They tell us that the Franklin A. C.
of New Haven, will suspend business
. no a_reslllt of their recent fiasco. it
is lamentable that this organization
should be forced to go by the board.
They attempted to give the fans good
sport at poptllnr prices and failed.
Their failure should be taken into
consideration by the fails when theyl

Rival managers are reported to be
trying to come to arrangements for
some game of basketball between the
Norwalk H. S. quintet and the l'astilne'
. team of East Norwalk.
‘ he a real live contest, even though the
teams 'iil'e‘hnrdly matched as 'to age.
size and expé'l‘ionfre. All Norwalk
would let loose to see a contest of
this sort.
Princeton undergrads are expected
to take on considerable confidence as
a result of W. W. Roper’s announce
ment that he will not altogether sever
his connection with the pigskin push-
ers next season. Roper is an invalu-
able man: to Princeton and even a cas-
ual suggestion now and then front
him would serve to inspire confidence,
if nothing more.
Johnnie McGraw is considifiblmt
up because Rube Marqnard wants
more of the filthy incl-e. is be? Well.
it takes nerve to get by these days,
and perhaps Rube may get there yet.
AsIIIIfor taking sides. We opine that the
manager of the Giants knows his book
perhaps better than we and leave the
matter entirely up to him. licy fel-

The football quarks Iare holding
forth again today. Tile result of their
meeting and conferences are being
awaited for on every hand. for much
dependr'tlpon their course at thiscrn-

and Old Well Hook and Ladder Com-

Barney Dreyfuils‘ suggestion of hav-
ing a prohibition clause inserted in
players' contracts brings home vividly
one thought. Alcohol and athletics
are the poorest of companions. This
has been demonstrated time and again
in baseball, as well as ill other sports.
The editor was informed yesterday
that the Mayflowers would get togeth-
er soon and consider baseball dope. it
is understood that this year's team
will be formed independently at the
company. although it will bear its
name. This will givethe team con-
siderable more latitude and as they

BILLIARD NOTES
Young ".lake‘“ Schaeter recently
scored a run or 100 and an average of
10 in a game of 30096iutsnt 18.1
balkline. He has been practicing in
Chicago with Marcus Cation, son of
the late William H. Cotton. These
boys are considered the most promis-
ing of young-billiard players. Some
good judges pronounce Marcus the
superior of “Jake." '
Captain Adrian C. Anson, undaunt-
ed by Calvin Deinarest’s grand average
of nearly 24 in 2,000 points at 18.2

a great drawing card. Consideration
of the All Stars under Captain Reach,
