To Organize Eastern Conn. Ball League

An endeavor to organize a baseball league in Eastern C"unecticut for the coming baseball season is to be made to- night when representatives from six towns in eastern Connecticut will meet at Taftville to discuss the situation and to make plans for a league. The sponsors for this league are the members of the TaftYilIe Athletic association who realize that much interest can be derived from keen competition in the baseball field.
 At the meeting tonight will be repre- sented Jewett City, Danielson. Plainfeld, Willimantic. New London and Daftvillc. There has been more or less rivalry be- tween all these towns and when they ran independent teams the series btween each city was very bitterly contested There has been plans afoot for some time and after toniEnt's meeting it is hoped that 9 league will be established.

BILLIARD CHAMPION IS
 ARDENT DEVOTE OF GOLF

Chicago, April 5 (By the Associated Press)-To tine average person, it is a long way from the golf green to the billiard table, but Young Jake" Schae- fer, champion of the world at 1892 balkline billiards, finds them almost the same and ascribes much of his , success of the green cloth of the bill Hard table to constant effort on the greens of the outdoor game. Jake is virtually the only billiard star in the world who had used golf to improve his work with the worries, but his title as best in the world at the indoor sport and his brilliant play | in the recent championship match with Willie Hoppe, for which he trained almost entirely with golf play Indoor iland outdoor support the champions contentious that one game helps the other
 Schaefer has been golfer for some time and is a familiar figure on the links where his long angular sweep down and up in a follow through that is as graceful as his delicate nursing of the worries in the sport at which he makes his living. He maintains that the use of the wooden and iron clubs improve his long game at billiards and that the short golf game-putting and pitching-is help full to his short cushion work, nurse and masse shots.
 My father started me at billiards
 when I was barely able to handle a
 cue" Jake said recently, "and the
 chief advice given me by billiard play
 CTS ever since has been to protect my
 hands by staying away from all out
 door sports in which the hands are
 used.
 When I took up golf, most of the
 ivory pushers shook their heads and
 muttered: There goes a fine billiard
 player running his chance because he
 can't keep from being a kid l didn't
 argue with them, but I stuck to my
 golf, for I was sure that golf not on- Iy would not hurt my billiards work ! but would improve it.
 "A billiard player must have ex-
 tremely supple wrists and fingers ano free working shoulder joints. The long swing-the follow w-through-used
 in driving and in iron work was just the thing, I found, to keep my should CT joints working nicely.
 l "This part of my golf game aIsC helped keep my elbows free and ; greatest of all, perhaps-it gave me } splendid waist exercise the twist ot
 the body in the follow through beine just the thing to enable me to twis 5 my body over billiard table in get , ting at shots hard to reach. Short approaching and putting gav' me wrist exercise and improved m!
 sense of touch and control of tht wrist muscles used in the short nurs
 ing shots of balkline billiards. I'm bet
 ter at putting than at any other brancl s of golf and my short billiard gam has improved since I made a stead,
 diet of putting.
 "The only danger to the billiardis 0 in golf is that his fingers might st.f l. fen little or become calloused throug swinging the golf club. Mine neve y have been affected that way and y don't think that there is much dan n ger of it if one is careful to handl l. the golf club with the same care h = strokes his billiard cue.'
