Going into Hartford tonight. New Britain is most likely 10 meet Hart ford at its full strength. Assurances have been given that Fred Jean, leader of the Indians, will be back in harness tonight. He has been unable to play since he was injured in this city week ago last night. Hartford has consequently fallen from among the leaders 10 last place in the league.

are on hand for the fun.
Ernest E. Baldwin. chairman of
the greens committee at Shuttle
Meadow, has conceived the idea of
members-cadd tournament. with
the men and boys playing alternate
shots. He is making a canvass TO see
how many members will take the
chance Of having their caddles shoot
better than they can.
It's a grand idea and ought to

swing a mean club as they take
practice swings while one waits for

way and some of them turn in good

Val Flood is going to select the
caddles with good records and Mr..
Baldwin Will line up the Grand
Army sharpshooters to pair up with
the kids. AS only one set of clubs
for each twosome will be required,
the problem Of supplying the boys
with sticks is solved
Prizes for the tournament will
come out OF the caddy fund which
is said to be getting rather fat from
lack of exercise The event will go
big with the boys and it is hoped
that the response Of the men will
insure a partner for every caddy
whose greatest yen is to play the
course with some honest-to- goodness
clubs.
