. DUNG Fulton of New York i

.VoUNG Fulton of New York is bragging about what he will do and not do to Benny Valger if they ever come together in the same ring. Scuse us we want to laugh down our sleeve. Fulton is enjoying per fectly good health just at present and is making money on a book he says he has written and our ldvice to him is to let Benny alone. Of course, if he can't sleep nights and wants to take nap some of these fine nights, we are certain that Va1ger will ac- commodate him.
 OHN, THE B., has decided to let S well enough alone and he has just come out with a statement that he will not "stop the Toledo fight" If nerve was worth anything, this ex- duke of West 45th Street would be owner of Broadway

 T IS HOPED that athletes work Il ing at local shops and in stores will hurry and send in their entries for the big athletic carnival at Seaside Park a week from today. The com nittee is sparing no effort to make the affair the grandest held in this city and its efforts should be appreci- ated by the athletes-and we have a hunch that it will get the best. M FEW HAVEN, according to latest AN reports. will house a roller polo team in the American League next season. New Haven used to be good town for roller polo fan and there is no reason why a good team T Winter. The American League, de- spite it's many transfers of franchises last season, made money.

c IMPLY because running horse O racing is coming back into it's own those in charge of the sport are charging turfmen an additional fee of 75 cents to visit the paddock. This is in addition to the usual S3 for men and S1.50 for women. It isn't a ques- ton of the additional fee, but rather the spirit back of such a movement Racing is coming back because the people in this country see in it a clean and wholesome sport. The sport has been cleaned of the much dirt that marred it years ago and today it is the sport of the people,"
 And just because the masses are tanning into the parks is no reason why the packers should want to hog matters. The average fan, who wants to invest a few dollars. wants to see what sort of horse he is backing; curiosity takes him to the paddock. Surely no hardship is worked on the

preparing for any number of treats that the various promoters in this section are arranging for them for next season. So far as I have been able to ascertain. through inquiry here and of sporting editors in other cities there will be no outdoor box ing shows This means that the fans win have to be patient and wait until the cooler weather comes.
 George Mulligan of Waterbury looms up as promising to be the pre- mier promoter of the State. l know that George is negotiating for a num- ber of good bouts that he will stage in Waterbury next fall and winter. For his opening show on Labor Day, MuIligan. will Introduce Benny Leon ard against the best man available and in all proba bility his opponent will be either Willie Jackson, Johnny Dundee or Frankie Britt of Bo5- ton.
 Hugh Rcd" Rorty will stage bouts in Meriden and Hartford. Ills first show fin Meriden will be staged on July when he will send Sammy waltz of Hartford against Battling Reddy of New York. If successful in this enterprise, Hughie will stage monthly shows in Meriden until Sep tember when boxing will be on tap there every week. The same holds xSod for Hartford after Labor Day.
 Here in Bridgeport we will have bouts galore. Billy Hogan who has always put on important and satis- factory bouts will in all probability stage the first show shortly after La Dor Day. Sammy Driver, too. will ?. fin the field and as he is in close tout-. with all the big managers and boxers of the country, he, also can be de- pended upon, to serve nothing but the best. Caplan and Fischer, who put on the big show at the Casino two months ago, also contemplate return ing to the field in the Fall as do the Clover A C.. the Akron A. C. and Pembroke Club

 Tho American flag Is NOT worn for advertising purposes, but primar- fly for patriotic reasons. The Hart ford paper should feel ashamed of it. self to dare come out and appeal to the people of Bridgeport and Worces- ter to boycott those teams.
 Surely this editorial was a positive sign of "poor sportsmanship" and a pure sign that the Hartford paper does not fully comprehend the defini- ton of what constitutes patriotism, and I am surprised that Bridgeport newspapers should let such an incl dent pass by unnoticed and unchal- lenged.
