Walter Somewhat Upset

1t happened on a street car; perhaps
that was the reason the young woman
was telling it to her friends as they rode
on street car.
Say, girls, said the girl with auburn
hair, in voice which was audible even
unto the rear platform, you may talk
about being embarrassed, but l will
wager a Studebaker matinee against a
chocolate that you have never undergone
anything that's comparable to the agony

RESIGNED AS REFEREE
Basket Ball Official Does Not
Relish Unjust Criticism

P. w. Lincoln, who has been referee
of basket ball games at the armory,
being appointed on the official staff by
the executive committee from the sew
eral organizations, has sent the COM
mittee his resignation. He gives as his
reasons the unjust criticism of some
of the captains and players. The
resignation will probably come UP for
action at the meeting of the commit
tee Sunday. Mr.. Lincoln was probably
melted to such action after the game
between the Wellingtons and Batterys.
During that contest he called several
fouls on Battery B players and the
Welilngtons escaped with only a few.
The Battery players thought he was
discriminating against them. The Incl
dent is one to be regretted. Mr. Lin
coin was an excellent official and his
impartiality was recognized by specta-
tors. In the game in question nobody
except strong Battery partisans
thought he showed the slightest i'm
partially. While there is question but
fouls committed by Wellington men
escaped him, it is just as certain that
Battery B men committed more fouls
than he called. 1t was simply that he
didn't see all, and no referee that ever
officiated at basket ball game can.

SWEENEY AND HAWKINS
Sporting Men Look For a Game
Fight at Hartford

Worcester sporting men are making
plans so they can attend the fight be-
tween Patsy Sweeney and Dial Hawkins
Years day. The bout was arranged by
William L.. Crowley, manager of the
Nutmeg Athletic club, which :. has
pulled off so many crack battles. The
match is of special interest to Worces-
ter people. Sweeney has as big fol-
lowing in this city as if he was a Wor-
cester man, principally on account of
the fight with, Jack Lawler, a year ago
He was backed by Worcester money
and the match was arranged in this
city, so that to all intents and pur-
poses Sweeney practically represented
section of the sporting men of this
city, while Lawler represented the
other. Since that time Worcester
sports have closely followed the ring
career of Sweeney. He is prime
favorite with Worcester sporting men,
1t is the firm belief of many of the
best judges and closest followers of
fistiana, that Sweeney can win the
lightweight championship and can whip
anybody in the world at 1873 pounds.
Hawkins is a good one. His decisive
son City, isn't forgotten by Worcester
sports. 1t took him just four seconds
to put Flaherty away. He has knocked
out Eddie Connolly and Kid MOZART
land and has fought draw with
George Dixon at catch weights.
Both are fighters of the warmest
kind. Each is noted for his style of
coming in" all the time. Worcester
sports got a good idea of that type of
fighter when they saw Sweeney and
Lawler together. Hawkins is of the
same kind Sporting men say Sweeney
is hard one to keep out, and Hawkins
has the reputation of being able to do
things to a man who keeps coming in.
1t looks as if the fight would be a
corker.
The men are scheduled to go 20
rounds. There is not a sporting man in
this city who thinks it will go the
limit
Charley White will be referee.
The preliminary will be a 15-round
go between Fred Vannought and
Whitley Lester. This ought to be as
lively as the main bout, as the men
are fast ones.

MAKING AN EARLY START
James J. Mclaughlin Doing Light
Gymnasium Work

James ]. Mclaughlin intends to re-
trieve mis- reputation as a smiddle-dis-
started out early to fulfill that purpose.
He has entered the Y M. c.. A. gym
nasium and will practice steadily with
a view Of keeping himself in good con-
dition, so that he will have the ability
to run if he chooses to train He does
not intend to do any training at the
gym, but will simply exercise to keep
him in wind and his limbs strong, so
that when the door season begins
he can train a regular course. Me-
Laughlin thinks he was not in any kind
of condition for running when he raced
Holland last year, and won't be unpre-
pared the coming summer, in case he
decides to follow the game, as is his
present intention.

LASTED TWO ROUNDS
Harry Forbes Quickly KnuckIed
Under to the "BrookIyn Terror"

New York, Dec. 2z-Terry McGovern,
the Brooklyn terror" quickly defeated
Harry Forbes of Chicago at the new
Broadway Athletic club tonight. The
lads met for IS rounds at 11S pounds
under Marquis of lQueensberrv rules, but
the battle lasted only three seconds
over round and half. McGovern sim
ply outclassed his opponent from the
word Ego" and smothered him at every
turn.
Both boys were in first class shape
and the Chicago boy had not word of
complaint to make after the battle. To-
night CAP Smith bet $1,000 against $500
that Terry would whip Dixon, and the
short end of this bet was taken by a
well known club man.

WANT TO GET THERE QUICK?

If you are in a hurry to reach any point
between Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo, Gin

get there quickest by travelling on the

more of them than any other western
road, and 1t offers so many conveniences
and comforts to it's patrons that trip
seems shorter than by other lines.
