GIRL PITCHER TO HURL FOR DAVIDS
 IN MERIDEN TILT

NgMF~%SA~Na
 Meriden, July 22 - When the House of David Baseball Club crosses bats with the Insilcos at Insilco Stadium in Meriden this afternoon, they will have many attractions to offer the fans. Be- sides Chief Bender, the club has nineteen years old Miss Jackie Michell, the only girl ever in or- ganized baseball and now optioned by Chattanooga of the Southern Association, and she is a decided attraction. Miss Mitchell Is 0 pitt cher and is expected to hurl sev- eral innings against the Silver City array.
 Insilco Stadium in Meriden Is lo- cated about one mile west of the center of the city on the road to Southington and Is an ideal loca- ton for this game. The stadium Is considered one of the finest in the New England states and it boasts of a wonderful turf field with the base paths symetrically rounded.
 The lineup of the House of David team will include Cross. star first sacker, the. Babe Ruth of the club, who batted for .421 last sea- son: Emmer, the greatest second sacker in tndependent DnsoDaiii Scott, shortstop the two latter making one of the fastest double play combinations outside of or- ganized baseball = Anderson. star third baseman is 19 years old and has hair 36 inches long, and there are very few third 'sackers, even in the major leagues that have any, thing on this boy. Holland, left fielder; Le Fluer. center fielder and Yardley in the right garden, make trio of as classy an out field as most any manager would care to have. They are all good hitters and are real flyhawks. Bleiding and Fleming arc two of as sweet catchers as anyone would want on @ ball club, and some snappy action is assured.
 The Pepper. Game" is another added attraction that the House of David is famous for. This game is really a juggling act that has never been duplicated by other teams.
 Big Bob Walsh. son of Big Ed Walsh of White Sox fame, will handle the brunt of the pitching for the Insilcos at 3:30 on Satur- day afternoon.

1 Tn the feature attraction, the leading Watervillc Oilers will clash with the hard-hitting Brooklyn A. c. at { o'clock on the first diamond. with Joe Strokalaitis on the mound for the Bank street contingent to be opposed by either George Blinn or Speed" Conway of Winsted, the latter having been rumored to have beer secured by Waterville in place of Bob Walsh of Meriden, whose eligibility for City league play this season is in the process of settle- ment right now.
 BIinn vs Conway
 With both clubs boosting a num- Der of good batsmen, it is expected that plenty of base hits will bound around the inner and outer works tomorrow as the Brooklyns try to cut down the impressive record hung up by the team that entered the circuit this season, and is ham dled by Glenn Briotti and Hank" Gagain. ST. With Strokaaitis in form, the Waterville runs will be hard earned, Brooklyn followers opine, meanwhile it will be up to Blinn or Conway to hold the Brooklyn bats in check especially in the later innings of the game. if the count is close.
 Certain that his teams climb toward the top will be uninterrupt- ed, Manager Johnny Kerwin has his Tribunes all primed for a con- vincing attack on North End Thomas club pitching in one of the 9 o'clock games on the first diamond. A win by the Tommies will come in the nature of a dis tinct shock, as the north end lads have been playing anything but heads up" baseball while the Tribes are in the middle of win- ming streak that may carry them up to and past the WaterviIle team, if the Brookyns come through. as hoped, for by their rooters.
 Selenske Again
 once more, Kerwin will probably depend upon Earl Selenske to clinch the game for the Tribes, while the Thomas club pitching se- ection will remain uncertain until game time or thereabouts. Bobby Cavanaugh will be seen with the Tribes for the first time.
 In the other 2 o'clock game, the Washington Hills, whom are undis- puted cellar tenants face the hard hitting Sacred Hearts, in what may turn out to be a close or over- time contest. Here's how the boys are hitting the apple:
