Refuses 10 Aid Fired" Umpire.
BRASSCOS BEAT
 CIV CLUB 10 TO I TO WIN SERIES

When a semi-pro baseball team as good as the Chance-Vought Fly CTS of Stratford, with a pitcher as good as John Lefty) Pezzulo has proved himself most of the season, gets itself five runs in the first inning, then blows" that lead in the same inning and eventually loses the game by 10-7 score, the team that beats them must have something on the ball" be- sides gloves.
 All of which is a rather round- about way of informing all and sundry that the Fred Davi Brass cos, scheduled to meet the famed New York Black Yankees Satur- day night and the Boston Braves of the National league next Thurs day, both games at the Municipal Stadium, is quite a collection of baseball talent what with all the hard luck MT. Davi had getting under way this season.
 Last night, the Chance-Vought Flyers with Pezzulo on the mound, started the third game of the Brass co series, as if the visitors were going to win going away. Each club had won game. No less than five runs trickled across the plate in the first inning; and, when left handed Pezzulo gets five runs to work on" in the very first inning he's about as easy to beat as the Red Sox Dave (Boo) Ferriss. So, he got his five runs right away quick, but, before the inning was over, the Brasscos had five to match it and herewith was free-scoring game that went to our side when the Brasscos got two runs in the sixth, two more in the eighth while holding the Stratford club scoreless for the last four in- nings of the game.
 To date, the Brasscos have played 22, won IS, lost 4 games.
 Five Each
 A rough idea of that ten-run first inning follows: CIV: Caginel- 10 up, doubles to right. Michaels walked, Metoski sacrificed both men to second and third. Masi struck out. Baker singled, scoring Cagainello and Michaels. Pepper three -baggered to far center field, scoring Baker. Robinson reached on a walk, Noonan doubled scoring Pepper. Robinson scored on an er- ror-Five runs, four hits, an error. Brasscos; Palotti, first man up, wnacked a two-bagger to left field. DeVito worked Pezzulo for a base on-balls. Piestrak singled, Palotti scoring, followed by DeVito when DeLucia's infield hit was juggled badly. Piestrak scored on Pieurek's long fly ball to center field. Down. CT homered to center field-Five runs, three hits, one error.
 Nip And Tuck
 Chance-Vought Flyers went ahead again in the second with one run and GA edge, on a miscue and wild pitch; but the BraSScos were all even again in the third inning as Whitey Pieurek singled again and was scored by Hank Gagain's lusty three-base knock. In the sixth, BrasscoS got two, repeated in the eighth while Ted Grabeck held the visitors safe after the fifth; Baker, Pepper and Noonan getting two hits each of the 9 allowed the losers. Roystel finished up for Peg zuio, who was beaten for the sec- ond time in his last three local appearances. Score:

 washington. Aug. ie-(Ur) The Major League meeting to work out plans for returning veterans became involved today in an unexpected complication, the protest of an tiuls pire, who charges he was fired ae- cause he sought to get salary in-. creases for his associates. -- The umpire, Ernie Stewart, young-, est arbiter in the American League, said he held conferences with baser bah commissioner 4. D. (Happyl handler over 'dissatisfaction' among umpires over salaries paid. A
 Chandler, he said, suggested that he make survey of salaries and report back to him.
 League president William Har- 1. ridge found out about his ifivestiga-' : ton, Stewart said, and ordered him i, dismissed. <.
 Tt made him mad and he fired { me-" Stewart said. "TIe said l had been discharged for causing disser-- sion and being disloyal.
 No Help From Happy ys... Chandler said that "the case isr something that Harridge will have to decide under baseball rules" V ETarridge was indignant. s
 "If that's the statement he wants to make public then that's perfect l with me-" Harridge said. He indicat- ed he would make a statement fop < the league later.
 Meanwhile, the post-war comniit-d i tee of Major and Minor League ofs ficials recommended that players now in military service be eligible to play in the World Series If their ? team wins the pennant, provided they return between now and the end of the regular season. The rec ommendation will be submitted to full vote of the Major and Minor Leagues for adoption by resolution, which is expected without dissent. ,
 Chandler said the question of whether the World Series will be played wasn't brought up because It was a foregone conclusion that such was the case.
 Must Be
 we simply are proceeding on the : assumption that the World Series will be played" he said.
 The recommendations regarding the World Series also will apply to the post-season Minor league play; offs. a-ss.,
 Representing tne American league at the meeting were Tom Yawkey, of Boston, Clark Griffith of Wash, , ington and Benjamin Fiery of De- t-oit, the league attorney. s..
 The National League representa- tives were Warren Giles of Cincif- natl, Branch Hickey of Brooklyn. Sam Breadon of St. Louis and Horace Stoneham of New York. @
 Representing the Minor Leagues were Earl Mann of the Southern Association, Charles Graham of the Pacific coast league. George Traut- man of the American Association. Tommy Richardson of the Eastern League. A. H. Ehlers of the Inter- state League and Frank Lawrence of the Piedmont League.
 Harridge, President Ford Prick or the National League and Leslie O'Connor, assistant to Chandler, al-..s so attended. "

 Zugspitz, Germany, Aug. 16.- s stUP)- Sgt. George T. Muslin of Memphis, Tenn, a bronzed, middle sized brown-haired lad, is with Company 70" of the 508th military police battalion of the Third Army. He is very sane fellow and he knows his Memphis friends will not believe him when he comes home and says T also did some skiing in mid- d-August."
 But fortunately, five touring sports INriters from the United States saw Muslin and more than 40 other .. HIS cavorting on the snow in mid August "dog days" and are willing 1 to swear to it on a stack of Bibles as high as the Zugspitz itself. This l1nountain is a peak in the Bavarian Alps which scars to 9,7S0 feet, the highest in Germany.
 The sports writers were stand i ing on the sundeck of the Schnee- l fcrnerhaus, a weathere wooden ho- { tel on the mountainside 1,500 feet i below the Zugspitz summit. The !! skiers seemed like black specks 1 zooning, tumbling and stopping on ] ahe three square mile expanse of ! perpetual snow on the adjacent 1 slope.
 one speck left the snow and came 1 trudging up the path to the ski house elevation of the Schneefern- l haus. The writers ran down to meet him and he proved to be Muslin with his skis over his shoul- der. a stick in his hand and wear ing heavy skishoes.
 aAre you the hotel professional" :" we asked him. "You have been l fumbling around like an expert"
 Ambitious
 Nuts to you" Muslin replied. T Gm an all-America amateur. I'm from Tennessee and never saw SO much snow before. I've never been on skis before but have been having the time of my life and l could conquer these slick sticks with couple more practices so could travel on my skis instead of my backsides."
 Muslin explained that he had
