BASEBALL FANS
. ] RESENT ACTION
Believe Kenslgton Team Should
Have Shot At Championship
SERVICES IN CHURCHES
August Wooding Funeral Takes
Place Today-Baseball Game
This Afternoon-Mrs. Sheffield
Funeral Tomorrow-Notes.

Baseball fans of this community
are considerably aroused by the lat
est action of the officials of the Fal-
con baseball team of New Britain
and the Corbin Red sox team in ar
ranging a city championship series
without the regular annual inclu-
sion Of the All-Kensington team.
For the first time in several years
this community has been ignored in
the selection Of the teams who will
battle for the title Of city champ
ions OF New Britain.
1t Is pointed out that, while
strictly speaking Kensington has no
place in New Britain champion
ship series. being outside of the city
limits, the line established this year
is fine one which was not appar-
ent on other years when the ALL
kensington colors were carried into
each annual series. Last year the To-
cal squad, under the managership
OF Pat Buckley, fought bitter bat
tie with the Falcons, resulting in a
tie for the series before the season
ended. and relentlessly squashed the
Red Sox hopes for a title in the
Hardware City. This year. under the
direction of Manager Dan Malarney,
Kensington is ignored and the Sc
ries is being arranged without the
local squad being given considera-
ton.
Several reasons are given by the
authorities of the championship Sc
ries. It is pointed out that the ALL
KS suffered several defeats in the
early part of the season when,
against the judgement of a larger
part OF the local fans Manager Ma
larney booked the Falcons before
the team had hit its present stride.
Falcon magnates declare that the
issue between the two teams has
been settled with concisively New
Britain victories. The other main
sington from the contest is the too
finely drawn assertion that Kensing-
ton is not eligible for New Britain
championship series.
From the All-Kensington camp,
comes local reasons for the surpris-
ing action. Officials of the Kensing-
ton Athletic club blame the exclu-
sion on money matters which could
no be settled between the two teams.
1t is stated that 35-45 proposition
with a 20 per cent slice going to a
Falcons official did not satisfy Ia
cal baseball officials and an offer
from the local camp of winner take
alp was rejected by the Hardware
City team.
1t has been promised by the ALL
Kensington leaders that a series will
be arranged with some team, posi-
bly, the Corbin Red Sox, with which
1.-THE local squad will end the season.
While the New Britain Sox have a
fairly fast organization. the substi-
tuition will not satisfy great por-
ton of local fans who have looked
forward to a settlement of last
years unfinished argument with the
Falcons this season.
The last argument adds further
dissension to a hectic season for the
M-Ksnsington team. 1u unlocked

CHICAGO, May 4.-Extremely
strong Liverpool cables gave wheat
q good gain at the outset on the
Chicago Board of Trade, but prices
eased off under local profit-taking
sales. while buying orders from the
outside kept the decline from assum-
ing any proportion. The general de-
mand indicated that shorts had COW
cred pretty freely the last few days.
The cash market was steady to &c
higher. Receipts here were twenty
two cars.
Reports from the Northwest stated
that fields were n sea of mud over
a large area in, the Northwest States
and there would be little farm work
for several days.
Corn showed more strength than
wheat and gained TO . cents. The
advance was attributed to short
covering and better cash demand
Profit.takinG developed late in the
session and best prices were not
held. The cash market was &c to
1c better. Local receipts were
seventy-three cars.
Oats rallied early but sold off later
with wheat, with closing prices not
far from yesterdays final figures.
Receipts were severty-three cars.
The cash market was unchanged to

Attorneys Skirmisl

1t was while Rainier was on the
stand that Remy and Inman in
dulged in a skirmish over whether
or not conviction, despite a plea Of
not guilty, stamps a defendant as
telling an untruth.
Remy asked Rainier:
DO you believe a man is justified,
IL charges have been placed against
him and he is convicted, to plead
not guilty? Would it be a justifi-
able lie? Would it not be injurious
to his reputation for truth-telling?"
Inman objected and Judge Jemes
A. Collins sustained the objection.
1t was at this point that Remy and
Inman clashed.
81 have heard" Inman declared
with sarcasm" "the young prosecu-
tor is an authority on legal proof
and its fundamentals and I would
suggest to him that he would write
book on it and get out of the prose
cutor's office"
II don't mind listening to obiec-
tions," Remy retorted, but if you
want to make a speech, hire hall. 3"
Four jury members-S. S. Sutton,
Lee Williams, j. p. Van Camp and
James F. Chamberlain-Tuesday de-
MED on the stand that they had
seen Armitage or knew him prior to
his appearance as a grand jury wit
ness two weeks ago.
Sutton, on the stand, said he had
never seen Armitage until two weeks
ago and had never talked to him.
"Never Approached"
"Since you became a member of
the grand jury, did Mr.. Armitage
ever suggest to you that you play
BALI with Claude Achey or anyone
else. in matters pertaining to indict-
ments?" Inman asked.
Remy objected and was upheld
by the court.
I'VE believe we have the right to
show this court that no such agree
ment was ever made and the state
ment made by Achey is untrue" In
man told the court.
Inman asked Williams a similar
