Rumors that ¢ community tennis tournament would be started in the | near future were widespread today and it is probable that the raquet wielder will soon form schedules which will bring into competition the net enthusiasts of Berlin for a cup which will be purchased through popular subscription. Berlin, although it cannot support | @& bascball league, is heartily in fa- vor of a tennis tournament between the town stars and a large attend- ance at any of the scheduled match- es is regarded as certain, It is pos- sible that admission will be ch warded to some worthy cause. Probably the forcmost local ama- teur tennis player of the town is Arthur Benson of East Berlin, has won many honors here and abroad. It is understood that he is in’ favor of a local tournament and that he would support : ment towards the end. Ha and Edwin Benson, 0 Berlin, are included in residents who would probably be seen on the taped courts if arrange- ments are completed. Robert Silsby of the Worthington ridge district is pointed as being another Berlinite whose work on the would attract many faus. The latest move for the tourna- ment is thought due to the n- nouncement of members of the American Legion baseball team to the effect that the league is tot- tering and seems due to crumble at any moment. Tennis enthusiasts state that some local athletic com- petition is needed and as past events have proved that baseball has gain- ed little favor in public interest, tennis will provide an avenue for the closer binding of local athletes. Town officials, leaders of the move state, are in favor ot some form of public tournament and it is gencrally believed that the ten- nis tournament, if realized, would obtain officlal recognition ¥fom the town fathefs. It has been suggested that an association be formed to complete arrangements for the pro- posed matches and that entrics be received for the tournament during the next few weeks. Others claim that some public or- ganization should eponsor the tour- nament as the Bolton-Kasica post took over the baseball league. In this manner, promoters state, more rapid action could be realized than by haphazard proccedure by any group of individuals. Another suggestion which has been forwarded by the tennis en- thusiasts mentions a junior tourna- ment for the youngsters of the town in order that all ages might take part in the competition. Sec- tional competition, with teams from each of the three districts is an- other suggestion which will recelve attention by any committee which might be appointed to care for the matter, they claim.

The | trip will be made in automobiles, starting from the church and Up- son’s corner as near 1 o'clock as possible. All planning to attend | should be at one or the two places at that hour. | On reaching the park, entrance | should be made from Dutton street, just beyond the ball field. The pic- nic grounds run off this street to {the left and all are asked to meet there for instructions. The early part of the afternoon will be given | over to the amusements provided | by the park. At 4:30 o'clock o pro- | | gram of races will be carried out| in which all are invited to particl- | pate. Following this, all are asked | to gather promptly at the picnic | grounds for the final event of the day. Team Dropped At the meting of the officials of | the inter-church league ot New Bri- {tain which was held last evening !at the New Britain Y. M. C. A, it | was voted that the indoor baseball team of the Kensington Congrega- would be dropped { tional church | from the league enrollment. No one | | nt from the local squad | [to,: 1 for the measure, but past | ! déclarations by Coach Lewls A. | Griffith anticipated the measure for | the past month, It was voted that any games which should have been contested by the local squad up until now | would be declared forfeited imme- diately and that future scheduled games would be credited to the op- ponent as scheduled. It was voted | i that the regular assessment charges !would not be levied against the lo- cal squad. Contliction in the personnel of th sott ball team and other aggrega tions of the town is Coach Griffith's reason for the abandonment of the league. He states that the move was made in order that more important Yeams might not be deprived of | their men on practice days. Pickett-Boardman s Ellen Boardman, daughter of and Mrs. C. J. Boardman ot hington ridge and George Pick- son of Mrs. G. A. Pickett of Terin will be married at ngon (o-‘ morrow at the summer hon of Mrs. Toardman's brother, Franklin Holland of Montreal, known as Rock Ledge Cottage, at Woodmont, Conn. Rev. Samuel A. Fiske, pastor of the Berlin Congrgational church, will iciate. Attend Camp Meeting A large number of members of | | the XKensington Methodist church | attended a service at the Plainville Camp grounds last evening. The delegation was headed by Rev. May B. Lord, pastor of the local church. The regular Thursday evening mid- week service was omitted to allow members of the church to attend the service in Plainville. Francis E. Brennan's Funeral The funeral of Francis E. Bren- nan of New Rochelle, N. Y., brother of Rev. John C. Brennan, pastor of St. Paul's church, Kensington, was held this morning at 10 o'clock from the church-of the Blessed Sacra- ment in that city. Interment took place at Greenwich. The South Main street, New Brit- n, highway was opened to traffic this morning, doing away with the tortuous detour through South and | stanley streets. The change is a welcome one to local bus activitics. Busses resumed accurate schedule time running with the opening of the macadam roadway and harmony reigns again for a short time. The motto of lecal motorists and bus oc- cupants today seems to be “Wait till they start in on the main highway.” Game Postponed The scheduled baseball game be- tween the Kensington Congregation- al church team and the Plainville Y.
