M0oers, Former Skeeter 2nd Stacker;
 Coming Here With Splendid Record

Now, bo. for the sIat stuff.. Pipe his performances with the bludgeon, as follows:
 AB R. H. TB. ob. Sb. HR. 546 So 155 195 19 g i
 Add to these figures B sacrifice hits and 19 stolen bases, and the boy looks like a nift player, if averages are any criterion.
 Mooers is expected to arrive today or tomorrow from his home in Rich nond.
 Hard Weekend Schedule.
 McCann is anxious for another stretch of balmy weather and the in dications this morning were that he will get it.. The Brown Derbies are facing two hard contests for the week end, Pat Donovan's Jersey City Skeet- CTS being billed here Saturday after noon, with George Tecumseh StaH ings and his Rochester International Braves here on Sunday afternoon. In the Rochester lineup will be seen Fred Merkle, for Giant and Cub first base men.
 A coincidence ss of the weekend schedule is that Mooers will be seen in action against his pals of last year. the Skeeters. while first baseman Rodriguez will be playing against his team of last season, Rochester.

Says Harris
 Bested Hall

Even with Lou BoSash in his cor ner Joe Hall could not slave off de feat at the hands of Battling Harris in their Waterbury bout A Water bury press version of the bout fol lows:
 Battling Harris outpointed "Joe'' Hall of Bridgeport in the semi-fmal but he made a mis- take which nearly cost him the - battle. In the first and second rounds he had Hall practically out The Bridgeporter was hang ing on the ropes and Lou Bo- Sash who was in his corner, grabbed the towel ready to throw it into the ring. Harris didn't follow up his advantage, per miting Hall to stay for some reason or other. Then the lat ter proceeded to get stronger as the fight proceeded and near the end was going high. Harris deserved the decision, but he ought to have learned a les son 10 follow up a man in the future when he has him weak.

tP1I be all set when Mooers gets here,'' said Manager Gene McCann today" said Manager Gene McCann ball tossers out on the Newfield Park diamond after a days layof, due to the grouch of the weather king, yes Terday. ''Pn then have sufficient players from which to pick a team that will be able to cope against any of the other Eastern League combin- atfons," he added.
 Mooers is the prospective second sacker of the Brown Derbies, McCann expecting him to be the handspring of the Bridgeport infieId machine.
 Last season Mooers played with the Jersey City Internationals. and the official figures in Reach's baseball guide confer a creditable record upon him.

 Mooers batted at a .2s4 clip in 142 games, and is credited with playing 59 games at second base, 59 games at

Bud Weafer, the Norwalk, kayo specialist. and Jimmy McAleer. the Jersey City "cycione',, will have to go more than four rounds to decide who is the better boxer. This was demonstrated at the Columbia. A. c. smoker last night when the men boxed to a good draw. The house appeared to be with McAIeer and hissed the decision of Referee Fred Bosse, but Bosse was correct.
 McA1eers peculiar style of boxing somewhat baffled Weafer but the blows landed by the Norwalker were the awkwardness of the Jerseyman that saved him, as in the fourth round Weafer landed a hard waIop on his opponents chest which sent McAleer back on his heels.
 Both boxers indulged in plenty of wild rushes and slams during the go, but no damage ensued. McAleer started to rush matters in the first throughout. but Weafer's defence was impresnable. The big majority of wild swings by the Jerseyman were successfully blocked by Weafer.
 Iuby and Allen to Repeat.
 Really. the best bout of the even ing was between Young Luby and Tommy Allen a former Newarlzer. but now a native. The boys mixed it up at lively clip all the way much to the delight of the rinGsid CTS and Referee Bosse at the end of hos ti1it:es announced a draw. This de- cision also drew misses Allen proved to be a fast boy with plenty of speed with 8 good assortment of wa1lops, boxing somewhat on the style of Johnny Curtin who defeated Young OLeary here recently.
 Iuby also exhibited a lot of clev- erness by avoiding many of Aliens well aimed blows. Announcer Jack McGee announced then the boys may appear as the hea6hners in an all star bout at the club in the near fu- ture, if the efforts of Matchn1a ker Billy Ma son are successful.
 The real slugfest of the evening was furnished by Spike Sullivan and George Chip, the former weighing i57. and Chip 150. It was action all of the way. In the first round Clip landed some hard blows and only the bell saved Sullivan. After the stren- uous mill the referee awarded Chip the decision.

HILLTOPPERS OPEN SEASON TOMORROW

Shea on the sick list and Whelan playing superb ball at short, 1t is the concensus of opinion that the star will be in that place throughout the season.
 Vince Cooney will be stationed at the keystone plate. Cooney is re- cruit and has been showing the best of form of late. His batting is on par with any other varsity man.
 The outfeld is still a mystery, eN- ccpt that Dick Weldon is sure of one of the side gardens. The other candidates for these berths are Bob Flynn, Glazer and Ryan Captain Maher, whose arm Is still causins him trouble, will probably be chosen for center field.
 The Hilltoppers are slated to play Taft at Watertown Saturday
