STA TIE COMMISSION 70 ORA " UP BOXING BILL FOR RNEXTLEGZSLATLZRE
After Thanksgiving Meeting of State Board Will Be Held In Waterbury to Frame Up Measure Similar to New York and Massachusetts, Laws

Though bouts are being held in the state, they are not entirely legal and, in many cases, men holding positions on some of the municipal commis- sions are not qualified to dictate to the prom oters, boxers and their man. agers and one would not have to look beynd the bundary lines of Hartford to see "comniSSionerS.''
 The present state board has no authority from the state. It is com prised of one member each from the Hartford, Waterbury, Bridgeport, New Haven, New Britain and Meri- den, municipal commissions and while it does it's work in a small measure of efficiency, it is distinctly handicapped by the lack of authority.
 Connecticut has long been one of the most liberal states as a boxing center, despite the law which makes prize fighting illegal. It is ideally situated and will gradually become one of the biggest centers the sport has in the country. The state was one of the pioneers in the regula- ton of boxing, local commissions hay been in existence for two years in several of the larger cities, Hartford being among the leaders.
 Dick Dalton, a member of the Hartford commission and not one of those referred to in the third para graph, visited Waterbury recently and held a brief conference with MT. Castle, chairman of thes tate com mission, relative to the meeting which will be held in the Brass City The call will probably be sent out for the meeting in a. few days.

By JOHN M. GREENE.

That a. concerted effort will be made this year to have boxing legal ized in this state during the next ses- sion of the legislature is apparent from recent actions taken by the state boxing commission. A. w. Castle of Waterbury, chairman > Of
 that body, has announced that he
 will call a meeting to be held soon
 after-Thanksgiving for the lone pur- pose of drawing up a bill to be pre- sented before the lawmakers of the state.
 As Hartford, Bridgeport, Water bury, New Haven, New Britain and Meriden, the main boxing centers Of Connecticut, are represented on the commission, the bill will have the support of the sporting fraternities of the entire state.. The state com- mission has been notified that a num-
 ber of different bills calling for the 1egalizing of the ring sport are in the works and it feels that the one that should receive the most consideration should be that drawn up by the body that represents the boxing commis- sions of the various cities in the state. It also feels that it is about time that Connecticut fell in line with Massachusetts, New York and New Jersey by lega1izing the glove sport 1 and bringing it under the control Of a strong and all-powerful state com 1 mission.
 Present Situation a Joke.
 At present the boxing situation is , nothing more or less than a joke.

to rise to an emergency was shown in the Princeton game when Buell., re- placing Fitzgerald at quarterback, immediately started clever passing attack and succeeded in tying the score. The ability of the Crimson shown in that last quarter against the Tiger has led some folks to be- lieve that Harvard has been in the universal opinion. If she has been, Yale is in for a very unpleasant afternoon. But don't forget that Yale will fight harder and play better football next Saturday.
 Lfnesmen Menace to Yale.
 Harvard's outstanding players are Buell. and Fitzgerald, her quarter backs; Captain Horween and Owen, her playing backs, and Havenmeyer, Tolbert, Woods and Sedgwick, her Churchill, are the big menace to
 The Blue is not without capable performers. however. Fido Kemp ton, Frank Kelly and Mack Aldrieh Crimson, Kelly in particular. The Ellis also have Into, Acosta and Calia- han and quite a string of other sturdy linesmen. They have Thorne Murphy, quarterback, too, and the pivotal position, Yale is expected to exhibit something in the way of passing that has not yet been uncov- cred. Of course, Yale will have to take the ball away from the Crimson a thing which Harvard has consist ently demonstrated is a mans size job.
 The critics who expect Yale to show better against the Crimson may be all wrong. It may be a rout. Bu, from this distance it appears there is a chance that the monster crowd o1 some SO,O00 football fans may see g struggle rep1ete with the kind ot football that stirs the blood in one's veins, even though Harvard looks like the winner from almost every angle.

.Crirnson May Find
 An UnruLy Bulldog
Blue Taught Lesson In Game With Princeton Last atur- day and May Profit By Experience Next
 Saturday at the Bowl

Harvards big football eleven, Powerful though it is. may find a surprisingly unruly Bulldog in Yale's Bowl Saturday.
 This was the opinion of a good many critics, the coaches of the rival teams sent their proteges through what may be their last grilling workouts at, Cambridge and New Haven.
 Ya1e's decisive defeat at the hands or Princeton was a hard blow to Yale, yet there is no reason to be- lieve that the spirit of the Ellis is broken or that Coach Tad Jones and his assistants will be unable to weld Together the good material they have at hand and make out of Yale a better team than that which faced ! the Tigers.
 Eli May Forget
 In anticipation of her big battle with Harvard it is possible that Yale can forget for the time the sting of Princeton's victory and profit from the lessons learned on New Jersey soil. The generalship of the Ellis was demoralized by the Tigers tidal sweep and cleverly handled passing assault in the early stages of last weeks game. But it will be more difficult to sweep the Bulldogs off their feet by this method next Sat urday And it must not be forgot ten that Yale had been pointed all along for the Harvard game. rather than the one with Princeton.
 Harvard's strength is not to be dis counted in the slightest degree. The Crimson will enter Saturdays game a favorite to win, but whether or not Coach Bob Fishers proteges can de- ! feat Yale as decisively as did Prince ton is a debatabIe question, and not a few students of the game consider ' it, doubtful.
 Bob Fisher has a machine that combines relentless power with con- sistent football of the well known . Harvard variety. It boasts no great Individual stars but it has wonderful balance. The ability of the Crimson

PROGRESS MADE
 IN NEGOTIATIONS

Tokio, Nov 17-(By the A. P.)- There is a distinct improvement in the situation between Japan and the United States relative to the Ca1ifor- mia controversy. Officials evidently believe real progress is being made in the negotiations between the two countries. Hitherto there has been Q, somewhat pessimiStic attitude which has been created by the many deli- cate points involved.
 Members of the House of Peers are showing their interest in the inter national cable conference being held in Washington. A deputation of all parties in the upper house of parlia- ment waited upon Viscount Uchida, foreign minister, today and discussed thee able connection between Japan 'ad time island of Tap. Later repre- sentative members of the upper chamber met and decided to urge the government to protect Japanese in tereStS in this line.

 Case Is Finished

Testimony in the case of the R. and W. Hat Shop, Inc. of Norwalk. against Jeremiah Sculley. of Danbury. was completed in the Superior Court yesterday afternoon, and argument on law and facts will be presented in briefs. These will be filed in about two weeks.
 Officers of several hatters' unions, witnesses for the defense testified yesterday, that no strike was called at the Norwalk shop, and no effort was made to interfere with the busi ness of the concern. It was claimed that union manufacturers of rough ha tbodies were merely asked to give preference to union shops, inasmuch as many union men were out of work because of the inability of union man ufacturers to obtain sufficient num- bers of rough hats.
 In the complaint, the eplaintiff ask d for a permanent injunction and damages.

Johnny ''Red" Allen, the local lightweight champion and regarded as the state champion by his Bridge port friends, challenged Frankie Britt for the lightweight champion ship of New England from the ring at the Casino Monday night, but it is doubtful whether Britt or his man ager heard him make the announce ment.
 It begins to look as though Allen will not meet Frankie Britt for the New England championship in this city for there are few promoters whe will take chance at staging such a bout just at the present time. Cross man has Allen under contract, he says, but CroSsman is now making an effort to recuperate from severe setbacks in the boxing game.
