KVASNIEWSKIOR WOOD TO PITCH
 AGAINST LOCALS
College Stars at Municip Stadium; CappanO, Scul-
 Iy for B. A. c. Mound

The Camp DeYens Baseball team of Aver, massachusetts,, featuring many former college stars of this vi- cinity, will invade the Municipal Stadium tomorrow afternoon and train its big guns on the Brooklyn A. C.. team of the city amateur league, the team that. will represent Waterbury in the National Amateur Baseball Tournament which opens. in Youngstown, Ohio, one week from today. The Army Doys will have several Connecticut and Massachu- sets stars in the lineup, most of whom were standouts on College teams during the past few years. Big Steve Wood, the former Colgate strongboy, who shouldered most of the Brooklyn A. 0. pitching burden all year, will be on hand again to- morrow but this time he vii lbe in a different uniform as he will prob- ably do the chucking for the sold- dierS. It may be remembered that big Steve is the son of the former Boston Red Sox standout, Joe Wood, a few decades back. Tn the event that Steve doesn't get the call from the soldier, management, another ace right handler, Joe Qwasniewski of New Milford, the former Provi- dence College star who pitched for the Tribunes of the City League at the National Amateur Tournament held in Pittsburgh in 1888, the last year the Tribes made the rtip. Joe won the only game he started in the tourney that year and incidentally, the only game won by the lower Baldwin Street combine that year. No matter who does the pitching for the Fort DevenS outfit, 1t is apparent that Ray Rich, New Haven product, will do the catching. Ray is a former Hillhouse High school all round athlete and a former basket ball, footbal land baseball star at NY.U. The soldiers will have another Brooklyn A. c. performer at the initial sack in the other half of the Wood brother act, with South- paw Bobby holding down the post. Bobby has been the fielding sensa- ton of the Brooks this year, and although he is 8 light hitter, he has hit the longest home run at the Stadium this year. At second base will be Joe zebelick of Westfeld, Mass, a former basketball and base ball star at Bay Path Institute three years ago.
 Good Field, No Hit
 George Hanna, one of the great est athletes ever to emerge from the halls of Dartmouth college, will be seen at the shortstop position. George is one of the flashiest field CTS in the east and only his none- too-robust batting average keeps him out of the major leagues. At third base, the soldier boys are we'll fortified in Donald Graham, the captain of the 1e39 team at Rhode Island State who played with the Manchester team of the New Eng land league this past summer. Ed the Boston Red Sox of the Amer ican league, will be seen in left field. Ed will join the Red Sox upon his release from the army. John Pepper" Martin, (not to be confused with the Wild Horse of the Osage, the 1881 world series hero, now managing the Sacra- mento Solons of the Pacific Coast league), another former Rhode Is- land State star, will be in center with Red Gendon, the former Seton Hall star in right. On the reserve list the soldiers have Nick Pyrch, former New Haven Pros catcher, Bob Carverly of Dover, New Hamp- shire, and Alex Jablonowski, broth- CT of Pete Appleton of the Chicago White Sox, along with host of others.
 New Pitchers
 The Brooklyn A. O., realizing that the soldiers have powerful array have gone out and acquired the services of Roger Cappano, the sen- sational Prep school star who won two ball games for the Tommies in Birmingham last year; Bill ScuIy. who pitched for the Thomaston Le- zion this year, to go along with Johnny Hardinburgh, Joey Jay and Roy Johnson. The Brooks will use the same lineup that they used . week ago when they beat the Tom mics, but they will have to have 8 new first baseman with Bobby Wood playing against them.
 The three City league uIIpires will work. the tilt with the proceeds going over to the "On to Youngs- town Drice!" The game is slated to get under way promptly at 3 p. m.
