a serious nixup in the registra-

to a spIit-up Of the districts by

The last Legislature split the

also split the First election dis

young man, evidently without
looking to see if another car was
approaching, suddenly swerved his
machine, which collided with the
truck of the Kitchens Milling Com

most completely demolished and
Mrs. Belts thrown to the concrete
highway, her throat being cut by
a broken glass in the windshield.
Her skull, it is said, was also

PALACE OPENING
 DRAWS B|G CROWD
New Britain to Have Second Entry in State Bowling League

The official opening of the Palace Bowling alleys filled the spacious hall to capacity with bowling fans gathered together last night. In the feature match game played, New Britain defeated the Charter Oak five two out of three games. Eddie Anderson, bowling in place of Joe Foote. hit high with $50. Val Gay, manager of the Sacred Heart alleys, who, with Manager DeLucco, bowled for Hartford, hit high three strings for the Capital City v.,h 342.
 Following the match. banquet was held at Charlie's Grill and more than 60 bowling fans attended. These included Phil Phibault, presi- dent of the Connecticut State Bowl ing League and John DeRidder, president of the National Duck Pin Bowling association of Hartford.
 New Britain will have a second representative in the Connecticu. State Duckin League At the ban QUet last night it was announced that the Palace Five will take the place of Fred Teller's five of Meri- den. The Silver City aggregation dropped out during the past week.
 The local team will roll it's first game tonight at Wallingford and the first home match will be staged here Friday night The Palace Five will be as follows: Val Gay, Murphy, Leo. Salvo, Zucchi, How arth and Richter. Thesscores of the two matches played were as fOlIoWs.

Philadelphia, Oct. l Rs-Three of Connie Mack's new model AS last year exploded the theory that star slsggers are under a great strain in a worlds series.
 Mickey Himself" Cochrane. the games greatest catcher, took the pitching of the Chicago Cubs at a 400 pace.
 Jimmy FoXx, who had just finish ed his first year as a regular at first, batted .350. This included two home runs in the series.
 Al Simmons, pointed to as the Athletics heaviest gun, batted an even 300. The big left fielder also hit two home runs.
 All there casually overcame ner- vousness to live up to their repu- tatons as luggers-reputation founded on the numerous base hits that had driven the Athletics 10 the clubs first pennant since 1914.
 The calmness of the hitters, and their proven ability to get going in a short series, is one of the main reasons why the Athletics are favor ed to emerge from the coming series again as worlds champions.
 The big hitters are many who have flopped in worlds series. They begin with Ty Cobb, one of the greatest batters of all time. who never was able to do anything in his worlds series days with Detroit.
 Babe Ruth got just seven hits in his first two worlds series after becoming the home run king.
 Rogers Hornsby, great natural right hand slugger, never has been able to live up to expectations in a series. Last year the worlds series average of the Cubs big sec ond baseman was .227.
 But Mack persuades his men that if they are hitters the base hits will ccme-no matter what the series. And these three boys are hitters.
 Simmons and Cochrane all sea son have been around the top in American League batting averages. Foxx's hitting has been well above 800. He has driven out some 37 hcmers.

used the new ball although it would have been legal for all to have play cd it.
 X canvass of local dispensers of golf balls does not indicate that ex- perience hereabouts is much differ ent. One firm says that the new players buy the lighter ball but the veterans purchase the old ball.
 Val Flood, professional at Shuttle Meadow, who has played and con- structed courses since the days of the old "gutty' ball, still hods to his original opinion that the new ball will sec but a year of life. He did not like the change and says that he is not selling many of the bigger balls.
 Tt is human nature in golf for player to get his thrill out of long drive" he recently said in discussing the 1881 ball. And anything that detracts from that feature of the game is not going to be popular. And the new ball cuts down the distance of the drive of the average player. especially if there is head or cross wind"
 On the other hand, Bob Pryde. daddy of Connecticut golf, is quite reconciled to the bigger sphere. We interviewed him on the subject dur ing the Seniors play at the local course last week and he said that. while he was opposed at first to the change, now he was favorably in clined toward the bigger and better ball.
 His attitude has better than a 5050 chance of being adopted by the herd of golfers. Right now they may not be using the new ball but next spring they may take what is handed them and base their alibs for poor game on the new ball.
 They may do that and the T.. S. G. A. hopes that they will. But Bos- ton Tea Parties and anti-Nolstead rebellions have been colorful side past and present. The contrast next season between the old and the new older may be that English importa- tions may be welcomed Che old ball will continue in use in the British lsles) and the offering of the Ameri- can manufacturers may rot on the shelves of their sales rooms.
 Or, if ye golfer will not pay tre tariff, who knows but what he will buy what he needs for the links from a golf ball bootlegger? Out in Niles, Ohio, is manufacturer who makes golf balls for the trade. Per haps he sees how the wind is blow ing and will continue the use of his old moulds. Golf ball bootlegging may be quite an industry next year.
 Ten years ago it was assumed that John Barleycorn had been properly inferred but his ghost has risen to make trouble. The present golf ball may be ruled out on New Years but

 Here Tonight.

Rogers Recreation Five, New Britain's entry in the State Duckpin Bowling league, were defeated last night by the Casino five in Meriden in a league match. The Meriden out fit scored victories in the first two games by Sula' '''''''7 but New Britain came through to tANe the third game.
 As it was. although the Silver City quintet took two out of three games. New Britain was ahead in total pin fall. New Britain had 1.774 to l. 761 for M1iden.
 Joe Tronosky hit high single with mark of 14S. but John Kloss with his violin cases, was the outstand- ing hero, hitting 3s0 for three strings.
 New Britain has chance to get revenge tonight as the Casino Five rolls at Rogers alleys here. The To- cal team is out to even the score with Jack Neil.s quintet. Plenty of interest is centered in the match. The scores.

BY JIGGER

In just about 90 days the present type of golf ball will be outlawed and tbe larger and lighter ball will officially make it's debut. When it came on the market little mora than a year ago, the golf writers gave it a good break in their col umns and some of them even went so far as to give it a personal trial.
 It was assumed that within a year after it's adoption, and six months before it became compul- sory to play it, most of the golflng public would be using the balloon ball"
 Now, three months to the time that the manufacture of the heavier ball will be discontinued, the situ- ation is far different than the spon- sors of the lighter ball anticipated. In spite of lusty advertisements tell ing the merits of the new ball, and the boosts it has received in papers and magazines, the 1.55 ball is in no great demand. Bobby Jones has spoken or written kind words about it but did not employ it to win his recent titles. About every one of the three million golfers in the land of the free and the home of the hope ful golfers have tried it and revert ed to the old 162 ball.
 It just has not caught on after being on trial for over a year. And soon 1t will be the only legal bali on the market. January first spells the death knell of the lively golf ball, if the makers of golf equIp- ment hold to their agreement with the L. S. Golf association not to continue to manufacture the pres ent ball after the new year arrives.
 There is no great criticism of the new ball by the mass of golfers. They simply ignore it and continue to use the regular ball, There is no talk of mutiny against the change in the size and weight of the golf sphere put over by the ruling golf body. But there is q nation-wid4 , inclination to put off the evil day of making a change from the old to the new ball that has the manufac- turers worried.
 A few weeks back, one Of tha leading makers of high priced balls discontinued the manufacture of the present ball. It was not long be- fore he was writing frantic letters to the pros in an endeavor to buy up the old balls so he could fill his orders for it. And yet it is said on good authority that this same firm was putting out the best l.55 bali on the market.
 At the qualifying round for the L. S. Open, in the .;ew York dis trict, leading pro stated that he had not sold a dozen 1881 balls all the season and that those who had bought them had not clamored for more. At that and another qualify ing round nearby, just one player

TIGERS WILL BE
 WATCHED CLOSELY
Princeton Eleven Holds Spot
 light Of Interest

New York. Oct. 1 P-Of the half-dozen leading eastern college football teams which will open the season on Saturday, none, perhaps, will be watched more closely than Bill Roper's Princeton Tigerc. The Tigers experienced one of the most disastrous seasons in the Tigers foot ball history last year and right now the outlook is anything but prom ising for the campaign that lies just ahead.
 Princeton played seven games last year, lost four, tied one and won two. After beating Amherst TO, the Tigers were bowled over by Brown, 13-12 and Cornell 13-7 and then tied Navy. 1918. A 15-7 de- feat by Chicago and a 200 victory over Lehigh were followed by the final game of the season when Yale battered its way to a 13-0 triumph.
 Exactly the same set of opponents will be faced this year and the Ti- gers look ahead with some trepida- tion. Amherst, the opening oppo- h'iiS oBdiiir VIII NoiliC lo oiiiltl hld- dium with a well drilled eleven that may give Princeton all sorts of trou- ble.
 Of the other members of the one time Big Three" Harvard expects a romp with Vermont and the U. s. Coast Guard academy but Yale IS looking for trouble, and may find It. from Maryland which gave the Ellis an unpleasant jolt in the shape of a 1913 tie last year.
 Penn. with a lighter eleven than usual. should have no uneasy mo- ments with Swarthmore and Navy anticipates no more than a stiff workout with William and Mary. Dick Harlow's Western Maryland outfit, one of the strong teams in the east in 1929, opens against Bal timore which was, overwhelmed. 73-0, by Fordham last Saturday.
 The really epic struggle of the day, however, probably will occur at Morgantown, W. Va, where those bitter rivals of old, Pitt and West Virginia, clash in their annual game. Despite the loss of five mem- bers of last years powerful varsity, Pitt seems to have another strong team but Ira Rodgers Mountaineers are no foe to be taken lightly at any time.
 Outside of these scattered frays, Saturdays schedule again will pro- vide the big teams with chance to score touchdowns with little or no opposition.

$ pc a king of Sports

The state duckpin bowling league Is swinging into real, warm action with Rogers Recreation Five being among the leaders. The local aggre- gation compares favorably with the strongest quintets in the entire league and packers here are already picking the Hardware City crew to come through for a cham pionship.
 Last night, the New Britain team received slight setback at the hands of the Meriden team but to- night presents another opportunity for the locals to even the score and predictions are that the Rogers five will do the same to Meriden as Grant did to Lee on the occasion of their last meeting.
 The married men of Lexington eral shekels tomorrow night when they act as hosts to the single men of the lodge at a dinner. This Is the result of the decisive base ball game staged between the two teams of the lodge last Sunday morning at Willow Brook park. The married men spent all their energy on the game the previous week and the singles took them over the hurdles last Sunday morning.
 At least, used to home cooking and plenty of 1t, the single men can be assured of a good piece de resistance when the married boys step into the role of chefs. A good time will be had by all.
 While the world series is occu- pying the attention of the baseball world as a whole, the local series between Kensington and Johnny Cabay's All Stars is occupying the center of interest locally. Starting next Sunday, the baseball season will start overlapping the football season. Baseball enthusiasts figure that the are still one or two dates on which the, game can be played.
 The Rams, who, apparently are the successors to the Nutmegs in the local professional football field, will open the season Sunday after noon at Willow Brook park against the Thomaston Ponies.
 Wocott, the wild man of the plains on the Nutmeg team last season, will not be with New Britain this year. He has. become a member of the Fitton A. c. eleven of Boston. New Britain's loss with respect to him, is Boston's gain.
 Ralph Buckley also will be among the missing. He has become a regular member of the Stapleton s. I. team. New Britain may hoop up for game with the Stapes again this season. The local team has always furnished good opposi- tion for the Staten Island eleven.
 We have a letter here for the manager of the Pawnee Football , club. It can be secured by calling at the sports desk. We would ask rep resentatives of the team to call dur ing working hours.
 It isn't likely that the New Brit ain High school team will play this coming Saturday unless a last min- ute game is secured. At the present time, no opponent has been signed up.
