THE FAIR RAILROADS ON PARAOK LON G ISLAND RAI L ROAD Sports Spotlight Cutchogue is certainly the mystery team of the North Shore League this season. After losing a double header to Southold a week ago Sunday, at which time their playing wasn't much to write home about, they come right back to defeat Mattituck 4 to 1. Harry Walte, who was \shelled\ from the mound by Southold in the opeining game of the doubleheader, held Matti- tuck to five hits and was in complete control of the situation over the entire distance. Oillis and Demchiik, who di- vided the pitching duties for Matti- tuck, proved easy marks for the Cut- chogue b a t t e r s . Cutchogue is now tied for second place with Riverhead while Mattituck, which held such a commanding lead at the beginning of the season, has dropped back to the fifth bracket. Shelter Island came to life last Sun- day to win a 5 to 3 victory over Riv- erhead. It was the first game that the Island boys had won since June 11th. The triumph was certainly wel- comed by the Shelter Island fans af- ter their long wait. Southold Wins On Marty Shipuleski's Three Hit Pitching Home Team Tied With Greenport for League Lead WORLD'S FAIR By CHET MOHR A WEEK IN REVIEW The announcement on Monday that the Fair will reduce its Saturday and Sunday admission price to 50c remains the outstanding news of the week up to the time this Is written (Thursday). The resignations of George McAneny, former member of the executive com- mittee, and Perley Boone, who was In charge of the Fair publicity, followed closely on the heels of the first an- nouncement. Walter S. Glflord and Leo Casey will take over their positions, respectively.

Phone 614 Our hats off to Umpire Matthews, who stepped out In the center of the diamond in the sixth inning of the Oreenport-Southold game last Sunday and announced that Greenport had protested the game because he had changed his decision, which he has a perfect right to do after he found he was wrong and was willing to ad- mit It. No matter If he was wrong on his decision, the fact that he was will- ing to admit he was wrong and stand by his guns emphasizes the point that he Is the best arbitrator In the North Shore League. This writer can't see how the protest based on an umpire's decision can possibly stand. There Is one thing that is certain, that the de- cision had no bearing on the outcome of the game. It has gotten to the point now that every game that Southold plays and wins the losing team pro- tests. Oh, well, such is life. Iscorporated 1838 Suffolk Co. Mutual Insurance Co. (FntE).

IRVma FANNINO Secretary We certainly hope that the writer who gave Meehan such a \riding\ in a Riverhead paper last week gained a lot of satisfaction, because to us it was Just another case of a \sorehead\ taking advantage of the good nature of an editor to relieve his feellng.s We know It wasn't any member of the Cutchogue team or any one on the Managerial Board because they just don't do things that way. As far as \Chick\ Meehan is concerned, he Is a prep school graduate who has never played organized baseball and Is not signed up by anyone that we know of. He is just a regular fellow who is will- ing to \throw sacks of potatoes around\ during his vacation and who just loves to play baseball. His bat- ting average at this time Is .197 and I don't think the Giants or Yankees would be Interested in those figures. Represented locally by Ralph a. Duvall, Shelter Island Harry H.

The team gave Marty airtight support, playing errorless ball and turning In several fielding gems to cut off bids for base hits. Marty retired the first twelve men to face him but Charlie Goldsmith op- ened the top of the fifth with a clean single over second. Cooper struck out but Bud Goldsmith came through with a vicious three-base smash between left and center to send brother Charlie across, the first G r e e n p o r t tally. Greenport then worked the \squeeze with Quinn laying down a perfect bunt to allow Bud Goldsmith to score. This was the final run for the visitors. Conklin singled in the sixth but was left stranded, the only Greenport run- ner left on base. Qulnn was given a base on balls In the eighth, the only one allowed by the Southold hurler, but was quickly snuffed out on a per- fect throw from Ostroskl to Shipuleski at second on an attempted steal. Marty had a world of speed and his curve was breaking sharply, with the result that ten of Greenport's potential hit- ters went down swinging Southold lost no time In getting in the scoring column. Conrad, the first man up in the opening inning, singled. Shipuleski went all the way to second when Stanllaus, the Greenport short stop threw wild to first, Coiurad ad- vancing to third. Joe Ostroskl scored both men on a clean single. This ended the rally for this inning for Os- troskl was caught off second in a double play when Jimmle Gagen lined out to Charlie Goldsmith. With the score tied at two all go- ing Into the last half of the sixth, Grattan filed out to right field but Ga- gen, Healing and Danny Shipuleski singled In succession to load the bases. With Meehan at bat, Southold worked the \squeeze Gagen and Healing scor- ing. In the confusion, Meehan was safe at first on a fielder's choice, D. Shipuleski going to third. Again the signal for the \squeeife\ was given and Danny Shipuleski scored when brother Marty laid d o w n a perfect bunt, and again Marty was safe at first on a fielder's choice as the Green- port infield went completely up in the air. Meehan, who was on third by this time, stole home to score South- old's fifth run dl the inning, Marty going to third on the play. Once more the signal for the \squeeze play\ was given, to Conrad who was then at bat, but with less fortunate results. De- duck pitched wide and Conrad was called out for stepping across the plate. Marty, who had run In on the pitch, was trapped between home and third but umpire Matthews yelled \no play\ at this point and Shipuleski stopped running and walked back to third, be- ing tagged with the ball by the Green- port third baseman. Matthews then called him out. But after the South- old players had grouped around him and started arguing, he reversed his decision, sending Shipuleski back to third base. It was at this point that Greenport protested the game. Marty scored when Conklin, who had relieved Deduck In the box, uncorked a wild pitch. Southold a d d e d two more In the eight h when Healing garnered his third hit of the day and Danny Ship- uleski followed with a home run, a tremendous wallop to deep right field, on which he scored standing up. Healing, with three hits out of three official times at bat, and Danny Ship- uleski with two for two, were the bat- ting stars for Southold. Joe Ostroskl did a fine job behind the bat and the entire Southold Infield played great ball, with Jimmle Gagen providing the fielding gem of the day on his stop of Lellman's hard smash behind second base In the eighth and his perfect throw to first to retire the runner. Southold plays at Riverhead this Sunday. This Is the final round of the pennant race and the drive down the home stretch should be an Inter- esting one with five of the six teams still very much In the race, A light southeast breeze turned the seasoned S. Y. C. Race Committee's calm into a jitterbug session. To be or not to be a southwester was the question. The committee was on the spot and they knew It. > Should they lay a triangle to give a wlnward leg to Reydon In anticipation, of the South- wester or take nature as rtie be and lay the beat for the southeaster. Their deilslon was as It should have been, but the southwester failed to come true, necessitating only a short hitch on the second leg. The Handicaps seemed pretty well worked out but the first leg, being a broad reach, the rising breeze benefit- ted the scratch boats first and over- came the handicaps before the early starters caught its rising persuasion. In analyzing the time sheets one can see that Collison's Sea Witch, finishing six seconds b e h i n d Blue Bell and one second ahead of Roon's Reta, was pretty well figured by the Handicap Committee and the flukey aspect of the weather can be seen by the 5 mln. 41 seconds which seperated the two evenly matched Lawley's at the finish. Clem Booth sailed a good race in Ghost III to take third position and Fltz's crew did a good job with only a minute concession from Reta. \Doc\ Qlefenbacher, Art Smith, Joe Bennett and George Akscln were the \old faithfuls\ on the Race Committee, and handled their job well, as- usual. Sklpp y Kemp's \Ma-\ graciously waited patiently In her high-powered sea skiff to answer the bidding of the R. C., in laying the course buoys.

The reduction of the admission price followed weeks of haggling and un- certainty. The announcement did not come as a surprise to any one. Talk of the reduction was made soon after the Fair opened. But everything has its good and bad points. The 60c admission will automatically cancel the special $1 bargain week end tickets, as well as the much-heralded plan for $3.75 bargain tickets, which have a purchasing power of $7. The $1 week end tickets had become very popular. In his announcement, Grover Whalen, Fair president, said he felt \completely assured that public support will con- tinue during the second half of the Fair season.\ * * • DID YOU KNOW— .
