While opinions y differ as to Hays' judgment in L night's game, there is no ques- tion’ bat what his ‘rulings were in favor of neither team. And whether they were or not, it i no excuse for a crowd of fans to uitempt to take digect action. It is action 1ike last night's that is gly- ing New Britain a black eye about the state. Already other towns are looking on New- Britaln as a place where the crowd does not give a visitor a fair shake. 4 privlah L8 From the poor showing made by the Nats last night it is obvious that the locals had better hang up their shoes. ” Saturday night the Hartford Dixles come down here for another game. . i Tonight's game with the Meriden West Sides has been cancelled by the 8llver City bungh, Dutch Kent of Hartford and Al Ventres of this city will wrestle the best two out of three to a finish in Somersville tonight. Ugo Frigerio of Italy, Olympic walking champion, demonstrated Tuesday night in a New York race that he was fit for his 10,000 meter challenge race with the American champion, Willie Plant, on Saturday. Three times Frigerio has falled to match the American at ' distances shorter than five thousand meters, On Tuesday the Italian faced Joe Pearman of the New York A. C, a veteran of the heel and toe game, which has gained great popularity during the indoor season about to close. Pearman led for several laps and easily shook oft the challengers of his antagonist until a mile had been covered, when Frigerio stepped into the van and refused to be head- ed.” He finished a good 70 yards in front of Pearman. This distance wis 2,500 meters, rather short for the Italian, and many track followers expeeted to see’ him 1eft behind. Pearman is report- ed to have sald before the race that Frigfrio would be fully 40 yards be- hind at the end. But the man from Milan showed a spirit of competition that had not heen apparent in his previous “contests. - There were no smiles for the sidelines, no waving to Italian frieads in the gallery. He hent to'the task and made it easy. Frank Dodson, a right handed Dress Up—Now!

From Dod- #on they obtaived three small hits in three innings, but no runs. Lew Paluso of Salt Lake City proved in New York last night that he is better as a lightwelght than as a featherwelght, despite the fact that he lost a ten round decision to Bid Terris, once considered a worthy contender for the division titje va. cated by Benny Leonard. Several newspapermen gave t ajority of the rounds to Paluso, & hard hitter and almost as fast as the flashy Ter. ris, but the last round finish of this New York man undeubtedly won the Jjudges' opinion. Yoyng Jake “Bchaefer did not want the opeéning, or break shot in| the game against Erich Hagenlach- | er in which he shattered all tourna- ment records by running out a 400 point game from spot. Hagenlach- er later told friends that he as well as Schaefer tried to avold the win- ning of the bank, but that Schaefer won by a fraction of an inch. “Never again,” said Hagenlacher, “shall I try to miss the bank. That inferior plece of strategy was the turning point for both of ws and doubtless had much to do with Schaefer's | games.” Gene Tupney, American light heayyweight champion, rested today after strenuous training for his bout at St. Paul Friday with Harry Greb, middleweight champlo, Tunney feared he might over-train. Greh continued his training., Observers were of the opinion that Greb was in better condition than when he fought Jimmy Delaney, St. Paul light heavyweight several weeks ago. Jimmy Delaney, St. Paul light heavyweight, stopped Fred Sullivan, Oakland, Calif, fighter in the fourth | round of their echeduled elght| round contest at Oakland last night. It#vas Delaney's fight all the way and the contest was stopped by the referce at the end of the fourth round. Bud Fisher Defeats . Thompson in Mateh Bud Fisher of Hartford downed Thompson of Rogers’ alleys in a state league match here last night six games to three. He had an average of 109.5 to the local man's 102. The scores: Thompson: 123, 98, 102, 108, 77, 101, 97, 101, 115—921. Fisher: 110, 105, 105, 128, 119,.107, 92, 110—936. — E. B.
