Scores First Basketball Victory l in History Of School
PRIOR FOR DEPUTY JUDGE
Scrs ices In Churches Tomorrow Morning - Mectiag Of American Legion Monday Evcning-LOcal People Confined to Hospital.

Coming from behind in a smasb- ing second half attack, Plainville high school won the first basketbad victory in it's history last night | when it nosed out Litchfield high by S3-3. in . fast and fierce Western Connecticut league game in Litch- field. During the early periods Plainvilie put up a good scrap bat could not hold Charton. the Litch- field star, and at intermission the home team was leading by l7-l4. When play was resr med however the locals cut loose with their most brillian exhibition of the season. took the lead away from Litchfield. and held it in a desperate. do-or-die fight which lasted all the way to the final whistle.
 l King and Gerkc were the Plain- vile stars the former accounting for l4 points and the latter for 10. Not only did Coach caulfieId's charges show to advantage from the fiel'l. but they did much better work from the foul line than they have be, n doing Of late. In fact. it was on this ability to sink free shots that they won the game. Gautheir and Berry did some clever guarding.
 Plainville highs first basketball team took to the floor early in the winter of 1se7-192S and played that whole season without winning vic- tory. The boys were green" in the extreme, few of them ever having handled basketball before. They were also smaller than the other league teams. and though thy fought grimly their lack Of size aud experience proved double handi cap.
 With years play behind them, the team began this year with q one point loss and has followed th,s with series of heart-breaking de. feats by few points. Steady im- provemt mt has been made under been waiting anxiously for the day when their losing streak should be snapped. It had been extended to almost 70 games when this break occurred last might. For their two- year fight against odds. the boys ta- day were being given great credit. and with the redoubled confidence which they have now acquired they are expected to turn in several more wins before the season ends. Litchfcld is considered strong team. and the triumph over tt is quite an achievement. Last night s l aiinlmary.

Strong Athletic Organization
 Effected by Consolidation

With arrangements completed last night at special meeting of rep resentatives of both clubs. the Bur- ritt Athletic club, one Of the best known and most popular organiza- tions in the city, became part of the local Falcon Nest No. SS. Negotiations have been in progress for the past few weeks and . final agreement was reached at last nights meeting, with members of the Burritt club coming into tho Falcon organization as full-hedged members. Such consolidation makes the Falcon club | strong az gregation and with the acquisition of some of the best athletes in the city. the club can look forward to a successful baseball team next sea- son.
 It is the first great move in ath- letic circles since both clubs start ed their activities some years ago. The rivalry heretofore was keen and the move to consolidate the best in athletic prowess is looked upon as tIit IuVHL U6tSht tHuu& 1uUoAhuNH UT it will create & formidable array Of baseball and basketball stars in the emi-professiona. field. ! According to plans. the consoli- dated forces will place three base ball teams on the field-two under the name of the "Burritts" and one ulder the name of Falcons, which will be the mainstay of tho organ- ization, comprised of the best ath- !etic material picked from among all the members. The two "Burritt" teams may play in the city league and a junior league. while the main Falcon" team will be comprised of the best baseball stars. With such d combination. where the Organiza- ton will have farm" for the less experienced. but ambitious players, the Falcons may look forward to ono of the best semi professional base ball aggregations in the state.
 All players under the agreement will be requested to play throughout the season without pay. and at the end of the season the profits will be split on the basis of the amount Gf service rendered by each player. IL is possible that the batteries will be paid for each game separately, but his question Was left for future dis cussion.
 The teams will be under the man. agcment of q special baseball com- -nittee composed of five members and the manager, who will act as chairman.
 The consolidation of the clubs brings to the Falcons approximately 50 new membc- :, and among them such popular baseball stars as Jo- scph Walicki. Joseph Luty.

IN GHOST TOWN

Once Aurora, now a ghost town In
the mountains of western Nevada,
was filled with 10000 gold miners.
From 1851 to 1869 they took $50, O0O,-
600 Of the precious metal from the
mountains near by.
Now all is silence in and around
the remaining buildings Of what was
once the flCurishing county seat
town, says Capper's Weekly. Not
a soul has lived in the town for
many years. Desert winds Groom
through the windoWiess, decaying
buildings. Creosote brush, wild
juniper and other desert growth
have overgrown the townsite. Coy
otes stink away between the build
ings as you approach.
Even now evidence remains that
this town was once a roaring gold
camp. The best.preservcd shell of
a building remaining Is the Hermi.
tage, in its day a famous saloon.
The front glass window, still intact,
tells you it was gallagher and

had there.
Even the mirrors SUN stand back
of the decaying bar and the rusty
brass foot rail remains. A few card

into ruin, remind the visitor of the
days when fortunes were won and
lost there.

IF KIDNEYS ACT
BAD TAKE SALTS

When you wake up with back
ache and dull misery in the kidney
region it may mean you have been
eating foods which create acids,
says a well-knoWn authority. An
excess of such acids oVerwOrks the
kidneys in their effort to filter it
from the blood and they become
sort of paraIy2ed and loggy. When
your kidneys get sluggish and clog
you must relieve them, like you
relieve your bowels, removing all
the body's waste, else you have
backache, sick headache, dizzy
spells: your stomach sours, tongue
is coated and when the weather is
bad you have rheumatic tWinges.
Either consult a good, reliable
physician at once or get from your
pharmacist about four ounces of
lad Salts; take a tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys
may then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of
grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
years to help clean and stimulate
sluggish kidneys. also to neutraliZe
acids in the system, so they no
longer irritate, thus often relieving
bladder weakness.
lad Salts is inexpensive, cannot
injure and makes a delightful, eff
ferVescent lithiaWater drink. Drink
lots OF good water.
