Up until the sixth inning Hartford failed to connect for h,t and it began. 10 look as # "Heriny" Schmarr would reach the hall of fame with no-hit, no-run game.

 For the. New Britain. team. the sterling all-around play of Billy Ross in right field and Joe Potts at first base was the feature. These two did some. timely hitting. Cy Clark on second base has shown he is one of the best of the new play CTS to join the team this year. After pitching all year and taking de- fcata in many games which could have been won if the team hit in tack of him, Schmarr won his first game yesterday. He. himself, was the principal factor in the victory Captain Stortell was Hartford's best nan. He was a tower of strength at second tase.
