Taftville Fans Will Greet Denny Mur- phy When He Plays in New Lon- don. z The Boosters’ club, of Taftville, has orgapized, and_ from all. indications the Boston Royal Rooters or the Bards Chicago will bave nothing on the Eoosters of Taftville. Nearly forty years ago a young man named Ed. Hanlon left this littlé burg to enter the professional baseball ranks and for years he has been rec- ognized as one of the greatest baseball mer in the country. This spring young Dennis Murphy left for a trial with the Lawrence team of the Eastern League. Today he is the first string catcher of the team and classed as one of the best in the league. His friends and admirers in_ Taft- ville are more than overjoyed at his success and have arranged for a “Murphy Day” in New London on Saturday, July 22. ‘The Boosters of Taftville have ev- erything in charge and are now ‘busy arranging the programme that will give Murphy the greatest day of his Tife. Tubbs Military band has been hired for the occasion and the whole town will be there, special cars and auto- mobiles and gverything else neces- sary. will be used to convey the Boost- ers on this day. The movement was started by John 3 | B. Benoit, for many years manager of the Taftville team from which young Murphy graduated. Mr. Benoit is chairman of the com- mittee, E. V. Murphy, secretary, and W. C. Kendall, treasurer and these men, with the help of the committee of twelve, - will leave nothing undone to make this the greatest day- Taft- ville has ever known KNOCKOUT FIGHTER LOOMS UP IN RING Foreign Countries Laughing at Qur 2 No Decision Bouts. When a great knockout fighter looms up in the ring, he goes to the front like a flash. The fistic fans de- sire real results with a knockout or a decisive wictory, no draws. There has of late been far too much pussey-footing within the ropes, in this age of draws and no-decisions. The greatest handicap in boxing at present is the rule against.ring ver- dicgs, enforced by the many commis- sions that control the sport in the va- rious stafes of the Union. This silly, illogical rule has done more to de- teriorate the manly art, and encour- age faking and stalling, than any oth- er law enacted by the powers that control the pugilistic game. It has made boxing a perfect farce and burlesque in this land of the free and the home of the brave. The fol- simply laughi: at our foolish, ridi- culous, no-decision methods. ¥ Hvery honest lover of the manly art want just, competent verdicts, without any more parley, ballyhooing and- milk and water arguments.. It's high time for ;.he homxin; u:uummlnh:t to wake and_revi very.ob- jecmm-hl‘;p no-decision o " ‘We have only to look over the bat- Jim Jeffries, Stanley Ketchel, Terry he t, ‘t:dn:l&h:rh they gain: of the pas ow. s ed great fame and glory within the . some | heen lBflm and many other noted antagon-. tsts, Most of us can recall how Terrible T McGovern banged a host of top- notchers into dreamland, such game : ringsters as George Dixon, Ed try, Oscar Gardener, Munroe, and others. s ‘We cannot at present review the grand records of the many Knockout, fighters of the past, but. they were certainly a marvelous fleet of battlers.. Among the latest heavyweights to, come to the front by his knockout, ability, is Bill Brennan, the Chicago - Irishman, who has scored- twelve con secutive knockouts recently. His lat- est victim was Tony Ross. Charlie White, the sturdy light- weight of Chicago, has quite a K. O. record. He has put to sleep Joe Aze vedo, Stanley Yoakum, Milburn Say- lor, Gilbert Gallant, Matty Bald and many others. He's undoubtedly the greatest.knockerout in his class. Jack Dillon is a very popular bat- he has finished so many opponents in a most decisive manmer. . George Chip is another K. O. fight- er, who always endeavors to put his opponent away in fine, gallant style. All these men are immensely popu- lar with the thousands of fight fans, because they have the punch and they” generally put lots of real steam into their fistic action. We do not desire. a K. O. in every mill, but we want... decisions; clean, decisive results. For what is any contest without a verdict ?— In our opinion, they are simply a farce or no contest, whatsoever. For the love of the sport, let us haye de- cisions with decisive fights. In the heavyweight division it has been some time since a_fellow half as popular as Big Bill Brennan has come to the front. This heavyweight, a clean cut Irishman, is managed by Leo P. Flynn of New York and today stands as the most popular big fellow in the game, not barring Champion Jess 'Willard. He is popular because he is a fighter and a knockout artist. Brennan doesn’t feel with any of his opponents, but goes for them at the tap of the gong and in most cases makes short and clean work of them. He is foxy and steps around with the spryness of a lightweight. Brennan knows many tricks of the boxing, game and while he has only been in the sport a comparatively short time,; he has acquainted himseif with the fine points. There isn't a club in the country where Brennan has appeared but’ what the is anxjous for the big fellow to play a return: en- -gagement and this speaks well for the big fellow’s ability. . Brennan = carries a sharp, quick punch. It is figured by the boxing experts who have closely watched Brennan in the ring, that he hits hard er than Champion Willara and knows more about the game than Willard. Brennan’s right hook is a wvaluable asset and this hook he works to a Bood advantage -in all of his battles. The tougher the opponent, it seems, the quicker Brenman stops him .and out of the last 15 battles, Brennan has knocked out thirteen heavyweights. Rain Helps Hartford to Win.
