 Even though the games yesterday Fere only the second 10 be played in | he league, a wonderful improve bent was shown in the play of the | Willow Brook team especially. | Wampcd in their first start without | am organization, the team battled | he Washingtons to d standstill for 1 our innings yesterday and threaten d 10 win the game. l Washington, however, showed l rcat strength after the fourth | ramo and literally ran away with i he game.
 The sports writers in the New l ork papers are spreading them i Ives on the Dclaney-Bcrlcnbach | gh- which takes place, weather rmitting. tomorrow night at Eb- cts Field in Brooklyn.

 Delaney has been impressive in $ training and shows more speed | an ever before Berlenbach is in he physical shape, but he has no ew tricks than heretofore.
 Hype Igoe in the New York | -orld yesterday predicted that De hey would win within six rounds ld by knockout Some of the her New York papers stated that crlenbach seemed 10 be overtrain-

 Delaney is one of the unusual eX- piions in the ring today. He is lick. lightning punching battler ho can hit with either hand and $ method of working is a flash 10 osu who sec him. On form alone
 should win from Berlenbach hut aul is q ploddcr who can take any punch before he is through. In publication q short time ago, arlonbach, in q statement about the sht, said that fans would rcmem- 1T when he had Delaney down for Q count of nine. If he remembers ch a thing, he is about the only Q who does remember it. No one sa can recall that Borlenbach ever hooked Delaney down.
 There has been a report about at Delaney has been hitting the |se paths Of night life during his aininE grind, but thi is hard to lieye. Some who have soen him bile in training. stale that he looks rfect and he couldn't look that 4y unless he had adhered strictly training.

Nev were the early birds who went fer tickets some time ago and they gre successful in their attempts 10 them.
 The Kcnsington basketball team ould receive q big increase in tronage from baseball fans for its forts in securing bus transporta- bn from Upsons Corner to the Il park. The club has contracted pay $4 an hour for ? Connecticut D. bus and will provide free rides the park and back 10 the corner ter the game is over. Many New Britain fans have been Xious 10 see Kensington play this ar. but they didn't care for the hg walk from Upson's Corner Wn past tho American Paper pods Co. factory to the diamond. lis objection has been removed W and without doubt, Manager t Buckley and his cohorts in the nth-end town. should experience a cided increase in patronage. This seems to be the off month in seball and again we would sug- st that local teams get together q talk over city championship ries among themselves. The real atural" for a baseball series would
