WRESTLING
ALEX SWANSON
 WAS WHIPPED Marvin Hart Gave Him ! Surprise By Taking a Fall-Freneh
 Crappler Anxious.

Louisville, Dec. 26.-Martin Hart showed his versatility yesterday by winning a match on the mat from Alex Swanson, welterweight champion wrestler. The local pugilist proved a surprise even to his friends. who knew he was handy in this direction.
 Hart started in as though he meant business, and in the first set-to began by getting a flying fall, which almost meant down for him. The first two falls, however, went to his Swedish opponent, and it was not until the third go that Hart had his chance.
 With half-Nelson he. laid the Swede fiat on his back and held him there. H. Barton, ,Swanson's manager, was much disappointed at the result and promises different result if q return match is given.
 By the terms of yesterdays contest Swanson was to have thrown Hart three times in one hour of actual wrestling.

DEyOE AFTER LAWSON. {.

Up in Torrington there is a little French wrestler named Albert Devoe who has all the goods in the grappling line, so his friends say. He wants any man or boy of his weight in the country and is more than anxious to get on the mat with "Chick" Lawson of Naugatuck. Eddie O'Connell ought to have come in his camp who could take care of this little fellow If Lawson doesn't want of his game.

POLL
GOOD START
 YESTERDAY Waterbury Was Beaten But the Local. Did Well Enough
 For . Starter.

Judging from the number present and the enthusiasm displayed at the exhibition game in the Auditorium yesterday between Waterbury and New Haven, which the latter won by the score of 10 to 5, polo willSbe pop ular in this city before the winter is over. Although the game did not give the home crowd the biggest chance in the world to enthuse, still at times the fans had the opportunity to break loose, and they made the hall ring as in days gone by when the place was filled to its capacity watching the old time slam bang con- tests.
 The Auditorium when the banks are up and the netting around is still the same as in the old league days with very little change. Carson City was not in readiness yesterday, but the band from that section of the hall sent forth music and number stood on the stage and watched the game.
 Waterbury did not have its regular team and Manager McMahon before the start made a few remarks s.@ting the kind of polo which he and his partner intend to furnish, also men, tioning the fact that Warner. play CT awarded to Waterbury, had not put in an appearance, consequently the local quintet was handicapped somewhat.
 Although Waterbury made good start and at the end of the first period led by the score of ? to 0, 1t was only question of time when New Haven would forge to the front. George Bone. who seems to be just as fast and clever as ever, was all over the floor and had the Waterbury players breaking their necks endea- vOring to get the ball away from him. Again and again he would go the length of the floor and 1t was only because of the excellent work of Allen in Waterbury's goal that the score was not larger. Allen played a first-class game and will without doubt make good goal tend. He was moro than half the Waterbury five, and although at times he left his cage. he only did 1t when neces- sary, and on all occasions he showed very good judgment. With a good halfback he will show up much bet ter.
 Although the team work of New Haven was not of the sterling Qual- ity, still 1t looked much better than Waterbury's, but Bone and Warner would show up well on any team.
 Johnnie Griffin was given the glad hand when he made his appearance.
 lnnie is rather slow. but will In all probability round into form after a few games. Dews played fair game considering 1t was the opening con- test and did about as we'll as the other Waterbury players.
 The crowd did not seem to be dis appointed in the least and appeared to be we'll pleased with the initial game. They of course wanted to see Waterbury win. but consoled them- selves with the fact that the home team would be strengthened so as to cope with the other lives in the cir cult. All things considered it was a very good start.
 The lineup was as follows: Hack cit and Dews, rushers; Griffin. cen ter; Manuel. halfback. and Allen, goal for Waterbury: and for New Haven, Bone and Cartright, rushers; Porter, center; Warner. halfback, and Porter, goal.

GRESHAM AND CONNOLLY.

Peter Connolly of Naugatuck and George Gresham of this city are to meet in grappling contest, proba- bly in the Simonsville Athletic club rooms on New Years day. Connolly agrees to throw Gresham six falls in one hour of actual wrestling. If Gresham wins one fall from the Naugatuck boy he wins the match. It looks very much as though Con molly has bitten of more than he can chew, for Gresham. while older in years, has the experience and can act on the defensive like Bothner when 1t comes to the point that he has to assume the defensive.

The Evening Game.

New Haven won the night game in an exciting finish for the last ten min utes of play by the score of II to &. Waterbury lead all the way by the score of and 3 to O. and then fifteen minutes before the game end ed Dews broke his skate and Water bury was compelled to play practical Iy with four men. Manuel became SO tired out. too. that he could not i'll his position properly and New Haven took advantage of both of these cir cumstances and began to pile in the balls. Waterbury kept with her up to the last few minutes. when the fast game tired them all out and New Haven won. The lineup was the same as in the afternoon game.
