Both Hayves and Waltz have been appearing regularly Connecticut rings, but the best comparison of them was produced by Billy Murphy, of Staten Island, who holds a popular decision over Benny Valgar. A few weeks ago Murphy and Hayes boxed | 12 gruelling rounds in Waterbury and | at the termination of the go Murphy was given the verdict by a narrow ' margin, A week later Waltz tackled Murphy in the same ring and, after | another humming 12:round bout, | Murphy won the wverdict. A Waltz- Hayes bout looked like the goods and the Lenox Athletic club of the Silver City immediately grabbed the match. Hartford fans, who think Waltz is capable of winning over the best in the business, since he ‘‘went” 10 rounds with Joe Lynch, will follow in Meriden fans, who recently saw Haves score a knockout over Johnn Shugrue, will bank on Hayes to win Sweency on Card. In a 10-round bout on the card, Kid Kaplan, of Meriden, who has pol- ished off a number of Connecticut lishtweights during the past year. will go against Battling Green, of Hartford. Green has been boxing much of lale and he and Kaplan should offer a gzood go. K. O. Sweeney, of New Britain, and Tracy Fenguson, of Wallingford, who will clash at 148 pounds, are going to open the show with an eight-round | bout.

March Carpentier, French heavyweight Eu- ropean boxer gained a host of Am- erican admirers here early today by his display of speed and clevern in an informal shirt-sleeve sparrin exhibition with Major Anthony J. Drexel Biddle of Philadelphia, before a thousand guests at a dinner of the International Sporting club. It was the French boxer’s exhibition in this country and he was gziven a rousing ovation. The ‘“match” of rounds was staged ring erected in the center of the IHotel Commodore ball room. Tex Rickard was referce. The boxers merely removed their coa and collars. At the outset the Frenchman played lightning speed his footwork and feinting being ve clever. Major Biddle an amateur boxer of considerable ability, scarce- Iy landed a blow, Carventier duck- ing his swings easily. No hard blows were struck by either boxer. Al- though the Frenchman was not in action long enough to gauge his real ability, expert observers were con- vinced that he is one of the most re- sourceful fighters especially on the defensive, that Kurope produced in years. Carpentier made a b pressing his appreciation of ception, and said he hoped Jack Dempsey. When he “may the best man win" he cheered to the echo. . The Boxer's 17 year old bride was seated in one of the balconies and she was cheered and presented with flowers. PENN.

Three good 10-round hout will make up an attractive program, and as all six men are evenly matched, a fine night's entertainment seems to be in store for the crowd. Local interest centers in the “‘Silent Mike” Doran and Red Ames bout. The deaf mute, who has taken up his residence in this city, has becn dis- playing such form in his training that those who have looked him over are unanimous in their opinion that the Hartford boy is in for a beating. In order for Doran to accompl t feat, he will have to travel some, as Red is a_tough bird to pluck. Gene Haggerty, of this city, gets his chance to redecm himself for the K.
