JIM REYNOLDS STARS in the | ers Local Boy Is a Big Factor Victory of Sufficld School Over Rosbury, 36 to 32. Cheshire, March 1.—Suffield School came from behind in the second half here last night and won from Rox- bury school, 36 to 32. The local team got off to a 10-point lead but when Caldwell sprained his ankle and was forced to leave the surface, Woodford, who has been on the sick list, was inserted and started Suffield on its way to victory. At half time the visitors had cut the locals’ lead to two points, 15 to 17 and in the second half shots by Reynolds soon put Suffield out front. Reynolds and Duncan starred for Suffield, while Kline and Caswell were the big guns for the local team. Caldwell will probably be out of the game for the rest of the season.

An effort is be- ing > {o sign K. O, Rill Sweeney another local favorite, to meet Young | Gustavi of Bristol, a two-fisted past master of the slugging art with a deal of science to hoot, for the semi-final, In the preliminary go it is expected that Joey Kitson of Ken- sington, will clash with Georgie Lynch, the Meriden boy who gives promise of rising rapidly to the up- permost position in Denny McMahon's stable. In view of the fact that two local boxers and one from an adjacent town are on the card, it is expected that the revival of boxing here will be greeted by a capacity house. The performers in all three houts are mittsters of statewide repute, each of whom has an extensive following. Middleweight Champ Chief interest is centered, of course, in the main go. The battlers appear to be about evenly matched, although the local performer has an edge on the Norwich lad on account of his wider experience in the roped arena. Russell, however, has been travelling at a clip that indicates that he is a hoxer to be reckoned with. At the present time, he appears to be the only logical contender for the state middleweight championship, an honor that his followers insistently claim for COLORED HEAVIES TO BATTLE TONIGHT Harry Wills and “Kid" Norfolk Will Have Their First Clash in Ring at Madison Square Garden., New York, March A pugilist battle will be given In Madison Square Garden tonight by two heavy- weight performers, Harry Wills und “Kid" Norfolk.

The meeting of the Panther and the Thunderbolt in a fifteen round contest tonight may develop an op- ponent for Jack Dempsey, Wills has been considered by many as one of the most logical of the heavy- weights, But he has never before met Norfolk, PRINCETON AGAIN TRIMS DARTMOUTH Tigers Outclass Green (Quintet, Mo 19 Princeton, March 2.—Princeton de- feated Dartmouth in basketball here last night by the score of 27 to 19, in one of the best played and fastest Intercollegiate league games scen here this season.

Two years ago, Stewart Stickney of | £t. Louis, who has won a barrel full of cups during his golfing career, ar- ranged the prize list at the tran Mississippi championship held over the links of the Louis Country club, so that watches and other use- ful jewelry took the place of cups, Me declared that he would not help oth- er golfers to clutter up their attac with useless cups. The utilitarian type of prizes for goll contests has heen becoming more popular ever since. To Have Public Link: Boston, March 2.—This city, the first to have a municipal golf links, is to have an eighteen hole course for public play for the first time. — An- nouncement was made today by James B. Shea, chairman of the city park department, that the offer of Donald Ross, links architect and pro- fessional player, to lay out an 18-hole course at IFranklin Park had been ac- cepted and that the necessary fi- nancial provisions had heen made for extending the 9-hole system to one of 18 holes.

Summary: Princeton Dartmouth Klaess Cullen him. ussell has battled in the Nutmeg state for the past two years. Prior to that time he showed his wares in Wisconsin, where, in a matter of months, he arose from a position of a virtual “‘unknown” to middleweight champ of the state. Has Kayoed Ferguson Soon after coming to Connecticut he came to the fore hy Kkayoing Tracey Ilerguson of Wallingford. IPerguson gave the Norwich boy eral pounds handicap in weight. An effort was made shortly thereafter to match “Silent Mike” with Ferguson, but his manager balked on the ground that the local slugger was too heavy. Negotiations were then made for the services of Russell. In “Silent Mike,”” Russell will meet a man whom his managers agree is perhaps the toughest of his career. Needless to say, he will exert every effort to put across a win. The go is equally as important to the deaf and dumb battler, since it showing in this state since when he went a 10-round draw w Red Ames.

Y. Yale Golf (jhampion Quits College for Business New Haven, March 2.—Jesse W. Sweetser, of Bronxville, N. Y., who is regarded by many as one of the best golfers in the east, will be lost to Yale this spring. The former inter- collegiate champion has left college and entered business in a prominent bond house in New York, where he will stay until next fall, when he ex- pects to resume his course at New Haven. Sweetser's resignation from college came as quite a surprise, for it was expected he would not only participate in golf, but also was count- ed on to become one of the mainstays of the track team. The Ardsley youth, however, found he could omit a term work and still continue with his class next au- tumn, thereby gaining considerable experience in the business which he hopes to follow without sacrificing any of his chances at Yafe. Bad Weather Again Hinders Indians’ Work Cleveland, March 2.—Although it has stopped raining at Dallas, yester- day the weather was so cold that the Cleveland Indians were again deprived of their practice at Marine IVield, and a roller skating rink near the ball park offered their only opportunity to limber up according to advices re- ceived from Dallas.

Louis, Mo, March 2.—A fense of college athletes was offered by David Kinley, president of the University of Ilinois, in a luncheon address before the Chamber of Com- merce here today. The cducator did not condone the action of four letter men of the Uni- versity of Illinois for playing in a professional football game at Taylor- ville, 111, but stated that when it was considercd that only four out of the institution's ten letter men succumbed | {o the temptation, “the incident seems of much less magnitude.” Mr. Kinley asserted that not more than 2% per cent of the students of American universities are giving any reason for criticism of themselves or their institutions. 81— bt L Rivalry Existing. 96— 89— 282 92— 259 236 263 269 Karpinski « Sleath ..
