 On "WiZd BiIL''

When ''Wild Bill Donovan of New Haven was managing the New York Yankees he became enraged one afternoon over the remark of a fan who sat well back in the stands. This man, a husky looking fellow, kept pann- ing the Yankees and finally Don- ovan could stand it no longer without an expression of some sort.
 He hustled off the bench and went across the field opposite the spot where the fan sat. Making 8 megaphone out of his hands, he yelled out. 'Any more of that kind of talk out you go."
 Say. if you try that, you're liable to wake up some morning and find somebody has placed a lily in your hands, the fan shouted back.
 Later on Donovan learned the fan was none other than Jack McAuIiffe, an old time scraper of high repute.

Richard Clancy, 2O5 Main street sends the following contribution:
 "Wi1 you please answer the question of the majority of BridgepOrt's younger generation, ''Why are the horsegateS in left field never opened in the eight or ninth fnning,'' They used to let us in for probably two innings but now they've done away with it entirely. Is the ball club afraid they will lose something by this action? I am afraid they will be- cause as it is accepted that the boys of today are the fans of to- morrow it won't be a very sweet feeling that will be carried by the boys of the present. Loosen up.
