entitled to the best team he could mobilize, and in that way he appeared correct.
 But the welfare of the other seven clubs had to be taken into consider tion. So, when the Baltimore club disbands this season, 1t will go down one of the greatest minor league teams in baseball history.
 New Haven has also been touted as being fast enough for a league of a higher classification due to the array of stars corralled by George Weiss for this seasons team. This mooted Ques- ton, however, will be settled in the President George Weiss will have three first caliber pitchers to pit against the Orioles in Woodward. Cooney and Stryker. Local sports who wager bit of dough" occasion ally on games are going to plunge on the Donovan outfit when Woodward goes into the box to pitch and that may be on Monday, date of the first game.
 Weiss is making special prepaxa. tions for visiting baseball writers at the games. Room No. 136 will be the headquarters of the writers.

ATTENDANCE SLUMP JOLTS
 ALL EASTERN LEAGUE CLUBS

Bridg geport is not the only Eastern League club that has been Init hard Financially by the slump in attend ance' this season.
 Several cities xare finishing very much on the rocks and radical changes are slated for 1923.
 The entire upper end of the loop has been hit hard, meaning Albany. Pittsfield and Worcester.
 Owner Hawkins of Albany after experiencing tw otougth years, has cor1e to a, realization of the fact that the baseball profession as a business Is a good way to get rid of your money. He is said to be ready to step down and out and if he does it is not likely Albany will be back in the league in 1923.
 Even New Haven and Waterbury the pennant winner and runner up have had tough sledding. Both had high priced ball clubs which ate up a1l the profits that would have ordiS narily been made The crowds in both cities were very good and the

CONGRESS SCHOOL WILL HAVE OWN
 ATHLETIC ASS0.
By Tad

A very radical change bas come about in the Bridgeport High school athletic system. The building across the street from the main High school,
 formerly known as High School An nex, is going to have an athletic ~as- sociation entirely of it's own and ath- letic teams will be organized inde- pendently from those in the main building.
 Harry Lyons, graduate of Shelton Grammar school and Springfield col iege. has been appointed as coach of the school, by Harry c. Went, direc- tor of public school athletics. The athletic association will be formed this week and an executive ommittee will be elected. That means that under class men will be lost to the maip high school.

New Haven, Sept. 21-The Yale football team returned to the bowl for the first time this fall yesterday, when they fought against the scrubs, who were using forward passes in an effort to score. A new drainage sys- tenn has been installed, and the bowl is in excellent condition for the com ing season.

N. HAvEN-BAL LTIMORE INTER-LEACUE| SERIES CREATES MUCH SPECULATION AMONG BRIDGEPORT BASEBALL FANS

What sort of a showing will the
 New Haven baseball team make
 against the Baltimore Orioles,
 four times champions of the In-
 ternational League, and regarded as the strongest combination to-
 day outside of the major leagues?
 Bridgeport ball fans are asking
 the question which will be solved
 in the three game series that will
 open at Weiss Park next Monday.
 Because of the extraordinary cali Der of the Baltimore team four of this years players will be seen in the ma 5ors next season. Jack Dunn has been forced to this action because all of the other teams in the International are outmatched in playing strength o1 the Orioles. For the last four years the pennant league in that race has been very one-sided and the other clubs gave Dunn the choice of dis posing of some of his stars or re- turn to the old drafting rule.
 Dunn Forced to Disarm.
 Until this drastic action was taken in mid-season Dunn had firmly re- fused to sell any of his stars. He maintained that Baltimore fans were

RETURN SHUGRUE
 AND KAPLAN 60
 IN THE "WORkS"

Another Shugrue and a.plan fight being smoked up," according t boxing dope. Here's wha he sports editor of The Democra ooks upon a return bout.
 They can deny it, protest 1t and even detest it if they want to but a return bout between Shugrue and Kaplan is inevitable.
 The sports editor of the Meri- den Journal thinks it's foolish Tes'' to talk about it but if there's anything foolish about $2,S0o purse then Shugrue and Kapfan have missed the business instinct of the game.
 Either boxer will sling mitts many a day before he'll collect 8 piece of change like that again.
 Hartford, Waterbury or New Haven are willing to stage 8 Shugrue-Kaplan bout at "a min ute's notice but the promoters are Sparring for time and the 'smokeup" that will be necessary to put the bout across.
 Here's what our Meriden con temp says:
 s We can Sc no reason why the two should meet again in the near Z future. aplain is featherweight or junior lightweight, Shugrue IS a lightweight and we doubt if he can go beneath the 132 mark and be in condition, to fight What ever glory comes from beating - Shugrue, Kaplan has received and we can see no logical reason for a, second bout. In fact every indication would point to a greater, and more decisive win for Kaplan in second bout than in his first. He only too plainly out classes the Shugrue boy

RED SOX-ROCK
 BASEBALL SERIES
 TO OPEN SUNDAY

The Black Rocks and the Red Sox are expected to start the first of a three game series Sunday at Seaside Park. Both teams have the right to play for the city title as they have defeated every fast team in the city. The Rocks are favored to defeat the Sox because of their two crack hurl- CTS, Otto Herb and ''S1ats'' Gallagher, who are considered to have the edge on the Red Sox moundsman of Tom Frank. The Rocks combination of Herb and Bailey is hard to defeat The only real hitter on the Red Sox team is Al Paige while the Black Herb Hart. Taking all these ad- vantages into consideration there is no reason why the Black Rocks shall not defeat the Red Sox and win the city semitpro title.

HORSE RACING BET RULING OF
 BIG INTEREST

Louisville, Ky. Sept 21-When an error is made in officially posting the winner of horse race and bettor tears up his ticket on that animal before the error is q;ectifed, he is entitled to receive the amount his pasteboard called for, even though the pieces had been assembled and casned by another.
 This was a ruling of Judge Thom- as R. Gordon, deciding that such a mistake was negligence on the part of the Kentucky Jockey club which was on file today in Circuit court R. E.. Henderson, the bettor, was awarded judgment for s175.5O, which repre- -sented the amount $10 straight ticket on Ring Rose paid in a race at Churchill Downs in the meeting last autumn. Henderson's petition stated that the number of another horse was posted first, whereupon he tore his ticket into bits and threw them away. When Ring Rose was posted as the winner. he was unable to- find the pieces, but immediately filed claim with the jockey c1up. Judge Gordon held this put the off, cials on tEer guard and the mutilat- cd ticket sapu1d not have been cash cd when presen nted by another

 Simpson Home Run Star.
 Walter Simpson also added to his circuit driving notriety by pasting the ball for another pair of homers bringing his total up to 19. Simpson is cocksure of the Eastern League H.
