NEW HAVEN FIGHT FANS
 SEE FAKE BOXING MATCH
Referee Dave Fitzgerald Leaves Ring After Warning Coulon and Hayes
 to Stop Sailing.
(New Haven Journal-Courier.)

(New Haven JOurnal-COurler.)
 if Johnny Coulon, branded as the bantamweight champion of the world, near New Dorp, L. l., following his flirt with death in the icy waters of the Atlantic on Monday, his reputa- tion as boxer would today be of a finer quality than it was before at the Casino last night. For the sec ond time within a season, local boxing fans were handed a lemon.
 These little batams were billed to engage in a ten-round boxing exhibi tion and their little game was short lived in the eyes of Dave Fitzgerald, referee of high standing. After warning both boys for three rounds. Fitzgerald created a sensation that had never been seen here before. Thor oughly disgusted with the fakirs, Fitz- gerald made the startling announce ment at the end of the third round to the effect that he would Officiate in the ring no longer.
 Johnny Coulon, peeved boy, appeal ed to Chief of Police Cowles to allow the bout to go on and have another referee substituted. Mike Doherty, nouncer succeeded Fitzgerald. Doherty had occasion to work but one round, as Frankie Hayes was counted out CD Hayes was far from out, but he worked his little game to the letter, as a result of light back hand blow.
 No sane boxing fan who witnessed the exhibition last night believes any thing else but the fact that 1t was a well-planned fake

WATERBURY TO GET NEW BRITAIN
 BASEBALL SQUAD

As result of an agreement last night between James J. Murphy, own CT of the New Britain baseball fran chise. and the directors of the. Valley league, Jack Hoey's combination of balltossers will appear in Waterbury uniforms Sunday afternoon providing that the Connecticut league magnates authorize the change.
 There is little likelihood of any op- position, as the other clubs have been anxious from a financial standpoint to have Waterbury in the league. It is probable that the state league di- rectors will meet tomorrow, when Murphy will surr ender his New Bri- tain franchise.
 Since last weeks meeting. which ended in deadlock, Murphy has been conferring with Frank F. BectOn and Thomas w. Fitzmaurice. It was agreed that the owners of the Reid vile grounds should pay half of the difference between $S5, the sum Mur- phy was willing to pay the ~ama teurs and the amount demanded by the Val ley leaguers. As a result while the Valley league will receive $50 for Sun day exhibitions Murphy will be re- uuired to pay but $42. Ssa

 CREDIT FOR BEING
 STATE CHAMPIONS

Bridgeport has one unbeaten team, anyway. and that is the Bridgeport High school baseball nine, which went through the season of 1912 with F Victories and no defeats. The boys have fairly won the state champion ship and are entitled to all the praise they are getting. It is the first time since 1901 that the local high school has won baseball championship. Frank Lalley explained the winning team in 1901. t~. ~,
 At the start of the season the boys did not have very good prospects but they employed Terry Rogers as coach and he taught them the rudiments of the game. When he had drilled them in the first principles he branched out and gave them a few advanced ideas in base running. The result was that the boys bewildered their op- pOnents by their work on the paths. They were also taught to bat.
 Kaesman and Walters were the pitchers, and although neither is a remarkable hurler, they were heady enough to hold the enemy in check. Behind the bat Erwin proved a cap able backstop. The infeld composed of Coulter, Hamilton, Callahan and Challenger was very fast Although Callahan made errors, he was the best pinch hitter on the squad. The outfield was composed of Hurley, Heating and Walters.

TO BOX
 BOMBARDIER WELLS.
WHITE HOPE TO CLASH WITH ENGLISH CHAMPION E.
 JUNE 20,

An international boxing contest was arranged yesterday, when Bomhardier Wells, the heavyweight title holder of England. and Al Palzer. one of the best of the present day big men in America, were matched to fight ten rounds in Madison Square Garden on Friday, June 28. The signing of these two men by Billy Gibson, manager of the Garden A. C., brings to New York one of the most important ring con- tests in recent years and furnishes a bout of interest to fight fans the world over.
 It was announced by the Garden A. C.. officials yesterday that Palzer had signed an agreement whereby he will meet Wells in the Garden whether or not Tom O'Rourke under whose man. agement Palzer has been fighting gets a court decision in the dispute over a clause in the contract between the manager and the fighter. This means that if ORourke is successful in hold ing Palzer to the contract, the Amer ican heavyweight then will fight in the Garden under O'Rourkes direction. otherwise Palzer will fight under his own management. In any event, the fight between Wells and Palzer will take place.
 Palzer and Wells are each feet 3 inches tall and tip the beam close to 22O pounds. Palzer has a rushing, tearing style and is a hard hitter, while Wells's victories have almost all been gained by the knockout route.

YALE COACHES PLEASED
 BY CREWS TIME TRIAL.

New London, June 12.-Again weather conditions that made for good rowing conditions met the Yale and Harvard crews on the Thames, today, and longer work was given out than has been undertaken thus far. Every minute of the remaining time before the race will be spent on the water Yale's coaches and sup porters are seemingly we'll pleased with the time trial, yesterday, when the course was covered in 21:28 and at a comparatively low stroke.
 Yesterday, Harvards squad was troubled with a set of new oars and minor mishaps. The makeup of all Harvard crews is now practically set tied with the exception of the fresh- men four which has been shaken up several times. It is expected, how ever, that the final crew will be de- cided upon this week.

 PHILLIPS, IS g TODAY

Charles F. Dooin who as manager of the Phfllies came nightly near put ting Philadelphia among the 1911 pen- nant contenders in the National league, is tfirty-two years old to- day. Dooin is admittedly one of the best catchers in the business, and last year displayed great managerial abiI.. 1ty against tremenduous odds. He started off his career as a pilot by putting a team that had been consid. cred a second division aggregation stayed there. too, except for the series of mlsfortunes that, overlook hfny. .including the breakingl of his leg ai St. Louis, on July 26 and the suspen- sion of one of his stars, Magee, for beating up an umpire, prcatice that is drowned upon in these mol1ycoddfe days Dooin, who is familfariy known as Red" was born in Cincinnati on June 12. 1880. and began his baseball career. at the age of nineteen on semi-professional team at Norwood, O. The years 1900 and 1901 he spent wearing St. Joseph uniform. The Chicago Americans gave him a trial : in the latter year, but decided he wouldn't .do and sent him back to St. Joe. Thatswas where the Windy City manager showed that he had Q solid ivory dome, for. the following year found DOO1n with the Philadel- phia Nationals, and he is now round ing out his tenth year with the Phil adelphia club.

KILBANE TURNED @ DOWN IN DEMAND
 FOR $4,5O0 PURSE

No more guarantees. That is the decision of the New York club man aeers now. Even a champion can- not dictate terms to the managers or clubs in Greater New York. The fight CTS have just about pumped good thing dry. Hereafter, if they want to gather a few shekels from New Yorkers' purses they will have to gam ble with the club.
 Coming after Billy Gfbson's refusal to meet the demands of Lightweight Champion Ad Wolgast for a bout is the turning down of Featherwe1ght Johnny Kilbane's request for a young sub treasury to box at the St. Mich olas A. c. So it is that two cham pions in one week have found that there are others besides themselves in the fistic part of the world.
 Kilhane wanted no less than $4,500 guarantee to show that he. could out waIfop Johnny Dundee. There was nothing doing.
 These are the summer months. ana the fight fan would as soon spend h1s extra money at the seashore as in the confines of boxing club, even though the opportunity was afforded to see champion was the McMahon infor- nation. 'The champion may live long enough for the fan to see him, but the cooling waves of the ocean are not always SO inviting. We are will ing to give Kilbane a fair percentage of the house, or I've will give him $2.- m flat. He boxed six rounds in Phil adelphia with the toughest man they have down there for $1, 500 so $2,O0O for fen rounds should be about right. If he is a real live champion he ought to entertain no fear of being beaten by the New Yorker and take chance"
 TheA argument didn't sound So well to Jimmy Dunn, Kilbane's manager. But he is given time to think it over. Two thousand dollars is a lot of mon- ey, even for titleholder, and maybe the Cleveland boy will come through and agree to the terms.

TROUBLE OVER REFEREE
 FOR WOlGAST- BOUT

Los Angeles, June 12.3Selection of the third man in the ring at the Ad Wolgast-Joe Rivers scrap at Vernon, scheduled for the Fourth of July was attempted at a conference between the managers of the scrappers and Uncle Tom McCarey at the latter's Broad way offices. And it was no peace con- ference, by any sort of reckoning Lit tie progress was made, though the conference lasted until early Tuesday morning, as the rival managers de- voted a lot of time to discussing the merits of various eligibles for the job and Objecting to those whom they op- posed for the appointment. Tam created quite a sensation during pe- riod of impatience by saying that the referee would be selected Tuesday or he would call off the scrap
 Jones and Levy, Joe Rivers mana gers, submitted a list of names from which a referee might be selected by agreement, but just who was mention ed by either could not be learned be- yond the fact that Jones headed his list with Jack Welch of San Francis co and Levy topped his with Charley Eyton, the official referee of the club. Jones would not say who else was mentioned by him but he did say that Eyton. Charley White Ed. Smith, Ed die Graney, Eddie Hanlon and Harry Foley were not on the list McCarey said that sf the fighters managers could not agree upon the referee he would name the third man himself. Jones replied that McCarey would do nothing of the sort.

LEACH CROSS
 BEATS JACK REDMOND

Leach Cross, of New. York, added lack redmond of Milwaukee to his long list of ring victims by out-point- ing the Westener in a ten-round bout ot inc 6 Nicholas A. C., New York, last night. The bout went the limit. hut at the finish Redmond was half blind. with his right eye completely closed. Cross did not carry a mark of the fray out of the ring.
 Redmond was great disappoint- ment as a boxer. It was apparent thai he was in need of a good battle to put him on edge for a fight with a man in the superb condition that Cross was in. Only in one round, the fourth did Redmond show that he pos- sessed a punch. Then he swung two Iefts heavily to I4each's jaw and made Leach wobble.
 y Cross and Redmond were equal in the matter of poundage. Each tipped the scales at 136 pounds stripped just before they entered the ring.

MAYOR GAYNOR LIKES
 SUNDAY BALL GAMES
TELLS PROTESTING CLERGYMAN THEY KEEP BOYS FROM
 WORSE THINGS.

Mayor Gaynor, of New York,reply- Ing to a letter sent to him by the Rev. Dr. Edwin D. Bailey of the Pros pect Heights Presbyterian church. Brooklyn, protesting against the per- mitting of games in the parks on Sundays, wrote this to Dr. Bailey: Your letter communicating to me the resolution passed by the Prospect Heights Presbyterian church with re- gard to playing games in the parks on Sunday is at hand. I suppose you know that games have been continu- ously played in our parks for many years on Sunday, and it may now be very difficult to stop them. Moreover, a. great majority of the people of the city, and I think of the clergymen of the city, would be opposed to stopping them.
 I was myself brought up to the ob- servance of a still Sabbath. But as we had to work hard in the fields and woods we were willing to keep still on sunday. Of course you know that Is not the case with our city men and boys. Many of them have no day of recreation except Sunday . What would you do with them? IT they do not play in the fields they will go somewhere else. as you know. No doubt, your church has solved that problem and I should be very glad to have you let me know how 1t has been solved. Some of our clersymen who have not been able to solve 1t are offering to go into the fields and play with the boys of their congrega- ton on Sunday afternoons. They dread to have the boys driven to the saloons or to worse places
 The conditions in cities and in the country with regard to Sunday are very different. Please remember also that people have a right to indulge in any game or recreation on Sunday which is not prohibited by law.

 Frank O'Rourke got a fine start in his first game with the Boston Nationals. The Boston Globe this morning says: That new Boston shortstop, O'Rourke. made good impression. He had a lot of speed and covered ground. He had hard luck with the stick, but Owner Calf ball player. O'Rourke took Bresna- hans fly in the sixth away back in to left field, near the foul line.

 New Haven continued it's winning way by beating New Britain g to 6. Fanwell and Reisig1q labored for the Wings and Parker and Lower for the Spuds.
 Here is what the New York Sun says of Ray Heating, the local boy: 'T saw Ray Heating pitch for Law renee last week. says Arthur Irwin, land I'm more enthusiastic than when I first got my lamps on him: The Walsh in this fellow. He is 5 feet 11k inches tall and weighs 190 pounds stripped. He has a wonderful spitball, great speed and splendid con trol, and above all he uses his head. Keating is a natural pitcher. He's built for boxwork. He's got an iron arm and a rugged constitution and furthermore his courage is unlimited. He joins us in September and I'll make a modest wager that he shows the real smoke from the jump. We are extremely lucky that we beat the other big clubs in the scramble for his services"
 The Pirates led the Brooklyn Su- perbas to an awful slaughter, 16 to 4. Hans Wagner, however, did not make hit. The Superbas only made z errors.
 Another baseball strike was immin- ent yesterday. A Brooklyn fan called Red Smith, the Superbas' third base man, "big bum" and the game was stopped until the fan was elected from the grounds.
