Speaking of Sports Bat Battalino, holder of the world's featherweight championship, | nicets what is regarded as his ' most | scvere test tonight in Hartford when ; ho Dattles Bushy Graham, of Utica, | N. Y. in the main bout of a card | of fights to be staged at the Hart-| ford state armory. Battalino has had more dol\'nsl than ups since he lifted the gilded | crown from the head of Andre Rou- tis of France last summer. He has been defeated twice by fighters who were considered above the average while his only victories have been chalked up against men who were | no better than poor second raters, Tn meeting Graham, Battalino | faces one of the best feathcrweights | in the country. Graham is a fighter who has always been near the top without cver winning a champion- ship. There arc plenty of fans who are rooting for Battalino who be- lieve that he will be defeated by the Utica battler. The “in the bag | at ‘em again. This brave horde of | skeptics is on hand at every sport- | ing event lately. They have the en- tire dope all reasoned out with re- gard to why Battalino is going to win tonight. They point to the big purse, @ flat guarantee, being ziven Graham as one argument why the bout is already fixed so that Bat- | talino will win. i Well, we'll always have them with | us. You can’t get away from that| mame old gang that beleves they are smarter than the smartest fellows in the game. They will always be con- ! vinced that Washington had the Hessians all fixed to stage a carousal while he could cross the Delaware: | that Sherman staged his “march to | the sca” only to give C. C. Pyle ideas later on for free publicity and that the Connecticut river overflows its banks so that Massachusetts will have an additional argument for its| move to take away some water. You can’t beat in.an argument the fellow who is convinced that the world is wrong and he is right. W. T. Beers of this city won the Class B prize in the consolation shoot of the United North and South tournament at Pinchurst, N. C., yes- terday.

Boston, April 25 (P—Gus Sunnen- | berg. claimant of the world’s heavy- weight wrestling title, found mm-} sclf with another victory chalked up to his credit this morning and a hard earncd one at that, over George Zarynoff of Russia.
