A, in this city tomorrow night at 8:30 o'clock and it is expected that the circuit will be increased to an eight team loop. The team met last week and arranged a tentative schedule until the circuit could be completed. At the present time there are six teams entered in the loop but be- cause of the Interest shown in the proccedings by a number of other teams, it was decided to hold the time for receiving applications, open until this week. It is probable that the Pirates of this ci'y, managed by Kenneth Saunders and coached by Charlie Miller, will represent this city in th league. The two local men are in. terested in the circuit and the en- trance of another local team {n league play will be welcomed by the fans. The Corbin Red Sox are already in the Central Connecticut league but as that team alternates on Sun- day games at Willow Brook park with @he Pirates, the two outfits will not conflict. The Paul's team of Kensington is also entered in the circuit and the entrance of the Pi- rates will serve to create great ri- valry between these two outfitsy At tomorrow night's meeting, a schedule committee will be appoint- ed and other details of the league will be worked out. The circuit has Dbeen playing baseball for the past few weeks and large crowds have been turning out to watch the games in the various towns. Other entries the league are Watertown, Water- ville, Derby, Meriden, Seymour and Kensington. Simsbury and Plain- ville are also probabie applicants for a place in the league. The meeting tomorrow night will be held In the Y. M. C. A, at $:30 | o'clock.

He has reorganized his lineup complete- al game of | | | | | | | | | | tly and will spring a surprise on the ; Falcons in the Saturday clash. Just who the pitchers will be has not yet been revealed by the man- agers.

Kensing- ton hasn't yet won a game and the { Falcons have lost only one contest. However, records mean little when /these two teams clash. Sunday, the Falcons will meet the | Indian Orchard team of Massachu- setts at St. Mary's field and this will malke the second tongh game in as| ! many days for the local team.

The Union Works got off to a bad start when Burns who started in the | box for the first time this year walked five men in the first two in- nings, allowed four hits and his mates erred twice behind him. One of the hits was a home run into right field by Tommy istasio. Mickey Huber_ occupied mound for the Unfon Works touched up for only two hits while he walked two men. TIn ad- dition to this, he struck out eight men in the seven innings played. Not only were the Union Works blanked, but they also failed to get a man around to sccond. Huber's slants had the batters puzzzied and | very few balls were hit to the out-| field. Lagerlof on second base for the losers with an unassisted double play and a bare-handed stop of a | drive over second by Jack Wright, | featured in the feld. Joe Jackson for the Corbin team had a perfect day at bat with five hits in five trips, one of them being a double, while Preisser was close behind with | three bingles out of four. “Goody" Preisser tried to steal home in the first inning and was out by a mile.
