 FOR COURT TEAMS Unprecedented Interest in BaS-
 ketball Shown Last Night MAY HAVE TOWN LEAGUE
Players Will Bc Split into Three Classcs-Narious school Commit tees Arc Namcd-AIphabct Sale a SucCcss-Church Notices.

In meeting marked by the cH- ubcranco and the enthusiasm ot Bcriin's younger generation, GO boys of all ages attended & meeting ln lratcrnal hall last night in answer to the call for basketball players issued by Rev. Vernon L. Philips This unexpected deluge of basket ball material sWamped the hall ana made officials realize that the handicap under which they must work to organize q basketball team in the town is not the lack of in terest but lack of room.
 After the meeting last night MT Philips thought that it would be possible not only to enter an inter- mediate team in the County league but also to have a senior team represent Berlin this season.
 A meeting was held Wednesday of the sponsors of the kensington Boys club. It was decided that if the interest warranted they would help maintain a basketball team or teams in the town of BCrlin The results last night were gratifying and the choosing of teams and the arranging of leagues will now be continued. Although Fraternal hall is the only place ill Berlin which has been used for basketball dur ing the past season it is thought that If no other place will be made available in the town the facilities Of the Boys club in New Britain may be used.
 Of the 60 boys attending last night 40 were of the junior class, being 1j years of age and under. and 70 were of the intermediate group. A league, to consist of six to eight teams, will be formed within the town Of Berlin. Further arrangements will be made later.
 Alphabet Sale Well Attended
 In one of the most clever and artistic arrangements of a bazaar seen in Berlin in many years. the Woman's Aid society of the Berlin sational church outdd itself last night in an effort 10 please those attending. The affair, accord ing to general comment. Was one or the most successful social affairs ever held in the Berlin church.
 The interior of the church rooms, the Sunday school, and the recrea- ton rooms were decorated with evergreen trees. At one end of the room tho Garden of Mary Quite Contrary, represented miniature flower garden with evergreens and flowers creating a colorful spot. Tucked away in the garden at ad- vantageous points beneath pines and surrounded by flowers were chairs and benches. The whole was sur rounded with a small white fence.
