The much discussed question of basket

entirely to the satisfaction Of those who

The men have tried all season to get
permission for revival of the game,
but their efforts apparently bore little
fruit until the last meeting of the Off
GERS of the second regiment at Spring.
field, when the question was informally
discussed by Col. Clark and his officers.
Since the meeting the officers of the in
fantry companies have renewed the dis
eussion, and finally filed petitions for
permission to play the game.
These petitions were given to Col
Fred w. Wellington, custodian of the
armory, and by him sent to Adjt
Gen. Samuel Dalton, who mas not been
opposed to the game in the militia on
general principles. Consequently, when
he received the applications for permis-
sion to play the game at the Worcester
armory he returned them approved, but
appended certain restrictions and con-
ditions which the companies must live
up to if they again indulge in the
sport.
