Walsh's Splitter
 May Cost Job

Waterbury, July 23-The status of Pitcher Marty Walsh of the BFaSScoS is also to be decided by Manager CosgrOVe today. PreSi- dent O'Nei1 claims that Walsh cannot throw the spitbaiI as he was not officially registered at the beginning of the season. As a matter of fact, however, Walsh signed a 1921 contract at Bridge port and then voluntarily retired. As D voluntarily retired player he comes under new standing.
 Walsh is of no use without the SpitbaH and if President O'Neil refuses to allow him to employ it. it will mean that the singing pitcher will have to go back warb- ling for records again
