ODD FELLOWS MAKEGOOD
 TO VICTORIOUS K. OF C..

as members of ffaternal organizations, while the things they stand for might be different, those present stood for the highest citizenship. He thought that Putnam was fortunate in having men of such broadminded spirit that they could mingle in soeiability as they did at the banquet
 Probate Judge Henry N. Benoit,
 ifand Knight of CarRill Council, K. oi C.. made a most eloquent address a.ong the same lines, stating that it
 boWcd the advance of civilization, as means of communication has advanced. to see the K of C. and the i. 0. c. F.. gathering together in the fellowship of brotherhood. as such thing would have been unthinkable not so many years ago. The fact that they were 70 gathered together. he thought, was an inspiration to all t0 become better men and better citizens. In behalf of the Knights Of Columbus he presented to the hosts of the evening beautiful Vavel with band inscribed From K. of C. to I. 0. Q. F., and hoped that the gayel would be wieldeG with im- partiality, and that when used it would bring pleasant memories of the evenings gone before.
 Accepts Gavel
 Noble Grand George A. Swanson Of the Odd Fellows, in accepting the gavel. made a few remarks in which he voiced the sentiment of the members Df his organization in the pleasure it gave them in entertaining the guests of the evening, and the hope that the friendships made during the tourna- ment would continue for the mutual benefit of each.
 Other speakers were Bernard Me Garry, who gave statistical report of the games won and lost. Major A. D. McIntire, William r. Warren, IT, win F. Tourtellote, Charles Bove, Dr. k. Y. Perry, who told a story Cor did he2). Leon. T. Wilson, and others.
 Rising votes of thanks were given the Odd Fellows as hosts, and the la dies of the Rehekahs for their untiring meal, after which cards and pool were played, the gathering dispersing at an early hour Friday morning
 As regards the tournament itself, which closed without the Odd Fellows winning single evenings contest, it might be said that the spirit manifest cd throughout was one of good fellow ship and sociability. the object being not SO much the winning of the games, as the pleasure of making new ac- quaintanceships and friends which was furnished through the medium of the tournament.
 The hope was expressed by all pres ent that the tournament would be con tinued next year and for many years to come.

BOXING NOTES

Tomorrow night at New Haven there k n meeting of the A. A. L. When the meeting Is over 1t is hoped that the affiliated clubs and those that stage bouts under the association's sanction will know where they stand. The ban placed on boxing since the death of a young amateur has upset amateur meets throughout the state
 The Putnam Sporting Club has made no plans while the conditions were in an uncertain state. If the ban k lifted SO that the local club can get sanction for meet the prompt CTS ars planning Co stage q big season closer next month. \ member of the official staff told the writer that big bargain event will be put on next month to ring down the curtain until next fall Ringside seats will be sold as eheaply as seventy-five cents. with few at a higher price, and some even lower The card will be made up of the best possible amoteur talent. It will be an attempt to see if the boxing fans of Putnam are really interested in the sport. and may have bear ing on what the club will do next fall. While the attendance was pretty good early this season, it dropped to fair and then to poor. which was not en- eouraging to the hackers of the club. It sometimes seems discouraging Co do a lot of work, pay for seven or eight bouts. and then find a lot of empty seats in the hall when the show goes on.

SEASON OPENER
Baseball Will Officially Start First Week In May, Says
 Manager.

Baseball in Putnam will be formally ushered in the first week in May Man Bger Murphy of the Bedding hemin- way Silk sox will either introduce the Standard Oil team of New London or the Norton Company organization from Worcester for the opening en- t.rtainment. While neither of these fast outfits really needs an introdnc- tion Co Putnam fans, it is customary Go be n bit formal when the season formally opens. As far as known no one has been chosen to pitch the first ball, and perhaps there will be no flowers or fancy work in ushering in the season of 1928. Be that as it may the season will open within a couple of weeks and by that time it Is hoped the old sun will have warmed up the bleaehers.
 The complete lineup for the season has not been determined, but tentative ly Cooler Nelson or Bardier will catch Tom Dwyer, hefty 225 pounder from Webster, who worked last season with Newport, will be an addition to the pitching staff Lefty Dugas, last sea- son with State Hospital, will play the initial corner; Caifrey, second Cotter or Dupre with Tetreault will round out the infeld Out in the gar dens will be seen Touchette, Carey, Nelson and Murphy. It may be that the yannigans will develop someone for place on the regulars.
 Jimmie Williamson. captain of the Kaeeys of New London last season, will coach the Sox. The first outdoor workout was to be held on Saturday, but the last day of the week was too cold and rainy even for a football game.

Hoyt Is Bounced Back and

CARDINALS BEATEN

Game by Clouting Home
Run With Two on


The major league drama is done
for another season, but the Yankees
and the Cardinals still have an cpl
logue to offer. They meet in the
worlds series, starting at New York
on Thursday and ending when one
team has won four games.
With both pcnnant campaigns al
ready decided, there was not much
to interest the baseball fans in yes
terday's closing engagements. Most
of the games faithful stayed away
in large numbers, some Of them, no
doubt, resting up for the excitement
that is to come later this week.
With $4,000 bonus as incentive,
Waite Hoyt, right-handed ace of
Miller Higgins Yanks, pitched the
American league champions to z
to 6 victory over the Detroit Tigers.
Hoyt had been promised 'two
grand" as they say in the very best
pugilistic circles, if he won %
games this year. He was cuffed
about rather freely by the Tigers,
but won his reward with the aid of
Babe Ruth's fifty-fourth and Lou
Gehrig's twenty-seventh home runs.
The Philadelphia Athletics fin
ished the season two and a half
games back of the Yanks, when they
were thrown for a loss by the Chi
cago White Sox in general and Bob
Weiland, rookie pitcher from the
Mississippi Valley league, in particu-
lar. Weiland held the AS, to seven
hits and famed nine men. The Sox
scored the only run in the game in
the seventh when Kamm singled
home Reynolds from second base.
Goose Goslin's homer with two
on in the fifth was the high spot of
Washington's 8 to l victory over the
st. Louis Browns.
The Boston Red Sox romped to
an easy to 2 win over the Cleveland
Indians. Phil Todt getting a home
run and three singles.

ond National league championship

The Giants thus finished the season
