~ IGHT on the heels OF the an
- nouncement of 10-game spe-
cial match between the North
east Temple team and the Orig
inal Washington Juniors, Bill Wood
came forth last night with the seasons
first head-to-head bowling battle, Henry
Hiser VS.. Hokie Smith.
These two matches, along with John
Blick's Greater Washington Handicap
Sweepstakes and the Meyer Davis Girls
Sweepstakes, will give District bowlerS
plenty to remember November by.
THE Hiser-Smith battle should be a
i pip. Henry led the District League
boWlers with an average OF over 12l
last year for the complete season. This
season Smith, youngster and un-
known until last year, has assumed the
leadership with pace of over 1874.
Hiser was ranked No. by the Wash
incton City Duckpin Association last
Spring, while Smith was given the No.
ranking.

looked upon as the best bowling pros

ball, uncanny accuracy and, most i'm
pOrtant OF all, an Ideal bowling LeIn-
perament, Hokie not only is regarded
as a potential No. ranking pinman.

in the game.
listers average last year was re-

SO was the fact that he was able
to accomplish the feat in spite of ex-
cruciating pains, the after-effects of
an automobile crash.
While many bowlers would have given

for the District League.
The match brings together two of
the steadiest bowlers in the city and
the East.
The first block, Of five games, will
be rolled a week from Saturday at the

n YEW YORK, November 11.-There
are no fixtures In the Brooklyn
Robins lineup. In the eyes
OF Macmillan Canarius, better
known TO the base ball world as Max
Carey.
The new pilot OF the Robins, in his
first conference with newspaper men
since his appointment to succeed Will
bert Robinson, said he would trade any,
body on the club II he thought he
could gain strength
"We've got bunch OF good base
ball players" said Max, but I'll trade
any one OF them in minute II
figure 1t will help our chances. I've
got some trades In mind, but it's
against the rules to discuss them now"
Max denied, however, that he was
looking for Pat Malone and Hack Will
son of the Cubs, saying both were too
big a gamble"
II might take a chance on them at
the waiver price, said Max, but I
wouldn't pay big money for them nor
exchange any Of my stars for them"
Wants Fork handlers.
Carey took some of the boys by sur
prise when he announced he wanted
to strengthen the pitching staff, par
ticularly the southpaw department.
I'VE have some fine right-handers,"
he said, but need a couple of south
paws. There are several rockies who
might fill the bill"
This despite the fact that it was
three southpaws. William Watson Clark,
Joe Shaute and Fred Heimach, who
did most of the winning for the Robins
last season, while the right-handers,
notably Dazzy Vance and Babe Phelps,
were sad disappointments.

n YEW YORK, November 11.-Dur-
M ing and Immediately after the
end Of the American League
base ball season, most Of the
pitching talk concerned Robert Moses
Grove and George Livingston Earn
shaw Of Philadelphia, but the records
show various other pitchers Of the cir
cult had records that were, In thelr
own way, just about as remarkable.
Grove and Earnshaw cleaned up
against about every other team In the
league, a set of miscellaneous RECORDS
which the league statisticians have
compiled show, but the Who's Whose
Cousin" figures also reveal that lew
hurlers from rival clubs could take the
champions over with considerable reg
ularity.
Vernon Gomez, southpaw ace Of the
New York Yankees, won three out OF
four games from Philadelphia, Henry

and Herb Pennock and Ivy Andrews
also put the Yanks on top the one
time they met the champions.

been reorganized and Saturday night
will oppose their first foe of the sea-
son, Red Megaw's Northeast Temple
team.
The Juniors will be meeting what is
regarded as vastly improved team in
Temple. Megaw's team, which was
nosed out by the Pale Drys last week
in sensational battle, has been
strengthened by the addition Of Earl
McPhilomy and Bradley Mandley.
In the lineup of the Original Juniors
Will be the usual array-Paul Harrison,
Eddie Espey, Hokie Smith, Johnny An
'derson and Jack Wolstenholme. These
boys began rolling together two years
ago, opposing only junior teams. COM
prlsing bowlers under 81 years old. Too
fast for that class, the Juniors grad

one defeat by the famous Connecticut
Blue Ribbons, have a clean slate.
Ollie Pacint, Megaw and Ed Blakeney
will be the teammates of McPhilomy
and Mandley.
The first block of five games will be
relied at Temple at 8 o'clock.

having Jack Wolstenholme, Whip
Lltchfleld, Joe Harrison, Make Rcsen-
berg and Joe Pricci, and Swans in
Guiding Boots Hollaran, Dutch Whalley,

 Wheeler was examin-

Mary's hospital but in separate automobiles. Wheeler was examin- ed by officers of the Naugatuck police department who testified that he had been drinking. Later he admitted himself having drunk six glasses of good beer, as he termed it, in Bridgeport earlier in the evening. When first admitted to the hospital Wheeler stated that his companion was Alice McGrath and later denied that he had made such a statement and at first re- fused to tell who his companion was. Upon being informed of her condition and that there was prac- tically no hope for her recovery he gave her name as Miss Holmes and 1t was later discovered that she was Mrs Adeline Higgins. When she was admitted to the hospital she was in severe shock and she was found to be suffering from compound fracture of the skull with hemorrhage of the brain. She never did recover consciousness and died at s:25 a. m. eastern day light saving time, May 4th, 1881 as the result of the injuries re- ceived in the accident.
 I find that said death was caus- ed by compound fracture of the skull with hemorrhage of the brain received when deceased as a pas- senger in the car with Gerald Wheeler was driven against the truck of the Laskas Motor Lines and that said death was caused by

 The evening of May 2nd and early morning of May 3rd were foggy and rainy. A seven and a half ton Mack truck fully loaded and operated by Harry Duffy be- longing to the Laskas Motor Lines of Waterbury was travelling from New York to Waterbury and left Bridgeport about half past ten o'clock on the evening of May 2d. The truck was covered with a heavy canvas tarapulin which came down over back covering the tail board also and was strapped in place under the truck but in such a way that the tail light and reflectors were clearly visible. The truck reached a place on the road near Hillside cemetery on Riverside Drive be- low Naugatuck when the driver Duffy noticed a peculiar noise in the motor. He pulled off the road so that the forward wheels of his truck were entirely off the trav-

eled portion of the highway and the rear wheels on the right side were also off, leaving the double rear wheels on the left side with the overhang of the truck only upon the highway. At that time and at that place there was a slight drizzie but the fog which had been drifting in patches was at that point is straight for a con- siderable distance. was not ob- scured to any great extent by fog but slightly by the drizzling rain. Duffy got out of his truck and with an electric hand torch was standing at the side of his truck when he observed an automobile approaching from the direction of Beacon Falls at a considerable rate of speed. The highway at that point was then wet and slip pery and the course of the ap- preaching automobile would bring 1t against or very close to the truck. Duffy realizing this stepped towards the rear of his vehicle, flashing the electric hand torch as he did so. It was later learned that the approaching car was driven by Gerald Wheeler and 1t did not diminish it's speed until 1t had approached within very short distance of the standing truck and then it skidded so that the right side of the approaching car. which proved to be an Essex coupe, crashed into the rear end of the standing truck, practical ly demolishing the Essex and se- verely injuring Adeline Higgins. the passenger in the Essex car who was sitting on the right side. and rendering both her and the driver Wheeler unconscious.
 There was another automobile close behind the Wheeler car, the operator of which was able to ob- serve and did observe through the windshield and rear window of the Wheeler car the signals of the driver Duffy together with the truck lights so that this car pulled safely and easily to the other side of the road, avoiding the accident and stopped. The operator of this car in addition to seeing the sig nal, heard the shout of the driver Duffy warning the operator of the Essex coupe. Both Wheeler and Mrs Higgins were taken to St
