 Jobs Pond, Portland. The Legion League includes the foremost boys team of the town and promises to revive with the attention which 1t has recently brought upon itself.
 In connection with the baseball league, Commander Ventres today expressed the wish that officials of the Berlin Juniors team notify him as to whether or not the baseball squad would resume operations in the Legion league. He stated that several different sources had given him varied reports of the attitude of the team and he was anxious to get an official report on the plans of the aggregation. He expressed the wish that the team stay in the league un- til the close of the sason.
 Court Continued
 All cases scheduled to appear be- fore the regular Tuesday evening session of the Berlin town court were continued for one week last evening. No session of court was neld aL the town nall.
 An-Kensington To Visit
 The All-Kensington baseball team will journey to Taftville Saturday afternoon where they will meet the same team that they whipped last Saturday at the score of to 3. So impressed was Dan Malarney with the fine playing of the upstate az gregation that he booked them for a return engagement on the grounds last week. It is probable that the locals will use Kania on the mound, the local youngster holding the Taft vile squad to eight hits, we'll scat tered, in last weeks game.
 Underpass Plans
 Reports from a reliable source, as to the eventual action which Is to take place at the station underpass during the coming construction of the new highway, state that the road level and the track level of the pres ent bridge will remain unchanged but that draining extensions to be situated above and below the under pass would eliminate the sudden floods which have inundated the spot lately with the coming of the heavy rains.
 Present drains are inadequate to handle the flow of water which drops from Upson's corners and on the other side from the slope which leads into the underpass. The duct which carries the waste water from under the bridge to the nearby brook is easily choked with refuse and mud and needs constant super vision to keep from backing water into the road. Also the tendency of the brook to rise above the level of the outlet and to throw water back through the drain pipe into the road has combined to present puzzling situation to engineers in charge Of the work. To heighten the level of the road would force the heighten- ing of the level of the tracks with an enormous expenditure accom- panying the move. The tracks would need a lift for approximately half a mile on either side of the bridge.
 Drains located on each side Of the underpass are claimed to be the only solution to the problem. Pipes from these openings would be led to the brook at places below the point into which the present sewer opens. defiecting a rise of water into the road through the drain at this point.
 Reconstruction work now taking place on the bridge has dispelled rumors to the effect that a new bridge was going to be raised at the spot.

Woodruff today stated that the quit claim deed recently submitted Jordon and Sel- lick of Bridgeport. owners of the Treasure Fields district property which will be accepted by the town. had not yet been received from that concern.
