Speaking of Sports trrrerIIinIIInI IS s ORISR AN II LYY Boxing fans who formed part of the throng at the state armory last night repeatedly asked: “Why is it that local promoters could never make amateur boxing pay in New Britain." The answer is easy. The Hart- ford) promoters who staged two shows this season are putting on quality cards with the best in the amageur ranks showing—but when s ran shows second and s, as well as others who didn't rate at all, were put on. There was some criticism of deci- sions rendered in two bouts last night, in fact, there was more than criticism, there was whole-hearted booing. Johnny Clinch was given the verdict oyer Barney Youseman and the crowd disapproved and aggin when Abe Bodine won from Charles Anderson there was a howl. It cannot he questioned that the crowd was sincere in the Clinch in- cident, but in Anderson’s case it was plainly a case of sympathy since the New Haven windmill was hopelessly outpunched, battered, outclassed, outboxed, outsmarted, was bruised, bleeding and wobbly A fudge's disagreement on the winner of a three round bout neces- sitates a fourth round to decide the winner.

This is Leadership! For this honor goes annually to the member of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce with the year’s largest volume of business. For any other car to equal this would mean retaining continuous leadership until 1936—almost another decade. Theindustrial history of America records no more brilliant achievement than these nine successive years of Buick dominance. CAPITAL BUICK Co. 193 Arch Street .

Two attractions in this city this afternoon will be the high school game at Memorial field and the soc- ¢ game on a special field in Wil- low Brook park, between the Clan Douglas and a German soccer club, Coach Cassidy came through with his first optimistic announcement of the year vesterday afternoon. ™If the entire team is ecligible in --its studies, it will he declared. Principal Louls P. Slade an- nounced that three men who were in doubt were on the eligible list which assures fans that they will be in the lineup this afternoon. The Adams team which plays the All-New Britaln team will not be a set-up and 1f there is any doubt about it all one has to do is to look at the record of the team during this and several scasons past. Reports from papers which are printed In the Berkshires, state that the Silvertown team of Springficld and the Adams team are two of the leading teams in the battle for the championship of Massachusetts. The Silvertown team was a ncat- looking outfit and played New Brits ain evenly throughout a game two weeks ago. A lucky break on an attempted drop kick brought home a victory for them 7 to 0. Plans are being formulated for a league between the various fraterni- ties at the Senior High school. There is an abundance of material in the school organizations that would make up a group of good teams. For instance on the school varsity team much material could be fur- nished. In the backfield, Matulis and Claire could play with the Theta Sigma fraternity and Carlson and Fengler with the Delta Xi. In the llne McGrath and Zehrer wonld cast their lot with the Alpha Tota Epsilon, Bromberg and Gor- don with the Phi Betas, and Ansel- mo with the Theta Sigmas. There is talk of disbanding the Big Three in football on the obvious theory that children are smarter nowadays and refuse to believe everything anybody tells them. The Big Three in football hasn't been anything more than a senti- mental tradition for years and un- der the new rules it is practically impossible to take a sentimental tradition and run it the full length of the field for a touchdown. When Gertrude Ederle, unmar- ried, and Mrs. Corson, very much married, were the only women who swam the English channel, America had the singles and doubles cham- plonship, you might say.
