STRONG FOR
ALFALFA

Alfalfa enthusiasm is high in
Dyer County as a result of sever
al years of farm demonstration
work. The present county agricul-
tural agent, Wilbur G. Wilson, re-
ports a greater acreage than ever
bsfore E, G, Miller reports that
this is his fourth year with the
crop, and that he has averaged
nearly five tons each season to the
acre. A 35-acre red clover field,
near the alfalfa, was one of the
best, if not the best in the county
yet its yield was no more than
half that made by the alfalfa ac-
cording to alfalfa enthusiasts.
The plan of development in Dy-
er County is indicated by these
recommendations; plant peas to
be turned under about July Is,
and apply three to five tons Of
limestone to the acre, lnoculate
the ground and the seed, and SOW
about twenty-five pounds of seed
to the acre.

''RED" FALLEN WANTED FOR
 CHAMP BOUT
Al McManus Seeks Services of TitlehoIder For Battle
 With Local Slugger.

Albert McManus, the young promo
 ter of this city and one of the best Iik-
 ed Elks in the city, went to New
 York today purposely to persuade
 Champion Benny Leonard to consent
 to meet "Red' Allen of this city at a
 show late this month or the latter part
 of July. Mac is confident that he will
 return with Benny's signature attach
 ed to articles of agreement.
 Red has no more persistent boos- Rr for him than McManus. The latter
 has never before staged a show here,
 but he is we'll acquainted with all the
 ins and outs of sports and can be de-
 pended upon to stage a good card in
 the event that he promotes a show
 However, 1t is Macs intention of staging nothing but a Leonard Allen
 bout. If he fails today to get Billy
 Gibson to consent to such a match
 he will give up hope entirely of put ting on a show.
 Ever since news leaked out that ''Red'' Allen knocked Benny Leonard benefit in Norwalk last week. the local boy has been recipient of many offers for matches. Having no managerial ability and made to real ize the fooliShneSS of trying to train and manage himself, Red" soon de- cided to permit Tobey Owens, who 1 has handled some of the best fight | CTS of the past eleven years, to do his work.
 Owens is enthusiastic over his new battler and predicts a very happy fu- ] ture for him. Speaking about the Allen incident in Norwalk Tobey said today:
 Had it not been for the fact that the boys wore A ounce gloves Bridge l port today might probably have had the honor of having within it's four : borders the lightweight champion of ! the world. Red" according to all re- ports from those who sat at the ring side, fought a most spectacular bout and knocked his opponent down with a clean right after baffling him with straight hand punching

GPORT YARNG
 Ny BY THE VETERAN O

N T WILL be G92 years ago tomor- II row since the first modern prize fight For the championship was fought. This historic fistic contest was staged at James Figg's ampitheatre in Oxford Road, London, and F'f-g, the first champion of England, had as his opponent Ned Sutton, a GravesAnd pipemaker, who had made a great reputation as a fighter with the broad sword, quarterstaff and fists. For many years Ffsg had been teaching boxing and fencing to the young bloods of the aristocracy. The Earl of Peterborough, famed as 2 soldier, was his patron, and built fer him an am pltheatre capable of holding some 1900 people. It was here that the eel ebrated battle with Sutton was stag ed.
 A representative crowd filled the place on June 6, 1727. Among those present were Dean Swift and Pope, the great authors, Horace Walpole, the Prime Minister and many other celeb rites. There were almost as many ladies as men,
 Broadsword exercises between F'igg and Sutton opened the evenings en- tertainment. These lasted for almost an hour before Figg slashed his op- ponent on the shoulder, and thus won the honors in the first event on the program. After resting half an hour,
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1919-06-03

they reappeared and the boxing bout commenced. There were no rules to govern the game in those days. and from the first it was trial of brute strength, although Figg used some science in evading the wild rushes of Sutton. After eight minutes of sparring Sutton rushed in, dodSing a blow, and grasped F'igg about the wrists, car rying him to where the umpires sat. This reused the champions ire and in q few minutes he had retaliated by stretching Sutton on his back, using wrestling tactics
 After a few minutes of futile hitting. Figg again closed and threw Sutton. The latter soon turned the tables, driv- Ing blow after blow to the champion s face. Figg was knocked down, and af- ter resting fifteen minutes, was per mitted to resume. In the interval the men gulped down large tumblers of port wine. After a few minutes more Figs threw Sutton, and when he got up, knocked him down with a blow to the chest. The champion then spranE upon the prostrate body of his foe, shouting, "Is it enough?" Sutton admitted that he had all he wanted and the first fistic championship bat tie was at an end.
