saying that he understood that the

it prevented immediate accem to the

Attorney Quinlan explained that he
didn't question the legality of the Com-

enact a reasonable and Judicial ordi-

think that it was within the power of
the court to determine whether the
ordinance enacted was reasonable or
discriminatory. He stated that he had
witnesses who would support the
statement that the ordinance was un-
reasonable and that immediately after

that a good deal of the businem in the

One of the most interesting cases of
the morning session of the United
States District Court in New Haven.
yesterday. was that of Lorenz Jones
of New York. arrested in Stamford by
Policeman Frank Parker on July 8.
with property stolen from a freight
car at Rowayton.
Jones had in his automobile when
arrested five or six cartons of stolen
slippers and ’a roll of cloth. He
claimed that he had been stopped by
a stranger who asked him to take the
cartons to a New York address.
The goods were in transit from
Hartford to Pennsylvania when
stolen.
Jones has been in Bridgeport in de-
fault of 82.500 bonds. He pleaded
guilty to having stolen goods in his
posseuion. so Judge Edwin S. Thomas
sentenced him to 90 days in jail. dat-
ing from July 8. The sentence really
freed him. as yesterday was the end
of the 90 days. ‘ .

NEW YORK. Sept. 80.——The mathe-
matical uncertainty in the American
league pennant race existed today.
with but two games left on the
schedules of each of the contenders.
New York and\8t. Louis.
Inability of Yanks for the second
straight day to hit the offerings of a
former teammate this time Jack
Quinn cost them another reverse yes-
terday at’ the hands of the Red Sox .1
to 0. and a chance to clinch the cham-
pionship. The Browns meanwhile
clung to the possibility that they may
tie the leaders and thus necessitate a
play off series by defeating the Chi-
cago White Box- 3 to 2. .
One victory for the Yanks or a. dc-
feat for the Browns will settle the
race.‘ In order to obtain title. the
Browns must win today and tomorrow
from the Red Sox. while the Yanks
lose to Boston today and to Washing—
ton tomorrow. .
Although favored by all odds to
emerge the victors. the Yanks have
caused something boardering on ap-
prehension among their followers by a
sudden slump in hitting. with the pen-
nant goal in light. In the last three
games-one with Cleveland and two
with Boston—the team has scoerd one
run and collected fifteen hits off Uhle.
Collins and Quinn. All three defects
were chalked up against the club’s
twirling aces Shawkey and Bush. .
Giant followers meanwhile were
concerned over Frank Frisch and
Dave Bancroft. infield bulwarks. who
sustained sprained ankles in an exhi-
bition game in .Baltimore. Neither
mishap. however. was said to be ser-
ious. although it is likely that Ban—
croft .will refrain from tows chances
by remaining on the side lines and to-
morrow. The National League cham-
pions are scheduled for a double head-
er today with the Boston Braves.

NEW YORK. Sept. 30,—Ncw comes
the time when some baseball players
won’t. regret having received a sheep-
skin and a college degree. A huge
melon, of greater, circumference than
any Alabama. cotton picker ever
dreamed. is about to be divided and
some are going to think that. the carv.
ing knife slipped unless they employ
the. three R’s. .
From what once seemed a sample
problem of division. the task of ap-
portioning to all who get a, share has
expanded into a headache. No more
will the receipient of a world series
check rush with it down to the bank
to hear the coins jingle :n his pocket;
he‘ll employ a certified accountant to
certify that his prooent is the per
centage that it. should be.
The easiest way to figure
on the basis of $100..
The first portion goes to the sec—
retary-treasurer of the National Com-
missioner’s 011109, to help pay the sal‘
it out is

That's fifteen per cent. or 815 of

that's salted. the players come in.
"Sixty per cent. of theta-ion, do from

law reads. “shall form a fund for. the
players of the contesting teams and
ot the teanh finishing second and
third in their respective pennv ant ra—
ces. which shall be proportioned and
disbursed by the secretary-treasurer.
That is. sixty per cent of the bal—
ance of $85. which is 351. Or the
$51. 76 per cent goes to the partici-
pants in the world series. htat is
$38.25 goes to both teams. at this
amount. sixty per cent. or $22.95 goes
to the winning club and the 40 'per
cent. or 815.30 to the losing club.
The other :6 per cent. of the play
ers’ pool. which on the $100 basis
would be $12.75. goes to the four
clubs which finish second and third in
their respective leagues. Of this
amount sixty per cent. is paid to mem-
bers of the two teams finishing
second, and the other forty per cent.
to the two tea finishing. third.
After all the players are paid. the
remainder of the gross receipts go to
the two clubs participating in the
world series, to Be divided equally be-
tween thel'n. ’ _
Regardless of how many games are
played the palyers' pool is drawn only
from the first four games. thus af-
fording them an incentive. if they
needed it. to win the title in stralght
victories if they can. This arrange-
ment precludes the possibility of the
men on the field prolonging the series
