N NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 25, 1926. % et | dise Park team and Bogdanski from . {I [the Washington team. Speaking of Sports Lrssttatenisaninasensinensiananasaseaciersio iy There has arisen a question as to the order in which the postponed games in which the Stanley Rule & Level team is involved, should be played. Yesterday, the “Herald” ear- ried a story to the effect that the games with the Fafnir and Landers teams would probably be plaved on Saturdays following the closing of the league schedule. This happens at an especially un- fortunate time for the Washington team with such an important game as the Boys' Club before it. Paradise Park has Burritt to play and does not expect much opposition from that source, The cellar champs who went into a tie with the Smith team for the tail end position yes- terday because of a forfeited game and another which was protested, might surprice the Paradise Parks because at times during the season, the Burrift team has developed un- expected strength. success Now comes word from Manager Lliton ef the Fainir team that be- cause the Landers game was sched- uled before the Fafnir game, it should be played before the Fafnir and Stanley Rule game comes off In other words, Manager Elton will not set a date for the Fafnir-Stan- ley Rule game until the Stan Rule-Landers game has been played. The Hartford fight cayd scheduled for Friday night has been called off because Meyer Cohen again had his cauliflower ear split open. The game between Nom Begley's Spring & Buckley nine and the Plainville Businessmen was called off Dbecause of rain yesterday and will probably be played at a later This gives the final spurt in the|date. league a more inferesting aspect as PUBLIC PARKS NET STAR IN TOURNEY Julivs Seligson Draws Interest | Away From Leaders Newport, R. I, Aug. 25 (P —In- terest of fashionable Newport today was temporarily diverted from the progress of ranking stars in its an- nual invitation tennis tournament to a youthful product of New York's public park courts who has brought off three sensational victories to rcach the round before the quarter finals. Julius Seligson, short, chunky and sixteen, yesterday posted the major upset of the tournament with an unexpected triumph over the former Davis cup player, Watson M. Wash- burn, in three bitterly contested sets at 10-8, 3-6, 6-4. Powerful and ac- curate driving, which overcame Washburn's desperate rallies cauliflower ear.

Aug. 25 (P —Jack Dempsey was back on his| training schedule today, in prepara- | | tion for the defense of his world's | | neavyweight title against Gene | Tunney September 23 in Philadel- | phia. Two days of rest, spent largely house-hunting, shopping with his film actress wife, and swapping yarns, left him keyed up for the grind ahead. Construction of the outdoor training ring and gymnasium plat- form near the dog race course was nearly completed this morning and his first workout was set for 3 p. m. after a brisk tour of the board- | walk in the morning. A heavy tarpaulin will protect the outdoor ! ving from light rains. In the event of heavy rains the workout will be in the Elks' gymnasium. There Dempsey will put in most of his time boxing with his partners and {undergo the rigorous stunts that will prepare him for his battle with | the rugged marine. Jerry the Greek, who has charge of Dempsey's training, expects to put the champion through his | paces with seven or eight rounds ;01 shadow boxing, calisthenics and rope skipping. Yesterday Mr. and M Demp- sey spent part of the day house- hunting and found a place to their | liking at 203 Florence avenue, four miles from the city proper. The traces of weariness visible on the 91face of the champion when he ar- rived here Monday have disap- peared. He laughed and joked with newspapermen and visitors who ¢rowed the temporary Dempsey home at the Hotel Ambassador. FIGHTS CALLED OFF Badly It the Washington team loses, | then it will be tied with the Para- Park team for first place and another game will be necessary to decide the championship. vear, it will be remembered, these two teams lost one game each and had to play off the tie with the result that the Paradise Park team won the championship. This year the same situation might happen and if it dges, it will be fully as in- tergsting as last year, Friday's game will decide the entire thing. | Games Yesterday (All games postponed, rain or grounds). wet dise The Standing w | Providence 78 New Haven Bridgeport Springfield Albany Hartford Waterbury .
