kEMMERER PLANS
NUMEROUS CHANGES
Pioneers Baseball Manager Busy
Arranging 1917 Season Details

If tentative plans of Manager KEN
merer of the Pioneers Baseball club
materialize, the season 1917 should
be one of the most successful in the
history Of the organization, and the
comforts of the crowds that find their
way to the East ellis street grounds
should also be greatly enhanced. AL
though the opening of the season is
long way off, the energetic leader of
the Pioneers has been busily engaged
in making arrangements for the sea-
son which include new playing man
ager, some new faces on the team and
last but not least the erection of
grand stand, which has long been felt
a necessity. The present layout of
the playing field is not satisfactory to
the new helmsman,, and a complete
change will be made. 1t is Manager
Kemmerers intention to move the
diamond back several feet thus afford
ing the outfielders more opportunity
of covering ground With the pro-

preparation for the national indoor
championship tournament scheduled
to be started there next Saturday
were Confronted with the possibility
Of cancellation of the event.
1t was said that in the event of a
declaration of war against Germany
the armory would be used at all
times for drill and other war pur-
poses, making the tennis competition
impossible. Even should there be no
declaration of hostilities there is a
chance that the regmental author
tiles will order all outsiders kept out
of the armory. AS armory floors are
only places available for the tourna-
ment the situation is, to say the least,
rather unsettled.

the best players outside of profession

That the eyes of some OF the East
ern league managers Of last season,
are focused on the local boy Is we'll
known, the writer having been ap-
preached by the leader of club locat-
ed nearby, who went into detail regard
ing Lynch's ability. 1t Is also said
that New York State League magnates
are dickering for his services next
season. If Lynch should decide to re-
main out of professional baseball, his
choice as leader Of the Pioneers
would seem like a good one.

There has been a number OF match
bowling contests at the Aetna alleys
during the present season which has
created much interest, but on next
Friday evening two teams will clash
consisting of employees Of the Russell
& Erwin Manufacturing company,
which should prove to be hummer.
Great secrecy is being manifested over
the members of the teams. The match
will be with the big pins, and one Of
the captains confesses to not having
rolled game in thirty-five years.
AS far as ascertained, Sammy Waltz
has not decided to sever relations with
the boxing game.
Basketball fans attending the sched-
uled game at the Armory Saturday
night were treated to another lemon,
when a team from Meriden failed to
put in an appearance. The local RAM
blers and the Braves of Hartford tried
to entertain the crowd" but their
efforts were ludricous, the home boys
winning, score 54 to 81.
