The strong Scan- dia eleven will take on the Man. chester Recs at Manchester, and the Hartford Soccer club will go to Waterbury to play the Brass City Americans.
 The Americans will probably take the field as favorites follow ing last Sundays fine exhibition against the Scandals, although the Soccer club has been seeking new players and the teams may be rated evenly before game-time Sunday.
 Some spectacular contests are also promised in the Hartford County Junior league, with the German Juniors playing the Man. chester Olympics at the German grounds in Glastonbury, the Hasco Rangers meeting the Chance Vought Juniors Con Q field to be selected later), and the East Glas- tonbury Tigers entertaining the North Ends at East Glastonbury.

|MID-ATLANTIC
 | PLAYERS READY | FOR BIG TIME
Many Recruits to Test Their Skill in
 Majors

Columbus. o.-(UP) = A group of promlsing youngsters in the Mid-Atlantic league are making strong bids for berths higher up the baseball ladder next year.
 Five youthful pitchers, a couple of outfielders, Q second base com bination and one or two receivers are due to graduate to higher base- ball on the basis of their this years performances.
 During the last eight years many of the present day major leaguers began their ascent from the Mid-Atlantic. Notable among these are Joe Cronin, Washington Senator's manager; Jim Collins and Joe Medwick of the St Louis Cardinals; and Tommy Bridges, Frank Doljack, Irwin Fox and Gerald Walker of the Detroit Tigers.
 Among the bright prospects are five pitchers - Wayne LaMaster, Charleston; John Van De Nicer. Dayton; Al Milnar, Zanesville, Wicker, Wheeling. All but Thomas are left-handers.
 Of these Milnar has perhaps the brightest prospects. Not long ago he struck out IS Indian bat ters in an exhibition game and, being the property of those self same Indians, is almost certain to go to the training camp next spring.
 Walter Millies, of Dayton, ap- pears to have Q good chance to go higher as a catcher. He is a cap- able receiver, with a good throw ing arm and bats consistently.
 John Buddy" Hassett, one of the many collegians signed by the Yankees this spring, has been playing and batting well at Wheel ing, Yankee farm.
