Miss Detroit Does A7 Miles Per Hour
 In Detroit Race

Detroit Aug. 3O-Only two of the five hydroplanes entered for the gold cup race competed in the first thirty
 mile heat yesterday. Miss Detroit IT.. the 1918 champion, driven by c. A. Wood. defeated Miss Detroit IT.. driven by w. E. SanbOrn, by two seconds.
 The two hydroplanes came across the line less than a second apart with the champion in the lead by half a length The winner averag- ed 47.33 miles an hour and Miss De troit IFS average was 42.05.
 On nine of the twelve laps she was ahead, but the gap was never more than nine seconds Miss Detroit II. easily could overtake the champion on the stretches but lost on the turns. The course was ideal and faster time could have been made had it been necessary.
 The race is decided on points, the winner getting five, as five hydro planes were entered. Two of the re- maining three boats were mechan- icaIly disabled just before the start of the race at 3:3O and although an hour postponement was arranged they could not be made ready. These boats. Eleventh Hour and Miss Belle Isle, will be ready to start in the second heat today.

Ray Grimes Boys Take Both Games In Brass City
 Yesterday.

Bridgeports defeat Thursday was avenged yesterday afternoon when Ray Crimes cohorts took Waterbury into camp in both ends of double header by the score of , to 1 and 10 to 3.
 McKentys slants proved too much of a puzzle for the Waterbury slug gers in the first game. They harvest ed but three bingles while the Amer jeans were finding Williams for ten safe swats. Bridgeport scored three runs in the second inning, giving Me Kenty a lead which was never threat ened.
 In the second encounter the Ameri- cans wielded their clubs freely, and pounded the offerings of Craig and Johnson for 19 hits. Nine of these were joited out of Craig during his two and one-third innings adminis- traitor on the. mound. Bridgeport batted seven counters over the plate in the first three innings. Mike Loan had a field day at bat in the second game, getting five safe hits out of as many journeys to the plate

LYNCH FAVORED TO TAKE TITLE
 FROM HERMAN

Waterbury, Sat, Aug. 3O-As the time for the bantamweight cham piOnship bout between Pete Herman of New Orleans, the champion, and Joe Lynch of New York, the chal- lenger approaches, Waterbury is talk ing on the appearance of a miniature Toledo. Sporting men from all over the East are arriving in the city and will be at ringside Monday afteroon when the two crack little bantams face each other. The championship card which includes three ten-round bouts will start promptly at 4:15 and unless there are knockouts, the last bout will be over at 7:15 D. nl., giving fans from other cities ample OppoT- tunity to reach home before midnight
 Herman arrived in town today and boxed in the open air on Phoenix avenue before a crowd of several thousand Lynch has been training here all week and is in prime fettle for the battle on which his whole flu ture in the boxing game depends. He must knock out the champion in or der to win the featherweight crown as there will be no referees decision.
 The dopesters give Lynch the pre- ference after looking over his past performances. Herman took the ti- tie away from Kid Williams through a referees decision. He didn't knock the former champion out but Lynch stopped Williams in four rounds It is pointed out too that Lynch put up a great battle against Jimmie Wilde the English champ, the London pa pers giving him the decision although the referee gave it to Wilde, Lynch has a referees decision over Pal Moore who also met Wilde recently.
 There are accommodations for 15,- 900 fans in the arena constructed for the occasion at the Waterbury Driving Park. The advance sale of tickets in this city as well as in New York, Hartford, New Haven, Bridge port and Meriden indicates that there will be a capacity attendance. The semi-finaI will bring together Johnny Shugrue and Marty Miller and the first bout will be between sammy Waltz and Mickey Travers. Dave Fitzgerald of New Haven will referee.

Jack Dempsey, the original Non parieT' didn't lose his worlds mid dleweight championship after sitting in a chair. No sponge or towel was flung into the ring relinquishing the laurels he had guarded with match less glory for seven long years. He made Bob Fitzsinrnons deliver a re luctant knockout and the referee dis charge his duties to the last doIOr- ous rise and fall of his right arm. He was a fighter every inch, a popular one, and game to the core. The mem ory of Dempsey has become immortal through his picturesque personality and the wonderful fights he partici- pated in.
 Dempsey @ genuine son of the Elm era1d Isle proved his dauntless arenic qualities in many battles before the bout with Fitzsimmons which marked the passing of this great fighter. Af- ter defeating George Fu1james in 20 rounds for the title in 1884 the Non pariel decisively vanquished the best men of his period. These included Jack Fogarty whom he polished off in q "gentleman's parlor' in New York in 27 rounds, George La Blanch the marine in 1 8 rounds and Johnny Began in 1 , sessions.
 The Nopareil suffered two distinct disappointments in his glittering ca reer within the ropes. The bittereSt however, was not his defeat at the hands of FitzsimmOns when he lost his middleweight crown It was the reverse which Jack met in his last battle with La Blanche, the Marine a battle which he lost through a bas- tard blow which laid him low when victory was within reach. Dempsey had previously demonstrated his su-
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-08-30

periority over La Blanche in thir- teen rounds when Jack generously gave his foeman another chance three years later in 'S9. In this af- lair the Marine, well whipped. sud denly turned the tables by means of an unexpected back-hand blow to the point of the NOnpareiTs chin in the thirty-second round. This wa11on
 Which enjoyed the aristocratic sobri- quet of the pivot blow" was after wards barred as a foul. Dempsey tried in vain to force La Blanche in
 to another match. Although lack was later recognized as the middle weight champion he never became re- conciled to the unfortunate ending or his second go with La Blanche.
 Bob FitzsimmOns hadn't been in America more than o year before he proved himself eligible for a clash with Dempsey for the highest mid dleweight honOrs. His first engage ment after arriving in Frisco from Australia was with Billy AIcCarty, another Australian. He eliminated McCarty with the greatest ease in nine rounds. Young Mitchell, regard ed as the best middleweight on the coast and the conqueror of La Blanche, witnessed FItz's perform ance. Mitchell rooted hard for Me Carty to win. Asked why he was so anxious to see Fitzsimmons defeated Mitchell replied: Because this ITitz- simmons is a great boxer and if he ever gets going he's bound to clean up the best of us including Jack Dempsey. The frecl1led Australian bore out MitchelTs predictions in his next battle with Arthur Upham at New Orleans. Upham was a formida-
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-08-30

bIe fighter but he survived only five rounds of Bob's deadly hitting.
 Fitz in the eyes of fight experts had qualified for a meeting with the great Dempsey and a match was ar ranged between the two. Some idea of his deterioration, physically, which Dempsey had undergone since his ill., starred enga cement with La Blanche may be gleaned from the fact that Jack was so deaf that he was obliged to use an ear trumpet to understand various parts of the articles or agree ment Dempsey and Fitzsimmons were guaranteed a purse of S12,OOO, the largest amount ever offered for a ring event up to that time,
 The Nonpareil and the embryo worlds greatest boxer met in New Orleans on the night of January fl, 1891. Dempsey was favored in the betting. A significant incident occurr- ed during the weighing of the men. Fitz was built like a heavyweight above the waist and it was only his pipe stem legs that enabled him to fight at the middleweight notch. Ruby Robert was not present at the signing of the articles so the first glimpse that Dempsey got of his op- pOnent was when Fftz weighed him self. When Bob divested himself of his bathrobe and revealed his brawny shoulders and powerful freclIled arms an expression fitted across his face that was not soon to be forgotten by those standing near. Dempsey, the gamest of men, bit his lip, gazed to- ward the rafters and muttered to him self in pure astonishment at the con- formation of the man he was to en- counter. Yet Fitz scaled but 15O 1-2.

ST. JOSEPHS HAVE TWO
 IMPORTANT GAMES TO PLAY.

Manager Durkin's speedy St. Joe baseball team has two very import ant games on its schedule in the next two days, as on tomorrow they cross bats with the Go. K team, the lead CTS in the city league; and on Monday they also have a postponed game with the Go. K leaders. Manager Durkin is out after the two games and to make sure that he gets them he has signed the best baseball talent that there is in the city, believing that if he beats the KS he will have not a thing to worry about as the Joes have showed on numerous occasions where they could put the skids un- der the Rosebuds. This goes for the League meetings, too, Manager Dur kin states.
 Both games will be played on No. 1 diamond at Seaside Park at 1:30 on Sunday and Labor day respective lv and the lineups for those days will be as follows:
 Sundays lineup: Kennel, Campana, Finn, Sengstack, Williams, Ahearn, Van Holtz, Luderman, Eckert and Swords. Mondays lineup will see Lavery, Finn, Kennel, Williams, Burke, Clark, Swords, Christy, Eek ert, Bowden, Luderman and Cam pana.
 The Sts. believe that with that out fit that they will be able to cop the old bunting even though they are now quite a ways down in the race, but with two wins over the K boys and at least two more games with the Rosebuds it looks as if the Sts. had a good chance as the Rosebuds never have been known 10 peat the Sts.
