Line-up Received Show: Several New
Players.
Tire lineup for the Norwalk team
has been received by Manager Moore
and the team will be considerably
strengthened when it comes to Darr-
bury next Saturday. Among the ad-
ditions to the team is O'Neil. a New
York American catcher. who will be
behind the bat for the visitors. O'Neil
caught the memorable game in Nor-
walk 'last season when “Sammy"
Smith pitched the Norwalk players to
victory over the Dunbnry team. Volk

Manager Moore learned yesterday
that he could not. get Gllnmrtin for
this week's game so he has engaged
John Reichman, of Brooklyn, to play
right. field. Reichman was formerly
with the New Haven team of the Con-
necticut Dengue, is an old Maujcr first
sucker and last season covered the in-
itial sack for palrbury for several
games that were played last season.
it was this player who with three on
bases in Norwalk last season made a
home run that sewed up the. Danbury
chances. He is a good fielder and re-
puted to be one of the best hitters ev-
er seen on the White street grounds.
Noonan. who has been doing duty
in right field for Danbury. is one of the
best fielders the team ever had, his
work being steady and sure. His in-
ability to hit the ball is his only draw.

on the home team Mr. Moore was ob-
liged to drop Noonair for a player who
could wield the stick.

tion last night between Manager
Moore and Manager Nash, Mr. Moore

MAY nor HAVE CONVENTION.
South Norwalk Firemen Have Other'
Plans in View for Next Year. '
Last night at the special meeting of
the Fire Department, an excursion and
a proposition to invite the State Fire-
men’s Association to hold their 1910
convention in South Norwalk were.
discussed at consldcrable length. but
not much action was taken.
The inviting of the Firemen's Assoc-
iation was left in abeyance for the
present for final decision until the con-
vention week. The proposition to hold -
an excursion did not meet with much
favor in \iew of the trip of Old Well
Hook and Ladder (‘ompuny to Fough-
keepsie next. month Putnam Hose
Company will also celebrate its anni»
versary next year and this caused
some hesitancy over the State Fire
men's convention being held here, with
a possibility that the two-celebrations
would be too much ,of an undertaking ‘
for one season.

bert W. Clark. of the South Norwalk

it Is believed that he is now the lead-
ing candidate for the presidency. to

the convention.
