NEW BRITAIN DAITLY HERALD, FRIDAY, —_— Baseb@anding | With all the criticism which has been levelled at New Britain with regard to the recent L on regional Junior baseball series, one ray of sunshine has at last broken through the dark clouds his is a letter re- | ceived by Howard Timbrell from the | commander of Providence Post, No. 1, of Providence, R. I, expressing thanks for the treatment accordcd the team and its manager in thi city. The letter reac “In the name of Providenc | No. 1, American Legion, I wish to | expr thanks to you and the city of New Britain for the cordial wel come and the many courtesies | shown to our junior eball (L‘-Jlll" and its manager, Mr. Lournier. | incerely yours, DUNCAN LANGDOX Comimande was one of the de- in the series, having | o the first day.

The sting of defeat by another team, in this case | at least, has not been visited upon | New Britain or its committee of Le- nnaires and citizens. In Provi- , there is no case of | ‘'sour grapes.
