SSkkx51111511S11R11Ss111&&}} 2 Spe aking \ ! of Sports #| 4ta.1,.t.t,.s,,,,,,,s,t,,,,;. Attention Paddy O'Connor, man. ager of the Hartford Eastern league baseball team! The following &C., count of \ double-header between Wi)liamsport and Scranton of the New York-Penn league Is taken from | a Williamsport paper of the other day.
 In the first game played between Williamsport and Scranton which Williamsport won 12 to 2, Wojak, who Is playing at shortstop for the Williamsport club, was officially four | times at bat: he scored four runs and got three hits, He had one put out and one assist in the field.
 In the second game, he was at bat three times, scored two runs and | got two hits. He had three putouts and three assists In the field.
 He also figured In one double play during the second game.
 Here's some of the nice things the sports editor of the paper had to say | about him: "Wojak had three out of four hits at bat"
 ''Williamsporters who witnessed the game at Elmira Sunday said Wo1ak made one of the most spec taculsr plays ever seen on Dunn field. With two on base and two out, he raced over back of third | knocked down a hit and tossed the batter ont at first. It is said this undoubtedly saved the game for Williamsport." Tn the third inning of the second game, Wojak dropped Bedford's fly but by q quick toss tc killinger Jagged Bedford at second hase.'
 Thats tough playing for a man who wasn't in the Eastern league class and not fast enough to play on the Hartford team. It only goes to prove that when he gets chance at his regular position, he can play baseball with the best of them. He was not the Kaplsn that tore Danny Kramer to ribbons in Madison sousre Garden last January and he was not the fighter that he ts re- puted to be. His showing last nlsht was very poor. Now that the Kaplan- Herman fght is over, the next big event for the local sport fans is the Corbln Red soy- Falcon baseball game at St. Msrys field. This will be the second game of the elimination series to de termine which team will play the Kensington team for the city cham pionship. Players in the City league are talk ing about holding a banquet at the Hotel Rurritt after the season end5 tomorrow afternoon. Secretary Abe Aronson will call meeting of the managers to discuss the proposition some time next week. This appears to be g good move on the part Of the players who plan to have the win ming team there as guests. Aronson, who is manager of the Orioles, states that tonorro"'s s game will probably end the season for the team. The Orioles have had a good record this year for the second year they have been playing together. We hope to see the team hold for next year and strengthen the various de partments in which they are weak and they will give any team in the city rub for honors.
 Kensington will journey to- New London Sunday to play the ort Trumbull Stars there. PlaJors are asked to be at Macks Garage m kensington at 1l:20 o'clock daylight saving time Sunday morning pre- pared to leave for the Whaling City
 Manager Buckley notified ns that
 
 accommodate those who would Ike to take the trip. If there are any oth- er of the Kensns ston fans who wish to accompany the team and spend mart of the day al the shore, they are asked to call Frank Pierpont at I45b-l2 and notify him that they arc going so that arrangements can he made for them. Manager Buckley stated that he was surprised at th" large number of fans who arc 10 ac- company the team,
 Kensington is about the only town in fhS section that has given it's team good support this year, Things are pretty black for baseball in the outlying districts, and for Kensing- ion to go into the game in the man. rer in which they did brings words Of admiration from all the fans.
