Tennis is steadily growing in'popu-
laxity in Norwalk as well as in Bridge-
port and other cities. In fact, so pop-
ular has the game become that'there’
is a considerable clamor among lovers
of the mtttor the building of one or
more public courts either by the city
or citizens who are interested infini-
provement of the city.
That tennis is recognized by factory
managers as one means of keeping
employes satisfied is shown in' the
establishment of courts by a few local
factories including the Norwalk Tire
and Rubber company which has mo
courts. In good weather. the factory
courts are always in use and many a .
profitable hour. particularly to the
health of players. is spent in this sport
which is particularly a. strenuous game
for the building up of the body. The
courts at the Norwslk Tire and Rub—
ber company are in excellent condition
this year. Several hundred dollars
worth of clay was worked into the
courts last season so that today the
(2311:!!! are hard and last.

ization tanned exclusively pflhose in<

growths or the increase in popularity

Thc Mayflower Juniors won the first
game of the season from the Eagle A.
0.. yesterday, on the Wicke lot. 7 Both
pitchers held the hitting down. The
feature of the game was Ericson‘s
three-baggcr. Chantos pitchbd fine
ball. but his support failed at the crit-
ical time. The Mayflower Junior's
support could not be excelled. Thom-
as. the Junior's first baseman. made an
excellent running catch in the fifth
inning. The Juniors will play the
Eagles a return game at a later date.
They hope to duplicate theirlvictory...
Chantos got seven strikeouts; while
O'Brien got nine. A- .
