 Manager John Tobin of the Cor bin Red Sox has been named 8 member of the schedule committee of the newly formed circuit. He will work with Tom Brown of Wall ngford and Carl Herman of Mid dletown on program of games. The committee will meet next Tues day night.
 Manager Tobin stated today that the practice of the team on Sunday will be followed by an important business meeting and it is urgent that all the players on the team and candidates report.
 The officers of the league are as follows: Dr. J. E. Stoddard of Meriden. president; James Riley of Wallingford, treasurer and J. L.. Jenny of the Cheney Brothers club of Manchester secretary.
 Manager Tobin named Ed Crow ley and Mike Lynch of this city as umpires for his club.

 The Cheney Brothers will repre- sent Manchester, the Lenox 4. C. will represent Wallingford, the h. silcos will be in the fight for Meri- den, The Recreations for Middle town and the PeXtos and Red SoN for Southngton and New Britain, respectively.
 The Red Sox will play their home games at Willow Brook park, per mission for baseball there on Sun day afternoons having been given by the park board at recent meet ing. The Red Sox will split the Use of the field with the Pirates and the Managers John Tobin and Ken Saunders will get together on the dates to be used.
 This will give New Britain fans two home games each Sunday, one at St. Mary's field where the Fal- cons hold forth and the other at Willow Brook park where either the Pirates or the Red Sox will be playing.
 Add to these games the home contests Of the All-kensington team and there seems to be the prospect of plenty of baseball this season.
 Johnny Clinch of this city entered the knockout class last night at the first open air amateur tournament at the yelodrome in East Hartford. He put Ray O'Brien of Lowell Mass. 10 sleep in two minutes of fighting i'll the first round.
 Add a kayo punch to Johnny's ability and he will be a champion before many moons are up.
 Joe Kody of this city won the de- cision over Stan Girady of Hartford in three rounds. The fight was slow and uninteresting.
 The Hartford tournament featured Bat Battalino who scored a tech pical knockout over Paul Ventura of Lawrence. Mass. in the second round of their fight. Ventura had been knocked down by Battalino and he failed to take advantage of the count. He arose to his feet before he thought of the chance to rest and then promptly dropped down again "luOuL DtlllS Jllt
 Referee Frankie Portcll disquali- fled him. He would probably have been put away though for the dura- ton of the fight, Battalino met the stiffest opposition he has encountered i'll long time.
 These two boys will probably be matched again in the near future and they should furnish the feature for followers of the amateur fight game.
