Two double headers are being played in the Rotary league this aft- ernoon, these being the final games of the season in the circuit Games scheduled today and Wednesday are being played off today.

 Manager Val Gay of the Sacred Heart baseball team had one of the strangest tricks on record Tn 1nls city pulled on him some time previ- ous to yesterday. He had game scheduled between his team and Yalesville to be played at the Wash ington school grounds.
 Shortly before the game was to start, the Yalesville manager tele- phoned that the game was cancelled. Manager Gay then secured the St. Matts team to play.
 Investigation showed that the Yalesville manager, Ed Masso, had been offered more money than his guarantee, if he would stay away from the Washington school grounds yesterday afternoon. He was told that there was no Sacred Heart baseball club here.
 Mystery surrounds the identity of the man responsible for the offer and in order to straighten out the matter, special meeting of the Polish Young Mems club of Sacred Heart church, which the team rep resents, has been called for tonight. The session will be held at E:30 o'clock in the club rooms
 It has been learned that Masso was paid double the guarantee of fered for the game. for not coming to this city.
 McElwain, bask ketball star, intends to come to this city next season to play with the New Britain team, ac- cording to information received by some New Britainites during the past few days. McElwain is living in New Haven and a party of local men met him recently at Savin plans on coming to New Britain.
 The Bridgeport newspapers have made every known charge possible that the Legion regional baseball series played off in this city. was all against Bridgeport. The charges are so silly and unfounded that no one in this city will pay any heed to them. The Bridgeport crowd cer- tainay earns the doubtful honor of being called the poorest sports in the world. Another case of sour grapes"
 Following the games played yes terday in the city baseball cham pionship series, the standing is as follows:

CARE Of NEEDY
HERE SCORED

With the exception Of China
and India. old-age dependency is
more acute in the United States
than in any other countries,
Abraham Epstein, executive secre-
tary of the American Association
for Old Age Security, declared at
q breakfast in the Occidental
Hotel today.
Congress was flayed by Epstein
for indifference to the worthy
poor with the haSty paternaliStic
action of the U. s. Government
for Wall Street gamblers" He
also attacked the policy of re.
ducing taxes without having es-
tablished either a system of
straight pensions or one Of social
insurance.
We are the least taxed among
nations, he declared, and yet we
reduce taxes without caring for
the poor, while the heaviest taxed
nations Great Britain and Ger.
many have found means Of pro.
Viding for their aged depend dents.
All bills and resolutions for eS.
tablishing some system by which
to provide for the needy. intro
dtlced in Congress during the last
two decades. have been lost in
the committee graveyard" Ep-
stein declared.
