 The northwest corner of Main street and Fairfield avenue is the most popu- lar spot in Bridgeport these days, if one may judge by the concentration of bargain hunters at that point, attract ed by the regular January Clearance Sale at Meigs & Co.'S big store. There is no denying the magnetic influence exerted by the announcement of this annually recurring sale, which dis tributes the most dependable values in good things to wear all over this sec tion of the state.

The offerings this year are unusually large and varied and the values are as high, if not higher than usual. It will pay any man or woman to visit the big store now, and to keep track of the bargain announcements of Meigs & Co.,, as they appear from day to day in this paper.

NOTES
PAPKE TO FACE BIG
FIGHTER IN FLYNN
Pueblo Fireman, Appearing
to Weight 100, Conf
dent of Victory.

Los Angeles. Cal. July 10.-Capacity
houses are promised at both the Nell
son-Wolgast and Flynn Papke battles
next Tuesday and Wednesday nights.
Big crowds at the training camps to-
day saw the four boxers in action and
the prospects are that the quarters will
be overrun with visitors Sunday.
Flynn, with his unshaven face, I'M
kempt hair and burly shoulders. pre-
scented a decidedly rough appearance as
he trudged through his work. Flynn.s
claim that he is down to 165 pounds is
a joke. The fireman looks to weigh
between 175 and $50. and perhaps more.
His days work ended when he and
Collins boxed three rounds. 1t was the
toughest kind of a set-to and Flynn
came out Of the mixup with his right
eye badly puffed.
Flynn's camp work makes 1t plain
that he is going to sail into Papke
rough shod. Encouraged by Papke's
showing against Ketchel at Colma
Flynn has worked himself into a state
of confidence that permits him to be-
lieve he will knock out Papke and ne
is going into the ring Wednesday night
fit to fight one Of the toughest battles
of his strenuous career.
Battling Nelson faced a varied as
sortment of sparring partners First
he took on Aldo. the Turk. who weighs
close to 165 pounds Next came Artie
Nelson at 127, and then came Charlie
Nelson, who tips the beam at 145. The
battler wound up his boxing by going
against Mike Kutchos. the Greek
featherweight.
The Dane boxed two rounds with
each Of his brothers. He does not ap-
pear to be working at all hard and
gives the general impression that he
regards his ten-round fight with VOL
CAST as being more or less of a sure
thing victory. The champion has even
gone so far as to ask Promoter Nc
Carey to match him with Chick Hud-
son for the latter part of next week. so
certain does he feel of defeating VOL
COST. At the finish of his work Nelson
weighed 134A. which assures that the
ringside weight is going to be easy for
him.
