Berlin News ATHLETIC MEET S 70 BE HELD AJG. 19 Postmaster Delaney Will Direct Games at (}ommumty Grounds GUARANTORS PAY Dres0IT Elcven Suapporters, However, Stil! Owe Money to Association — Boys Plan Trip to Lake Congamond — Community Asso. Mecting—Briefs. What promises to be the greatest athletic event cver staged in Berlin will take place on Saturday, August 19, when the Bolton-Kasica post, Am- erican Legion, will stage its first an- nual track meet at the community grounds on Berlin street. It had peen originally planned to hold the . event on August but. due to the fact that the date would conflict with an event in Meriden, the committee has decided to hold the affair one week earlier. The general committee in charge of the meet met at the T. A. B. hall in Kensington last evening with DPost- master W. [". Delaney of New Britain. Mr. Delaney will act as director of the games at the field and he dis- cussed his plans for the various events with the legion committee last night The meet has been sanctioned by the A. A. U. and there will be open events for. members of this organiza tion. There will a!so be several c ed events as well as events for the local athletes. = The meet is purely for amateur ath- letes although there 1y be a few professional athletes who will be will- ing to come to Berlin to give some ot their exhibition work. Seven cvents have been arranged by the committee in charge for the members of the A. A. U These events will be open to athletes who are members of this association. The first of the seven and the one event which will open the activities for the day will be a modified mara- thon race from the City Hall in New Britain to the community grounds on Berlin street and twice around the track, which will be made at the grounds. 8 The second event in the A. A. U. meet will be a 100 yard dash, the third a 220 yard dash, the fourth a 440 yard dash, the fiftth a running high jump, the sixth a Tunning broad jump and the last a 12 pound shot put. ! The closcd events will.give mem- bers of the looal post, other local or- ganizations and the ‘boys and girls of the town an opportunity to ehow what they can do in the world of athletics, Closed Events A relay race will head the list of the closed events at the meet. This race will be open to members of any Amrican Legion post in the - state. The second event will be a 100 yard dash for any man in the towns of Berlin, East Berlin or Kensington. The girls of the town will have a chance to show the bovs what tl < can do as the third event in the clos- ed contest will be a 60 yard dash for them' only. The fourth event will be in the form of a 75 yard dash for the boys only. Plans have also been completed for a relay race which will be held for the benefit of any local organization fncluding the St. Paui's T. A. B. so- ciety, the Men's Lyceum, Kensingion Iirotherhood, Terlin Bible class and any others whose members would care to participate in this event. Entries Close August 12 entries into the above named close on August 12, ac- All events will | cussed announcement made this morning, The entries are to be sent to Harry McKeon, Kensington, previous to this time. Suitable Prizes Offered. That the legion plans to make ‘this| event the greatest of its kind in the| history of the town is shown by t.2 fact that no expense has been spared | to offer suitable prizes to the various| winners. | The first prize in the modified mar- | athon race will consist of a solid gold watch with silver cups for the second and third prizes. The prizes for the open events in the A U. contest | will consist of a N\\Pr cup for Yth first, silver medal for the second, and a bronze medal for the third. Suitable prizes have also been se- cured for the local participants in the events, but they have not been an- nounced by the conmmittee in charge. Tennis ~nd Baseball. In addition to all of the above named events, there will be several! terinis ournaments. Arthur Henson‘ has been named chairman of the!: committee to arrange for these cvents, There will also be the. much dis- | baseball game. between the| players of Kensington and kEast Ber- lin. James McCormick of Kensington, pitcher for the New Dritain K. of C. ®eam, will probably be captain of the team which will play the Fast Ber- lin lads. It is expected that there will be a surprise in store for local| baseball fans when they see the game as many old timers are planning to show their speed with the Kensing- ton outfit. The event will wind up with an en- tertainment and dancing in the even- ing. The committee in charge will meet on the community grounds this evening at 8 o'clock to look the place over and make plans for the layout of the grounds on that day. Another meeting of the commit- tee will be held at the T. A. B. hall in Kensington on Friday evening of | this week at § o'clock to make fur- ther plans for the meet. All mem- bers are requested to attend this gathering. Guarantors Pay Deficit. All but 11 guarantors paid their share of the chautaugua deficit at a meeting held in the Peck Memorial N~ brary in Kensington last evening Each guarantor was assessed towards his share of the payment it is felt by the committee that ir much as it has been some time since the chautanqua ‘played in Berlin, each one should pay his share im- mediately. Clarence Baldwin, treasurer of association, was authoriged at meeting to collect the money from the 11 who have not paid and straighten out the financial affairs of the organization. Thirteen guarantors loaned the as- sociation about $150 in order to make| the deficit good with the chautauqua people hefore they left town It is said that it will not be possible to pay back this money until all of the 52 guarantors have paid their share. Following the husiness meeting| there was a brief discussion as to hav- ing the chautauqua return to Berlin next year but.no action was taken It was felt by membhers of the com mittee that the people of the town should show more interest in the chautauqua if they are desirous- of having it return another year. It is felt by many, however, that the chautauqua will not play in Ber- lin next year unlees a representative of that organization comes to town and makes a hard drive to put the affair across. i This year maffé the second year for chautauqua in Derlin and it was not a paying proposition at either of its angagements. Last year the deficit was larger than this, but it is said that this was due to the fact that there were only 27 guarantors as compared with 52 for this year Plan Trip to Lake. | J. C.
