An-New Britains Will Practice Thurs day Night to Prepare For St. James, Onslaught on Sabbath.

The New Britain football team will hold practice on Wednesday night At Odd Fellows hall, preparatory for the opening game of the season in this city next Sunday afternoon at Hoffman field, at 3 o'clock. Coach David L. Dunn is perfecting a num- Der of new plays which will be work ed against the St. James A. c. eleven of Bridgeport, in the opening game. All of the players are expected to be on hand at tonight's practice. Word comes from Bridgeport, that the St. James eleven, is one of the best that has ever represented the Park City club. Last season, the St. James boys sprung a surprise on the locals, giving Barnikow's men a warm engagement The acquisition of Hammil and Hunt IS well received by local football fam dom, and their work is expected to be of a stellar order. Both players have expressed themselves as well pleased with the opportunity of coming to this city and play under Coach Dunn and Captain Jimmy Connolly. Gleason Parker, Harry Ginsberg and Charles E. Mahoney, a Bridgeport sports writ CT, will handle the opening game as officials next Sunday.

 Little Change in Prices.
 The scale of prices at both local parks will be similar to that of last year at the Polo Grounds, where the entire series was contested. These prices are $6 for box seats, s5 pr reserved seats, $3 for general uny ye- served admission and $1 for bleach CTS. The scale that would prevail at Redland Field, in event Cincinnati uins, wili be determined later.
 The games will start at p. m., the same as last year, it was further decided. Commissioner Landis was understood to have favored starting them at 1;S0 p. m, to avoid as far as possible the necessity of calling extra inning games, such as the famous tie of last fall, but it was be- leved this time would be unsatisfac- tory, from the point of view of the fans.
 Those who attended yesterdays meeting besides Commissioner Lan- Gis and Col. Ruppert, included Ed ward R. Barrow, secretary and busi- ness manager of the Yankees; Charles A. Stoneham and J. J. Tierney, presi- dent and secretary, respectively of the Giants. The Cincinnati club was not represented.

New York, Sept 26.-The 1923 World Series will open on Wednes- day, Oct. 10, at the Yankee Stadium, home of the three-time American league champions and greatest base ball park in the country, regardless of whether the New York Giants or the Cincinnati Reds win the fight to represent the National league in the annual classic.
 Ruppert Wins Toss.
 This was decided yesterday at a Commissioner kenesaw M. Landis, when Col. Jacob Ruppert owner of the New York Yankees, won the toss to decide which league should have the honor of opening the series.
 That's good start, anyway" said Col. Ruppert afterward. Last year the Yankees lost the toss and also the series to their Gotham rivals.
 Should the Giants stand off the eleventh hour challenge of the Reds and capture the pennant. thus mak- ing the series an all-metropolitan af- fair for three successive years, the title games will alternate between the Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds, until one club wins the necessary majority of four contests.
 In the event that Cincinnati up- ets calculations and wins the flag by miracle" finish. the first two games will be played in the Yankee Stadium and the next two at Red

When speaking of the worth while pitchers of 1923 one cannot very well overlook Jimmy Ring of the Philadel- phia Nationals.
 Pitching on a seventh place ball club that has never been close to the 300 mark in the matter of victories, Ring has always been we'll above that figure.
 I believe it is conservative to say that if Ring was with either Pitts burgh or Cincinnati, and delivered the pitching that he has turned in for the Phillies, he would be leading the Ma tional League twirlers in games won.

AUTO OWNERS PAY TWICE SIM
SPENT OF ALL HIGHWAYS

In an address before the Invest
ment Bankers association upon the
subject of federal aid for public
highways. Secretary Wallace of the
Department of Agriculture states
that the federal tax collected on
automobiles, automobile accessories
and the use of passenger automobiles
for hire greatly exceed the expendi-
lures of the federal government fer
federal aid to public highways.
The first tax of this character was
imposed in 1917 as a war revenue
measure. Since the war it has been
modified. The present federal tax
( law imposes s per cent on the selling
( price of motor vehicles, tires and
accessories. excepting motor trucks
which are taxed three per cent. This
( tax brought the government a reve-
nue. of $1i0,000.000 for the fiscal year
ending June 80. 1923. and during
the same fiscal year the government
expended in federal aid highways
S72 100000. Since the tax was first
imposed in 1917. the government has
collected $3.50. 1000, 900 from sales of
motor vehicles. but has expended
only $265. 200 900 on public highway
construction. These figures show
that the owners and operators of
motor vehicles on the public high
ways are paying in federal taxes
more than double the entire federal
expenditure to construct and main
tain these highways.
