a homer to the wilder ness in left field. which Bransfieh played poorly. An error by Green followed by a hit by Islieb and an error by Meyerjack. accounted for the other two tallies by the visitors. The Machine company team scored the first tally in the fourth inning on hits by Green and Meyerjack and an error by Reill1k 1s# t 4

Rescue Of Girl Slaves.

Rescuing Armenian girls from Turk
ish harems is not SO easy an adven-
ture as may be supposed, principally
owing to the lies told them by the
sheikhs, who declare that "the Chris
tian dogs" make them work from sun
rise to sunset and give them next to
no food, and later send them to the
dark regions Of central Africa. Con-
sequently, when two missionaries,
with an automobile, reached the house
of q sheikh with the object of deliv-
ering three Armenian young women
from his power, the girls, despite the
evidence; that they were given Of the
bona fides of their deliverers, at first
refused to leave their slave master.
Even when on their way to Aleppo in
comfortable cars, they were far from
uuieted. The sight Of an Armenian
priest at length gave them the needed
assurance, however, and then the girls
wanted to be slaves to their new mas
tiers for all time.

Indications That Young Woman Had

Broken Watch Chain Also
Found Near Body.

New York.-The body of beautiful
and well-dressed woman was found In
q clump of bushes on the Palisades
near Clifside, N. ]. She was between
18 and 20 years Of age.
A few feet from where she was
found was evidence that she had
fought a desperate battle with the
slayer.
The victim was identified by VIII
liam f. Ehrmans of New York City
as that Of his 20-year-old daughter
Florence. He said she had been miss
ing from home for several days.
Clutched In her hand was a frag-
ment torn from a dark blue coat, sup
posedly worn by the man who at
tackled her.
Hanging on trampled group of OK
eyed daisies was mans watch chain.
Her right hand was covered with
blood. This watch chain is closely
guarded by Acting Prosecutor Charles
]. Mccarthy of Bergen county, New
Jersey, as the likeliest clew to the
young woman's murderer.

It is eight inches long, with a round

A little boy, Louis di Sciascio, son

in the bushes, found the body. He told
Policeman William O'Brien.
An examination by County Physi-
clan William E. Ogden disclosed that
the young woman's skull was frac-
tured.
DIR. Ogden said that her assailant
must have been infuriated during his
attack. The front part Of the skull
had been badly battered, probably
with q stone, while the back Of the
head had been split by contact with a

KING GEORGE GIVES
$500 TO ATHLETES
British Monarch Heads List for
Britain's Olympic Team
Expenses

London, Feb. liking George has
made the first definite move to start
fund to defray the expenses Of the
British athletes to the Olympic games
at Antwerp by contribution of $500,
and it is expected that the move will
be followed by other subscriptions in
the near future. 1t has always been
the custom that when the ruler heads
anything in England the aristocracy
follows. and this means that the ath
letic team will have plenty of money
in due course. For some time past
there has been considerable discussion
in England about the probable source
of money for the athletic expenses, as
it was thought that not less than $780,
600 would be needed for the Olympic
outfit. but when the situation simmered
out it was found that less than half
the sum would be sufficient.
The Amateur Swimming Association
of England has announced that it has
fund of $4,000 set aside for the purpose
of sending its best swimmers and water
polo players to Belgium. Even thus
early a plan of campaign has been
mapped out by the swimmers and only
the very best men will have places on
the teams and their amateur status will
have to be without question. \ string
of women swimmers will also be trained
and they will have to undergo the same
rigid routine as the men.

BILL JOHNSTON ASKED
IN HAWAIIAN TENNIS
American Champion Likely to
Accept Bid for Honolulu
Tourney

Hawaii has invited William NJ. John
ston, the American tennis champion,
and Roland Roberts, another Califor-
nian, who ranks nationally in the first
ten, to compete in the championships
at Honolulu during the first week in
April. The Hawaiian Tennis Associ-
alton has applied for that date to the
United States Lawn Tennis Associa-
tion and the application will be grant
I'd at once. AS the date does not con
fiict with any other tennis tournament
of importance, both Johnston and Rob
ertS are expected to accept.
The championship this year will be
part of the centennial celebration of
the Hawaiian mission. 1t is just 100
years since American missionaries made
their first pilgrimage to the islands
in the Pacific. Tennis has become very
popular in Hawaii within recent years
and tho association in charge of the
sport is anxious to make the Occasion
a memorable one by having the lead =
ing tennis players in America on the
scene. If Johnston accepts it will be
the first time. in tennis history that a
national champion has played in Hono-
lulu.

day to appear against Dartmouth. at
Hanover. in an intercollegiate League
game.
The Green's cage record is the same
as Penn's in reverse English. The Red

won none and lost three. The Quakers
are odds-o on favorites. and it would not
be surprising if a large score were
piled up.

toring Dartmouth this year. but is nan :
