Louls (Kid) Kaplan is tralning every day at Hanover park in Merl- den and any local people who are interegted in seeing the champion &¢t in shape for his coming tilt with Babe Herman at Brassco park in Waterbury need only to take a trip to Meriden to watch the “pride of Connecticut” doing his stuff. Many are of the opinion that Kap- lan will dispose of Herman for good and all this time when they meet. In former matches, so the dope zoes, Kaplan with a good left hand id a lot of grit was meeting a two- I'sted fighter and yet the Meriden oy more than held his own. Kap- il now is a two-fisted youth who can swing as wicked a right as he can a left, and that's some wicked. Predictions are free in Meriden that the bout won't go the limit, There scems to be some mix-up in the minds of local fans as to the atc of the Kaplan-Herman bout in Waterbury. The date as given out by the promoter, George Mulligan, 15 Aug. 27. Further details as to the time and other bouts wlill be forth- coming in due time. The Rangers and will come to grips Thursday night at the Percival avenue grounds in Kensington and a sweet battle is anticipated, This is Kensington's first entrance into the twilight games ficld and it is expected that it the fans shows that they appreciate the efforts a game will be played every week at the Kensinglton grounds.

Dempsey, The Rangers will practice tonight at the Ellis street or old Pioneer dlamond and all members of the team are asked to report. The practice is important, inasmuch as the team to play Kensington Thurs- day night will be picked from those who turn out tonight. Coach Jack Argosy expects that with a strong lineup and from the ehowing that his charges have been making in the New Britain City league the Rangers will down Kensington Thursday night and a win over the strong south end aggregation will mean a great deal for the local athletic club. Kensington showed better stuft last Sunday agalnst the Cardinals of Hartford, due in a great measure to the excellent headwork of James McCabe, recently acquired as coach of the outfit. Neat work in several of the innings with the players playing in conjunction with the coach’s orders brought the necessary rung which the team has been lack- ing during the past few games. So many fans have expressed the wish to accompany the team to New London on Saturday noon when Kensington will play the United State submarine base team on their home diamond has led the manage- ment of the Kensington team to con- tract for busses which will take the rooters for the team alqng. Two busses will e in recadiness to ace commodate those who want to see the game and for a small considera. tion the fans will be able to make the round trip with the team. Fans wishing to make this trip are ed to lcave their names with Jack Glana or at the T. A, B. build- ing in Kensington. This will make a nice little outing for a Saturday afternoon, while it will give the fans a chance to see some of the inside of the sub base, an opportunity that doesn't come every day. Jimmy Burns, manager of the Recreation team of Meriden, has had 80 much success against the Hardware city nines that he has contracted for the Falcons to play in Meriden Thursday night, He played the Kensington nine in the Sliver city a week ago last Thurs- day and beat them there and then in a return game in IKensington on the following Sunday his team re- peated the story. Last Thursday night the Pirates went down to Meriden full of hope, but their hopes were blasted when the Recreationers sent them home defeated. The Falcons on Thursday night will have the task of retrieving some of the prestige the local teams lost against the fast Meriden crew and they feel that they will be equal to the task. Burns has a strong com- bination in the field and he will make things interesting for the lo. cals. Briggs, the Middletown schoel v who set the Kensington team down in the first encounter, will probably be the pitehing sclaction of the former state leaguer.
