Following the game players and guests adjourned to Bardeck's hall, where another big event had been arranged by the banquet committee. Let it be said right here that the officers in charge of this end of the affair are entitled to all kinds of praise. It was a bountiful repast with plenty of trimmings. When the guests had taken their seats the members of the victorious. team marched into the hall while Lynch's orchestra played a military march. Imme- diately there was a cheer and when one of the members of the visiting team suggested three cheers for New Britain, it was in- stantly taken up by everyone in the hall. Three cheers for Meriden were then given. Captain _Thomas W. Grace was to: master. One of the frst speakers was of Meriden, who evidently thinks enough of his policem baseball team to accompany it to N Britain, a distance of several miles, which was in direct contrast to the interest mani- fested by the local city executive, who was not seen in the hall, while It is but a few steps from the West Main street temple. It was the case in vears gone by that the mayor usually could be found around some- where, but, then, things have changed. The party went on just the same yesterda: Mayor Donovan, who is a former local boy, spoke in a reminiscent way, telling of playing: baseball years ago with Tom Grace in Hocko's lot. He congratulated the New Britain team upon its victory and also the entire department upon its efficiencs He also paid a tribute to the New Britain fire department. Others from Meriden who spoke were Commissioners Frank Woods and Ray and Chief E. J. Landrigan. Chief Willlam J. Rawlings gave a corking fine talk. Clerk Joseph McGrail made a few remarks during which he took occasion to compliment Dave Moore upon his fine playing. Eddie McCarthy, sporting editor of the Meriden Record, gave recitations which were well rendered and generously applauded. In the cool of the evening Charley Johnson rendered some vocal gems, and a good time was had by all. THOMAS BETTER Automobile Racer Will Compete in Saturday’s 250-Mile Classic. Elgin, Ill., Aug. 26.—Joe Thomas, injured yesterday when his car over- turned while making a trial spin around the Eigin course, will com- pete in Saturday’s 250-mile race.
