ey m | Grange Cast to Present Play LARGE CELEBRATION Anaiversay of the Found- ing of Order of Nems " woweki e chosen éwr::: :r“::a 4 w . :--mu to devise and plans for the city-wide cele- Bration of the 25th anniversary of founding of the order of nuns the Polish erphanage at a gen- moeting held last night at the Heart house on ‘street, which was attended nearly 100 representative mem- Dere of the leading Polish church and civic societies and a number of business men. Other members of the committee are: former Alderman Frank Zapatka, Leon Gorski, Stanley Borawski, Bronislaw Blogoalawski. P. Ssymanski, J. Tomassewski, Miss Anna Romejko and Mrs. 8. Gwlazda. Paul Nurcsyk, chairman of the exe- cutlve committee presided over the eeting. : One of the more important things discussed was the necessity of creat- ing city-wide interest in the project by inviting other nationalities and denominations, which had In a large measure supported the or- phanage and the sisters, to take part in the celebration. It was suggest- ed therefore that the general com- mittee get in touch with the leading societies, the clergy and civic or- ganizations and solicit their interest in the project. Likewise, it was sug- gested that the committee issue an appeal to all Polish parishes throughout the state to organize sub- committees for the purpose of rais- ing funds to help pay off the debt that clouds the orphanage, It is the aim of the committee-at-large to make this celebration a memorable one, by raising sufficient funds to ease the financial difficulties with which the nuns have been battling in an effort to carry on their work and furthering their activities in aiding homeless children not only of this city but also of other communities. In order to bring financial aid to to the orphanage on the occasion of its 25th birthday, the executive com- mittee suggested several means through which money can be raised, which the general committee will take under consideration with the wnderstanding that the suggestions | be carried out. Among the various ‘ways through which the committee will seek to raise funds are: a tag day, which would be held sometime during the month of July; a series “Nancy Anna Brown's Folks,” a three act comedy drama, will be presented by the Burritt Grange Dramatic club at 1. 0.

To carry out each of | these suggestions, the general com- mittee will have the full power of selecting special committees from among the citizens to further the plans. The suggestion to solicit out- side aid met with general approval and for this purpose a state commit- tee will be selected whose purpose will be to organize sub-committees in the leading Polish parishes throughout the state. The next meeting of the commit- tec-at-large will probably take place some day next week, at which time the general committce will report what progress was made and which of the plans were furthered. for th‘_e Hughes Sails for Europe To Take World Court Post New York, May 2 (M—Charles vans Hughes, former secretary of state, sailed late yesterday on the Cunard liner Mauretania, en route to Geneva to take up his duties as judge of the world court, The court will hold a session be- | ginning May 15.

Tomorrow the eastern clubs of the American circuit will head west for their first invasion of that territory. In the National league the invasion of the east by the western quartette f clubs starts this afternoon at Phil. elphia where Joe McCarthy's C! cago Cubs unlimber their bati against the Phillies, The other National league teams swing into action in this section to- morrow and Friday while the eastern American league teams make their western debut on the latter date. Chicago fans will watch with fear- ful interest the eastern debut of the Cubs. Not that the Phillies are or- dinarily a dangerous team—but Bert Shotten’s men constitute a dire threat insofar as Chicago is con- cerned. Last year the Cubs moved into Philadelphia on Aug. 6 in the van and moving fast. Phillies won four straight and Chicago never re- covered from the shock. Those four games just cost the Cubs their chance at the pennant. In all Chicago won but four out of 11 games at Philadelphia in 1928. ‘The sever games they lost would have been a big help as they pounded down the stretch, vainly trying to overtake the leading 8t. Louis Car- dinals and the second place New York Giants. Intereat in the Cubs is high throughout the east because of their reputed strength with the willow and the fact that they are pre-season fav- ories to win the flag. Especially I8 this true here in New Face Disfi; Bl With Healed by Cuticura. NEW FRITAIN DATLY HERALD, THURSDAY, MAY 3, 102t York where the fans figure them as the team the Glants must beat if they are to return to the pennant- winning class. The Cubs make thel 1939 metropolitan debut in Flatbush season clashes of the season, follows. The Yankees today are host to the Washington Senators and tomorrow will ind them speeding westward for their Friday game with the Chicago White S8ox. Washington, at the same time, will be en route to Cleveland. The Athletics and Red Sox start to 8t. Louis and Detroit, respectively, after thelr game at Boston today. The Cincinnati Reds and the 8t. Louis Cardinais open in the east to- morrow, the former at Brooklyn and the latter at the Polo Grounds here. Pittsburgh opens at Boston Friday. ‘The Braves, out in front in the Na- tional at the first turn will get their acid test within the next two weeks. It they remain at head of the pro- cession after playing Pittsburgh, St Louis, Cincinnati and Chicago in suc- ceasion they will have won for them- selves the rank of contenders. If, however, the strike a tartar in the western combination, it. will be pretty safe to mark them for the discard and a spirited battle to place as high in second division as pos- sible. In the American league, however, there is no obvious reason to expect the 8t. Louis Browns, leaders at the end of the lap, to fold up and re- tire. The Browns have been playing consistently good ball in the west and should be able to hold their own in New York, Philadelphia or W ington while Boston should offer no especial problem. The Browns, with Washington, were the pre-season dark horses and seem to be justifying the faith—or. the chance—that caused several critics to name them as leading con- tenders for the honors now resting with the Yanks. 8t. Louis will enjoy the advantage of meeting the easterners on famil- far ground at Sportsman’s park and should receive their sternest test sev- eral weeks later when they start their first jaunt through this section.
