 battle Belmost was again the win
 ming pitcher, and although he allowed
 one more hit than Mcclure gave the Isocked the ball harder. Keleher
 skyed one over the West Rock tree ltops for homer, Shields connected
 with a 3 bagger and Rusincski and lScalese collected 3 doubles between
 them Mcclure led the losers hitting
 list with 3 singles while Anderson
 besides doing some good fielding, got
 a double and single as his portion
 of his teams 9 hits. Deitle did some fine fielding amid the trees in right
 field while other fine plays by the
 winners included a one handed catch by Scaese of line drive off the bat of Hill, the Telephones dusky catcher who when he does connect hits them hard.
 ! Tommy Murphy after going along nicely in the Seamless-Sargent game for 5 innings, retired long enough to have Bubenciek allow 5 hits in 3 Iinnings and lose the game. Two n- field errors and dropped ny and a first run which Seamless in the next inning evened up when Velardy hit safe, advanced on a passed ball and scored when Murphy came thr ough with his third hit of the game. Mur- phy again. took up the pitching bur den in the eighth, and Jeff the first man up walked, advanced on Bran tnigan's sacrifice, and scored what lproved to be the winning run when Baguano hit safely. Spalice pitched one of his best games, Keeping his hits scattered and striking out 10. ! Sperry & Barnes for the third time this season were forced to skin hams or some similar useful occupations l instead of playing their scheduled game, with the result that they lost another game by forfeit.
 Geometric Tool had to sacrifice their good standing in the league when several of their players hied themselves to Momauguin to the sheep roast.
 The laying off of several players from the Marlin plant caused Man ager Sackett to withdraw from the take over their assets and liabilities. l Peck Bros although they did not play last week, put up an awful howl when their resignation was requested and will continue in the league, Man ager Manning promising to have a representative team out each week l thereafter.
 The inter-city Industrial series is being negotiated, with Charles Ma honey of the Bridgeport Herald rep resenting Bridgeport, Mir. F. Fox, who although a New Haven resident, will take care of Hartford's affairs, and Bob Coutts will act for New Ha- ven. Springheld's representative has not been announced yet, but he wants to have good baseball knowledge to be on par with the other trio.
 While waiting for the Winchester Mersick game to happen we saw few innings of the Bridgeport Fire Department and the New Haven Po- lice game, and saw one player per form who still has the style and grace of big 1eaguer. Few recog- nized him as Al O'Dell once promin- ent in the old Tri-State league, where as a punishment for jumping to, when the Tri-State was out of or ganized ball, he was kept for the rest of his baseball career. That he can still hit, he demonstrated Saturday and his only opportunity to steal sec ond was accomplished by fade away slide, which he was always master of, when the baseman had him out by six feet.
 For the third time this season we have seen an umpire miss calling an infleld fly, and each time never peep out of the players or managers. Most Hillhouse players and specta- tors will recall Cremins and Shea of Bridgeport High on account of the spectacular playing in the inter-scho- now playing with the Sokol-Rosebud team in the Park City, and doing we'll. They were opposed to the old team mate Lavery who is pitching for the K. of C. and each nicked him for l a hit in a recent game.
 Art O'Connell, the old Highwood boy, is no longer catching for Dan bury, but if his Bridgeport Industrial record is anything to go by, it is their sad loss. He leads the Park City league in hitting with fine average of .586 and has scored Y runs. l Al Bakos, Danbury's regular box man of last season, is now pitching
 for the Sokol Rosebuds of Bridge bort.
 This Schaatz team of Poughkeepsie,
 which is to locate in Milford, is a real
 ball team, and many of it's players
 are we'll known around this district.
