KIWANIS TEAM
Baseball Game - to Be
Played for Charity
Promises to Be “Bat-
tle of Century.”
There’s going to be a big fight in
Norwalk. No blood will be spilled
but this bottle will be one of the
hardest fought of any ever staged in
this city.
The Kiwanis baseball team egged
on by the entire membership of the
Kiwanis club has challenged tbe
Toreadore team. And the whole
world. if it cares to come. will wit-
ness this fight and charity will be
benefltted.
The Kiwanis club is sore, not phy-
simlly, but mentally. Its team was
licked by the Toreadores last Thurs-
day at. the Kiwanis outing and the
members want .R-E-V—E—V~G-E.
Hence the challenge.
The game will be staged at one
of the big ball parks and the pro-
ceeds “ill go to the Day Nursery.
That it will be another "Battle
of the Century" is known from ihe
remarks on both sides.
When Attorney Richsrd Ireland.
the star moundsman of the Tores-'
dore nine was asked what h’s thought
of the return game with the Ki-
wanis club, he said in s. loud voice:
“My arm is in much better condi-
tion now that lt'wns on last Thurs-
day afternoon. and the Kiwanis
players should know what that
means. We will not have Jawn
Cuneo to contend with behind the
bat in this game and that-will be s.
great help to our outfit. szn has
agreed to hold down s place on the
bench for this game and keep the
bats straight. The rest of tile team
is ready to go and I’m golnxflto let
you in on a. little secret. " Lyn-.11
Bracifen and Paul Connery will be in
the line- -up for this game. That will
mean added strength. I 0113'! see

Samuel G. Adams. Charlton Now-
born and William Adams, to appear
in the Superior coourt at Bridgeport,
Tuesday morning. September! at 9
o'clock. The ordr was served by
Constable John A. Mills.
It directs'f the district to show
cause why it should claim the right.
privileges and franchise of a cor-
porate existence.
The other three defendants are
summoned to show cause why they
should function as commissioners of
the district.
Four months ago. Mr. Brush
brought action questioning the le-
gality of the creation of the district.
It was alleged that discrimination
was shown in .as much as property
owned by the Connecticfit company
u‘nd leased to the Roton- Point Im-
provement association was not in-
cluded within the boundaries of the
district. It was further charged
that the three commissioners were
illegally elected and were further il-
legally sobering into contracts and
saddilng expenses upon the district.
A temporary injunction was ap-
plied for and granted. The injunc-
tion was served not only upon the
three [commissioners but also upon
members of the Board of Estimste

around the southwest point of the
island and was finally dashed upon
the rocks in front of the McLac‘nlan
cottage! The vessel rwss slaved in

Reports Good Crops,

Autos Selling Fast
Booming business in the Iutomo-
bile industry was the report brought
back to Roz-walk yesterday by
Charles H. Harris, local glass manu-
facturer. after a. trip to many of the
auto factories in Racine, Kenosha.
Chicago and Toledo.
“Business conditions are very fav-
arable in the Middle West." said Mr.
Harris. The automobile industry is
one of the best indexes of returning
prosperity.
"Good crops have given the far-
mers plenty of ready money and
they are buying new cars with as part
of it, knowing it_to be an, excellent
investment.
“The demand for cars in the farm-
ing belt is so gr’eat'that all the duids
being turned out by the factories are
going into the interior and very few
coming to the coast.
"Another indication of the busi-
ness boom." declared Mr. Harris, “is
that sum manufacturers are de-
manding all their materials to be
shipped to them by express. '
Mr. Harris stated conditions in the
Middle .Wcst resembled the high wa-
ter :11er period of 1921. In his
opinlpn good boldness will continue.
The trend in the‘, my industry to—
day, according to him, is toward the
closed car and the makers the turn-
ing out sedans at s. prics little above
that formerly charged for the open
