ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1S29-Deaf Burke defeated Sill F1tzmaurice in 166 rounds at Harpen- den Common, Eng. Both men were utterly exhausted at the end of the long struggle, which lasted nearly three hours and concluded when F'itz- matrices seconds tossed Tn the sponge, fearing that to continue longer would be fatal to their man. The East End Chicken as. Fits- maurice was called, was terribly mau1ed, and he spent several days in bed. Burke who afterWard became champion and made a tour of Amer lea, showed little of his future. ability in this contest, and won only by SUI perior endurance. 1his long contest was for the muniffcent sum of &126 and even this was considered a, big sum by Burke. Shortly after whip ping Fitzmaur1ce, Burke was defeated by Bill Cousens in a, battle which last ed III rounds. Fighters had to work for their coin in those days.

Slim" Ray Caldwell, who had to taste defeat at the hands of Jen- nings' tribe last Friday, was the fair haired boy that finally. managed to tie knot in the Tigers tail.
 "SIim" pitched a fine game against the Tigers and was especially strong in the pinches. But still, Ray had to have the assistance of Bobby Veachs one of the outfe1ders of the Tigers before he could score his victory ov- CT the boys from Detroit. Veach came to Rays assistance in the fourth inning when he dropped big Ed Sweeney's fly and paved the way for the Highlanders1 scoring a trio of ta1lies.
 With clean fielding behind him in the fourth Jean Dubuc, who shut out the Highlanders on Friday, would have held the HiEhlanders runless. The pitcher threw out Lute Boone at the start of the fourth and next Sweeney hit a fly to left. Veach ob1igingly allowed the cork-oentre to drop out of his paws and the catcher
 managed to grab two bases on the huff. Caldwell popped up to Mckee. This would have retired the High flanders without any scoring if Veach had heId@onto the ball.
 But just the same he didn't, and the Highlanders chased three runs over the plate before they were final Iy retired.

 Johnson got on his feet as the referee began to count. Langford rushed at him, but Johnson managed to stall the round through. Johnson's s best round was the eighth. In this session he jabbed Langford several times with his left. One of the jabS cut a slight gash over Langford's right eve

Down the Line With Wagner

Reports and denials of the i'm pending transfer of the Newark In- ternational league club to Harrisburg, Pa~, have been coming thick and fast. President Barrow of the Internatfon- al league denied yesterday that ar engagements had been completed for the Newark club to go to the Penn sylvaniaL city. But regardless Of the truth of his statement, it looks as if there is no chance for Newark to transfer to this city. President Ten ter of the National league visited Har- risburg last Sunday where it was said he went to help negotiations. Bridge port fans will have to content them selves with visits to the Polo Grounds when they have the chance and the money.
 Bobby Stow has fallen into a batting slump with Fort Worth of the Texas league. He made only two hits in five recent games. The former Bridge porter is batting sixth in the Fort Worth order.
 Al oden, another old Bridgeport star, is doing better in the Texas league, however With San Antonio, NOde1l has made 12 hits in seven games.
 Jimmy sheckard, who won fame as a member of the Brooklyn and Chicago National league clubs, has joined the serni-professional ranks He is playing with the Mountville Pa-s club.

Outside Observations,


 It is said that the New York Amer jeans are about ready to drop Roger Peckinpaugh from shortstop as soon as they find a. minor leaguer who can fill the bill. Scout Joe Kelley is combing the bush leagues for talent now, Peckinpaugh was never a, TO- bust hitter but has been worse than usual this year.
 The Yale baseball team will go to Princeton. Saturday, for the second contest of the series with the Tigers. Princeton won an unexpected victory May 29 and if the Tigers win again Saturday they will capture the ser ies.
 Billy Phoenix, who played second base in Bridgeport many years ago, is very much, alive in the Colonial league. Yesterday at Savin Rock he helped Fall River beat New Ha- ven by lifting the ball over the fence for a homer in the ninth.
 Sid Peet, who has been trainer at that noted prep school, Andover, for Is years, has resigned. It is said that Vaughn Blanchard, formerly of Blanchard resigned from Worcester when it was found that he had aI- lowed boys over the age limit to l compete in an athletic meet. The Detroit club has bought Pitch CT Steen from Cleveland. Steen was | always regarded as good pitcher l but hasn't been doing well this sea- i son. It is probable that a change | of scenery and a, prospect of getting | into the worlds series money vii l help him regain his form.
