 Shortly after the show closed Teddy Hubbs, tLe former boxer who was introduced as hailing from Pitts ourEh, Pa, got in an argument with a well known Waterbury boxing pro moter, who refused to be told cer- tain things that Teddy insisted he should hit.

 The receipts for the night were slightly under s7O0 of which Brown drew down s2OO while Hartley re- ceived S175. Matchmaker Weary broke even.

Jack Lane, one of the delivery driv-
ers for the Peoples Cash store, met
with very sudden and serious inter
ruption on his way to lunch this noon.
He was driving the empty auto deliv-
cry up State street and just in front
of the supreme court building the two
left side wheels landed in the trough
of the street car rail, causing the truck
to swerve dangerously. He slammed on
the brake sharply to checke it, and
then released it, thinking the car would
straighten out with the steering gear.
But see he was headed straight for a
telephone pole and the hospital, he
jerked the brake ON again and let the
truck skid. Having on a set of very
smooth tires, it swung around two or
three times on the wet pavement and
landed against the curb and the pole
at the same time. The impact made a
complete wreck of the rea rwheels, al
most doubling up the axle, and also
smashed off the glass doors at the rear
end. Lane escaped without injury as
the vehicle did not turn over.
