Gro,xenordale Again

The largest crowd of the season k expected on Adams field next Sunday as the Silk Sox and Grosvenordale clubs reopen the age-old diamond rivalry for the eastern Connecticut title. Interest over the series is at higher pitch perhaps than ever before following the second Grosve- nordale victory over Skaters club of Webster In short. for the first time in years. the Reardon nine is favor ed to win the title with real honest to-goodness Grosvenordale team. With two twirlers, Hebert and Rash, ac- cepted as real outstanding southpaw fingers. the cotton towners have just dragged in the Slater and Quinebaug scalps in jig order.
 The Sox will also be crippled with the loss of three veterans, Rip Nell son, Weiss, and Red Bennett, each of whom have figured big in the past three series.
 Just who will be on the Sox start ing lineup remains to be seen. In any event circumstances point to a reorganized Putnam club. Manager Murphy has stated that the club will be made up solely of Putnam boys or players carried on the playing roster of the past Southern New England League.
 The tilt is scheduled to be called sharp at three by umpire Lebeau with Coderre of Grosvenordale on the bases.
