The date for the conservation was
s., -. weeks ago, and since that
time arrangements have been going
forward for the impressive cere.
monial that will mark DR.. Freeman's
elevation.
The greatest problem confronting
the standing committee of the Wash.

the Washington National Cathedral,
in whose names invitations today
were issued, has been the matter Of
seating the many who would witness
the affair.
While Epiphany is said to be the
most capacious Episcopal church in
the city, it will be sorely taxed to
accommodate those who desire to be
present at the conservation.

 Two events were concluded before the rain, the second division of the 2.1S trot, won by Busy Hall, In slow time, and the 2.o9 pace, which Wrack took in straight heats, Dick McMahon thus winning his first race of the year.

Manager McGraw by turning in a victory over Pittsburgh not only helped his own position but aided an old friend. Pat Moran, whose Reds defeated the lowly Phillies. The re- suit brought Moran's team within one game of the second place Pirates.
 Dutch" Henry, a southpaw who was not good enough for other major league clubs. pitched his second game for Brooklyn scoring to vic- tory over the Chicago Cubs.
 College Star Shines.
 In Boston the St. Louis Cards sent John Stuart. former Ohio state uni versity pitcher against the Braves. He toyed with President Mattys team in the first game of a double header holding the Boston boys to three hits. The Cardinals won handily, II to 1. and then Stuart went back in the second game and, although hit more freely, the Cards won, to 8.
 The participation of the New York Tanks in the next world series came a little closer to being more than conjecture when the Hugmen cap tured g. to 2 pitching duel from the Chicago White Sox.
 Cleveland Holds Up.
 Cleveland, present runner-up to the Tanks, maintained its position by de- feating Connie Mack's rejuvenated Athletics, 4 to 8.
 Washington continued it's poor playing, and fell an easy victim to the St. Louis Browns by score of g to l. The Red Sox and Detroit were obliged by rain to make it holiday.

TENDLER IS CONFIDENT
 HE CAN DEFEAT LEONARD
Lefty Lew Has No Fear in Heart for Champion Benny
 Leouard.

Philadelphia, July 11.-Lefty Lew Tendler about to start training in his nearby Jersey Camp, for his fight with Benny Leonard, is more cheerful than ever about his prospects after seeing Leonard box Alex Hart eight rounds in Philadelphia.
 Tender, when he fought Leonard in Jersey City a year ago, was talked out of victory when he had Leonard gasping from left smash to the body in the eighth round. He left the ring with no fear of the champion and what he saw in the Leonard Hart fight made him even more confident.
 In the Hart bout, Leonard may have been saving his knuckles for the big match in New York at the end of the month, but it seemed more likely to Tender that his old punch was gone. Hart went the eight rounds easily.

Secretary Frank Mullen of the New Britain City Baseball league has com piled a list of the leading h'tters or the league. taking for these averages only those players who have played two full games and who are hitting for 400 or better. Many of the play CTS whose names are not mentioned, are seeking the ball well and have averages of 300 or better. To date, the averages, as compiled by Secre- tary Mullen, shows Beagle, High school star and first baseman with the Pirates. as hitting at the top of the league for 1925.

Wilbur Robinson is fair, fat, be- yond 40 and an optimist.
 He has offered the first bit of en- commencement for an interesting pen nant race in the National league by announcing openly that the Giants, al- though getting away to a big lead and carting around the distinguished title as world champions for two success sive years, have not deposited the 1923 championship in John A. Heydlers vault at this early date.
 The manager of the Brooklyn Su- perbas says that he has seen too many upsets during his many years of experience to talk about wilting in a pennant race at this time of the season.
 He points to the spurt of his own club, which at the end of two weeks play in the spring, was dragging its feet down at the bottom with a rec ord of 12 defeats and only four vic- tories.
 That team, however, was minor league edition. By shifting here and LHefe, Dy ScIJlns JdCQucS TouIliel to report, the Superbas put on spurt of their own that raised them as high as third place.
 Predicts Hard Race
 And when you're up there," speaks Smilin' Wilber, don't let anybody count you out.
 I'm not saying that the Superbas are going to win the pennant. But I'm not admitting that the Giants are going to walk off with the flag this year.

TRADE SCHOOL BOYS
 TO PLAY TOMORROW
South Manchester to Be Opp0.
 nentS at Walnut Hill

All the roads of Sportdom should lead to Walnut Hill park tomorrow | afternoon. The local trade school nine crosses bats with South Man. chester Trade school and all advance dope indicates battle royal. A short time ago the local apprentices | journeyed to Mount Nebo and hand ed the Silk City apprentices their l first defeat of the season. Since tha, time the lads from the Silk City have had but one thought morning noon and night-to turn the tables on the locals. Not only did the locals break South Manchester's record of II straight wins but they applied a very neat coat of whitewash and in- 1 cidentally went into first place of the northern section of the Vocational School league. The game was re- | corded as one of the best ever played in South Manchester, not excepting semi-pro and high school games. A total of five hits for both teams with the pitchers flaming 16 and walking but four gives an idea of the brand of the national pastime displayed. The game tomorrow afternoon should be better, if possible, as both teams have been putting in extra hard prac- tice sessions. Additional coaches have volunteered their services to the local team to help tune up for this impor- tant game. The locals by winning will clinch the title of the northern division and they are going to fight tooth and nail for the victory. It is probable that Andeen, who subdued the silk City team so thoroughly on its own battle ground, will again shoulder the pitching burden. The local slabster is having one of the best seasons of his career which is saying lot. In five games he has allowed but 20 hits and famed 34. Red" Miller will be behind the plate as usual. The Silk City lads learned, much to their sorrow, in the last game the power of Reds right arm and as a result will not take many chances in the pilfering line. The rest of the lineup will remain the same and the locals will probably step to the plate in this order: E. Anderson, 2b; Fusari, Sb; Herold of; Miller, c; Anderson 1b; Andeen p; Kulikowski, ss; Vance, If; and Vettorello, If. Mike" Lynch will say what's what so the fans are assured that the game won't drag. South Manchester expects to bring a large delegation but the local student body figure they can out-cheer the visitors as well as outplay them. The first averages given out find the locals hitting for .265 and fielding for .859 and scoring 77 runs to their oppo- nent's 26.
 Below are the averages of those playing over three games:

 Kulikowski .............. .455

1 separated the Cubs, who were sixth, from the Pirates, who were second.
 When you get five clubs pound- have something to worry about each day.
 When you start worrying you start losing. Having been through the exper- fence of winning pennant I know the feeling that exists when you drop those tough extra-inning games and the fellow in second place Is right at your heels.
 Doubts Giants Pitching
 Don't be surprised if McGraw find himself hard up for pitchers. He has a Unbalanced club. the best in- field that has been in the league for years, but the Pirates, Reds. Cubs, Cardinals and my own team are going to put up stubborn fight down to the line game.
 Past regulations don't count in this profession. I may not have a team filled with alleged stars but the boys are hustling right with me. T had to fill HI Myers place in center and put Bernie Neis there. I have a new first baseman in Four nier. I have a recruit in McCarren at third base. Andy High, a third baseman last year is at short and Jimmy Johnston. originally an out fielder, later a third baseman, is at second base. It's a hustling club that will make trouble"
 One big secret of Robinson's suc- cess is not fretting about defeats in the club house. The spirit of good fellowship prevails on the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Bobby, good-natured, is just "one of the boys"
