 ANNUAL VISIT

Many of the local baseball sup porters will remember the two appear ranees of the .Les Canadians on Adams Field last year, when the Silk Sox played a pair of best games of the year. but few will forget the hee- tic slugging match on last Memorial Day afternoon when both clubs ham, mered the opposing pitchers for a merry time all around. The timely insertion Of our ever dependable Caf- frey in the seventh marked the turn ing point of the tilt which ended with a Silk victory lt was in this con test that Lefty Touchette, youthful outfelder. made his brilliant entry into fair time ball much to the de light of all.
 Strengthened by the addition of a star twirler, none other than Armand Dubuque. former University of Ot- tawa finger. this same club will line up against the Silk SoX next Sunday afternoon in an attempt to revenge themselves for theif only defeat thIs season. The Dubuque Boucher bat tery will hardly be wanting in back ing as the Norton brothers both Providence College performers, AHiH of R. l. State NadeaI and Couruny- CT of Tufts. and in all probability cur own Lefty Touehette have been sign ed to appear with them.
 Coach There Gues' Farley will Use the CaiTrey- BaFdier battery, Ben nett on first. Nelson on second Dupfe on short. and Lou Tatro on third. Murphy will be in left, Carey in cen 4
 right
 So if you are planning to attend a game next Sunday We would recon mend the tilt on Adams Field as be- ing one second to none of the semi pro type in the state as the Clam Diggers are recognized as leading candidates for the title in their ter ritory of New England.
 Store Offers Prizes
 Much interest has been displayed both by members of the Silk Sox squad and the Putnam fans in tte offer forwarded by Milot < Williams in connection with home runs effect cd on Adams Field. This cothing concern has displayed some real sport ing spirit in offering the best Kuox hat available to the thread maker registering the first circuit drive in each of the coming games this sea son An additional award Of hand some travelling case for the player lifting the first homer in the annual Putnam m-Gfosvenordale series with a sweater given for the seasons records has given the players something to work for.
