 The Winsted team is composed of a gang of players who are well known to most of the local fans. Among those who will be seen Sunday are Rubino, star third sacker on the Tor rington nine; Holden. one of the best first basemen around these parts, and Tucky, formerly a star in the Con- necticut league. Although he has slowed up somewhat in the field, Tucky has been retained by the Win sted management for his hitting. He is also able to step on the mound and burn them over as in days Of old With Adams behind the bat Dietlin on short, Cady on second and the Conklin brothers. Charlie and Dan, the Winsted team has been rounded into one of the fastest teams in this state.
 The Kaceys, though they have been weak with the willow, have been play ing a good fielding game, and they are prepared to give Selleck a royal lacing when he starts Sunday. Pos sibly, there will be a couple of new faces in the kacey lineup, who, it is expected, will bolster up the hitting power of the team. The game will start promptly at 3 o'clock with Ed Crowley holding the indicator.
