Forsythe Dyeing Co.,, Eeam of New Haven at the Fair grounds Sunday by a close score of S to 5. The game was one that kept the crowd on edge during the whole nine innings and especially in the first of the ninth when the visitors, two runs in the rear, staged a rally and drove one run across and an error put another runner on base.
 The visitos proved to be the tough est team the Knights have yet met and was the first game where they had to show ability with the stick and a real fighting spirit. The show ing made Sunday proves that the Ka- ceys team is equal to any semi pro team in the state and that the boys have the punch at the right time. Um- pire Roy came in for more or less abuse by the fans who differed with him on many of his decisions.
