 Manager Cabay is evidently talk jng only for s6ect" is the comment ef Manager Eddie Moore Of the KenslAston team on the statement snaAs by Cabay yesterday. We sand ready to meet him at any time he says but he evidently doesn't want to play us. If he wants to meet with us and talk terms, then let him Aesttnate the tlne and place through the newspaper Any pub lic place in New Britain except the Falcon club is agreeable to us. We would rather meet in a newspaper effice."
 '"Any games that we have on our list will not prevent us from meet ing the Falcons. Manager Cabay says that he has 50 many series in the works that he Is afraid that he won't be able to find dates on which to play Kenstngton. I would like to remind Cabay that there are several other teams in New Britain that he hasn't yet signed up. For instance. there is the American Legion team. the Burritt Juniors. or any other team in the Junior City league. There arc the Pirates, the West Ends and the tcams in the senior City league. There is also the Wash ington team. champion of the Ro- tary Boys league"
 eff he is out to play all these teams, he will certainly make treat record for hts team this year. Most of these teams will play him for nothing except the glory of playing tho Falcbns." ''ThAt appears to he Cabay's in- tentions. However. if he wants to play nigs with us, let him come out in the open. We haven't anything to hide and ] can't see what he has. There 10 only one explanation to the people in kensington and that is that Manager Cabay has very bad case of cold feet"
 eve are sitting pretty financially here in kensington. We don't owe any money for our baseball team and although we haven't made any, we stand even on the board which | is better than other teams can say. We are not out for the money but toI IV, hear Cabay raving about this and that championship when he is side stepping kensington.'
 "No matter whether we play the Falcons or not, am convinced that | have succeeded in smoking Cabay out of his hole. His purpose Is very evident. My challenge for a series still stands and if he doesn't want series, my challenge for single game in any public park in New Britain with nothing except the game at stake, still stands"
 "Furthermore, will at any time post . bond with any responsible person in New Britain in any req sonable amount and Cabay can do the same and we'll play for that. In fact we'll do anything to play the Falcons as long as the series is ar. ranged as 1t should be arranged"
 "Kensington would be ashamed to contract for games with every kids team that is in existence. If we can't play teams down here that can give us a baseball game. then We don't want to play It all"
 Manager Cabay has adopted an arbitrary attitude in this matter. He publicly states that he is ready to do business with Kensington at any time and yet he makes proposition that no one but . team in despera- ton would accept. l hate to think that he is figuring on these games solely from a box office standpoint and for that reason, l would like to play him on any one of the following basis: 50 per cent for each team, 50 win % lose, 75 win 25 lose or win- ner take all"
 Now if Cabay is ready to talk terms and be thinks his team is bet ter than mine. let him produce. I don't figure that it is fair for Cabay 10 think he can hook up with any team witk him taking all the gravy. # he has his mind on money alone, then l am sure he won't play us. If he isn't after the money, then he will play us. at least. one game in . public park where the public won't have to pay to see the game and where neither team will make any money"
 "I and the officials of the Ken sington A. c. stand ready to meet Manager Cabay and any of his rep resentatives at any time next week to talk the matter over. We talked to Cabay before he signed up the Burritts but he didn't take us in order. Any night next week will find us ready to talk over the series with him. If Cabay doesn't want 10 talk business with us then he must stand guilty of having cold feet"
 "Gntil he gets ready to talk. not hot air. but terms. let him keep on playing the Sokols. the American Legion or any other junior team and let him pile up his record of victor- les. But don't let him ctaim any cham pionship until he .ias played us.
