The Y. M. T. A. & B. soclety was given a license to conduct amateur boxing in the society hall this year. The society’s representatives, Cap- tain James Crowe of the fire de- partment and Sergeant Thomas J. Feeney of the police department, ap- peared before the license committee last night. They sald the society had no definite plans to to boxing shows but they wanted .to have the hall avallable in case a show would be run there in the future. Torrington High, Bridgeport Cen- tral High, Stamford High and New Britain High school football teams are the only big school boy teams in the state which have not been defeated so far this season.

After a year in Albany, O'Connor came to Hart- ford. In 1824, he produced a league championship -club. This year the Benators finished fifth. Leo Larrivier of Waterbury, 150, scored & technical knockout aqver Joe Marro of New York, 146, in the fifth round of a scheduled eight- round bout in Waterbury last night.

He is consfdered the league's greatest acoring ace. . According to the stories, he will remain in Salem, Mass., where he is located. Manager-Owner Art Ives of Meriden, the city which Willlams helped put on top last year, is try- ing to make him reconsider his ac- tion. ‘The Sflver City team will have Bteve Pierce back and the manager is ready to fight to hold both Pierce and Willlams for this year's team against offers of other magnates. At a meeting in Hartford Sunday it is expected that assignment of franchises in other cities from Massachusetts, Rhode Island and New York will take place and then trades will be made. New Britain, Meriden, and Water- bury are to hold their franchises, byt it is posible that the magnates 'who hold the franchises in Brictol and Hartford will transfer them elsewhere.

Newspapers attempting to publish such speeches would be punished. Opponents of the measure char- acterize it as a medieval retrogres- 608 629 sive gag rule unworthy of a modern | representative assembly while the government supporters declare that it provides an effective check against the publication or even preservation of any pronouncement directed against the good name of the country or the integrity of the government. Adoption of the measure is re- garded as certain.

GUEST OF ECKENER Gives Strength to Rumor About Financial Backing New York, Oct. 19 UP—Rumors that Henry Ford is one of those per- sons Dr. Hugo Eckener is attempt- ing to interest in his plans for a transatlantic dirigible mail and pas- senger service were given impetus today by the visit to the Graf Zep- pelin of Willlam B. Mayo, chief en- gineer of the Ford company. Mr. Mayo, in company with several other persons whose identities were more closely guarded than his, in- spected the big dirigible in the naval hangar at Lakehurst, N. J., yesterday and attended a confer- ence with Dr. Eckener and officials of the Goodyear Zeppelin Co. of Akron Ohie. Mr. Mayo denied any ncgotiations had been opened between the Zep- pelin people and the Ford Co. He said it was his personal belief, how- ever, that such a service as Dr. Eckener plans was practicable and could be put on a paying basis with- in & year or two. Dr. Eckener estimates it will take at least $1¢,000,000 to launch his project for four great air cruisers plying between Europe and the United States. “Is Mr. Ford interested to the extent of financing such a com- pany?” Mr. Mayo was asked. “You may say,” he replied, “that Mr. Ford is vita)ly interested in any new form of transatlantic travel, and especially in this form." Until it is definitely determined how long it will take to repair the Zeppelin, plans for the midwest tour of the Zeppelin are being held in abeyance, It is not believed that the repairs can be made before Tuesday. Bev- eral persons will be taken as guests on the midwest trip but whether Mr. Ford will be one of the guests is uncertain. “He is a great man,” Dr. Eckener said, “and I should like to have him for a passenger, bvt he is very busy and I don’t know if he would have time to go. Besides, it is very doubtful if we can tie up at his mast in Detroit.” Hugh Allen of the Goodyear Zep- pelin Co. announced that he had three times as many applications for places on the return flight to Germany as he had room. He said - 1at another trip to thi country of the Zepp-lin is planne early in Deceml 'r. All our tree squirrels make nests of twigs and leaves among the branches of trees.

Washington, Oct. 19 M — When the Graf Zeppelin makes the return flight to Germany she will be guid- ed on her course as far as her com- mander desires by the naval radio compass stations along the Atlantic coast. Plans have been worked out to give the dirigible bearings via radio, until its establishes satisfac- tory contact with German stations. Because the westward flight was to have been strictly a commercial venture the navy was not asked for , assistance’ until the port fin was damaged in a squall early Baturday morning. As the airship bucked head winds threughout the remain- der of Saturday and Sunday the naval radio was unable to get the craft to answer its messages as to its locaticn. The mavy then decided to direct its radio compass stations on the dirigible SBunday evening and from then on knew the exact posi- tion of the craft. Secretary Wilbur revealed 'today that the navy knew the whereabouts of the dirigible as she proceeded to the coast from Bermuda. At the naval communications office it was stated that the navy had offered its radio services month before the flight was under- taken,. but they were declined be- cause the voyige was to be exclus- wvely commercial. Becretary Wilbur explained that the information’ on the radio com- passes was not given out at the time of the flight because the navy did not desire to interfere with the com- mercial companies handling the radio business of the airship.

Fol- lowing are the players: Bill Kuhs, guard; Tony Nevulis, guard; John Szymanski and Joe tackles; and John Dumin who is to be started at guard in place of Nevulis. The backfield man is Henry THE STORE FOR YOU PETE Ludwinowicz, | Kraszewski. Every one of these play- ers will probably be used except Nevulis who has been ordered by the school physician ta stay out of football for twe weeks. Kraszewski is also under the doctor's orders. The only ray of hope lies in the poeaibility of Al Middleton, half back who has just entered school, being eligible for the game. He has com- pleted an unusual amount of work in the week and a half since he en- tered school and it will not be until the last class today that he will know whether or not he 1s eligible. doubt that he will be. If he is he will be put in the back. fleld tomorrow in place of Mike Grip, regular half back since the begin- ning of the season’ The squad will travel by bus to Btamford and will leave the school tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock. The boys will probably arrive in Stam- ford during the latter part of the morning and will spend the balance of time before the game in limber- ing their muscles. The game will start at 3 o'clock.

Davis' resolution for an inquiry into the alleged gambling phase was adopted.
