BY HARRY GRAYSON NEA Service Sports Editor

Porter's Cap was sold to Charles s. Howard for $500 at the Sara toga yearling sales in August, 1889, because of a sloping pastern in his rear right leg.
 The pastern is that part of the fin joint.
 To make this more understand able, Porter's Cap had 8 crooked hind leg.
 No one else would take chance on him.
 T like his breeding" remarked Charley Howard, the San Fran cisco automobile dealer, at the moment.
 T like his looks," said Silent Tom Smith, daddy of trainers.
 Smith didn't consider the slop- ing pastern serious, and it wasn't.

CHASE, BRASS
 SCORE SHUTOUTS. IN SIX GAMES
Seth Thomas and Lux Are BIanked-Klnkis Leads
 Chemical, l72, 433

Nothing much of anything hap pened in the Dusty League pin top- bling ranks last night atthe Mat tatuck alleys aside from some slick rolling by Pete Klukis of the Nauga- tuck Chemical outfit who hit 8 172 high single, surrounded 1t with strings of 134 and 127 for 8 nifty 433 set that helped give his team a high game of 683.
 Chase Metal, defending champions and American Brass, master minded by John O'Connor, who have been leading and trailing Chase by a game or so all season to date, are still tied up in 8 knot, both teams scoring cleans sweeps of three straight games last night over good Seth Thomas and Lux Clock teams. The scores of the winners were not particularly impressive, either, but the opposition was worse, which is the story in nutshell.
 Some Good Scores
 Waterbury Manufacturing had three games of SIP or better for an 1885 three game total. Raynor of Chase had one game of Al, as did Jackson of Seth Thomas; D. Nardi of Oakville hit two nice strings of 132 and 149 which he spoiled with a weak no; Galuppo of Ingersoll scored a IA and Martin 140; Scully of B-J hit 148 and Stokes 40 and 133; Larsen of Waterbury Manu- featuring had a fine night with 147, Al and 122for a big 40, Win Bux- ton hit a l47 single but Klukis was tops for Naugy Chemical with 134, 172 and 127 for 433.
