Smith Post, Veter- ans of Foreign Wars at the helm. At last night's meeting of the common council, application was made by the organization for a permit, and it was referred to the boxing commission. With plans working out satisfactorily, it is proposed to hold the bouts at [ Turner hall, March 17. John F. Willis has been asked to interest himself in promoting the bout, which is a step in the right di- rection toward a success of the ven- ture. At present it is hoped to se- cure Charle Pllkington, the Meriden “Flash” and Willie Murphy of Staten Island, for the star attraction. These two worthies clashed recently at New Haven at a bout held under the aus- pices of '“Heck’” Maher's Marlin A. C. Murphy was awarded the decision in ing, but P enalty nocessitited the | After 15 rounds of hard battling. bu the howl that has been made regard- ing the award by the Meriden fans, could not be drowned by an earth- quake. Pllkington since making Meriden his home, has made himself solid with the boxing fans in this vicinity. He is a performer who always gives the public a run for its money, and in no bout that he has performed in this section has there ever been any reason for criticism of his ef- forts. He took on Bammy Waltz of Hartford last summer at Hanover Park, and the lacing that he handed the Hartford boy greatly pleased those from this city in attendance at the bout. A few months ago he casi- ly outpointed Bobby Reimer at Hart- ford, after dropping the local boy for the count in the first round. Murphy is well known to many local men who served with him in the navy, while Uncle Sam was mak- ing the world safe for democracy, and before the prohibitionists gummed up the works.

Louisville, Ky., Feb. 17.—Entries for the Kentucky Derby, for three- year-olds at a mile and a quarter, closed last night. The prospects are, it was stated at the Loulsville head- quarters of the Kentucky Jockey club, that between 125 and 150 own- ors have entered thoroughbreds. The { number, it was stated. could not be dctermined, inasmuch those al- ready received had not been tabu- lated. Morocover, it was said, entries sent through the mail which bore post- marks prior to midnight last night would be accepted, probably occa- sioning further delay in announcing as the number. The entry fee is $25 with an additional $250 to start Derby this year will carry $50,000 in added money. The owner of the horse finishing second will receive $10,000, third $5,000 and\the fourth $2,000. The estimated value to the winner will be between $35000 and $40,000, WOULD REGULATE RACE.

It was one of the hest games ever playved in the Morningside zyvm. For the first thirteen minutes neither side | was able ta shoot a single basket, so strong was the defensive work of both teams. At Fourteen minutes Vogelin made the first basket from the middle of the floor. The half ended with Penn | leading by 8 points to 3.
