NEW BASEBALL ORGANIZATION
 FORMED IN WiLLIMANTIc
Newly Formed Independents Include
 Old Stars.

Indications are that Willimantic will be prominent in baseball circles this summer. With two divisions in the American Thread Plant league and the Emeralds in the field, another con- tender for honors looms up on the hor- izon. The Thread Citys latest baseball team is the Independents, and judging from a slant at the organization from the management down to the mascot, the Independents are some team. The team was organized this week. The manager is Aleck Beaulieu, and the assistant manager, Oscar Turney.
 The following galaxy of stars have been signed up by Manager Beaulieu and include several players that have helped to make history for Williman- tic: Bill Anderson catcher, Babe Adams. Mop Peloquin and Joe Rivers pitchers, Mitte Arbour shortstop. Art Nichols first bast, Jack Nichols sec- ond base, Toss Cote third base Henie McDermott left field, Dan Ryan cen terf1eld, Art Johnson right field.
 Anderson has been appointed the captain and Manager Beaulieu expects that Bill will get all there is out of the bunch in games. The club has hired a piece of Ian din West Main street on the trolley line to South Cow entry and has laid out playing field. Beaufieu challenges the Erneralds to a series for the.city championship.

AT DAVIS THEATRE.
Vaudeville and PhotopIavs.

There is plenty of music this week in the bill at the Davis theatre for the first half of the week and each number on the bill Is one that fills a fitting niche in the we'll put together show. The one act that is outside of the mu- sical realm is that of Wager, Delor and their dog Dandy. They are comedy acrobats and aerialists who thrill with their nervy work which finishes up with a spectacular breakaway finish that brings down the house. Denny & Morrison appear in a singing and mu- sical act that is of particular merit, and there is a comedy singing and talking skit by Adams & Peters that is an irresistible inducement to forget the blues.
 Tuneful Irish numbers in a voice that is well handled are given by Hen " Kelly, and for a little Scotch by way of variety Court & Don are on the bill with the national airs of that land which they give with spirit and realism. In the photoplays the Mutual Weekly. Keystone comedy and a powerful dramatic film make up the attractive offerings.

 When he had observed Sam all during the trip, Cal became convinced that any man who lived the clean and temperate life that Crawford did had from six to eight years of big league baseball in him even after he had passed his thirty fourth birthday and his sixteenth year in the game.
 Crawford has from six to eight years in big league baseball, or miss my guess" said Callahan. Although he is already signed to a four years contract with Detroit, he'n have a chance to sign another"
