Coach Foley requests all candi-
dates not working to report
promptly at I Monday and con-
tinue to do so thereafter. Sum.
mer practice is held here each
year, and enabless boys who hope
to make the high school squad to
get IN shape for the tough, Cruel
ling season which lies ahead.
Coach Foley does not expect a
heavy team this year, he said to-
day. Many of the candidates are
comparatively light and the ele-
ments of speed and deception will
have to be relied on If the eleven
hopes for success, he says.
Material Not Heavy
The material the past few years
has not been as heavy as in for
mer years, the coach who is a
martinez on the field but thor
oughly affable off it, said. He
pointed out that students seem to
be younger when they enter high
school. Last year there were
seven seniors on the high school
squad who were only 16 years old.
Some of these boys may be large
for their age but in former years
many of the Naugatuck stars were
Is years old when they entered
high school.
Wnen playing football they were
about Is or 10 years old and had
the advanced development physi-
cally and mentally that their age
gives. Coach Foley hopes for a
better year than last year.
To Drill Regardless
So Monday night, whether or
not the heat wave abates, the flu
ture grid stars will be out at
Recreation field preparing to learn
the fundamentals which in most
cases will save the mfrom serious
injuries later in the season and in
some may result in developing
players who will rank high in

With the Yankees in their worst

games, the Tigers are likely to en-
trench themselves firmly in first
place during a long August home
stand.
Eldon Auker, submarine pitcher
from Kansas State, pitched the
Tigers into the lead with an So
triumph over Cleveland, pre-sea-
son pennant favorite. Hank Green
berg drove in three Detroit runs
with a pair of doubles and a single
and Pete Fox sent In two tallies
with a triple.

first place ended when Washing

Heinie Manush led the Senators
attack on Johnny Broaca, hitting
two homers, one with the bases
loaded, to account for five Wash

Broaca who bested Ed Linke to
pitch the Yanks into first place on
May 80. Broaca and Linke faced
each other again but Linke had to
leave the game in the second, in
ming when Jesse Hills line drive
hit him on the head.
The Chicago Cubs continued
their drive for the National League

mines for first place as the teams in

to the third week of action of the
second series.

Benson Faces Champs
AL Maraska leads his Wilson A.
c. against the c. and C. Jrs. first
series winners in the days feature
attraction. The first meeting of
these clubs resulted in a 80 win
for the c. and c. team, who hope
to duplicate this same feat as near
possible as they can. Back in the
midst of the scramble for the Sec
ond series the Italians are once
more displaying plenty of power
and punch. In order to stay in the
running, the Brooklyn team must
win and although the task is not
easy, they hope to. Rollie Benson
will be the Wilson'S choice against
Frank Berardi. Both are former
Wildly stars.
Bears Play Hil1ies
@rhe North End Hillies are out to
handed them by the Washington
Hill Bears. Coach Santopietro of
the Hillies will in all probability
send Ed Koslosky to the slab
against the overworked frankie
Marcellus of the Bears. At present
the Hillies are riding the crest of
victory, and in order to keep their
win streak intact, must dispose of
the Bears, tomorrow. Upon the
shoulders Of such players as Zinno,
Marcellus, King and Marcinelli
rests the Bears hopes of a win.
Injuries Hurt Presidents
Journeying to Waterville park,
fans will see two bitter rivals the
st. Sanislaus and Waterbury A. C.
mines in action. Steve Maleski and
his lads are bound to make it
quite interesting for the Presidents
who are badly hit by injuries, etc.
Roland Leblanc may be the Wa
terbury A. c. choice, as the young
curve ball finger has had three
weeks rest, but the veteran Bob
Wookey may get the call at game
time in case he loks better in the
warmup. Kociezowski is the Saints
choice.
Legion Underdogs
The Hamiltons are favorites to
defeat the lowly American Legion
Club who has lost all nine games
played to date. A drastic change is
scheduled to take pace on the Le-
gion team in an effort to give a
winning combination. Probable
pitchers for this game are Dunn
and Stevenson. The Hamiltons who
threw a scare into the Waterbury
A. c.. last week, depend on such
stickers as Obernier, Dunn, Ma
alrio and others to carry them to
victory.

out. finding him working eight hours per

depot of the Northern Pacific railroad,
Coming to America from foreign

terms. Still only "A years Of age, he is very
likely to become United States senator. 1t
s not beyond the realm Of possibility that
he might eventually be president.
In the face of this example, can anyone
argue that this is no longer the land OF op'
portunity? Can it be said that because one
is born in poverty that he cannot rise to po'
sitions of great Importance? Is the system
under which such opportunities are open
virtually inviting ambitious young men ano
women, necessarily wrong because for
time it becomes deranged, through tht
preediness of some and the foolhardiness o,
others? What system so far tried has OF
