VIEWPOINT SOON TO BE FAVORED
 WITH GREAT. EVENT.

On June 24. the people of New town will witness an event that will occupy their minds for many years to come. On that day this good old town will take on it's gayest appear ance, and we'll It should-for it will welcome within it's historic borders the famous senior commercial class of Bridgeport High School. The class will hold it's first annual Field Day and reunion as the guests Of Miss Grace Osborne, one of NewtoWn's prominent young ladies. The prl- ci
 pal event of the day will be the great baseball game between NewtoWn High School and the All-Star senior commercial team, which will uphold the honor of the class and of Bridge pot Hish School. The All-Star team claims the champions ip cf New England, and has yet to bite the dust of defeat. Forty five lusty-llnged Commercial undergraduates will ac- company their almost invinclble team on the special train, and will cheer themselves hoarse to help bring home another victory to the team. ] The cheering section is already re- hearsing their coterie ot war-songs and cheers, and will show the New town Hieh Sc1ool pupils how Joy }lly they can root" for their nine husky champions of the baseball, hat and glove. The Sisters Jones will be in charge of this section. It is already apparent that Newtown will be covered under an avalanche of gold and white colored flags, the emblems of the invading Commercials. The All-Star Commercial team will line up as follows L Raymond Darling, (the Stonewall Jackson of the team) c: Eugene J. Kelley, D; "Mesdame
 Lee, (who is wanted hy the New York team) will smother bunts at third base; Hero Cotter will cover second as he only can cover it; Hen
 Eisenmanl. will erforn. at first base; Cottlieb Luippold will play short stop, Gtoi3e Miller, (the swittest fe Ter ir aptivity) will cavUrt in center field; E. Nelson, Ca second Ty Cobb will play right field and "Rube" Suneson will cover left field
 Io'lis Lefkowitz, the funniest toacb- CT in the business, will make it in teresting by his antic on the coach ing line. Engelhar1t will also coach. Pitcher Eusene Kelley, the hope or the team, is in great form at this time, and the Newtown boys will find it hard to connect with his slants, shoots and curves. After tue game, a banquet will be served, at which merry-making and eating will reign supreme. The list of after dinner speakers includes the follow ins well known orators: l.. B. Mat thias, 4. D., D.. C. L.; Mrs l.. 5. Matthias, Eugene Kelley, L. Ray mond Darling, Jane Justice Freeman, Grace Osborne, Harold Cctter and Thomas F. Lee. Altogether it will be a long-to- aforementioned day, and staid old Newtown should feel glad to welcome these future scions of the great business world.--[*
