Triple Tie For Lead
By virtue of its is win last night
the St. Paul team knocked the Cy-
press Hill outfit out OF its undisputed
position in first place in the soft ball
league and into tie with the Saints
and Giants This was by far the
most important game of the night
and it was bitterly contested by both
participa nts. An over confident bear
ing on the part OF the Hill crowd,
which it is alleged they have as
sumed since their surprise victory
last Tuesday over the highly favored
Giant entry, is given as the reason
for the defeat OF last night They
entered the game with a careless at
titude, and before they could bring
themselves to believe that they
could be beaten it was too late to
stop the advance OF the Saints and
when the smoke of battle cleared the
Hill boys had taken their first de-
feat right on the chin.
The Giants climbed into tie for
first place by handing the Bottle AL
ley crew q defeat by the score of 3
to .. This was q fast and well play
ed game. The outstanding star was
the pitcher of the Giants. who has
already begun to attract the atten-
ton of the scouts from down Blue
Hills way.
The American Legion team came
as close to getting into the win col
umn as it ever has when it fought
the Firndales literally off their feet
only to lose out in a tough battle by
the score OF 10 TO u. This was
free hitting contest and the result
was in doubt right up to the last in
ming.
Interest is running high in the
league and the rivalry is becoming
keener every week.
Next Tuesdays games will see
some changes in the standing. as the
Giants and Saints will clash and the
winner will retain its position while
the losers will be pushed nto second
place.

Bill Downham is being hailed d.
Santa Claus by the Old Timers to

running around the paths when they
very much wished TO sit down and

Loop Bloomfield Minister to
Preach Here-Former Kensing-
ton Man Weds-Notes.

Farmers in this section found
little soace in the shower Of last
night and today were bemoaning
that it did not rain harder and
longer. They have been wearing a
worried look for the past few weeks
because of the lack of rain and
they claim that if some does not
fall very soon it is quite possible
that a great percentage of their
crops will be lost,
Some of the larger market gar
deners Of the section have made
provision against such an cmer-
gency by equipping their fields
with watering facilities to offset any
such drought as has been expert
enced during the past few weeks
What with the drought threaten
ing loss to their crops in general
and the corn borer quarantine elm
mating any chance of finding a suf-
ficient market for this particular
product, their situation has become
a serious one. Those farmers who
have large acreage Of potatoes are
fearful lest the dry spell will cause
the crop to suffer.
A gang of mon who are making
an excavation in the southern part
OF town stated that they went down
many feet into the ground before
they discovered any sign of mois-
ture.
The weather bureau holds out
little hope for an early rainfall and
reports every indication that the
present heat wave will be continued
despite the break that has been
noted since yesterday and which
caused the temperature to drop
better than 10 to IS degrees in this
section.

ties as president OF Shenandoah col
leee, a post to which he was re-
Gently elected.

peared at service here. and a cor
dial invitation is given to all resi-
dents of Kensington to attend the
service. Members OF the Kensing-
ton Methodist church are parucu-
larly invited.
Condition Becomes Critical
Reports from the Hartford hos
pital last night indicated that the
condition of Miss Jennie Panciera
OF 252 Brittania street, Meriden,
who was injured when the car IN
which she was riding with Joseph
Maggi and wife of the same address
struck a telephone pole Wednesday
night and turned turtle, had assum-
ed a critical aspect.
Masgi was placed on the critical
list when cursory examination
brought out the fact that he was
suffering from a possible fractured
back and skull.
Later examination Of Miss PAN
ciero gave rise to the belief that
she also had sustained serious back
injuries and a possible fracture of
the collar bone.

men and women can understand
for an photographed work. He
made an appointment with the
mathematical genius for early In

for his profligate generosity. His

ever turned away. Friede showed
