A In spite of the rain and the cool weather, Manager Archie Molleur had a squad of candidates for places on the Taftville baseball team out on the Providence grounds, . Saturday afternoon, and until cut short by the football game. the men got in some lively practice. Backer Larowe was out, but not in his old position for he has an ldea that he wants an infield job, and he was scooping things up at second bas: There are three candldates for catch. er—William Emerson, who last sea- son was in the Norwich-Taftville out- fleld, but who made good behind the bat in his Academy days: Dennis Mur-. phy, who s a mew face, but shows promise, and Rat Tetreault, small but speedy and well versed in baseball tac- tics, But whem it comes to taking care of Boucher’s slants, for it is ex- tremnly. Doobaie thet the New Bed- ford pitcher will be retained, it would seem that Backer is the man required to_hold down the job. The pitchers were not out Saturday, although Simino was there looking on. Henry Tetreault was back at first and he covered the initial corner in old- time style. Hoefer at short, although left hapd. showed good form and in the outfield there were Charles Mc- Sheffery, who is just back from Prov- idence; Biily McNulty and Billy Nolan, two old-time piayers, who were out to join in the fun, and Liepold, and N. Desmarais, two other Taftville men Who showed up well. Judging from the first appearance of the men, and from the t that there are about as many more who did not come out Saturday, it seems as if there is plenty of good material from which to pick a first class team. LORRAINES WIN. Norwich Association Football Team Loses Final Game, 5 to 3. The Norwich association football team put up a clever, aggressive game against the Lorraines of Westerly on Saturday afterncon om the Providence street grounds at Taftville, but were defeated 5 to 3, in the final game of the the season. A big crowd watched the play. Westerly had the adventage in the first half, but Norwich tied the score early in the second. With the Norwich team looking like winners. a little carelessness on the part of the home defence gave Westerly their op- portunity and they put through the two goals that won the game, Norwich won the toss for ends, and Westerly kicked and carried the ball into Norwich territory and after a few minutes’ play scored a somewhat soft goal, a high drooping shot sailing un- der ‘the bar, taking the goal keeper by surprise. Shortly after this, J. Corner had to retire, having sprained his ankle and had to leave the fleld. The visitors kindly allowed J. Erown of Taftville to substitute. Westerly till continued having all the play and soon added a second and third goal Norwich strived hard for a goal and at last met with success from some nice passing amongst the forwards who rushed the ball and goal keepers clean through and after two minutes more play scored mumber two. Half time was called, the score Dbelng 3 to 2 in favor of Westerly. After a five minutes’ interval play was again resumed and it was evident that Norwich meant business this hal?, as they soon had the game tied. Westerly this half scarcely crossed midfield, but so grandly did the West erly defence play that Norwich was unable to increase the score, although the Norwich forwards showed some beautiful passing and fine trick play. From breakaways the Westerlys scor- ed two other goals and a fine game ended in their favor by 6 to 3. FIRST BASEMAN COMING. Louis Ensling from Providence—Sea- son Tickets to Home Games.
