ing the lead, with their four-piece
band. Local rooters followed suit with
a regular musical outfit. Several ar
guments occurred during this time, in
which Hartford young man who was
going to be funny and break up the
girls procession, came out second in
an argument with one of the police
officials. The disturbing element was
also present from this city, a sailor
whose presence in the navy blue made
good American citizens shudder, be-
came involved in an argument with
a peaceful citizen who paid his way
in to watch the game. and the flow Of
filthy talk that emanated from the
unshameful representative Of the U.
S. N, was shocking to even the male
folk who were nearby, not to speak
of the teachers and other women who
were forced to listen to 1t. 1t re-
Quired only the using of level heads
on part of many of the young men,
from administering to this thug a
beating he justly deserved.
V3bberts Out of Game
Both teams were given a rousing
send-off when they appeared for the
second half. Vibberts commenced the
play by punting to Suisman to the
30-yard line, a gain of five yards re-

availed the visitors small gains,

Herbert. Captain Macristy broke

Represents Only Regulars.

Represents Only Regulars.
The total Of $3.50 signed applica-
ton cards represents merely the reg
ular patrons Of the various clubs, be-
ing those who live In the vicinity Of
the clubhouses. Each club has
large clientele composed of residents
of its neighborhood, and these are to
be found at the rinGside each night
that bouts are staged. The Agures
indicate approximately the number that
would attend each set Of bouts Of or
binary quality. These are the regu-
lars who get seats at every entertain
ment in the nearest boxing club.
But the statistics do not show the
attendance at any club when bouts OF
extraordinary attract1veneeS arc
staged. On such occasions the pa
irons come from all over the city and
jam the clubhouse. This WAS the
case at the Leonard-Johnson contest
at the Harlem Sporting club, when
there was such a rush that thousands
were unable to gain admittance.
The figures do not begin to show
the general interest in bout of the
first quality in an arena sufficiently
large to accommodate a proportion OF
those who would like to see the con-
test, for on such occasions the pro-
moters have put the prices SO high
as to keep down the numbers.
Closely following this action by the
legislature the federal military au-
thorities set the stamp of their ap-
proval on boxing as an admirable
means of fitting soldiers for duty at
the front, SO that at present the citi-
zens of New York are by legislative
edict denied as civilians sport that
by the national government Is de-
clared to be a good thing for the SOL
diers.

final attempt to put it across, and, as
he started around the left end, John
son, Burns. Captain Macristy and Hib-
bard tore after him. Someone in this
quartet hit the Ethiopian hard for Il
loss and Hartfords chance for victory
faded. With the ball in New Britain's
possession on their own 1O-yard line
Hubbard punted to Davis. Hartford
at once started the aerial attack and
Layland caught a pass from Suisman
which melted ten yards. Another of
the same kind of plays netted the Wis
itors Is yards, Ashley intercepting d
forward pass. Hibbard at once
dropped back for a punt and as time
near the end he booted the ball far
over Susman's head to the Hartford
35yard line when time was called.
The New Britain crowd rushed upon
the field and smothered their pets
with greetings. Captain Macristy
Hubbard, Burns and other heroes were
carried from the field on the Shout
ders of their admirers, while the
Hartford High team received but lit
tie attention from their friends.
Bearce Satisfied
Coach Bearce was elated at the
outcome, and, while the team did not
score, he stated at the end of the
game that no alibis were in order
The loss Of Hagearty, who was forced
out of the game on account of the
injury to his leg sustained Friday
evening, was keenly felt by the locals
On top of this came the injury to

from Harry Ginsburg, who has

Cards for the Finish.


Cards for the Finish.
New York, Nov. 12.-The final
bouts to be contested under the Fraw-
ley law will be spectacular affairs.
The most important Of all will be q
ten-round battle for the middleweight
cham pionship between Al Mccoy, the
title holder, and Mike O'Dowd, chal-
lenger. This will take place at the
Clermont Sporting club, Wednesday
night, and will draw great throng,
as O'Dowd is one Of the most popular
fighters that ever drew on a glove in
this city.
On the same night a heavyweight
bout of much interest will be staged
at the Harlem Sporting club when
Frank Moran and Bill Brennan face
each other. This should be an ex-
citing combat as each is a heavy hit
ter and very aggressive. 1t will be
the acid test for Brennan, as he will
have to take a punch as we'll as give.
Next in Importance will be the bat
tie between Billy Miske and Jack Dill
Ion which is set for the Broadway
Sporting club tomorrow night. Miske
is fighting in top form at present and
If Dillon has retrogressed. as is

Bobby Returns After Long Service in
War Fund Competition.

New York, Nov. 12.--Bobby Wal
thour the Dixie Flyer who has raced
in Europe all summer, returned to
this city yesterday from Havre,
France, aboard an American liner.
Bobby, whose wife was waiting for
him at a pier along the Hudson,
looked in the pink of condition. In n
hurry to leave the city for visit to
some friends, Walthour stopped long
enough to inform reporters that BIZ
cycle racing is still popular in France
despite the war. Walthour gave his
services gratis to many war fund

Bobby returned to this country to
compete in the coming six-day race,
which will start in Madison Square
Garden on December 2. He expects
to go to England next January.

SURPRISE FOR !.
FOOTBALL men
. OF The THE NORTH
No Doubt As IS to Brand Of
Football Played in South
This Season.

If there has been my doubt about
the brand of football played in the
south it was dispelled Thanksgiving
day when Georgia Tech defeated Au-
burn 68 to Z, completely overrunning
the team which held Ohio State to q
s%coreless tie.
Ohio State was the recognized lead
'er in western football. The boys
from Columbus, headed by Chick
Harley, had defeated two of the
strongest. members of the Western
Conference. Illinois and Wisconsin, by
decisive scores and had run away
with two other conference teams, In
diana and Northwesternl in addition
to winning all its minor games by inn
pressive cores.
Then came the Auburn game and
Harley and his teammates were de-
Icisfvely stopped. The great all-Amer-
(ican halfback could do, nothing with
the Alabama defense,
Auburn was not one. of the great
teams of the south. Earlier in the
season Davidson. had, defeated the
Montgomery lads by a decisive score,
and Davidson was not considered one
of the really great teams of the south.
Then came the Tech game. Tech
had met and defeated all rivals, over
whelming PENNSYLVANIA, Carlisle and
Vanderbilt by lopsided scores. And
Tech Fan true to form.
Ohio State, Rutgers, Minnesota,
Pittsburg or Syracuse probably would
find their hands full If they were to
mix with the warriors from Atlanta.
