Speaking of Sports Games In the Boys' league which Is being sponsored by the Rotary elub, were called off yesterday af- ternoon on account of rain, The date for the play-off of the post- poned contests has not yet been set, Boxing fana throughout the etate of Connecticut will rejoice over the news that Promoter (*eorge Mulli- gan of the Waterbury Independent elub, has been successful in secur- ing the Kaplan-Herman bout for Waterbury, The fight which will be for the featherwelght champlion- ehip, will be held at Brassco park on Thursday, August 27. Mulligan's original offers to both fighters have been accepted. Kap- lan will receive $15,000 and the privilege of 40 per cent of the gate and Herman will recelve 85,000 and a privilege of 20 per cent of the gate, At these flgures, Mulligan will have to go some (o make money, but the fight itself will, it is expected, be the biggest drawing card of the season and should pack the fans into the ball park In the Brass City.. Owing to the fact that Mulligan was apparently geting a very raw deal at the hands of the New York boxing commission. Now that mat- ters have been scttled, all fight fans in the state will be awaiting the date of the bout to attend it. Herman has done so much squawking about his last fight with Kaplan that backers of the Meriden boy predict that Louis will give the Babe a terrific lacing when they meet again. In the previous en- counters between these two, Kaplan was a onc-handed fighter, using only his left. Now he has de- veloped into a two-fiisted fighter and Herman will get the surprise of his life when he meets the chamfp. Many ave of the opinion that Herman is not the logical contender for the featherweight crown. They think Bobby Garcia or Danny Kra- mer would be the logical men and better drawing cards than Merman woud be, but Mulligan. is of the epinion that Herman is the best bet end the fight should be the battle of a century, — | This wil Ibe Kaplan's first show- | Ing in his home state since he won the featherweight crown in Madi- 80n Square Garden in New York in the elimination tournament staged there by the New York boxing eommission, There were many cities where Kaplan was anything but popular before he won tI championship but these old scores have been wiped out and all Con- necticut will be behind him when he meets the former western coast boy: | Hartford is scheduled {o play a 111 be entitlad te the big Manchester team, The Falcons will whip themselves Into shape for the siiver cup play which they will enter soon.

(A—The The championship started on its rapid transit journey when Joe synch dethroned Pete Herman in 1920. A few months later Herman came back to oust Lynch, but the New Orleans boy was able to hold his perch at the peak only two months when a pugilistic storm from Jersey City blef him off and placed Johuny Buff on top. Less than a year later Lynch won back the crown, He finally suc- cumbed to the attack of Abe Gold- stein.
