Chance for Young Boxers

Many lads who never had boxing
glove on in their lives may develop into
stars-evcn champions-if the plans of
the Commonwealth Sporting Club pan
out. 1t is the intention of President
Louis Grossman to conduct a sort of
school for boxers there. Any voungster
can receive free instruction from the
old-time stars employed by the club. If
they prove worthy they will be given
chance at the Saturday night shows.

TROLLEY CARS AND BUSES.

Public Service Railway Company
will find encouragement IN the action
of The federal court in New YORK IN
.nrohibiting buses in competition
with tro,leys on Staten Island. Public
Service has just started action IN
New Jersey to have the courts for
bid the operation Of bus lines where
trolleys are already in operation. IL
is significant that at a recent meet
ing of officials of different munich
palities, called for the purpose OF
considering the action of Public
Service. no definite action was taken.
II begins to look as If the cities
realize that the trolley company had
a good case.
Another interesting feature in con-
lnection with the attempt to use
buses as a substitute for trolleys Is
that on Staten Island the people de-
mand trolleys in preference tc buses
They find the buses unreliable and
the attendance at the various Staten
Island beaches has greatly fallen Oh
since the trolleys have been discon-
tinued in spite of the fact that the
city has attempted to substitute the
buses in place of the trolley cars.
There are a great many reasons
for preferring the trolley TO the 'ou'
provided the trolley can be made u

thing that is not done here IN thi'
