.SUfflDlD DEFEATS
 HOLY CROSS TEAM
Parish Nine Hd8 Strong Bid
 for Btllt0d Victory

After staging . great rally to tie the score after being behind 10 runs the Holy Gross team was forced to bow to the suftield town team yes terday at the Washington school grounds when they were unable to hold the Upstaters after having tied count. The score was IS to 10. The winners had . 10 run advantage when they took the field after their turn at bat in the fourth and it ap- peared as though they had the game sewed up.
 The Holy Cross team managed to get four runners over in this session but it was not until the sixth that they did their heavy work. In this frame Kredar and Dalkowski hit homers which accounted for five runs which added to another made in this session brought them on even terms with the winners.
 After having completed their third double play of the game in the eighth and with one man on the locals were the victims of a home run clout by Murawski which was the longest hit made on the Wash inEton ground this season. Another home run almost as long was made by Fuller of the visitors in the third at which time two runners were on the bases.
 The chief weakness of the home team was in the field when the visitors had men on bases. Five er- TOTS. each of them costly, aided the winners in getting most of their tal- lies and kept the losers fighting up- hill all the way.
 In the first inning the winners scored twice on three singles and q base on balls. The Holy Cross out fit however gave Zembko splendid support in this frame as Kredar threw one runner out at the plate after fielding hit and Zapatka nipped another who was trying to score on . fly. A fine double play in the second after an error had al- lowed visitor to get on prevented the winners from scoring.
 A single and error and Fuller's homer gave the sunield club three more in the third. After one man was on in the fouth Zembko weak ened when his support went to pieces and before the visitors were retired they had five more runs. Christopher went to the mound at the close of that frame and for the next three innings kept the visi- tors away from the plate but he was ntcked for the fatal homer by Mu- rawski with one on and two out in the eighth.
 The home team did all of its scoring off Lucy who took the mound in the fourth and retired in favor of F'itka in the seventh. Mu- rawski hurled the eighth and ninth and was just as much . mystery to the home team as he was in the first three innings when he held them scoreless. During the five innings he worked Murawski allowed but two hits and famed eight. Joseph Salak was elected captain of the Holy Cross team by his mates just before the game started. The summary:

ten and one-fifth seconds. Saturday he did the 2cO in 23 2-5 seconds.
 The 40 yard dash again furnished thrilling finish. this time between Captain Grzybowski of the local team and Mahoncy Of Crosby. In the last few yards both men fought each other off. first one, then the other taking the lead, but Grzybow- ski managed to pull ahead at the end for we'll earned victory.
 As is most always the case, New Britain did well in the field events, taking four first places and tying for two out of a possible six.

.UHLE IS HELPING
 TIGERS IN RACE
Has Perfected a New Delivery Known as the "Slide Ball"

New York, June GP)-The De- troit Tigers owe a substantial por- ton ot their early season progress to the good right arm of George uhle. And George Uhle can attri- bate a good share of his brilliancy in winning nine successive games to the perfection of a new delivery the 'slide ball"
 That, at least, is the conviction of Bucky Harris, pilot of the fam ous champion Washington Senators of 1924-25. who is guiding the cur rent destinies of the Tigers for the first time
 "uhle has done wonders for us,' . declared Harris, now on his first eastern swing. ''Of course he ha! everything, control and lots of stuff as we'll as a fast ball whenever h, needs it. But he has something new this season. You can call it slide ball. It's neither q curve nor 8 fadeaway but is fast one tha' slides away from right -handet batsman as the ball hears the plate Uhle perfected it this spring.
 Sammy Gray, one of the main stays of the Browns. has developed something like it and several of oul pitchers are getting the hang of I but Uhle is the only one getting req results"

Harris, who keeps an eye on the baseball situation in general. likes the chances of the Pirates in the National league scramble. Bucky had an opportunity to study the Bucs as well as the Chicago Cubs in the spring training season. 90 anything he has to say is far from gueSSWOrk

New Britain herald., 1929-06-03

After watching the Athletics bat ter his club to defeat twice in row on Friday and Saturday, Harris was quite willing to share the view Of critics who see the pennant pros poets of the Mackmen through rose colored glasses.
 Connie has great ball club but I think it will be much closer race in the American league this year than at any time since the Yankees gained the ascendancy over my old Washington club.
 Don't make any mistakes about counting the Yankees out now. They have too much power to be dis counted. even though they are far below the spot they occupied at this time a year ago. The realization. however, that the Yankees are not quite so tough seems to have acted as a tonic for the rest of the leagua.
 "The Athletics look like the club to beat now. But the Browns arc in the thick of it and I hope to have my Tigers closer to the top aft CT we get through in the east. We have lost too many games so far but we have lots of power and think Uhle will have more pitching s support.
 Roy Johnson is great addition to the outfield; a real star, and be- lieve me, our new first baseman, Alexander, can bust 'em. Even if he isn't a Joe Judge on the defense. Harry Heilmann is driving in more runs than ever

BURRI1lS BLASTED
Local Baseball Team Suffers Disas- trOls Reverse in First Game in ThOsapsonvilIe.

The Burritt A. c. baseball team met with disaster yesterday in the opening game of the year for them. Playing in Thompsonville. the locals met an extraordinarily strong aggre- Gation and lost by the score of l4 to ,.
 The game was featured by the masterful pitching of Rypysc and the hitting of Herbert and Peorek for the Burritts. Perry Parsons, playing at first base. had a wonder full day in the held. He demonstrat- ed that he is clearly one of the best first seekers in this city.
 Bruno Kania started the game but he was driven from the mound in the carly innings. Al Havlick then took up the burden but the damage had been done Bruno kept in the contest and featured with his hitting. The summary:

and Grimala third.


 In the running broad jump it ap- peared for while as though Crosby would take first with jump of l Is feet II inches by Haight, but Captain Grzybowski did 19 feet 10lt inches on his third try. assuring New Britain of first place. Although unable to do 20 feet as in the tri- angular meet. Sidney Lines jump was good enough for third place. Both the high jump and the pole vault ended in ties. Gwiazda of New Britain and Chisholm of Crosby were tied for first in the pole vault, after both failed on 10 feet l inch. Both vaulters did 10 feet on third tries but were unable to go higher. Jenkelunis, who did 10 feet 6 inches in the triangular meet, failed with Arel and Mcdonald of Crosby at a much lesser height for a three-cor- nered tie for third place. Grimala and Gallius, both giants. did feet inches to tie for first place in the high jump. Jenkelunis was among two Crosby men to tie for third.
 Lines, Grzybowski, Helm and Grimala starred for the Franklin Square team while Haight and Ma honey starred for Crosby.
 This was the last meet of the year and Coach Lionel Depot will have to start rebuilding next season as most of the regulars will be lost b, graduation, either this June or mex, February.
