BRISTOL ID PLAY INTERVIEW CLUB
1 Endees and Norwich Club Clash Next Sunday Afternoon

Bristol, Aug. - There is bound to be plenty of action at Muzzy field on the coming Sunday afternoon when the classy Riverview club. rep resenting the Norwich State hospital, will make their third appearance of the season here against the New Departure baseball tossers.
 The hospital nine should need no introduction to local fandom, having already demonstrated their ability by tossing the Bearing Makers back on their launches in three of the four games already played between the pair. The visitors have been step- ping along in whirlwind fashion and have amassed a string of 23 victories in 25 starts.
 The Norwich gang will present their strongest lineup. which will show either Buck Sullivan or Tony West, both conquerors of the local club, on the moundI Belair will be behind the plate with Zielke on first. Liberty at second. Normandin hold ing down short and Sank at third. The outfield will be capably patrolled by Mills, Moore and Dugas.
 Against this powerful combina- ton the New Departures will coun- ter with their first-string combina- ton, which means that Big Mike Murray, who holds one victory in two starts against Norwich. will again receive the call against the downstaters.
 The contest is scheduled to start promptly at o'clock and Messrs. Coughlin and McCabe will umpire.

DEMPSEY INSISTS
 0N ALATER DATE
EZ-Champion Wants to Be Right
 When He Meets Tunney

Chicago. Aug. 3 R1Jack Demp- sey's opposition to entering the ring before Sept. 26 today continued to be the chief item of interest in his imminent engagement with Gene Tunney for the worlds heavyweight title.
 In a statement at Los Angeles last night, the challenging ex-champion made known that he wanted to be right" when he renews his acquainn- tance with Tunney, and said he did not see why Rickard would not de- lay the bout until after Sept. 26, to give his man opportunity of getting into the proper mental condition.
 Dempsey said: T want to be right when I fight Tunney again. I see no reason why Rickard can't grant me the favor I ask, delaying the fight until the last week of Septem- Der, because of the illness of my wife. I can't leave her in her pres ent condition and Rickard knows that if I am not happy mentally I can't be right physically"
 Notwithstanding Dempsey's close friends intimated that they thought Jack would ultimately agree to Richards plans. after learning from his wife's physician that her con- dition was not so serious as he sup posed. The doctor said Mrs. Demp- sey would be able to accompany her husband east in time for the pro- posed fight date, Sept. Is or 22.
 With the Stadium rented. the pro- moter's license issued. and all other necessities arranged for. Chicago fight fans and officials were of the opinion that the date Of Richards s choice eventually will prevail.
 Rickard and George Getz, the nominal promoter, said they were anxious to hold the match con the original date but might delay it un- til the 22nd if Dempsey proved ob- durate. Dempsey's plea for the la ter date was vetoed entirely because the Stadium Is unavailable after Sept. 25. .,
 Getz was granted promoters 1i- cense yesterday by the Illinois state athletic commission.

 Many of the Fafnir hits counted for nothing in the early innings but in the fourth frame. the Dragons managed to punch a hole in the otherwise unscathed scoring column. In the remaining innings, with Fer guson proving invincible. they got enough runs to tuck the game away.
 Johnny Klatka started things in the fourth with double to center. Ferguson cracked the first ball pitched to the same place for two bases, In the fifth, Hal Corbin walk ed and came around on successive singles by Walicki and Kenure. A series of misplay by the Newmatics gave the Fafnirs their third run. Ferguson singled to left and went 10 third when Ernie Anderson threw wide to first to get O'Brien. Smith boted grcunder and Ferguson counted.
 An extra base hit to deep center by Klatka followed by O'Briens long single to left ended the scoring.
 Corbin, Klatka, Ferguson and O'Briea wielded heavy clubs for the winners. The summary:

Rainy Weather Has Interrupted
 Central League Schedule

The frequent Sunday rains of the past few weeks have seriously ham, pered the efforts of teams in the Central Connecticut Baseball league to adhere to the schedule mapped out at the beginning of play and at a meeting of the officials of the cir cult held in Meriden last night a list of dates on which the post poned contests will be palyed off, was arranged.
 Nnie games in all have been post poned because of rain. A question arose as 10 whether the postponed games should be dropped and the third round started but after delib- eration, it was thought more advan- tageous 10 play off the postponed affairs instead of dropping them out
 After the second round of the league has been. completed, the con- tests will be scheduled as follows:

RED SOX SCHEDULE
Johnny Tobin's Crew to Meet Col linsyille Here Saturday and Mystic There Sunday.

The Corbin Red Sox baseball team will clash with the Collinsville team of the Central Connecticut league at Willow Brook park in this city on Saturday afternoon. This will be the play-off of a game that had to be called before it was finished here a few weeks ago.

The visitors are coming to this city fortified with a strong lineup and they confidently expect to measure the locals. Man ager John Tobin, on the other hand. has winning crew now and he ex- poets to make strong bid for hon. ors in the few remaining games.
 On Sunday afternoon, the Red Sox will play the Mystic town team there. This is an annual trip for the locals who are always greeted by an exceptionally large gathering of fans in their appearances.

DUEL OF. THE APPLE-KNOCKERS- COBB STILL COBBING
AROUND THE SEASONS FIRST FISH STORY
By PHILIP MARTIN

With the parade of appleknockers
from dugout to plate we'll under way,
several large questions pop into the
minds of the turnstile-turners Base
ball intelligentsia the length and
breadth Of the land begins to perk up
and ask about things.
One Of the favorite issues before
the assembly this season seems to
rest upon the various batting abilities
Of two fellows who, If not young, GER
tainly haven't taken TO the rockers
just yet The two ash-swingers un-
der debate are Babe Ruth and Mr..
McGraw's new second baseman, Rog-
ers Hornsby.
Who'll break up the most ball
games? Who'll get the most home
runs? Who'll win in the race for bat
ting honors?
Echo and the scribes will answer
after the acrobatic arithmetic Of Oc-
tober. Meanwhile
For the six years, 1920-26, Horns
by led the National League in bat
ting with grand average Of .397-
the best six-year average ever put
down. And that's figuring the bad
-1926-when illness dulled his
glamour.
Ruth has a twelve-year batting
average of .349. He has 356 honers
to his credit in those years, and pitch
ers have slipped him the Annie Oak
leys 1880 times. A formidable aver
age-considering the homers and the
walks. He hopes ito make 1t 400
circuit rides this season.
AS the dry agent said of Haig and
Haig, They'll bear watching.
A bitter old man, pointed out by
the wiseacres as a "last year mar"
is doing his turn with Comics child
rem this season. You may have heard
of him before-Tyrus Raymond Cobb
from somewhere in Georgia.
Scriveners there are who slew and
buried Cobb these years agone, but
the ensuing seasons have proved they
wove their fabric Of not strictly nom
shrinkable wool For the Georgia
Alberta has returned anon to speak
a louder and better piece than teach
er called upon him for.
He's older, and bit squintier,
little harsher, a little more than ever
inclined to glover in the corners by
himself. All very true, but
The pitchers will please bring COM
