WANT TO MAKE WOMEN
 PAY FOR BALL GAMES
Five Directors of Pacific Coast League Seek to Make Wigley
 Change Plans.

San Francisco. May : P-Five directors of the Pacific coast baseball! league. constituting quorum, have passed a resolution calling on Will liam Wrigley, owner of the Los An- geles club, to discontinue the prac- tlce of admitting women free to ball games in Los Angeles on Tuesdays. Saturdays and Sundays.
 Should Wrigley refuse to abide by the decision, the case will be carried to the national board of arbitration Of minor leagues.
 It is understood the Los Angeles club will take no notice of the de- mand or any action taken by the na tional board and that eventually the problem of allowing the fair sex to attend all games gratis in Los An- geles will be threshed out in civil court.
 The Los Angeles club is the only one of the eight in that league which accords free admission to women every day. The league con- stitution says women are not sup posed to be admitted gatis on Tues days, Saturdays or Sundays.
 The other clubs have free admls- sion days but only from one to three {. week.

HIGH SCHOOL ID PLAY FOUR GAMES
Local Nine to Ply Leuk High
 Of Seathngtoa Today

Four games. three Of which are regularly scheduled and the fourth | practice contest. will be played by the New Britain High school basa- ball team this week.
 This afternoon the team will play Lewis high school of Southington in New Britain. Thursday after noon ! practice game with the Stanley Works team, last years In- dustrial league champ. will be play ed and on Friday afternoon the Red and Gold team will play its first regular home game against Suffield preparatory school. The week of unusual activity will come to an end Saturday afternoon when the team will go to Hartford and play . re- turn game with St. ThomaS' semi- nary nine.
 Coach George NJ. Cassidy is very optimistic concerning the teams future success He claims the squad is not as weak in hitting as it seems and that the players hit the bail hard in the St. Thomas game last CdlAtuuy. IL 3CCIACU A0 IL 0AI VII balls were hit right at some mem- Der Of the visiting team. he said.
 Although Hermy schmarr was the losing pitcher. Coach Cassidy was we'll satisfied with his work. Ac- cording to MT. Cassidy. Schmarr had everything on the ball and had it not been for a bad first inning would have been a probable winner. At the present time it is the inten- ton Of the coach to reserve Schmarr for the return game with St. Thom- as nine.
 Lenihan will probably get the call as the pitching choice this after noon. He is playing on the team for the first time this season and showed up very we'll in | practice game against the Kingswood team of Hartford recently which ended in a 5 to 5 tie. The rest of the team will consist of Captain Mangah C, Potts lb. Tuskowski .b, Partyka .s. Bogdanski 3b. Osipowicz If. Wesoly Of and Schmarr rf
 Lewis high school will use the fol- lowing lineup: Butler c. Bellabitto p. Ouellet 1b. Ferrucci 2b, Leach ss. Myskowski 3b, Snowman rf Smith cf and Nelson If.
 Stanley Partyka. shortstop. may be the pitching selection for the Suffield game, but if Lenihan shows good stuff he will again be used in this game. Partyka's defensive strength at shortstop will not be lost if this action is taken.
 Clark, the former Hartford high infielder will be used at shortstop if Partyka is pitching. Coach Cas- sidy is in doubt as to the pitcher he will use in the Stanley Works prac- tice game.

TWILIGHT BALL TO
 HELP FANS SEE GAMES
Bob Farrell Believes Innovation in Hartford Will Make for h.
 creased Attendance.

In adopting twilight baseball as a fixture in Hartford Bob Farrell, president of the Senators, had in mind the desires of fans within a radius of 20 miles to see Eastern league ball on other days than Sat urday or Sunday.
 Our directors believe that fans in the cities and towns close to Hart ford want to see Eastern league baseball" says Farrell. and want to sec it at other times than Saturday afternoon or on Sunday. So we have adopted twilight ball, with our games starting at six o'clock. in or der that these fans. as well as the working people Of Hartford. may attend the games if they so desire without losing any time from their occupations"
 Farrell has also inaugurated the system of admitting women to the grounds and stands free on all days but Saturday and Sunday, provided they are accom- panied by an escort. Boys, accompanied by parent or guardian. are also admitted free to the weekday games.
 He emphasizes the fact that the games on Saturdays and Sundays will start at p. m. and all week day games will be called promptly at six

 Never walk across the trap ex- cept when it is absolutely impossible to walk around. Never drag your golf bag into and across the trap.
 Never. under any circumstances, carry your golf bag into the trap. Drop 1t on the bank. select the club you need, and then walk down into the trap. Never allow your caddy to enter the trap with you-it just isn't being done in the best of golf circles.
 Walk into the trap from the side nearest the ball and walk out the same way.
 It takes time and costs money to keep the traps raked and in play able condition. Don't spoil them for the golfers who will be coming along behind you.
 Try to smooth your heel prints out as you walk out.
 There are two places where you never should be caught with your golf bag. One is on the green and the other is on the'trap. No matter what your score may be on the card. if . seasoned golfer spots you trail ing across the trap dragging your golf bag behind you he'll not con- sider you . golfer in the truest meaning of the word.
