it came out of the battle on ;hc short end of the score
 Coach Joe Foley of the Cardinal outfit had used his best pitcher in the two previous contests with the ManGanmcn and last evening he gamhled on his rangy righthander, Repass. Repass came through with flying colors. He had the loca, stickers eating out of his hand and allowed but seven hits. In only one inning was he in trouble, the eighth. when the New Britain crew chased three runs across the plate. He famed 10 of the local stickers dur ing the fray.
 The hope of the local post was placed in Harry Lcnnihan but the pace was too hot for him. After a brilliant start during which he rc. tired the opposition without hit or a run in the first two frames, he was treated harshly and was chased to the showers in the fifth Sam Capodicc, who had pitched tho first two games of the series was called in 10 stem the tide but he also proved to be ineffective.

 From this point on both teams bore down and waited for their op- ponents to crack. The Paper Goods made seN eral scoring gestures be- fore the ninth, having the first man Jp get OH base on three occasions only to have him die there for want of 9. hit by one of his mates.

Hartford's American Legion base ball colors are flying proudly from the top of the standard today while game played at the Bulkeley Stadium last evening. the deciding game in the series of the American Legion Boys league for the cham pionship of Hartford county. His tory repeated itself in the contest and Hartford won out to 4.
 Last year it was the same Hart ford club that stopped the locals march to a state crown and last night, Hartford, with tho district title at stake, outbatted and out fielded tho Manganmen to take the victory and go into the finals for thte state Legion crown.
 But ono more obstacle stands in the path of that courageous nine that came back after a to de- feat Monday evening to win the >>e And that last stumbling block is Bridgeport, the champion team or the southern part of the state.
 Behind mastcrful pitching, the Hartford team was unbeatable last night. To say that the New Britain team tried hard would be doing an injustice to the fighting spirit of the aggregation that sported the colors of the Hardware City. It gave it's Hartford rivals everything it had hut the best was not good enough and

Dixon said merely that Tildcn and his doubles partner, Fran. Hunter. eX- pected to take part in the doublas of the Meadow club invitation tour- nament at Southampton, N. r., and later in the Newport invitation event.

The noted reinsman, Walter R. Cox, who started his successful Cd reer as a trainer and race driver in New England over 30 years ago and who now trains the Good Time stable at Goshen, N. Y, will be back among his old-time friends the week of August 12 when the Grand Cir cutters pitch their tents at famous old Charter Oak park, Hartford.
 Along in June when Cox pulled up stakes at Goshen and started for To- ledo with his string of trotters and pacers, he remarked to a horseman friend: Don't know what I'm ship ping away for: haven't got much of anything in my stable But about the first time he turned around with

 Cox has named liberally in the laces at Hartford and the forme, New Englander will be quite liable 10 pluck off some of the big money during the week at Charter Oak park.
 The sl0,00O Charter Oak stake for PIP trotters which is to be decided at the Hartford Grand Circuit meet ing the week of August 12 vii. bring out one of the greatest fields of stake trotters that followers of the big ring have ever seen.
 While several in the field of eligi- bles to the rich event to be raced off or August 15 carry faster rec ords, a horse that is certain to play an I'm portant role in the clash of stars at famous old Charter Oak park will be the handsome stallion, High Noon 2:O4 F, owned by o. C. Bolt of Columbus, Ohio, in the stable of the wizard, Charley Valentine.
 High Noon is one of those trot- ters tha; rarely trots a poor race. He is a bulldog horse and has trot- ted around 2:03 on more than one occasion. While he will be forcei to battle with such trottina sensa- tions as his old stablematc, San Guy 2:03 IA, as well as Nelly Signal, 2:OS F, Full Worthy POP, Lullawat 2:03 1-4, Ruth NJ.

RE-FUEL
FLIGHT SEEN

Major Luke Christopher, Of the
contest committee of the National
Aeronautical Association, predicted
yesterday that the year 1880 will
be outstanding In aviation history
through attempts to circle the
globe in refueling flights.
The Navy--as the Army this year
set the vogue for endurance re-
fueling tests through the 15O-hour
flight of the Question Mark-may
take the lead next summer In
world-encircling efforts.
By utilizing three airplane. car.
riers, the Saratoga. Lexington ard
Langley as refueling stations in
midocean, the Navy would be bet
ter equipped than private organiza-
tions to make the flight. 1t was
pointed out.
Land refueling stations also
could be established in Europe and
Asia. These, it Is believed, would
be quite adequate to keep the
planes provisioned for the $4,000.
mile flight.
Major Christopher said the en-.
durance flights this summer have
beeh a tremendous boon in educat-
ing the public to the safety ard
reliability Of .airplane travelling.

WALKOUT SHUTS
BRITISH MILLS
Ry HARRY r. FLORY

MANCHESTER. England, July 80
Sl.-LHtle hope of immediate
relief in the Lancashire cotton
workers walk-out was held out
today as attempts to bring about
arbitration between employers and
laborers led to recurring failures.
The walk-out. the worst in Britain
since the disastrous general strike
Of 1925, has paralyzed the entire
Lancashire cotton industry. Ninety
per cent of the mills in the district,
comprising a total of about 1900,
are idle. and 100000 workers rem
dered without work because of their
refusal TO accept wage cut of
12h per cent.
Less than 200 miles in all the
far-flung Lancashire district were
operating today. A few of them
maintained operation by continuing
the old wage schedules in defiance
OF the orders OF. the employers as
sociations, but at only one mill did
the workers brave the edict Of
their unions by accepting work at
the new reduced wage scale.
Hopes of successful intervention
by the British ministry of labor
were dashed by an official state
ment from Miss Margaret Bond
field. minister of labor. in which
she held out no prospect. of imme-
date amelioration of conditions.

TARIFF BILL
By international New. servies

By international News Service
The Hawley tariff bill, which
passed the House with the highest
duties ever imposed here, is being
materially slashed by the Senate
Finance Committee, it was learned
today.
The Senate's Republican financial
chiefs, apparently working in close
harmony with the White House.
have reduced scores of increases
and their toll will include hundreds
of items before the bill reaches the
Senate.
This reduction will be due in no
small measure to the influence OF
President Hoover, who has gone on
record as favoring only such tariff
increases as are necessary to pro
tect American industry and labor
against cheap foreign competition.
The House increases on sugar,
leather and hides and other house
hold necessities probably will feel
the Senate axe. Senator Reed
Smoot (R.) of Utah, chairman OF
the committee, has declared his pro-
posed sliding scale of sugar
duties would invite opposition only
from advocates Of the House rate
Of $2.40 per hundred pounds on
Cuban imports.
ANY interests opposed to any
decrease in the House rate, Smoot
said, Twill be opposed to my scale"
Smoot announced he already had re-
ceived. protests from Western beet
growers and Southern cane-sugar
producers,
Soma time aso smoot indicated
his scale would range from $500 TO
$2.40 per hundred pounds on Cuban
imports-whIch would be q material
reduction over the flat House rate
Of $2s4o ak I'll times.
