"OPENING OF

Week—Teams 0n Field
Ready To Play.
The opening of the
Connecticut semi-pro
New York-
lcuguu was
postponed yesterday because of the
rain. All the teams were on the
hold ready to start when the skies
opened up and a steady ruin flooded
the diamonds. ’
A meeting or the directors of the
league will he held in Dunbury io-
niglet at which link a plan wil be
discusscd to set the schedule back
one week. This will place the open-
ing games on the name llcids as yes-
teday. It. is believed that this idea
is 'i'avornble to all clubs. The open~
ing of the league season was spoil-
cd by the rain and rather than start
the schedule with the second game
on the list the directors and officers
will discuss the advisability of post-
postponing the contests.
A large number of fans accom-
named the NOHHIIR club to rough-
kcopslc. 'lhe Nuruaiks left here
with their busscs and a. large dele-
gation of roqtcrs. There was no
sign of rain until 1 p’clock. The
Nor-walks reached Red Sox park
and after waiting for a short time
in hopes that the rain would stop.
the game was called off.
The sa‘me story was true in tho
othet'.,narks. The Brewster team
arrived at cm field. Wilton. and
was ready 0 play. There was a
large crowd of fans on hand. The
rain started in at 2:45 and continued
for the rest of the afternoon. The
Danbury-Stamford game also was
called off.
The team: now are forced to
start the season off on the wrong
side of the ledger. All the players
had to be paid and this was a big
expense to the clubs. The Norwalk
team made the longest trip for
nothing as they cohpieted a three-
4-
The meeting tonight will decide
the schedule question for the teams.
There are noI other big business
(matters to come up before the
meeting. As the clubs are agreed to
start the season off. next week. it is
expected that there will be little
dIMCulty encountered in putting OR
the. schedule a week.

Coleman Charnok tied the mound
for the Green and White. He was
touched for 13 hits. Charnok fanned
eight men. With better support the
game would have been much c10srr.
The same old story of earned runs
tells the tale. The batting of
Freddie Hart again was the out-
standing feature of the local attack.
Hart was the only Norwaik planer
to make more than one hit. Iic
crashed out a pair of doubles and a
single.
