er imperative to shut off steam, tone
up and overhaul the human machine
if we are to keep physically fit and
mentally well-balanced. Thousands
of folks are already building air
castles and picturing in their
dreams the good times they are go-
ing to have on their health-rest-
pleasure trip this summer. =.

CIRCUS PLEASED
TWO BIC CROWDS
HERE YESTERDAY

Fully $4,000 persons witnessed the
two performances given in this city
yesterday by the agenbeck-Wallace
shows while many thousands just WIS.,
tied the grounds to look around and
visit the two side shows which were
on either side of the main entrance to
the big top.
From the time the main doors
opened until the close of the big show
there was something doing every min
ute. The Wallace band
rendered a fine concert during the
long wait before the show began, which
was well received. Each and every
one of the acts were received enthus-
iasticallly, from the greatest aerial act
down to the male quartet, that enter
tanned with late popular hits. The
contingent of clowns went through
their antics cleverly, many of the old
stunts were pulled while more along
new lines kept the crowd amused.
The Wallace shows carry a splendid
menagerie with it's many camels, ele-
plants, horses and wild animals. A
collection of so cowboys, cowg1rls and
Russian Cossacks gave a Wild West
concert after the big show ana played
to large numbers.
Shortly after midnight the first Sec
ton of the train bearing part OF the
equipment of the show pulled out OF
Bridgeport for New Haven where the
circus will play today.
The big street parade that was
given yesterday morning was witness
ed by large crowds that lined the
streets along the march. 1t left the
circus grounds. a little after the sched-
uled time, 10 o'clock, but the crowds
that had gathered waited patiently
and until the steam calliope on the
tail end passed by did they move.
Great numbers walked, took Jitneys or
trolley to the grounds to see the great
rree open air exhibition when was
given Immediately after the parade

CARDELLA BACK
With SENATORS
Gloomy Gent Secured By
Manager Clarkin to Boil
ster Up His Infeld.

Hartford, May 19-Owner James
H Clarkin has secured the release Of
Gus Gardella, for the past two sea-
and of the Hartford team when it
graced the old Eastern Association.
to round out his infield for the coming
season. Gardella reached town last
night for a conference with the Hart
ford magnate regarding terms and the
confab will be held this morning. If
Gardella falls in line, he will fill the
vacancy at second base, and there is
a likelihood that he will be named
field captain, because of his fighting
spirit which the fans will remember
he always displayed when on the
field.
The addition of Gardella will COM
plete a strong dnfield. Fletcher Low.
who will report next Saturday in. time
to get into the opening game of the
season here, will be back at his old
post, while Roy Grimes will be at
short, and either Ray We're or Will
liam Shay will guard the initial sack.
It is the intention of the Hartford
magnate to play either We're Or
Shay in the outfeld, if either makes
good at first. AS Outfelders Cally
and Meeks, obtained from Toledo, ar
rived late last night, the outfield also
will be complete, with either We're or
Shay assigned to the vacant pasture.
II is very likely that the club will
shape up in this manner next We'd
nesday in the opening clash against
New London, unless Clarkin decides
to alter his plans.
The locals got their first real work
out of the season yesterday afternoon
when they go up against team from
Camp Devens. Practice was held
yesterday, six being out, two of them
for the first time. Pitcher Cook and
First Baseman Shay, latest additions,
donned uniforms and displayed much
promise Shay acts like a good hit
ter and Cook handled himself excep-
tionally well.
The hope is being entertained that
Ray We're will pan out as hitter.
He hits the ball on the nose AMI
there is no reason why he should not
make good with a vengeance this sea-
son. Both Pitchers Horton and Cook
will be used against the soldiers this
afternoon and Briger will be found
behind the bat.
