in the catching department Of the

But Coach Charlie Gtlyon Is
hopeful that Wesley TayIhr will
fill the bill. Taylor played the
outfield last year, but is a capable
backstop from all reports.
At any rate, he's making great

Tech, Central
To Meet at
Stadium
By GARRETT WATERS

A high school baseball game at
Griffith Stadium.
That's on the docket today for
the school boys, and it's an event
which already has the teams In
volved interested and excited no
end.
It comes Friday when the Cen.
trail and Tech mines battle in what
will be the opening of the inter.
high series for 1886.
The contest was originally SEIZED.
uled at the Tech stadium. A
couple of weeks ago it was shifted
to the Central stadium, because
the turf at the Tech stadium 10
still in poor condition.
But yesterday, Coach Edward
Foxley, Of Tech, remembered it
was Techs game and that his
school had the SAY" where it
would be played.
All Favor Idea
He hit upon the Griffith sta.
dium idea. Coach Jack Ray, Of
Central, was in accord with this
and advised Foxley it was entirely
acceptable the school
board and principals of the two
schools also were in accord.
Today, Principals Daniel, Of
Tech, and Smith, of Central,
agreed that the site would be ideal
for the game. But, they added,
Clark Griffith's approval must b0
gained before anything definite
was done about the matter.
Griffith was more than glad.
5000, the game is ION" And
everybody is Coaches Jack
Ray and Ed Foxley, who always
have pulled for games at Griffith
Stadium; the principals, who are
glad to have done something in
the right direction again; Clark
Griffith, who has offered the
schools the use of the stadium
many times before, and the
players of the teams, who will get
grand kick out of playing on an
honeSt-togoodneSs big-league ,dia-
mond.
The scheduling of the contest at
the new site is a stepping stone
to better things for the school
boys. At least, it promises to de-
velop as such, since in future
years, next season maybe, the en-
tire interhigh series will be ar
ranged so that every game will be
played there.
Five Games Today
Those in favor of the movement
plan to work on such a develop
ment in order that something
definite may be mapped out before
the 1887 interhigh baseball cam
paign rolls around.
Five games are on the program
today. Western meets G. w. High

Paul Harrison
Shoots For
4th Title

Duckpin'S brightest spotlight
will be focused on Paul Harrison
tonight as he steps on the run
ways Of the Arcadia to shoot with
the champion Highway Engineers
Of the Columbia Heights League
in the opening nights schedule Of
the twentysixth annual Washing
ton City Duckpin Association tour
nament.
Having three times won the
Class A all-events championship,
q feat performed by no other
bowler, Paul today fairly earns
the distinction Of being the Cap
ital's standout tournament roller
of all time.
His performance tonight may
start him off to another notable
victory.
Fine Record
The lanky assistant manager
of the Arcadia, who has been
aiding Monk Fraser to have
every thing ship shape for the
grand opening started on his
record string of wins back in
1929 at the Coliseum. Having
copied the doubles with his Ia
nous partner. Make Rosenberg,
Paul went on to annex the all
events with a count Of 1,12S for
his nine games.
Three years later he again
topped the city's stars with 9
total Of 1,147 at Convention Hall.
In 1884 he swept to his most
notable victory when he estab-
liShed an all-time record with q
nine.game count Of 1920 at Con-
vention Hall.
The Duckpin Record Book and
Guide reveals that only two other
bowlers, have won the event more
than once. Johnny Baum won
in 1918 and then repeated in
1914. Make Rosenberg turned
the trick in 1922 and 1881.
Far outstripping any entry since
the pre-depression days, the spring
meet will have approximately 375
teams, 400 doubles and 600 singles
competing for the "a champion
ships in the six classes.
Singles on Tap
Some 40 singles shooters win
start firing away at the naples
at 7 o'clock followed by the Column"
bia Heights League at 8 O'Clock.
At 10 q host Of doubles viii jam
the alleys. Paul Jarman and Rus
Spilman, Atlantic coast doubles
champions, are among the two
man teams appearing on the first
nights program. Lou PantoS,
whose rolling with the Grand Cen
trail Valet, was a htghlight OF the
District League season, Is the only
Class A singles scheduled.

Lawyers Argue On
 "Dying Statement
Jury in Case of Dr. Petrocelli Charged With Man-
 slaughter, Excused-Last Words No Evidence

Admission of a transcript of evil dence claimed by the state to have been taken at the bedside of Mary Silva, 21, of West Avon, as she lay dying at St. Francis Hospital in Hartford last June was argued by attorneys in superior court this morning before Judge Earnest O.. Simpson. The jury which will de- eide the guilt or innocence of Dr. Gerardo c. Petrocelli, who is charg- ed with manslaughter in the girls death, was excused from the court room all morning and was still in its own room early this afternoon.
 With the trial continuing to proceed at g slow pace and with the state still having numerous witnesses to offer, the trial will undoubtedly last until at least the middle of next week. There seemed little chance early this afternoon that the. state would have much chance to offer more testimony to- day. At o'clock this afternoon, the trial will be adjourned till Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.
 Attorney Edward Mascolo, coun- sel for the accused doctor who is alleged to have performed an ille- gal operation on the Silva girl, is objecting to admission of the trans cript, while it is being claimed as evidence by assistant States Attor-

Wirth will personally supervise the circus when it arrives and in the meanwhile is arranging details for the setting up of the seats in the armOry, planning the location of the ring, where the booths will be located for the usual circus at fractions the pink lemonade, pea nuts, etc. Seats this year will be arranged so that every person will have a clear view of the ring at both afternoon and evening per- formances.
 All profits of the circus go to local charity or to provide assist ance for crippled and needy chill dren whose homes are here.

200 Miles Of Trout
 Streams Are Opened
Daily CreeI Limit Reduced-FlOOds Delay Inaugura- ton in State-CaIicO Bass Season Closed Til July

Hartford, April 16.-With Con- necticuts trout fishing season open ing yesterday the State Board of Fisheries and Game to-day an- nounced a list of over 200 miles of State-leased trout streams opened to fishermen. A new regulation re- ducing the daily creel limit and setting for the first time a season catch limit, applying to state-con- troleld waters only, is also an- nounced.
 While the daily creel limit on other waters is to remain at ten pounds or fifteen trout, the new regulation limits anglers on state controlled waters to five pounds and one trout or ten trout per day and to not more than fifty pounds and one trout per season. The extra lone trout" is intended to provide flexibility in the regulation where by an angler with just short of his legal weight limit may take one additional fish.
 Inauguration Delayed
 Although floods delayed inaugu- ration of preseason stocking until a month later than usual nearly all state-leased streams, with the exception of the Housatonic river, had received quotas of adult trout from the state hatcheries up to Saturday. In addition, 187 streams were stocked last Fall with 248,00O lingering trout ranging up to five inches in length, according to Eben w. Cobb, chief of the Division of Fish Restoration.
 The season for pond and lake fishing also opened Wednesday. Pickerel, wall-eyed pike, perch and lake trout may be taken. Daily catch and length limits announced by the board are: Pickerel and wall eyed pike, 12 inches, 10 fish; perch, 2 inches, 30 fish, and lake trout, 10 inches. All other trout must be 6 inches or more in length.
 The season on black and calico bass remains closed until July 1st.
 Among the state-leased streams opened Wednesday were:
 Hartford county-Salmon brook, east branch and lower section of west branch, Granby; Blackledge river, Marlboro, and Quinnipiac river, Southington.

 The use of designated entrances and exits for approaching and leav- ing streams is required and the crossing of cultivated or open lands without permission of the landown- CT is forbidden. All state-leased streams are designated by posters and violation of regulations in ef- feet thereon calls for revocation of fishing licenses.
