Due to a change in arrangements between the Plainville Y. M. c. A. team and that of North Granby, the game scheduled for tonight will be played on the local basketball floor instead of in Simsbury as was announced at first. The change was made because of the fact that there haven't been many of the contests played in Painville this year and since the acquisition of local floor, many of the fans who have been following the work of the team have been desirous of seeing the contests played here instead of in some other town.
 Tomorrow night, another feature attraction has been booked for the local fans to watch when the Farm ington team will invade the Whit ing street court in search of the Plainville players scalps, Farming ton has stated that the hoop tossers from that town will be the first to make the locals taste defeat his year and to that end they have been practicing faithfully during the past month. Plainville, will be ready for the invaders and expects to send them back home badly beaten bunch.
 Firemen's Supper
 Tho o f,1 ,ap, oF pIaipt-tllo IYpga Co. No. held an interesting social in their rooms on Pierce street last night. A chicken supper prepared by James Boswell and William Gun ninrham was served. About 36 members attended and after the feast. several were called on for re- marks.
 William Dunham of the Plainville Engineering and Supply Co. read a prepared history of the company. The paper was presented in brief but interesting manner and the members heartily applauded the many points brought out in the nar- rative. MembNs of the board of fire commissioners addressed the gath ering on the reputation of the local company as the best volunteer com pany in the state. Officers and members of the company itself also spoke of the many things accom- plished by the company during the past year. The feature of the eve- ming was an address by Monsieur Alphonse Bordeau, one of the real veteran members of the company. He compared the methods of fire fighting being used in Plainviile at the present time and those used in years gone by. He also drew up some amusing incidents of his serv- ice as q fireman in La Prairie, a suburb of Montreal, Canada. MT. Bordeau holds the record for making time from the headquarters to fire with both trucks now in use.
