 Still After Sunday Baseball.
 Scinski brothers, owners of the New Britain baseball team in the Eastern association, have not as yet given up their hopes for Sunday base ball at the Electric Field and 1t is understood that they are planning to give an exhibition on this diamond within few weeks. They have in- terviewed town officials and other prominent citizens including ministers and members of the citizens com mittee which brought sheriffs here two years ago to prevent J. J. Mur- phys team from playing. and the gem eral attitude of local people shown In the interviews gave them considerable encouragement.
 Rev F. l.. Grant, pastor of the Con- gregational church, who was recog- nized as the leader of the opposition, told his callers that at the time Mur- phys efforts were interfered with he acted simply at the direction of the leaders of his congregation. He did not say what steps would be taken should an attempt be ntade this year. John E. Lamb told the New Britain magnate that he is still opposed to Sunday baseball, but he made no threats either. The matter did not interest Selectman Johnson particu- larly, although he said he didn't like to see outsiders make dumping ground of Plainville.
 The Scinskis claim they have all ready sunk over $12,0O0 in their baseball venture and have absolutely no hope of getting any part of It back unless Sunday games are per mitted The attendance at weekday games is not sufficiently large to pay the guarantee to the visiting club and practically every day when the team is playing at home the owners have to augment the gate receipts with money from their purse to settle with the visitors.
 Should Sunday baseball be tried out 1t is not considered likely that the local authorities would interfere and the fate of the plans of the Scinskis depends entirely on whether the op- position cares to repeat its moves of two years ago when the services of deputy sheriffs from all over the were demanded.
 Babcock Against Johnson.
 While nominations for town offices will not be made for nearly two months, indications at this time point to a contest at the republican caucus between William J. Johnson and George S. Rabcock for the privilege of being the party's standard bearer. NG- l, IAv tn hn O candidate to succeed himself as first while his secretary, Mr. Babcock is also an avowed aspirant for the position.
 The latter claims to have the back ing of several of the party leaders and also declares to have received as- :. surance of a number of votes from the rank and file. He is confident of getting the nomination and also has clear visions of being elected.
 Selectman Johnson has made no announcement of his candidacy but his friends say he will be in the race when the caucus Is held.
