The curtain raiser for the local High school baseball nine will be pulled off next Saturday in New Haven. Six men of New Haven's last season's nine are in this year's lineup, and Captain Cabellus expects, therefore, that his men will be forced | to play one of the season's hardest ' games. New Britain will probably start with Dudjack on the mound and | Hultgren behind the bat. The former, who was used for the first six in- nings of the practice game with the Russell & Erwin team, falled to favor the shop leaguers with a single hit. About twelve men will probably be taken along on Saturday’s trip. The newly organized tennis team will experience its first conflict on i Friday of this week, when the play- 'ers journey to Watertown to take the measure of the Taft school. Cap- tain Porter has been drilling his men in the gymnasium for some time so that the chances for an opening vic- tory may not be minimized by poor condition.

Colonial hotel. Truesdale, who was with the St. Louis Browns in 1910, is a crack at fielding the po- sition—what the New Yorks need most now in the person of a second baseman—and a batter of about .240 calibre as a major leaguer. He hit .260 with Buffalo last year. Trues- dale was to report to Chance today and may play tomrorow. BOUTS IN WATERBURY. Ritchie's Challengers Will Meet morrow Night in Brass Olty.
