An inci- deént worthy of note occurred at the repubiican caucus, where a committee ©of men had been appointed to nomi- nate candidates for the various offices to be filled by men and the women were given an opportunity to nominate their own candidates for positions which were fllled by women.

Connley and James Ellsworth were elected as dele- gates to the senatorial convention. W. H. Webster and George Baldwin were chosen to represent Berlin at the congressional convention, while H. C.

A meeting of all local athletes has been called for 7:30 o'clock Thursday evening to be held at Kingo's store in Kensington, for the purpose of arousing interest in the formation and organization of a football team in this town to be known as the Acorn team Plans call for the election of a manager if enough men are in at- |tendance and it is possible that a |discussion will be held in regards to securing the services of a first class coach so that the team, when com- pleted, will make up one of the fast- est group of players “vho have ever played under ‘the name of "Acorn” lon the field. The team was organized last year and several good games were played although the players did not get the proper support from the local resi- jdents. Anyone interest and who will later wish to try out for the team is asked to attend the meeting tomor- row night. It the plans of the organizers go through several games will be ar-| ranged to be played in this town and the support of the townspeople will be asked. Those in charge feel that the results of the legion track meet, which proved that Berlinites are in- terested in sports, will do a great deal towards securing the support of local residents. Announcements in regards to the players, captain, man- ager and where the games will le played will be made at a later date.’ Dies In Fairfield. Word has been received here of the death of Mrs. S. H. Olmstead Monday evening in, Fairfield, Conn. She was 82 years of age antl had suffered for many months with heart *trouble.
