 H The much heralded meeting of the Chamber of Commerce baseball com
 mittee which was held last evening in
 4, J. Befdeau's bafbershop in the
 Russell block for the purpose Of se-
 curing the sentiment of those inter-
 ested in a baseball field in the town,
 turned out 10 he 6zEle. Messrs.
 John Lamb, William Dnmham and A.
 m attempt will he made io eommuni-
 tee. were the only ones in attendance
 and no representatives of societies.
 baseball or football organizations
 were present to voice their opinions
 of the proposed plan Of getting Flee
 tric feld into shape 10 use as an ath-
 letic field this year,
 The members of the committee
 were unable to accomplish anything
 further with regard to the field and
 an attempt will be made 10 ocmmuni-
 cate with the various organizations in town with respect 10 the matter and
 another meeting will he arranged to
 be held in the Chamber of Commerce headquarters on Pierce street when
 the matter will bc threshed out once 1 again. IL Is possible that if the next
 mceting peters out the same ag last
 nights session, there will be no fur
 ther work done by the committee and
 inc matter will be dropped by the | Chamber Of Commerce.
 So 1luch has been said about the propect and the Chamber of Com merce has undergone such an amount nf criticism because of the fact that there is no available place on which to play the national games, that it was expected that the same persons who did SO much talking about the | project, would be present at ;he meet |, ing last night Although it was pub lished in two separate issues of the Herald" that the meeting was 70 Le held and it was known by the mem bers of the committee that several of those who are supposed to )a the leaders in the move to keep sports alive here were cognizant of the lime and place of the meeting, the com mittee members assembled 10 find that there was nothing could be dcne about it.
 At the present time, there gre two teams which play steadily in Plain vile. One is the St. Mary's team and { ho r,:. team representing the Hartford corn- ty Y. NJ. C. A. group here. The lat ter plays it's games on Trumbull's field and the former on what has l cen known as Rockwel's field. It was be- cause of the sale and later develop nent Of the so-caled Rockwoll's field nto land sale project, that the l movement for baseball field was tarted. {
 The matter was brought to the at [ ention of the PlainviIle Chamber Of a Commerce with the result that the F committee was appointed to seek sites which might be available. The sec, etary of the chamber got into com- p nunication with the various owners a f fields adaptable. to playing. and Il ound that one project would require
 large amount of money to put 1t Il ito shape. Then came a letter from b he Connecticut Co.,. present owners of ,lectric field, the home of baseball ir. in past years. which stated D nat the Plainvile Chamber of Con- lerce could have the use of the field 'r the purpose of an athletic field n 'r this season at least, free. This l as considered good news and an cy- 'llent offer by most all concerned in 'e matter and without leaving thiYgs } they were, the committee started to ork on getting the field in shape, T. The project was to be discussed last ienlng and some plan of future cp- 'ation was to be devised. This, 'wevcr, never happened because of Q fact that the same ones who have 'peared so interested and so prone c,
 criticism. didn't care to bother tough to attend the meeting. The 'o will make one more at ia mpt and if it is not more successful to an last nights affair. it is most of ;ely that it will be dropped for good gr d no one will have the right to N, II IL lhS III tue luluTc. Announce CT ents of the future meeting will be wc ede within a short time.
