OFF THE Blackboard
by VERN BOxELL,

IN less t an month, Mr.. Ihsaas
Il youngsters will be out there play
ing for keeps. Which means that
your correspondent is due to lose
some sleep for the next two weeks.
AS if it mattered to Mr.. Ihsaa,
or any Of his pals, ole Blackboard
is going to get the Hoosier lads and
laSsieS all prepared by naming his
1882 champion on Feb. Is. If it
had to be done today, about the
only thing your correspondent could
do would be to deplore the awful
muddle, and let it go at that. But
many things can happen in two
weeks. Maybe they will. Back

Decatur county tourney last week.
st. Paul set some kind of record in
the final game with WestpOrt, which the
Floyd bow. won in walk. 46 to 8. In
the first few minutes of play, St. Paul
took six shots and made One-half dozen
field goals Even in Newcastle they would
say that was very good.

Stove League Chatter
BY EDDIE ASH

VOU are not likely to hear much
Il about the salaries paid the
Philadelphia Athletics this wear.
Papa Connie Mack is believed to
have made several drastic reduc-
lions, but advised the players to
keep the subject of money matters
to themselves and they would be
better off. Joe Boley, veteran short
stop, made the only public squawk
regarding a cut in pay and not
many hours after his broadcast it
was announced he had been sold to
Cleveland. They don't tarry long
under the Mackmen banner when
they disobey the kindly, ancient
master.
Boley is expected to help Cleveland at
that, providing he is able to regain old
form. He is dandy fielder and highly
efficient on double plays. starting nd
pivoting. Never much of a batter. how
ever. Roger Pcckinpaugh. Cleveland
manager. seems to think the former In
annapolis short stop. Eddie Montague. is
destined to make the grade this year
Erratic play has held back Eddie on other
trials with Cleveland. but for some -ea-
son Pilot Peck believes the Californian
is sure to come through, in 1892 In
dianaDOlis friends of Eddie hope Peck
is right. At anv rate. with BoIev on
hand, Montague will have the benefit of
sage advice.

 OPENS JUNE 25

Hartford, June 14-Preliminary steps towards a permanent organ ization of a circuit of race tracks in central Connecticut were taken at dinner and meeting In the Ken ey park Riding school last night. The newly constructed Bristol track, the track at Middletown and Cherry park. at Avon were rep resented.
 John A. Philgard presided. The proposition for the forming Of an association was explained by Col M. w. Delaney. who owns the Avon twice around. Delaney's proposal was greeted with enthusiasm but the delegates from Bristol and Middletown requested time to re- port to their associates the details of the proposition.
 It was agreed that the name or the association. if organized. would be the Nutmeg circuit. It was also agreed that races would be held every Saturday afternoon, each track having one date each month. It was suggested that Sage park be a member of the association.
 Two meetings are already sched- uled for tracks which. were repre- sented last night. The Bristol track Is to open on June 25 with a race meeting and Middletown has a meeting booked for July 9. Permanent organization of the circuit is expected before the end of June.

The Yankees came down to the limit several days ago by releas- ing Jack Saitzgaver to their New ark farm.
 However, the other Metropolitan outfit, the Brooklyn Dodgers, still has 26 players on the active list. necessitating the removal of three. Bruce Caldwell, former Yale foot ball star, and infielder Fresco Thompson are slated to go, but no one is certain of the third man.
 Weak Spots
 The Giants need another pitcher and might trade on a favorable of- fer. and Brooklyn would snap at a good first baseman. but ndne seems to be wandering around loose.
 The trade winds could blow up a nice furry in the American circuit, where the Yankees seem to be the only. contented outfit. Philadel- phia needs pitching strength. and Washington could use n couple Of good hitters. Cleveland has fnfield troubles.
 Boston's Red Sox made their third important trade in week yesterday when they sent outfielder' Earl Webb to Detroit in exchange for Dale Alexander. first bascman, and Roy Johnson, outfielder.
