When fishing in game country in the summer time you will see more deer and moose than during the hunting season.
 The life if the de,r moose, bear, caribou and lesser animals is all most unbearable in warm weather.
 Water is their haven of refuge from the stinEs and bites of the black flies, deer flies, "no.see.ums" and mosquitoes.
 The insect life of the arctic IS more prolific than in the tropics.

The City league managers made a rule that any players caught swear ing on any team would be barred from the game, but there were plenty of chances to bar players at the hill Saturday. As was said in this column yesterday, it was one of the worst degrading scenes seen at the hill this year and some steps ought to he taken to stop roUdy tactics and nasty language of the fans on the sidclincs.

We would like to see Budnick No. 1, now playing with Manchester, get a chance on some professional team and it is our prediction that he would make the grade.

It's hard thing for any man to try and hit consistently when he is kept on the bench most of the time, but that Is what they are doing to Wojak and it's about time the Hart- ford management did something about it.
New Britain herald., 1925-07-21

"chucky" Wojak Is the silent member of the Hartford team, 50 it seems. He has sat on the bench now for long time and If Hartford doesn't want him, why don't they give him a chance to go somewhere else? It is confdentially reported that at least two other teams in the Eastern circuit would grab Wojak up right away if he were released, but O'Connor won't let him so.

The league has beef sailing along in good shape so far except for the protests entered by the teams.
