REFEREES RULING
 LOSES CONTEST
By JOE BOOTH.

Yesterday afternoon at Seaside Park, the Swedish soccer cam of this city encountered it's first defeat of the season in the State League series when the ThistIes won a. hard-fought game by scoring the only goal of the afternoon. Although it was a Thistle victory. all the cred for the excite ment should go Jo the Swedish team, as it was because of the referees mistakes that they were deprived of victory. Early in the game the Swed- lsh team scored 8, fine goal which Ab-
 5Ott misjudged, but the referee not
 being sure that the ball went into the net refused to award the goal. Late in the second half one of the Thistles defenders handled the ball deliber-
 ately in the penalty area, but the ref cree awarded a corner kl-k
 Neither mistake can be allowed, as
 the referees decision is final on all cases and the referee may he right in his decisions as he gave them as he saw them, but the unfortunate part is that the Swedish team is the one to suffer. The winning goal came in the i last 15 minutes of the game when from 8 breakaHay by the Thistles' l forward. Tommy Griffin sent the ball i into the net, which gave Ostman no | chance to save.
 i The Swedes constituted the better i team all the way through and the
 Thistles can thank their lucky stars 1 that tbay came out of the ordeal suc- cessfu14y. as their defense played Q great game and tha exhibition ot l Wagner and NItIligan will long be re-
 rlembered in the annals of the game | The SWedeS pressed corner aT+pr- co---
 ner in rapid succession but the fin,
 defense of these two players pre-
 vented them from scoring. The This.
 ties turned out as selected. but the 1 Swedes were compelled 10 make a couple of changes owing to two O.
 their regular players being at work in shops.

In all fairness to Louis Bogash lest there are those who will take ser iOusly all that Leo writes in the above letter, the writer will state that Bo- gash is the legitimate lightweight. Furthermore. in fairness to all log jcal claimants of the lightweight championship it may be well to state that when Pete Hartley fought Young Blades at WoonsOcket in 1918, tho Dane was not a contender for the logical contender for New England title inasmuch as he was a bOnafide resident of New York city. The writer was present at the bout and Blades retained his title. although beaten.

UT while 1t does seem unspOrts-
 manlike on the part of Dan O'Neil to force q certain calibre of ball on a city that is totally dissatis- fled and determined on ridding itself of Eastern Lea sue ball. not all tho blame for the present ehmbarrasslng situation can be thrown on the shoulders of the Hartford man. As matter of fact that entire situation could have been entirely eliminated had it not been for a lack of fore sight and the rank business ability of Ben Moulten S- Company.
 Moulton said he wanted Eastern League ball for Providence it-- for the war period. Which statement Is absurd, selfish and indicative of the poor business ability of that gentle man.

Perhaps HToulton thought that the Eastern League was a dumping crowd Perhaps he thought its club owners were hicks. Perhaps he thought he could come and get out any time he wanted. Perhaps he thought also that the Eastern League would be proud to have it said that 1t once housed q Providence club on It's circuit
 But whatever were Ben's thoughts the present situation has developed through misdoinEs on his part---and nobody else. He alone is to blame. He literally pleaded on pended knees for a franchise in the Earsern League last season. He had the chance to get into the International League, but his club would not stand to finance such a club.
 Moulton Is no outsider; he's a sflrew-d politician, police Comnis- sioner and sportsman who has lived fin Providence all his life. TIe knows Providence fans. for he has been a mere fan himself for years and years. So it can be Said that he was ignor- ant of conditions there. He Is sup posed to know. Now we have found out that he merely did suppose. He didn't l0now---didn't know that there would come a time when he probably WnlIld want to get back into such

OPORTOREAL0 BY A B
 ROGER TERRI
ROVIDENCE may be in the

ID RONIDENCE may be in the A Eastern League, but there is only a bare chance of such a club being financed or other wise supported by Ben Moulton and his present associates. Mir. MoultOn personally is willing to go through, but his associ- ates are not so willing, arguing that it would be like going 10 a bank, drawing money and throwing it into river to try to force Eastern Leagaue ball on Providence.
 And this is no camouflage. Providence does not want Eas- tern League baseball. The sporting writers there have voted to refuse to support it and the public has already gone on record as being antagonistic to it. One prominent sporting writer, speaking for all of the scribes in Rhode Island, said to me-:
 The only reason why the
 newSpaperne in this vicinity to-
 day are giving Ben Moulton and
 his colleagues any publicity is
 because they made an effort to
 withdraw from the Eastern League. However, if Ben MOul-
 ton carries out his threat not to
 have anything to do with such d
 club located here this season, the
 new owners can not expect to re-
 ceive any recognition in the daily
 press
 "It would be financial suicide
 on the part of any present back
 CTS of the Grays to invest any
 money in Providence Eastern
 League, for there won't be
 enough fans at the games to pay
 the wages of the ticket sellers
 and collectors let alone park ren-
 tai, ball players and tansporta-
 ton. Providence simply does not
 want Eastern League ball; the
 fans will absolutely not support
 it."
 The speaker perhaps knows more about the real situation in Providence than any other man in that city. He is in daily contact with both fans and club owners. He has taken pains to make q canvass of opinions of fans and has found that they are unani- mousIy against Eastern League ball. So Dan O'NeiI and his crowd may learn that forcing Providence to stay in the Eastern League will not be the tremendously financial success that they expect it will be.

of the success Of the schools of the

due to the fact that the country
