SALVATION ARMY
 TO SEND BASKETS
Capt Oliver Has Big Job on His Hands This
 Year
THE NEED OF FUNDS

Captain Oliver of the local Sal-
 vatiOn Army has a big job on his
 hands, ana naturally he expects the public will realize this and assist
 him to make good. For some un-
 known reason, the matter of dis
 tributing Thanksgiving baskets to
 needy families is let to the Salva-
 ton Army this year. On other oc- casiOns different organizations were
 engaged in this 1audable work. so
 that the work was not heavy on
 any one organization. As usual,
 some of the fraternai societies will
 give out baskets, but these are
 never given any publicity. Last
 year in the neighborhood of 2,000 baskets were distributed by differ
 ent organizations, including 1000
 by the Mutual Aid. This year the Mutual ,Aaid wil confine itself to its usual weekly allowance, the Lincoln House will not distribute food, so that with the exception of what few others may do, the whole field will be left to the Sal- vation Army. Plans are under way Ito distribute 143 baskets. which means that the local unit of the
 Salvation Army will have to go in debt $250 to meet the need.
 So far this year only two cOntri- buttons have been sent. one of $S lfrom Miss Sarah l.. Moore of Wa ] tertown, and donation from K. w. | lTrowbridge of Roxbury. These are in addition to the kettle fund.
 Among the articles which will be included in the baskets given out by the Salvation Army tomorrow are mince meat, coffee, tea, toma- toes, corn, sugar, milk, raisins, pc l tatoes, cranberries, celery, bread, doughnuts, butter and onion. Each person who gets these items will be
 given slip to go to 2 store and get the kind of meat they want There will, of course, be restric- tions on their choice, but it is felt | this is better method than to give a fresh shoulder of pork where 2 smoked shoulder would be more appreciated. This can be furnished | for the same price.

The eighth game of the big

 unable to be on hand, and had ne

team will be in first place. He claims that credit for winning the games is due to Teddy Hes, his old buddy, who gives the team a pep talk each week before the game.
 Michael Goggin's "Rovers,' and John Fitzmaurice's '.Shamrocks'' seem to be fighting for the cellar position. but Michael says he. Is gradually getting out of Johns class. Last night the "Rovers" de- feated the "Shamrocks'' 34 to 29. Even though tied for next to last place, the "Rovers" are confident of going forward and leaving the "Shamrocks' behind, to battle it out with sScoopy" Carney's. Dare- devils. RHmor has it that John lost his four leaf clover, but he says that ever since Mike" Hart nett, his star player, went fishing a few weeks ago at New London. he can't seem to get his mind off of it. If he could only concern trate on "45", like he can on that fish, the "Shamrocks', would be in first place long ago.
 Now that we have Byrne's team on the tumble it is up to John Bowey's "Sligo Terrors'' to keep them tumbling as he claims they will when the teams meet next week. Bowey's star player, Chris Harmon, is raring to get shot al Byrnes and 1t can't come quick enough. Next week will mark the end of the first round and it looks as though the second round will be hotly contested. Standing of fha fQan1p f0 date.

DEMOCRATS IN SENATE START
 ORGANIZATION
Follow Policies of Prede-
 cessOrs in the Make-Up
 of Committees = Sen Bergin May Be President

Hartford, Conn, Nov 2-(UP- The democratic majority in the state senate has decided to con- tinue the republican policy of granting minority representation on all committees to the opposition party, it was understood here to- day. The republicans will be al- lowed to submit to the democrats a list of committee assignments which their members would pre- fer. Each senate committee will consist of two democrats, one of whom will be chairman, and a re- publican.
 In the house of representatives, the situation will be reversed. Sen. Frank s. Bergin, New Haven, min- ority leader in two sessions, is re- ported to be the choice of demo- cratic new guards for. president pro tenn of the senate. As sucn Bergin probably would appoint himself chairman of the important Judiciary committee, of which he was minority member two years ago. If Bergin is president pro tenn of the senate, Rep. John A Markham of Hartford, an oli guard, probably will be democratic leader in the lower branch.

New York, November 22 -- (UP) = All the jewels and ermine and beautifully gowned women cf the Metropolitan Operas most opulent openings were in evidence last night when society listened to the opening of a new season with Verdi's ''simon Boccanegra."
