original Dock McShatko who run
down from the suburbs to call upon
his folks. The fees were donated to
the team that is the spirit. Klimesh
skied and the side was out. The Mid
gets made one in their half and then
they travelled neck and neck up to
the ninth. The strain commenced to
show. Captain Sobolik pulled him
self and sent in his pinch hitter
Krall who bats from the port side.
The Midget pitcher put the first one
in the groove and Mike met it square
on the nose for home run, and the
game might as well been over as the
Coop captain stuck in his ace and
Tom famed the next three batters.

 What the attitude of the Govern or is toward boxing as it is advocated in the bill is prOblematical as klen he was interviewed by the writer over the long distance telephone last night he said that he did not care to discuss the measure until after he had read and studied it. Those close to the Governor say, however, that he is in favor of clean boxing bouts and Is expected to attach his sigma ture to the bill.

FACTOR
 IN BIG RACES

BALTIMORE, Md, May : - The luck of horse racing never WAS better illustrated than in the sixth race, 9 mile dash, at the PimIico track yes terday, when Sweep On beat Old Rosebud a nose on the post.
 Dreyer, who had the mount on the latter, rode such a weak finish that the good three-year-old, closing smoothly, got up in the last stride. With proper handling Old Rosebud, which made most of the running, would have won his third straight race cleverly.
 Dunboyne, the Futurity winner last year, stumbled at the start and un- seated Ensor. He was quickly caught. and after the race worked a public trial in tEe fast time of 1:4O 3-5, the first half mile in 49 4-5 seconds.
 Sweep On won In 1:42, which indi- cates that Dunboyne would have been a sharp contender except for the ac- cident at the start.
 Barry Hayes was suspended for the balance of the meeting and his case refrred to the stewards of the Ma tional Steeplechase and Hunt Asso- citation. He rode New Haven in the jump, and his handling of the horse caused the officials to take this drastic action. An investigation will be held

DAssAGB of the bill by the As

DASSAGE of the bill by the As A sembly yesterday came as no surprise to those who have interest ed themselves in the project to push 1t through. However, the hardest work Is before these advocates now. It was Governor Holcomb who stamped down his foot emphatically and kept Jess Willard and Fred Full ton out of this State last season. But this move is not to be taken as meaning that the Governor is against boxing. On the contrary, the Gov ernor's reason for stopping that bat tie was that to allow such two men to scrap here would be to encourage prize fighting" Also he didn't be- lieve that two perfectly healthy men like Willard and Fulton should be allowed to mix it with gloves while millions of mothers sons were sac rificinG their lives on the other side of the pond.
 The Governor took a stand that is to be commended then. He pointed out that he held nothing against box ing, admitting at the same time that he. did not know enough about the sport to either encourage or attack it. He knew only of the prize fighting days of old. And he fear ed that the heavyweight bout of last year would encourage the return of those gruesome battles.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-05-07
was called in and spiked the rally.

Thormahlen and Perry both were wild. Each gave seven bases on balls. Hub forced in a run in the seventh when he issued three passes. Lamar batted for ThormahIen in the mound for New York. Bob escaped in the eighth and ninth, but ''bIeN" the game in the tenth.

MADE
 FOR FIGHT ARENA

CINCINNATI, May - Cornell schreiber, mayor of Toledo, here to appear in a case before the United States Court of Appeals, said yester- dayl that he would positively grant a permit for the staging of the Willard Dempsey fight at Toledo July 4. He said he saw no objection to the box ing exhibition, as ic would be of $25,OO0 to $30,OO0 for the city's chari- ties.
 He said he favored the bout be- cause of it's advertising value to To- ledo.
 LOS ANGELES, May - Toledo suits me- was Jess Willard's com ment yesterday on Tex Richards se- lection of the Ohio city as the place for his championship bout with Jack Dempsey.
 ''I have always said anywhere suits me-" Willard said. Toledo or Turkey anywhere, all right.
 we can do- a lot of fighting in a dozen rounds. We should have no difficulty in settling who is the better man in a 12-round battle."
 Willard is here staging a movie. He spends the greater part of each day out on the lot at the studio sur rounded by a picturesque lot of cow boys and "atmosphere.'' It will take about two weeks longer to complete his picture. He will then leave for the middle West, but as yet does not know just when he will reach Toledo.
 Toledo, Ohio, May Plans were being drawn yesterday for an i'm mense arena in Bayview Park, on Maumee Bay, in which the Jess Will lard-Jack Dempsey 12-round bout for the heavyweight championship of the world will be staged July 4.
 Toledo charities anticipate receiv- ing $21,OOO as a, result of the bout, figuring ' per cent. of gate receipts, estimated by Frank Tourney, asso- ciated with Tex Rickard, who is pro noting the bout, to run about $3O0,- 900. The Toledo Boxing Commission yesterday issued a permit for the bout.
 The arena in which the fight will be staged at 3 o'clock on the after noon of July 4 will seat 50,OoO when completed.
 EXCELSIOR SPRINGS, Mo, May 2 Jack Dempsey returning from early morning road work here yesterday expressed entire satisfaction with the prospect of a 12-round go at Toledo, Ohio, with Jess Willard on July i. Dempsey let it be known he favors the limit fixed by Tex Rickard over the longer route.
