 Plans call for the election of a manager if enough men are in at- tendance and it is possible that a discussion will be held in regards to securing the services of first class coach so that the team, when com pleted, will make up one of the fast est group of players who have ever played under the name of Acorn on the field.
 The team was organized last year and several good games were played although the players did not get the proper support from the local resi- dents. Anyone interest and who will later wish to try out for the team is asked to attend the meeting tomor- row night.
 If the plans of the organizers go through several games will be ar ranged to be played in this town and the support of the townspeople will be asked. Those in charge feel that the results of the legion track meet, which proved that Berlinites are in- terested in sports, will do great deal towards securing the support of local residents. Announcements in regards to the players. captain, man. ager and where the games will be played will be made at later date.
