The Nash Engineering company
may put out a baseball team this

a try out with the Bridgeport club

up the list or the players. It is like-
ly that Freddie Hart. star short-
stOp of the High school team. will
be with‘ the Nash company after he
graduates in June.
The employees would like to see
a team and it is believed there
would be considerable interest in
the games. No definite plans have
turday afternoons and the ques-

the course of the next. week or so.
it such a league is arranged the
