WILEY A CLOSE / WINNER OVER
 ANSONIA NINE
New Pitcher Wins for Wildcats Crosby Loses
 Tech TrOunced

Tn three baseball games out ol the city, Wilby was the only local high school nine to bring home the bacon" when the Wildcat squad defeated the Ansonia Lavenders by the smallest of margins 3 to 2, one run being walked in during the opening inning.
 A big seven run fifth inning cost Crosby an 8 to 6 game ct Water town as the Indians won out, Frank Meyers giving Crosby but eight hits and sending back IS batterS on strikes.
 Leavenworth went to Torrington, after pinntng back the collective ears of Crosby and Wilby in local games and was branded with 23 to 2 setback. It must have been quite painful for Coach Bill Tracy to watch Torrington score no less than Il runs in the third inning.
 Easy Win
 Naugatuck, on its home field, had a big fourth inning, when 1t scored six runs and coasted thereafter to an eventual g to win over Gilbert of Winsted. Ace Durette held Gil- bert to seven bingles while Charley Fcgarty hit a home run for Naugy in the fourth that scored three runs.
 Tn two days, Litchfield high lost two games, one of them g tight 3-2 affair with New Milford in which Curtis held Litchfield batters to two hits. Watertown won @ 5.2 game Tuesday though held to three hits by Hladick.
 In the FOggia
 Tn the Wilby- -Ansonia game, the oddity of five successive bases on balls was presented as Foggia could not find the plate as Buckley, Car roll, Sizer, Courtney and Pandolfo walked causing two runs forced in and another when @ wild pitch was made. Healy, relieving Foggia, pitched much better ball, allowing bxut four hits in eight innings, sizer and Garrity getting four of them. Wilby presented new pitch- CT, Peterson, who did very well with six strikeouts and but one walk, spreading out nine hits. Score:

Shifting Service Athletes Around Not Simple; Army and Navy Are Trying to Win War, Not Base-
 ball, Football Games or Leg on Cup

Great Lakes, IA, 4.::.n a:--ss eess.-It is not as simple to shift service ath- leteg around as some people seem to suspect.
 The Army and Navy are trying to win O world war, not baseball and football games or a leg on some sort of Q cup.
 Lieut.. Mickey Cochrane has . xnther accomplished baseball club ct the Great Lakes Naval Station, and you already hear about the tre- mendous football team this base will have next fall.
 It ig reported that Fritz Crisler viii give up his job at Michigan to coach it, but here you learn that the Bureau of Navigation has not yet considered the spin specialists implication for a commission.
 George McAfee of the Chicago Bears, Bruce Smith of Minnesota, Paul G0per of Northwestern and Harvey McCuIlom, Tulane's huge tackle, have been mentioned in con- mectiOn with Great Lakes football.
 MeAfee Is at Norfolk, and ath- letlc OfFlcers here doubt that they'll ever see the fleet Duke. Smith is not at Great Lakes. Soper Is an eEi- sign and officers will not play on the Great Lakes team. McCuliom Isn't even in the Navy.
 Every training station would like ko have Bob Teller on it's baseball team, but nobody ct Great Lakes will believe this base has the Iowa farm boy until he shows Up at the main gate with his orders. Teller t pitehing for Norfolk.

Brassie Shot of 2SO Yards Through Narrow Mouth
 of Green Is Woods Biggest Thrill
BY CRAIG WOOD National Open Champion

My greatest shot was made at Spring Mill in Philadelphia during the 1889 National Open,
 It was made on the 18th hole the 72nd of the tournament, After a great drive, was faced with . bFassie of some 260 yards to a very narrow opening to the green, which probably did not measure more than i6 yards.
 This distance was so great that I could not play cary shot to the green, ! had to play short to roll through the opening, needed a four to tie Byron Nelson at 2e4,
 After waiting Ib minutes for the er0Wd to clear, ' played . straight hFasgle shot, which went directly through the center 0f this naFF0R opening t0 the green and rolled lE feet short Of the cup.

BrOOksides Lose Lead and Championship When
 Shut Out

When Brooklyn Dairy bowling team of the Mercantile League was unable to win even of three game; on the final night of competition though 1t rolled a 6O9 final contest that was n.g. by four points, the l942 alley honors for the popular pin circuit rolling weekly at the Sena drives went to Verriker Paint ters, clean sweep winners over the Mohican Markets last night includ- ing Q second game won by two pins
 The league finish this year was one of the most exciting in the league history.
 By losing three games to the Metropolitan, Brookfield skidded all the way to third place in the final standing, though Red Roche had e big 4l9, Civitate Q fair S59 while Frank Thompson could do no better than 339. A real good final game by either Thompson or Whalen would have made e great deal of difference in the final out come.
 Big Bill Clicks
 Verrikers rolled into the charn- pionship in championship style, winning all three games, and with It's captain and packer in the lead, Big Bill Verriker starting with 9 whopping l4O, then a weak 10i end a fine finishing 122 for a 36S total or average of 121 per game, which helped the Painters Shellac the Mo- hicans with consunmate ease.
 Tuesday night of next week, thA lads, champs and chumpS will meet at Pasquale Browns west end es- tablishment for the leagues annual eating and oratorical contest.
 Another oddity of the last night competition, was the fact that Brookside had two of its three games better than 600, yet lost all three of them to the Metros, whose Jimmy Barber was especially hot with strings of 1S5, IS land l3l for a 407.
 Jacewicz of Mohican had a high single of 15S, but Red Roche was tops individually with his 4l9 on a team that lost all three games.
 Metros 8S0 and 1922 was best game and pinfall but the team has to be satisfied with second place in the final standing as follows:

Sprague And Chase Share Gram m ar
 Baseball Lead

Waterville's Sprague school and the Chase team from the east end continued to share the top spot ot the Minor division, Grammar school baseball league after yesterdays games in which Chase took 6 5-3 decision from Kingsbury and Sprague won an Il to 2 contest from Woodrow Wilson.
 Maloney, on five-hit pitching by Baresi won the tighteSt game oi the day, Q ' to 6 decision over East Farms while Hendricken waltzed tC 8 14-3 nod over Anderson in a game that saw l2 errors scored, eight by the losers.
 All at Once
 One of the outstanding features of the games, was in the Sprague- Wilson game, in which the losers got seven runs in the second iI1- ming, and then stopped scoring for the remainder of the game as Sprague, starting with three runs in the first and second, went on to win II to 2 with a four run final inning, that led them to victory go- ing away.
 Bunker Hill tried hard against Hopeville, scoring two runs in the last inning. but finished a 6-5 loser to the South Waterbury toys, whose MortiS held the Hills to four hits.
 Iannacone's homer with one on in the third, provided the margin for Maloney over the East Farms array, coached by J. B. Burns.
 Smiths slugging for Hendr'cken bordered on the sensational when he hit a three-bagger, two doubles and single in the IA to 3 game Nine runs in the sixth settled the game.
