Years ago before the old Eastern association was merged with the New England League and the combination became the present Class \ Eastern League. tEe Eastern Association Con nccticut League was another name it bOre) was referred to as the Dinner Bucket Ieaeuc,, Jumps were so short that players left their home town in the morning, played the game ''aboard'' and returned at nicht to the home town. The clubs thus saved hotel bills and the ''dinner bucket" joke came from the fact that the player carried their lunches with them on these 'rOad trips"
 But the Eastern League. as now made up, has Ion@er jumps to make. They would not be considered long in the West, but in tight little New England they are quite momentous trips.

 After 1916, Reich was in great de- mand by Connecticut teams, and he played at various times with the Blue Ribbons, and the old Woosters, of Danbury- He was also a member of the Stamford team, when the Lock City was represented in the now de- funct Eastern Basketball league. Relch was probably one of the fast est men that ever graced a basket pail court, and was a great favorite in this city.

Old Sport s Say-So

Orsanizati Of Knot Hole Clubs is a bang-up tip for future business to Eastern League club owners
 That somebody with a heart is associated with the St Louis Ma tionaI League Baseball club is evil dent from it's custom of admitting boys free of charge to a section of the bleachers on certain days. IL is good business also.
 Encoura cement given to this so- called Knot Hole club will build up supporting sentiment for one of our most popular paStimes. The boys who today are admitted free to the bleachers will be the paying specta- tors tomorrow. They will reel a toy atty and enthusiasm for the home team which they would not feel had they been harried by the special po- lice who have a way of putting in an appearance and driving fellow from his own particular knot hole at critical stage of the game.
 St. Louis has always been an eN- cellent town for baseball. Back in the old days ComiskeY Bobby CarrT- thers, BuShons and La ham were con snicuous members of an almost un- beatable nine. St. Louis may not succeed in winning the pennant this year, though she has a strong az gregation with the great Horrsby as a star performer, but it is safe to say that every member of the Knot Hole Club will be a sincere rooter for Branch EickcY'S team.

Johnson Reminiscent.
 Sam McVey. colored heavyweight t who recently died in New York, was the hardest hitter of 'em all. in the opinion of Jack Johnson. "He pos sessed a wonderful lefthand wallop and he certainly puffed me with it. said "Lil Artha" last night while awaiting his turn at the Park theater- effries had the reputation of being a hard puncher, but he could not size up with McVey. why, he didn't land a hard blow on me in our fight at Reno" said Johnson.
 McVey and Johnson fought three 2O-round battles, Johnson winning the decision in the two fought in -9O3, while he knocked Sam out in the 2oth round of their third scrap. All three battles were fought in California.
 The toughest man Johnson ever fought according to Jack, was Hank Griffin. Twenty years ago, in Califor- mia, they clashed three times, result ing in IS and 20 round draws ,whlle Griffin got the decision in their final bout which went 20 rounds
 One of Johnsons memorable pat ties was with Stanley ketchell al Colma, CaIif, in 1902, whom he knocked out in 12 rounds Johnson and Ketchel were not on the best or terms before the fight, but. after the battle they became fast friends ana remained so until ketchell met ms untimeIy death.

 Billiard Champion at 70
 W hen does a billiard plaver be- come old?
 Or course it all depends upon the ptayer- There is Louis A Servatf,IS Tor example, who at something ahove seventy years of age is winning cham plonShlp titles in the tournaments of the National Association of AmaTsnr Billiard Players
 some of the followers of carroros shave been trying to figure that Willie Hoppe has passed the zenith Of his powers. The explanation of this view point is easy. Hoppe has been before the billiard loving public for many years. He began as a boy wonder in knickerb oclzers.
 Hoppe. however. is far from being old so far as billiards is concerned He was born at Cornwall on the Hud- son, N. Y. on OctobeE- II. 1887. That means that the former holder of the professional championship will be thirty-five years of age his next birth day.
