Today's Sport Parade
BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent) .sSN

New York, Sept. 18-(UP)-ThE is the time of year when any sports writer worth his salt and hard ur for an idea suddenly realizes the importance of selecting his baseball ''bests'' of the year, beginning with managers and ending with the m- derstudies for the batboys.
 In determining my standout man. ager of the year gave each of the 16 major league bosses careful con- sideration. wrote their names in red chalk on the living room wall Terry's over the goldfish bowl, Me- Carthy's by the stuffed owl Mo- Technics directly over the horn of the gramaphone, FriSch's over the table which holds the stereoptican slide, Cronin's by the whatnot full of sea shells, Vitt's under the pie ture of Jesse James being shot in the back, and so on until all our lovely pieces had managers names by them.
 I scored each solely on his merits Terry got a. mark for beating out the Philies; Mccarthy two for los- ing two successive doubleheaderS to the Browns, no mean feat; Cronin three marks for his optimism in re- ferring to his pitchers as pitchers and so on down the line.
 The final tally showed Oscar Witt the winner, the outstanding man. ager of the year, and if only for the beenfit of Ava Bradley and Cy Slapnicka, will explain why.
 gave him five big marks right off the bat for taking the job as manager of the Indians.
 r He got three more for resisting the temptation to hit his pre-game fungoes toward the outfield instead of toward the Indians dugout. But he didn't hold these three marks very long because, on second thought, I took them away from him for having resisted this tempta- tion. Fungo! Bungo! And another Redskin bites the dust.
 Then, with majestic sweep of my chalk that ruffled the feathers on the owl and made the gold fish swim like mad, I gave Witt 9 merit marks which lifted him to victory.
 I awarded them to him for pure managerial genius, and please don't try to tell me that he hasn't got it.
 His team has led the American league most of the year and today only half a game out of first place is a good bet to win the pennant.
 He has accomplished this despite the fact that his team listens to only half of what he has to say, and obeys only about tenth of his commands. Every other manager in baseball has the complete ear and obedience of his team, while Oscar has to depend upon a few desperate

U.CONN FOOTBALL
 SQUAD UNCERTAIN
Lose of Experienced Men Felt Before Opening
 Coast Guard Game

$torrs, Sept. ,18.-Coach J. o. Christian has had the University of Connecticut football squad prac- ticing since Thursday, Sept. 9th, in 8 program which has been featured by two workouts day, several long scrimmage sessions and many in- dividual and group chalk talks. Weather conditions have been fav- orable to the intensive practices that have been held and the squad is fast rounding into condition so that something can be predicted about the makeup of the team. Coach Christian has been aided in these preseason practice sessions by a full staff of coaches with Don White and Ivan Fuqua confining their efforts to the coaching of the backfiel6; George Van Bibber work ing with the tackles, guards and centers; and John Mariucci working with the ends.
 The loss of Capt. Herb Peterson and Mike Cimino at ends; Walter Ludwinowicz at center; Frank Rob- inson at guard; and Wilfred Roberts at block back necessitated lively shift of the personnel in an at tempt to arrive at the best possible starting lineup.
 Christian has only one experi- enced center from last year in Zig mund Wieczorek of New London, and has converted Al Atwood of East Hartford, tackle: Dan Basile of Torrington; and Shep Lenchek of Stamford, guards, into centers.
 The guard positions are well talk en care of with a neucleus of Co., captain Stanley Papanos of West Hartford, Sol Silverstein of New London and Murray Steinman of Shelton from last years team and . group of five sophomore guards who are pushing the regulars for their positions.
 Stella, Cuddy Look Good
 The veteran tackles, Walter An- drosko of Hartford and William Booth of Bridgeport, both seniors, will receive ample aid from Joseph stella of Oakville, a junior, ana .Jesse Sherwood of Fairfield, a
 
 sophomore. ...
 Al the ends, Christian has three veterans in Everett Paine of East Hartford, Francis Cunningham oi Hartford and Ken Brundage of Storrs with two sophomores, vm Cuddy of Naugatuck and Dick Au- brew of Norwich as the best or the newcomers.
 In the backfield Christy has veterans from last years team In Co-captain Bob Donnelly of Bran. ford, Ed Waltman of Hartford and Charlie Horvath of North Newing- ton at halfback and Fred Mitchell of Salem at full. He has been ex- perimenting win all four of these men as possible blocking backs, and Earl DeCarli of Ellington, fullback of iast years freshman squad, and Ben Esposito of New Haven, e trans fer, have been getting their share Of work at the post.

shouts of advice as he is being pushed out of his teams private meetings. What if the team had listened to him all of the time? It probably would have won the pen- nant by by now, and had a few weeks of leisure in which to cook up a dislike for next years manager. Speaking of the 1941 Cleveland manager, there is a report going around tht despite Vitt,s troubles this year there are many men who want the job. Could this be because of the conscription stipulation that men with dependent children are not going to be called for duty?
 Oh yes, before I forget it my choice of manager of the year gets prize. Last year Joe Mccarthy was the lucky fellow and he got from me request for two good box seats for the opening game of the World Series. If Witt wins the pennant this year he will get even a better prize-a request for three tickets.
 But whether he wins it or not, I would like to say

North End Teams Ln Local Baseball Scramble
American Brass
 Bowlers Strong; Beauty Hits 162

With the exception of high sin- gle of 162 by Beauty of Oakville Pin, the American Brass boWlers were Inonarchs of all they surveyed during Industrial League competi- ton on the Mattatuck alleys last night. Bozo Dente put together three good strings that averaged better than 140 for high three set of 421, while his team took high single and high team scores of 67S and 1874.
 Clark of Chase sandwiched in a weak 95 between strings of l24 and 155; Benny Stokes of Blake-John- son was steady with 125, 12l, 141: Sammy Zaza of American Brass had fair 112 but rolled up to 145 and back to 136; last weeks standout Bill Maistro had two good games of Al and 122 but finished with a far from nifty 92. Eddie Marinelli missed 8 tie for high single with a big 161 in his third game, as he got better as he went along, starting with 115, up to 136 and closed with an average of better than 16 pins per box.
 Three shutouts were recorded by American Brass, Chase and U. s. Rubber who won all three games from Waterbury Tool, Seth Thomas and Oakville Pin. Scores:

CRAFT NEARING
 ERRORLESS SEASON

Fielding averages don't show how much ground a man covers. Some shortstops tumble grounders other shortstops can't even get close enough to touch. Same goes for outfielderS.
 When the outfielder B Harry Craft. one-time Mississippi College all-Southern halfback and broken field ake-hipper. you can be sure he goes as far for ball as any centrefielder alive when he lines up with the Cincinnati Reds on busy afternoon. Harry ranks close to Terry. Moore in the front line of modern hall-hawks.
 So when Harry rounded out his tooth game of the season August 26 without an error of any kind be- sinirching his slate, 1t didn't mean he has been standing on a dime all summer while the doubles and triples fioated by overhead and on every side.
 one of the Centennial Year base-. ball wonders was Terry MoOre's errorIessness all summer. The far- flying St. Louis Redbird likewise goes all directions and gets his hands on everything llunaxlly tskssbie when patrolIing the middle veldt.
 It was September l3, in Terry's lO4th outfielding game of the sea- son, before he was charged with his first misplay of 1899. His final score was 2 errors in 12i games. That's the tall record Craft is sail- ing after as the Redlegs hit the September trail.

PALS CHALLENGE FOR CHANGE TO. .'SHOW UP VETS
Fans Entitled to Game Coz Managers of Parks
 Champs Write
BY HUGO POPFLY

If further negotiations materialize, the local counterpart of an answer to Bill Terry's famous Quizzical boner, "Is Brooklyn still in the Na- tional League?" may be developed should the three time winners of the City Amateur League baseball cham pionship North End Thomas Club decide to put the kids in their place." The '.kids" in this instance are the North End Pals, applicants for a spot in the senior league with the Blessed SacramentS before the i940 season opened locally, who were told, in effect adding two Parks league teams would weaken the league"
 Therefore, the Pals and Sacs had to take it and like 1t, went back to their Public Parks League competi- tion, and wound up in a three game playof which the Pals won and thereby sewed up the Parks loop pennant, If any. for the second time in successive seasons.
 Proof Wanted.
 Now that the Tonlmies have cooled of from the hot air of Birmingham, the Pals feel there is still time for the Tommies to prove that a Parks loop team does not belong on the same field with 8 City League array; which, in all probability, accounts for the follow ing letter and challenge from the North End Pals to the North End Tofnmies:
 September IT, 194O.
 we, the North End Pals, cham pions of the Public Parks League two years in succession, hereby is- sue challenge to the North End Thomas club for a game to decide the Waterbury city title this Sum- day. September 22, at the Hamilton Park athletic field.
 The reason for the above chal- lenge is that the Pals think they are capable of showing the Tom mics that Public Parks League team is just as good as the City Amateur League champs and that a team of our caliber would not weaken as was stated by the City Amateur League officials in the be- ginning of the season.
 In a meeting of the managers Of our league it was voted that the champions of, our league should challenge the champions of the City Amateur League seeing that both leagues were solely using local play CTS.
 In conclusion we feel that the fans of Waterbury are entitled to see this game when arranged for, as without their support, how would our leagues survive?
 Hoping to hear from the man. ager of the Thomas club, we remain, John Carriero, John Lauria, Co-Managers of the North End
 Pals"
