PN Speaking of Sports ‘The postponed game between the Bouth church and the Red Army will be played off at Willow Brook park Friday night following the ited Army-White Army contest. This game was originally scheduled for July 21, but rain interfered then and again when an attempt to play it off was made last Friday, by MORRIS ACKERMAN There Is much argument ahout whether a stream should be fished up or down. Up stream seems the best bet. The head of the fish is away from you. You will not be seen 5o readily. You will not start sticks, pebbles, grass or leaves down ahead of you. You can lead your catch down below you, where you have already been. You do not scare the trout in the pools above you, The annual fleld and track meet of the playgrounds which was sched. uled to have been held at Memorial Fleld in Willow Brook yesterday afternoon, has been postponed and Dick Anderson, playground super- visor decided that Wednesday of next week would be the auspiclous day for the meet, This will give the athletes who ‘were to take part, another week iIn which to keep up their training i ] grind and shortcomings which have Baseball at a Glance been noted within the past few days will be corrected.

Judging from all the hot air that i coming from the coast, one would be led to believe that Demp- say's wind is in good shape even if he hasn't done any hard training recently. Less talk and a little ac- tion would suit everyone concerned much better than the present jawing back and forth. Louis (Kid) Kaplan of Merlden handed Bill Kennedy of New Or- leans a terrific beating last night in thelr 15-round bout and at times the southern battier was groggy from the terrific body attack the feather- weight champion was giving him.
