 bury, he received his usual razzing from tLe grand stand. Several New Britain boys who were in the stands and heard the unjust criticisms d. rected against the New Britain boy, took up the cudgel In hts defense and told the group of naggers \ few things. Some one needs 10 drum 1t into Hartford fans heads that "Chucky" is not man without e country.
 Wojak got neat single In the first Inning with Harry Hesss on first base, but Solomon hit q liner to the shortstop who took it on the first bound and shot the ball to second tor double play
 The Burritt Juniors would like to arrange a game for next Saturday with any team in the city averaging II years of age. Managers of teams wishing to hook up with this outfit should get i'll communication with SkinEer at 2olo-o.
 The City League will hop off to the second start of the season at Walnut Hill park this afternoon. The games will be among the best seen at the hill this season and should attract large crowds to the park. The race will start in earnest after today because of the fact that those teams that didn't get going last week expect to turn in wins today.
 An excellent attraction has been secured by Manager Joe Veniski for St. Marys field Sunday afternoon when the Collinsville team comes here to play. People in this city in- terested in baseball have known what the Collinsyllle team has done in the past and they are prepared to see a tightly fought contest ton,or- row. The Falcons are playing Col llneville in that town today.
 What savers of local battle will take place In Kensington tomorrow when the Pirates of this city invade the Paper Goods town 10 secure the scalps of nine warriors there. Slim" Politis will probably face the Pi- rates, making 1t Greek against Greek On numerous occasions, Slim has been on the mound for the Pirates, and tomorrow he may face his erstwhile mates.
 The Kensington club has under taken a mighty task this year Tn buying a new field and erecting a set of bleachers which for construc- ton are unequalled In any semi-pro field in the entire New England states. Fans who attend the games in Kensington can be assured great comfort while looking at the games.
 The track and field game in New Britain is apparently dead. If "Bill" Delaney. late beloved postmaster, were alive today. things would be hummins on the cinders. There are so many good boys in the city who have made names for themselves in the track meets about the city and yet they are doing nothing in this line for the cit yitselt. The V. r. W. marathon relay team which will en. ter the Hartford contest on July Fourth, is working out every week, and at the present time the members are ready to step right in a trim Manchester, Hartford or any other competitor in the race. New Britain copped first last year after having taken second place the year before. The boys from the Hardware City expect to have an easy time of it taking first honors again this year.

 Thinking over the action of the New York boxing commission in or dering Kaplan to fight Babe Herman in New York and nowhere else, it seems to us that the decision is "all wet" But there might be one loop hole wherein the commission feels that they are taking nothing away from Connecticut in ordering the bout held in New York. George Mulligan had the bout planned, but he had done nothing definite in re- spect to signing up the fighters and this might be taken to mean that he didn't have the fight.
 The Frog Hallow Senators of Hartford sent in a communication to the office asking to have us correct a story about game they played in Collinsvills, We don't remember writing about any such game but Ine drEulncut iS tllht SOilEonS snih the score was 14 to in favor of Collinsville when the score was ac- tually to 1. We print this explana- ton because of the fact that evident ly someone has told the manager of the Hartford team that he got roasting in this column. He didn't but what do we care.
 The best part about this argument Is the fact that Commissioner Tom Donshue has taken up the cudgel in defense of Connecticut and for the sake of fair play.
