in 1927 was 16 per million less than the
alcohol fatalities during the saloon

AMERICAN LEGION
 l OPENS WITH WIN
Eddy-GloYer Post Baseball Team
 Beats West Hartford Crew

Eddy-Glover post. American Le- zion baseball team got off to fly ing start in the district Legion league last evening when it downed the Hayes-Velhage post nine of West Hartford in the latter town by score of 13 to s.
 The game was hard fought throughout A sensational rally by the West Hartford aggregation in the third inning kept it on the heels of the locals and held the interest of the fans who witnessed the battle. at high pitch.
 Thrills were numerous throughout the nine sessions, the local team supplying most of them. In tho first canto. a ponderous home run drive by Schmarr with two team mates on base accounted for three Hardware City tallies. In the third inning. circuit smash by Miller, local centerfielder, resulted in two more New Britain runs.
 The hero of the battle was Her mic Schmarr, who gave a fine exhi bition of relief pitching. With the score to in favor of the Mangar- men. the West Hartford tossers fill- cd the bases in the last half of the third inning with no outs. Lennihan was lifted in favor of Schmarr at this point and the West Hartford team went on batting pnf ho l it had scored five times and had taken one run lead.
 From the fourth inning on, how ever. Schmarr showed his real worth. During the lst six innings but two hits and one run were reg istered off his delivery. He pitched carefully and his opponents found extreme difficulty in locating his shoots. His control was faultless and not man reached first base. Thirteen of the West Hartford stick CTS were set back on strikes by him. Chris Revelli, the opposing pitch- CT, hurled fine game and although he was touched for 10 safeties. he deserved a better fate His team
 
 mates, however. gave him rasge l support and seven errors were coni- mitted. His delivery was peculiar at times and 13 of the local stickers famed.
 A fine catch by Mlynarski brought the game to close in the ninth in- , ming. The New Britain right field- CT caught the ball near the foul line after a hard run.
 The fielding of Russ Sperry and Zembroski and the batting of Miller were the features of the game.
 After its impressive win in the opening game of the district league, the Eddy-Glover post nine will en- | tertain the Bolton kasica post of Berlin in the Hardware City's first home game tomorrow afternoon. The contest will be staged at Wal nut Hill park and will get underway at 6 o'clock.
 Bacon. star twirler for the Berlin outfit is expected to oppose Coach Mansan's charges. Lennihan pr Capodice will probably get the call for mound duty on the local team. [ The summary.

had been fielding in wonderful style but the Fafnir nine cracked tempdrarily in the last half of the ninth. After Hillstrand had died out, Begley made first when Kania threw high to first on his hard smash to third. Fitzpatrick was safe when Huber juggled a throw at first. Here Huber frightened up and displayed his wares. Burning fast balls across the platter hs struck Ostertag and Lindgren out in succession to bring the battle to | close.
 The game was one of the best played in the circuit this season and was filled with snappy fielding. The first two innings produced the real hitting thrills of the game and then the large crowd was treated to pitchers battle, a rare thing with these days of lively balls. The feature of the game was a sensa- tional stop by Preisser of . line drive off the bat of Matteo in the third inning. Matted belted the ball square on the nose but Billy went out onto the grass to make . great stop and toss Matteo out at first. Ray" Begley in center field featured the play of the losers with many nice running catches of short flies. Vincent also f1elded we'll.
 The summary.
New Britain herald., 1929-06-28

Superb pitching by Lefty" Huber, combined with timely hits off the offerings of Preisser, sent the Lan- ders baseball team down to defeat by a score of to at the hands of the Fafnir nine last evening at Walnut Hill park. It was the first defeat of the season for the Univer- sal crew and threw them into a tie for first place with the Stanley Works nine.
 Preisser started on the mound for the league winners but the Dragons found his offerings to their liking and crashed out five hits in the first two innings for total of three runs including . long circuit drive by Huber. Nestor took up the reins in the third inning and engaged in a beautiful pitching battle with Huber but the early advantage scored by Fafnirs proved too much for the Landers team to overcome. Huber got off to . shaky start and was touched up for live hits in the first two innings. He then proceeded to take the game into his own hands and for the next seven innings held the Universal men without single solitary hit. He gave a beautiful exhibition Of twirling and seldom was in danger.
 Ferguson opened the game by crashing a single out to center field. O'Brien and Matteo were easy outs and it appeared that Preisser would retire the side without a score.
 With the count one and one. Hu- Der caught hold of one of Preisser's shoots and belted it out to deep center. The ball took a mean hop as Goeb attempted to field it and Huber romped around the bags for an easy home run, Ferguson count ing ahead of him.
 Ianders started to work at Huber in the last half of the inning when Goeb and Vincent singled after one out. Nestor skied to Ferguson and Hillstrand grounded out, taking Huber out of danger. Captain" Walicki opened the second session by smashing a solid bingle to center. Krause sacrificed him to second and he went to third as Kenure was be- ing tossed out at first Ferguson came through with his second hit of the game, Walicki denting the platter.
 The Universal nine made a great bid for runs in its half of the in- ming but was only able to score once on three hits. including a double. The veteran Ray Begley lined a single into right. He went to second when Fitzpatrick connected safely. Ostertag popped out but Lindgren came through with a double that struck the flag in left. Begley scored on the hit. Preisser hit a short fly to left and when Fitz- patrick attempted to score, Matteo doubled him up at the plate.
 The last score of the game came in the fourth when Bucheri tripled to center and crossed the plate on Vincent's error. Landers scored a run on an error and long sacrifice fly. From then on both pitchers were the masters and held the bat ters at their mercy Neither team threatened to score until the ninth when the Landers nine made a big bid for the game but Huber came to the fore and killed the rally by wonderful twirlink.
 Up until the ninth. both teams
