Although Sparling was in good form and played steady game throughout, Cuici was in form and made six birdies out of the Is holes.
 Walter B. Lashar offered a purse of $100 to any one of the players during the Vardon-Ray and Cuici-Spar1ing match last week, who broke or tied the record. In that match Ray turn ed in the best card of the day and came within one stroke of winning the purse.
 Cuict had a poor start missing an easy putt on each of the first three
 holes and at the end of the first nine
 holes Sparling led him by one stroke, Sparling 37 holes and Cuici SS for the first nine holes. It was during the last nine holes that Cuici started playing his wonderful game and de- feated Sparling by three strokes. Cuici 32 and Sparling 36 for last nine holes,

Excessive weight impositions by participants in local boxing bouts will be definitely eliminated from the ring sport in the future, follwing action taken last evening at a meeting of the Boxing Commission. The govern ing officials, aroused over the fragrant violation of the law in the recent Jackson n-FItzsimmons bout and con- fronted with 9 probability of a sim liar violation in the coming bout be- tween Mike O'Dowd and Jeff Smith, instructed Secretary Charlie White to notify all clubs and corporations hold ing bouts under the Walker law, that form with the law, which stipulates that all boxers weigh in eight hours before the time of the contest

That was the intent of the meeting, but the Commission has no authority to summon witnesses and those who attended the hearing went there voluntarily.
 The Commission held it's hearins 3 a Board of Aldermen committee, but the accusation made that some of the boxers were attempting to put something over on the public has a much different odor than whether a street should be laid out or a new lamp installed at the corner.

 FOR GANG OF HOOTERS

The largest crowd that ever tray eled- to New Haven to witness a foot ball game will accompany the Amer jean Chain eleven Sunday afternoon when the Chains play the Williams at Weiss park The loss of last Sunday has caused the Park City fans much unrest and they feel confident that the possession of the title by the Will Hams is only temporary.
 The Williams held a long drill last evening, spending much time on per fecting their attack that was appar- ently.>need of attention, in the open style play. The Williams are deter mined to become more adept in the handling of the forward pass and look for a perfect execution of the throws in the game Sunday against the Bridgeporters.
 The Chain eleven was sent through a stiff workout last evening and it was intimated that three new players attended the practice of the Chains but the identity of he trio could not be learned.
 It is assumed that King Brady will seek players for Sunday, there being some doubt as to the possibility of MoShier and Callahan getting back in the game this week. Arrangements are being made at Weiss park for the handling of the seasons largest crowd and the plan of starting the game at 2:30 o'clock seems to be popular with the fans.

GEORGE HART MISSING
 FROM BRIDGEPORT TEAM

George Hart, second rush on the local polo team and one of the team chief scorers, was expected to join the Bridgeport team at the Casino Tues. day night, but he failed to put in an appearance and he did not play with the Bridgeport outfit last night in Salem, where Neville's team lost out, to 3. in an overtime game. It was the first overtime game that has gone against the locals this season.
 Tuesday night when asked about Hart, Manager Neville said George had an injured finger and remained out of the game for a few days, going to his home in Boston, but he was due to report Tuesday night. Man. ager Neville does not know where the player is but he may be expected to appear at any time.
 Last night the game lost by Bridge port was fast and exciting all the way, but in the overtime play Kid Will jams, a brother of Red Williams, of the local team, caged the ball for the winning goal.
 Tomorrow night the Salem team will. be in Bridgeport and Manager Neville hopes to regain any honors that were lost in Salem's own terri
