tor the catching position Is an old
timer but he hasn't the pep" nor
the arm that Sullick possesses and
rom some OF his roommates. we
have heard that the loca! boy stands
ton.
The kinston manager has taken a
great deal of interest in Sullick and
told him il he had good throwing
arm, he stood good chance to
make the team. Sullick got into
the first game and played In the
Eighth and ninth innings.
The team went out OF town .or the
second exhibition game and Sullick
accompanied the squad with the
veteran staying home. Sullick caught
six frames. He batted twice. the
first time being thrown out short to
FIRST and the second time, lacins out
u pretty single. His team lost to
Sullicks success or failure in
making the grade will rest with his
lack of experience. Whether he
can play the game as good as the
old timer he is battling will depend
on whether he can work himself
into the team as 4 component part
OF the club.
His work around these parts made
him easily the premier catcher of
New Britain last year and he was
surely ready to land into faster and
higher company, We look for him
to be retained as the regular
catcher on the team.
Jimmy Clinch. local pugilist,
scored his second knockout since
turning professional, last night in
Hartford when Referee Jim keefe
stopped a one-sided slaughter in the
fourth round.
r.
Cilnch had Phil Chapman of
Bridgeport as his opponent and
from the start, the local boy
swarmed over the Bridgeporter.
Referee Keefe showed good judy
ment In stopping the bout when
Chapman failed to protect himself
coming out of the clinches.
Clnch Is showing a world OF i'm
lrovement in his every fight. He
works out daily with Louis (kid)
Eaplan at the latters training quar-
,ers In Meriden and he goes three
or four rounds almost every day.
From these exchanges. the local boy
has been learning how to shoot his
punches and the results Of his work
are being shown in his recent bouts.
Johnny Clinch, brother to Jimmy.
who is the ace of amateur boxers in
this city, will return to the ring next
Thursday night in the next tourna-
nent of the Mohawk A. c. at the
Tabs hall.
