Naugatuck Golfer Wins
 In Bridgeport Tourney

CITY LEAGUE HAS
 TWO GOOD, TWO BAD
Fafnir-St. Mary'S and Falcon-ln-
 dependent Games Are CorkerS

In Saturdays City league games the Dragons won from the Cardinals 12 and o, the Pirates defeated the Rangers 10 to 1, the Falcons trouncet the Independents to in a close game, and the Fafnir nine trimmed St. Mary's to 5.
 Fafnirs ys. St. Mary's
 Errors combined with hits brought down defeat upon the heads of the St Mary's team. Steege pitched good ball and there were good plays by Steege and Kelly. Schade was the demon with the club, hitting triple and two singles. McCue also hit well getting three singles
 Falcons vs. Independents
 The on-Independents game won by the former, 9 to 8, was featured by four home runs and three triples. Stanley Budnick as usual starred at bat and in the field. Renehan, Will Hams, Kulis and Klatha also played nice game.
 Cardinals Vs. Dragons
 The Cardinals-Dragons game should not properly come within the classi- fication of baseball game, but lack ing a better term that would be oun- derstood and appreciated it can pass as that. In the first place, no regula- ton league umpire appeared on the scene. Umpire Artie Campbell was wording on No. 1 Diamond, but neither Red" Campbell nor Young, the other two umps, appeared, Finally Gerry" Crean, the former Kacey twirler. was pressed into service and officiated for this game as well as the Pirates Ranger game.
 In the second place, the Cardinals did not have their regular team on hand and some of the substtutions were horrible examples of what base ball playing should not be. A base ball uniform was the exception rather than the rule, in this game, and the alleged contest was simply batting practice for the Dragons, who collect ed dozen hits for 12 runs in the six innings played. Five hits off H. An derson was the best the Cards could do, and these were not worth a run. the final tune having been 12 to noth- ing in favor of the Dragons. About the only feature of the game, and this featured either bad judgment or ig- norance, occurred in the last inning when Cherpack, who had reached third and stood fair chance of SCOT ing, got caught mapping off the bag and then began the running him down between catcher and third baseman. Instead of trying to beat it out, he leaped into the air, blocked the ball and then said nothing when Umpire Crean promptly called him out.
 Pirates Vs. Rangers
 Inability of the Rangers to use judgment in the field was responsible in a large measure, for their defeat by the Pirates by the score of 10 to l. The Pirates probably would have won, but not by that score had the Rangers not gone wild in tossing the ball around the diamond and into the ad- jacent territory.
 Captain Matty Hayes, catcher for the Rangers, was knocked out of the
