Holcomb has refused to permit the Willard-IFulton fight to take place in Connecticut. Recently James P. Mulvihill of New Haven, who has been seeking to bring the fight to this state, wrote to the governor ask- ing for his sanction. Governor Hol- comb in a replay, made public tonight by Mulvihill, says: “Of course this boxing contest is what eommonly known as a prize| fight between the heavyweight cham- pion and one who desires to contest the championship. This comes within the provision of our general statutes which makes the principals and sec- onds in a prize fight liable to a fine and imprisonment. “It should be obvious ‘to you that| the governor of the state would not give permission for such a contest to be held in this state, or for any act which is prohibited by statute.” THIRD BASEMAIN SAYLES OF ACADEMY INJURED | Bad Hop On Fast One Splits Hand Open—May Not Be Able to Play Friday. The first casualty of > the season (barring the Shore Line, " Killingly, Consolidated and the N. F. A. teams), occurred on the Campus about 3:30 Wednesday afternoon. During infield practice, Tom Sayles on third told Coach Sullivan to try and get a hit through him. Tim did. The ball came hard and just as Sayles went to scoop | it up it took a slight bound hitting Sayles in the cartilage between the thum and forefinger, splitting his hand. Sayles was ordered to see a doctor and it will be decided today whether or not he is able to play the dizzy corner in the first league game of the eason for the Academy at Westerly day. Sayles’ injury, especially if it capacitates him is a serious blow to the Academy chances. Infielders at the Academy are just about as plenti- ful as pacifist speakers in the front line trenches. Should Sayles be un- in- able to play, Ringland will probably be the choice for third. Hull is also a possibility. If Ringland is shifted from short to third, the shortfield po- sition will be a bone of contention be- tween Haney and Fitzgeraid. Meek one of the pitchers is a posibility for the infield, espec if Hull is left m the outer garde 1i; FORT TERRY TEAM READY FOR ALL-NORWICH Soldiers Have Sam Rice of the Sena- tors In Their Lineup.
