T e e e L It is strange what a difference of opinion there has been among the metropolitan sports writers over the declslon rendered by Referee Jack Bheehan of Boston at the Kaplan- Herman fight {n Waterbury last Thursday night, but the writers who witnessed ‘the bout and who are commenting on the declslon are about evenly divided with regard to the justness of the decision, Knowing as we do that Kaplan of last Thursday night was not the Kaplan we have seen on past occa- slons, we belleve that the stories emanating from Meriden as to the champlon's condition, malaria and all such, have truth in them. Kap- lan nor his managers, have no alibls to offer, the Kid himse!f simply stating “I was away off.' * Ed Van Avery, known as one of the keenest minds among the sports writers of the present day, and eslumnist for the New York World, etates that in his opinion the bout was too close to give Herman the decislion over Kid Kaplan. One of his paragraphs strikes us as being Just the thing needed. It follows: “That there was charges that Herman was jobbed out of his title, is unjust to the fair epirit .shown by the sporting ele- ment of Waterbury, and it is unjust to the efforts of George Mulligan, who promoted the match, and Tom Donahue, gole head of the Connecti- cut boxing commission To read some of the New Tork eports writers and then see the same thing contained in some of the Con. nectieut papers, especially a near neighbor, one wou!d think that Con. necticut was fllled with high hande robbers of everv descriptio: York, of course, gives £ square deals.
