UT there is NO distinction be-

ID UT there is NO distinction be- D tween fighter and boxer. They are similar. A fighter is one who com bats; so is a, boxer. Pugiltstical- ly fighter is taken to mean a, slug ger, careless, rough and unconcern- ed scrapper while the term boxer is generally applied to the chap who resorts to cool. scientific and care full tactics. But the difference is merely technical.
 Today the ring gentleman resents being termed a fighter; he insists he is @. boxer. Yet a glance at the die tionar3 will persuade the cynics that there is no difference. Boxing and fighting are synonnous, too. Box ing, however, is a dignified substitute for fighting; but. the fact remains, there is no difference between the two.
 But while these terms are synon- nous one cannot say that present day scrapping is prize fighting; 1t is fighting or boxing, as you choose tc call it,-BUT not PRIZE FIGHTING

c O FAR as Connecticut is concern O ed wrestling Is a sport of the past. No longer will the public be bunkoed by dishonest wrestlers and their managers. No longer will the public be asked to support pre-arrang- ed matches.
 Connecticut saw its last wrestling match a week ago tonight when WIadek Zbyszko and Renato Gardini put on their infamous fake that ter minated in the "knocking out of the Ita1ian-just as Jack Curley had in tended that it should end.
 But Connecticut fans can be fool ed once. This talk of giving the fans their money back in the event that no fall is scored, may sound perfectly good when read in the newspapers, but as a matter of fact it fs bait and intended to attract the unsusp ecting public It was the last straw and with the promoters and managers bluff called, wrestling can no longer consider itself welcome in this sec ton of the country.
 Bridgeport has closed the doors to wrestling for several years. And Hartford put down the bars three weeks ago when the public there was defrauded out of hundreds of dollars with a rank prs-arranged match thai ended in a farce. Now New Haver has fallen in line.

The best forward on the English side was Billie Shaw, who tried time and again to break through. but the rest of the forwards were weak owing to great play Of the Scotchmen. The English forwards had several chances but weak play by g. Smith on the left wing spoilt many opportunities. At the interval the Scotchmen led by the only goal scored
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-05-12

The Scotchmen were playing surprising ball and were far the superior team and time after time were in the vicinity of the English goal but Drinkwater and Pohlmann defended well and saved the situation time after time. On several occasions the English forwards would break away but the defense of Wagner and Cordner was magnificent and Johnston did not have much to do.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-05-12

Charlie Drinkwater won the toss for the Enghshmen and O'Grady started the game for the Scotchmen, who at once attacked and almost scored in the first few minutes of play as Cas- sidy sent in a long shot that Calliss just saved. The ScotchIuen kept up the pressure and after ssome fine passing between the forwards the ball was sent right into goal and O'Grady being close at hand, surprised the goalkeeper by scoring with his heel It was a. shot that surprised everyone.

his devotion in the most ardent

of school drew to a close, Tony an
nounced that he must spend the sum-

mediate marriage-and l was nearly
caught up and carried into it by his
in,petuous wooing.
Then Bob came home and quietly

unhappy, but on the whole vastly re-
lieved when Certeis finally said a po-
lite and hurt 'good-by" and started
on his trip overseas.
Before he came back! my engage
ment to Bob Lorimer had been an
nounced.
After the war broke out in Europe
DR.. Certeis and Bob's father formed
some kind of business connection.
They shipped chemicals to Europe
and Bob always hated the millions his
father acquired that way. That en-
terprise ended when this country en-
tered the war, but the intimacy be-
tween Certeis and Daddy Lorimer
continued. Except for II, Certeis
would doubtless have gone out OF my
life and I would never have had any
confessions of my great temptation
to write about He came and went
in the Lorimer house like one of the
family, always respectful to me as
the Lorimer war-bride. But after
Bob's enlistment. his old tumultuous
self came to life again, and his old
passion for me ffared into words
and into one impetuous 'embrace-and
once, into an impulsive threat.
And vet I forgave him, knowing how
Daddy Jorimer esteemed him, and
remembering well the honest tender
ness he had shown me when he was
trying to win me for, himself.

treatise on the modern dress OF the
modern female, with an explanatory
note that the mentioned ankle
chains" are three thickness of heavy
canvas four inches wide stitched to-
sether~ and fastened near the bottom
Of her skirt.
Then man says that he cannot sign
his name TO protect his ultra-fashion-
able wife from publicity. But he
her:
1t seems to me the female mind
Has found a simple" way 10 dress
Dame Fashion says that now she
must
Wear siIken tights from toe to chest
For narrow skirts are worn so tight
That petticoats are "enpasse."
In fact for them she has no room
And so she's thrown them all away
And now she wears DER natures
form
A garment like a second skin
That's made of silk and fits like glue
And runs from toe to chest, to chin.
And Ger the tights she wears a dress
The waist and skirt made all in one
The skirt to save material
At bottom measures q
And then to keep from splitting 1t
Together are her ankles chained
And as she slowly creeps along
She wears look that's tired and
pained.

Review the History of Certeis
Love-making and Go Blum
derina On,

The sternness OF the man astonish-
ed me. Never before had 1 heard
Hamilton Certeis speak in that way,
and had known him for years. When
l was a small school girl he had first
come up to Amesville with the Lor-
inner boys one summer. 1t was then
that I initiated the boys and called
him Tony"
All the town followed the queer
stunts" of the rich young foreigner.
1t was said that his parents lived
half of the year in this country, but
no one knew what business kept them
wandering over the face Of the earth
the other six months.
l remember we'll the comments of
the small town college circle to whom
Certeis was an interesting specimen.
He hod been twice around the globe,
he could speak all of the major ana
some Of the minor languages of Eu-
rope. And he crossed the Atlantic an
nually.
To our little clique of professors
and tutors all devoted to acquiring and
spreading culture Of a guaranteed
brand. the friend of the Lorimer boys
represented the world abroad" which
few Of them had ever visited.
Tony had been educated In Europe
and had become "Dr. Hamilton Ser-
teis'' before Bob received his degree.
When his parents died, he opened an
office in the middle west where the
Lorimer's lived. And there / was
sent to finish my college course. for
although my own father was coll
lege president. he believed that part
of my education consisted in being
away from my own home
Hamilton Certeis nearly made me
forget about Bob Lorimer that win
ter.
His love-making was wild exper-
ience. seldom a day went by that
he did not zee me. While he was
with me he delighted in telling me
how adorable / was and how much
he loved me. And he was satisAed
