CHAMBEROF COMMERCE TEAM EvENSUP
 WITHUOTARYCLUBFORCARROLL TROPHY!

The Chamber of Commerce team, bolstered up by the addition of Dam ny Driscoll in the role of pitcher, evened up the series for the Carroll cup by trimming the Rotary club team at the State Hospital grounds on We'd nesday afternoon by an overwhelming score of 13 to 3. Danny recently took eut a membership in the chamber SO as 10 be eligible for the game and with the assistance of Charlie Wells, alleged umpire, managed to mow down the Rotary boys in grand style.
 The game was a slaughter and the Rotarians have no alibi to offer for superior pitching won for the Chamber boys. The chamber opened the game with three runs and continued to pile them up until they had totaled the unluclxy number of 13-unlucky for the Rotary team. President Bill Park. for mer Windham High star, pitched for the Rotary club and deserved bet ter fate than the 13 to 3 trimming. Umpire Wells, who by the way is pres ident of the Chamber of Commerce. seemed troubled with a bad attack of sye-strain or maybe it was the smoke from the big black cigar that both cred his vision, but anyhow Charlie certainly missed a lot of them.
 There were many thrills in the game perhaps the most thrilling when Howis Baker went in to pitch in the fourth inning. Howie had all kinds of speed but was a little lacking in control and had to give way after he had knocked three boards off the. back stop and thrown one ball over the Erandstand. Umpire Wells was uncer tain whether to call the ball that went over the stand a strike or not as he claimed it was so uneXpected that he did not see it as 1t went by the bat ter.
 Russ Clapp was the hitting demon of the Rotary club and one of the the three runs was due to his circuit blow. Russ met one on the nose and drove it to left field where Bert Caror was peacefully parked. Bert made g great attempt to stop the hurtling pill but his feet became entangled witf each other with the result that Bert gave a very realistic imitation of z nose dive. Bert in making his land ing which was more forceful thar graceful sprained his arm and had tC retire from the game. It was sur' hard luck, for Bert had been playing a whale Of a game until his un- timely accident. Jimmy Jones, Pas niks understudy, replaced Caron il left.
 Russ Clapp played a good game il the field as did Jim Madden. Jimm, Quinn also featured with several one footed stops of hard-hit balls. Jim shins were pretty sore when the gam was over.
 The next and final game of the SC F1es will be played two weeks from yes terday. The Rotary club will play tn Bankers next week.

ALL-lNsURANcE AT
 TAFTVILLE ON SATURDAY

Every fan who has a drop of sport ing blood in his veins is finding it hard work 10 walt until Saturday when the Taftville A. A. clashes with the su- per-speedy All-Insurance team of Hartford on the Providence Street dia- mond. Information reaching the local team reveals the fact that Cleary, pop ularly known as Ginger Cleary will do the rwirling for the visitors. If so lt will require the straining of every nerve in the Tattville organization to defend themselves. Cleary is the ar lest who recently pitched such rugged ball for South Manchester, and also pitched for All-Insurance when they won the championship of all the insur- ance teams in the Capitol City. For some time it has been known in base ball circles that scouts from the big leagues have had their eyes on him, md it IS reputed that he has been made m offer 10 appear in stronger com pzny.
 Taftville will not go into the game with some powerful addition of their own Mckay. that hard hitting center fielder of the Norwich Kaceys will be on duty at second. and Houlihan, who holds a position on the team of the Shipping Board at Washington. D. C.. which has never been beaten this sea son will take care of center. Houli- han will also play Sunday in the game with Willimantic. The local team has also been very fortunate in being ab- ls to secure Mccarthy, late of the State Hospital team, to preside on the

mound. This is the same twirler who let Danielson down with only four hits last Sunday. Morin is scheduled to pitch Sundays league game at Will limantic.
 Taftville is now playing good ball, and by hard hammering recently, have been able to forge to the top in the league standing and they are now leading by half game. With these two good pitchers and Belair behind the batter, it appears that they are due to win their share for the bal ance of the season.
 Captain Belair has been whipping his men into shape this week, and plans for a dress rehearsal Friday night when the boys will be grilled over live coals to make them tough for Saturday. and the management hopes that a big crowd will be on the grounds to give their sporting repre- sentatives a litle encouragement and help out on the financial end.

BALTIC A. A. TO REPLACE
 MOOSUP IN E. c, LEAGUE

The Baltic A. A., was voted into the Eastern Connecticut Baseball league on Wednesday evening at a meeting of the directors of the league held in Jewett City. Baltic will take the place of the Moosup team which has quit the league to play faster ball. Baltic tried to get into the league earlier in the season but was unable to do so owing to various conditions. The Rob- ert Gair team of Montville also made application for the league but it was the unanimous opinion of the directors that Baltic was better able to enter the league and was better equipped as to playing grounds.
 The members of the Moosup team were declared free agents and will undoubtedly go to other teams on the circuit. Routine business was tram sacted and the members of the board of directors expressed themselves as well pleased with the conditions of the league. Those present at the meet ing were: President L. M. Carpenter, Hal Chase, Dr. George Thompson, George Young, MT. Girard, MT. Beau chier, John McQuillan, MT. Moore, Joseph Morrisette Joseph Cranker and Tony Sylvia,
