KricheH Dug Up" Ray Grimes


 Ray Grimes, former Bridgeport first sacker and now guardian of the in itia1 base for the Chicago Cubs, who is Rogers Hornsby's closest rival for National League batting honors. played his first professional game un- der Manager Paul Kricheu of Bridge port in. 1918.
 Kriche1l, who is now scouting for the New York Americans, was here a couple days this week. It gives Paul great satisfaction to see his protege playing such great ball. Krichen was tipped off to Grimes when he was playing semf-pro around Minerva, O., and brought him east in 1918, and helped develop him.
 DO you know said Krichel1, "it was the hardest job in the world to sell Grimes to the. majors. He was so awkward at bat and in the. field that they couldn't see any promise in him. He showed lem though for when he got into a uniform he stayed there and has been there since."
 Grimes play around the first bag has improved correspondingly with his batting.

Clark T. Lane, Jr, president of the Bridgeport Club, was at the meeting and all of the clubs were represented. The sale of the club at Mack's figures of SS,00o was unanimous.
 Flynn To~Get New Players
 William Earnshaw, PowelIs busi- ness manager, represented the new owner at the meeting He said the club would be strengthened and money turned over to Flynn to pro- cure new players. A lease has been rest of the season, with an option of secured on Boulevard Park for the e three years lease, starting next Spring.
 The Worcester franchise was moved to F'itchburg in the spring, when 8 group of Worcester men obtained con trol of Boulevard Park. According to Mack. he made tempting offers both for the rental of the park and an out right purchase, but the syndicate wanted too much. He refused to meet their demands and moved on to Fitch burg.
 s4. The F'itchburg transfer has proven c Azzle. Not only has the attendance been meager, but the jump to Fitch burg added travelling expenses.
 Providence Next Year.
 1t was rumored at the meeting that the Worcester club would operate at Boulevard Park this year and that it would be moved to providence next spring with Eddie Eayrs, New Haven's clever center fielder, as the manager. Worcester would remain In the league, however. as 1t was said that the present season might be the last for Albany and the New York State capitals franchise would be trans ferred to Mack's home town next year.
 George M Weiss, president of the New Haven club, ernpnaLIcally stated that he was, not interested in the deal by whicA Worcester gets a team again, in any way beyond the fact that he wanted MT, Poweu to enter Baseball, MT. Powell is a personal friend of Weiss and a stockholder in the New Haven club. He will have to dispose of his New Giaven stock at once.
 Lane Denies Sale.
 Clark Lane branded false stories in circulation that the American Chain A. A., holders of the local franchise, was anxious to sell out.

DELANEY-RATNER
 BOUT IN AUGUST

Pipes are being laid by the Bridge port Athletic & Amusement Co.,, for a return bout between Jack Delaney and Aug:e Rather in the latter part of August, The A. & A. moguls held a confab yesterday afternoon but did not consummate any definite arrangements.
 If the. bout is staged. 1t will no doubt draw one of the biggest gates in the history of Bridgeport for a pugilistic event. Delaney is one cf the best middleweight prospects un- earthed in years, and was climbing the fistic ladder at fast gait when he sustained an injury to his hand which necessftated a layoff of several months.
 What makes this match all the more important is the fact that Rat ner knocked out Delaney in one round in New York, the first defeat Delaney has suffered during his career.

 H. R. Mark
By Tad

In making his 27th home run against the Giants, yesterday, Rogers Hornsby, of the Cardss tied the National League home run record posted way back in 1884, when he starred on the fa- nous Chicago White Stockings. The ball was lifted into the left field stand and was HoInsby'S eiehty-fourth circuit drive during his major league career.
 Hornsby is popular with his fellow ball players and the Giants displayed true sportsman ship when they congratulated the Cards Slusger on the achieve ment.

HILLIES HERE IN 2
 GAMES, TOMORROW

After winning two games in a
 row the Derbies scored their sec
 ond straight loss at Springfield,
 to 2, so a grand bust is due at
 Springfield today or at Newfield
 Park, tomorrow, where the Hill

 McCannisters in two tilts. The
 speed of the Derbies appear to
 be to get one game out of every
 three or four. So, cheery up. A
 victory is about due.

 Springfield Impressions
 Shanty House, former Springfield college athlete. will be at Texas A. & M. College next year helping coach to pitch one of the games in the doubleheheader this afternoon.
 Rodriguez was injured and unable to play at first. Gene McCann says it is the first game the Cuban has missed in two seasons.
 Herrara has been busy boy at third. Yesterday he took nine chances around the base.
 Talk is a fine ball player" is the way Gene McCann sizes up his new outfielder from the wilds of Texas Better than his name in the big league,' adds Gene with a sly twinkle in his eye.
 Ffed1er's name is said to be pro nounced as fiddler" In many places on the Eastern League circuit he is known as Fielder. Joe Smith used his catchers mitt at first and the plunk of the throws to him reSounded.

North End ball rans are set for their baseball feast tomorrow after music will be furnished by the rival teams of that neighborho ood-the Shamrocks and the Lenox A. c. boys Partisans of both teams are backing will surely be battle for blood and sh hould prove one of the most thrill ing battles of the season in the anna teur ranks.
 Newfield Park will also put on
 double extravaganza with
 Gabby Gus GardelIa and his
 champion HillieS. I'IrtsfIeId has
 always been a turing card and a
 bupmper crowd is the expecta-
 tiOnS.
 There's hardly an instance. if any, where a ball player has waited until he is 33 years old to break into the Big Show. A majority of players make their exit from the major or ganization before that age.
 But. such is not true in the
 case of Pitcher Rettig, who re-
 gently joined the Athletics. Ret
 tig, rated as an eccentric Jersey
 Semi-pro pitcher, hIt PhiIadeI-
 phia the other day and went to
 Connie Mack for a trial. He was
 given a chance to work because
 he made it understood he would
 not be bench warmer. Rettig worked against the White Sox, and he handed the veteran Mack the surprise of the batters long career in baseball by shutting out the Eonliskey outfit by a to score. The astute Connie was quick to see that the raHv-boned and Ianky sandlotter had "something,'' and signed him to a contract. Sur prise No. was dIshed up to Connie by Rettig on Thursday l when he held Cleveland, with though the Athletics were shut l out, ? to 0.
 l Watch this fellow. Rettig. It's a rare case in baseball history, a. fellow | making his major league debut at 33. 1 Now, get ready for a Rather Delaney go. Connie Lewis and l George Dwyer are oiIing up the machinery.
 It seems that the &eonard-Tend1er Tight boiled doown to few words was 1 while Lew outpummel1ed Benny 1 The Brown DerpieS are mo- where near the pennant, but Elm i merich is the leading run getter and Irving is setting the pace for extra base hitters. So, be thank full.
 Fitchburg fans should be mighty glad they are out of the league after l the raw deal dealt them.
