Safety Car had nothing to spare IT their game with Connecticut Light & Power as the score, 4-3, in their favor indicates. They got away to fine start and had a three run lead In the first inning and this early accumula- ton of runs saved the day. Raff1le the first man to face Michigan, hit safely as did Morrissey, who followed him, and when Ross fumbled Cassel- las bunt, the bases were full Krall singled and scored the first two bat ters, but was himself out at second following a play on Cassella at third Galligan came through with the fourth hit of the inning, but after Gaigan attempting to make second. Weston flied out to the catcher and the inning was over.
 In the visitors third inning Shee- hey singled off Lynch "a hard drive by Morrissey, and not another hit was credited to them until the sixth inning when Fuhrer singled. Both these runners were left on bases and 1t looked as If am easy win for Safe ty was on the books, more so as they added another run to their total in their half of the sixth. The seventh inning, however, saw the Waterbury team it's real self. Ross, first man up, flied out to Knipping, but Laurencelle hit safely and Gaigan scored him with a two bagger. Michigan went out Weston to Morrissey and Mullin made the third out with a fly to Cas- sella. The visitors started off again in the eighth, and for while it looked as if some team other than Safety Car would figure in the finals. Sheehy, first man up, fouled out to Knipping, but McMahon reached first on clean hit A fe1der's choice went astray and Fuhrer landed on first, advancing McMahon. Darlington coaxed walk out of Lynch and the Ross hit into short left field and an around the field, while the second and third runs for the visitors went over the plate With two on and one out it looked as if Waterbury would come through, but Lynch struck out Laurencelle and Gaigan hit to Raf- file for a force play at third. New Haven in their half succeeded in get ting a man on, Krall getting his third hit of the day, but no runs resulted. In the ninth Verzier batting for Mich igan, poled out long fly to Cassella, which he succeeded in getting under for the first out. Mullen hit a hard one to Galligan and a close play at first was decided against the runner, and Lynch wound up the game by striking out Sheehey.
 There was little to choose between the teams, both played brilliant ball and Waterbury had one bad break against them. McMahon in the sixth
