_— CHOSLOCLEPBLOLLBODS LRDOES LEAGUR STANDING Speaking of Sports ‘The highest honor that'can be won by an athlete at the Senior High school, the William F. Burns Memorial Trophy, was presented to Frank J. McGrath this morning. The award brings to a close one of the closest contest in years for the coveted honor. The decision of the two judges, Principal Louls P. Slade and Coach George M. Cassidy must necessarily have been a hair- line one. Nearest to Willlam F. Burns in all-around athletic ability, highest in character, leadership, popularity and a proficency in studies are the qualities which the winner of the trophy must posscss. To the winner should come noth- Ing but the highest and warmest of congratulations. But in a like meas- ure the same measure of praise is due to the other three whose work all season brought them to the fore as possible choices for the award. These were John Matulis, Gabriel Bromberg and Marion Xaleski. Although disappointed as they must have been, the trio of stalwart boys whose one ambition was to win the highest trophy possible in their high school days, continued their unlimited sportsmanship and were | among the first to congratulate McGrath. New Britain will be well repre- sented tonight at the Terris-Gold- stein and Kaplan-Flelds fight in New York. Among those who are to make the trip today are Deputy Athletic Commissioner Willlam J. Farley, James H. Curtin, John E. Tash, Edward Ziegler and many others. Louis (Kid) Kaplan is in the greatest shape of his career for a hard go tonight and his many back- ers in this part of the state are wish ing him the best of luck.e His op- ponent tonight is considered to be one of the hardest obstacles in his path towards the lightweight cham- pionship. Rain washed out the Industrial League baseball games at Walnut Hill park last night and puts two more contests on the postponed lst making a total of four games which will have to be played on other than regular playing nights. It also washed out the amateur tight tournament scheduled to be held at the Velodrome in Hartford last night. The bouts, however, are to be held tonight with the team of Canadians much the better for the extra day of training. FAVORITES SURVIVE First Round of \Women's Trans- Miss. Golf Tournament Is Played on Rain-Soaked Course. Kansas City, Mo, June 15 (UP) —Favorites survived the first round of the women's trans-Miss.

LOGICAL OPPONENT Newsboy Brown, by Decisive Vic- tory Over Johnny Vacca, May Be Matched With LaBarba. £ Los Angeles, June 15 (A—News-| boy Brown of New York today was| advocated by sports writers as the | next opponent of Fidel LaBarba,| flyweight champion, as a result of| Brown's victory last night over| Johnny Vacca, Bridgeport, Conn., in| a 10-round bout here. | Vacca, it was pointed out, beat| LaBarba twice.
