WHO SAID KID
 PALITZ WAS DEAD?

New Haven boxing fans may be in terested in the bouquet handed former New Haven favorite, by the Hartford Courant Listen:
 Dave Pa1itz may have been classed as third rater by the local boxing commission when match between the local welter and Louis Bogash was in the. works but a comparison of the showing that Dave made against. Bo- gash and the comparative easy manner i'll which the latter has polished off some of the so-called second and first raters does not hurt Dave one bit. The local boy IS one of the toughest lads in his class today, bar none, and If he only possessed the punch of Sammy Waltz, he would demand recognition from all of them. In his clash with Bogash, the Bridgeport boy who Is making good in the big rings, had all the better of the early part of the argument but 1t was Pa1itz who, though bothered by a badly cut eye sustained early in the bout when his optic came into contact with Bo- gash's head, carried the activities and had Louis on the run at the close. Many thought that he should have had draw in that bout Then Bogash comes along and earns a rather dubious-looking draw with Jack Britton, beats Marty Cross in his Garden debut, knocked out Willie Ryan in three rounds and gave Jack Perry harder beating than Brit ton administered to the Pittsburgh boxer. Dave is still far from being all in and IS very likely to show before the local fans again in the near future"

ONCE MORE WILLIAMS DEMONSTRATE
 SUPERIORITY

The American Chain company eleven of Bridgeport, went down to hurniliat- ing B to defeat before the Williams at Weiss Park, Sunday afternoon, be- fore a record crowd of over 5000 spec tators. The visitors, former champions of New England, were licked to a frazzle from the kickoff.
 It was evident that the Williams were out to settle the long standing differ ences existing between the two clubs And they did it to the kings taste. The Chains saw they were up against a superior team and from the moment they realized 1t they were beaten.
 None of the old dash and fight which made them famous was noticeable in the Chain play Sunday It Is regret table that they should have put up such a performance. It was rumored around town that owing to the opposition be- ing lodged against them in Bridgeport the Chains were about through and that the Williams game was possibly their last appearance together
 Regardless of the brand of ball the Accos played the Williams played the part of champions to perfection Their team work was we'll nigh perfect and both on the offensive and defensive they looked to be the goods. Red Quinn and Billy K1approth in the back field stood out brilliantly, and in the line Row1ey, Malone and Franke1 made things miserable for Red Hunt Al Hall and others. Dutch Forst joined the Williams and played part of the game at fullback in place of Klapproth.

 Coincidentally the five American league club owners. who sided with President Johnson in the controversy over the Lasker plan, began to put into operation plans which have been under way for several months to locate new clubs in Chicago, New York and Bos- ton to fight the Lasker-C Coniskey re- organization plan to finish. This was the outcome of day of futile effort to reach a compromise between the op- posing factions, so as to avert an open conflict
 Pending the acceptance of the prop osition by Judge Landis the selection of a second member of the board of control by the amalgamated club own CTS was deferred to later meeting The third place on the board was held open to be filled by the National Asso- citation (minor 1eagues) for a term of six years, if the smaller circuits elect to operate under the new super-com- mission.

''BIG. ED" WALSH IS RELEASED BY
 BRIDGEPORT

Big Ed Walsh, who used to be the king of the iron men back in his ba1my major league days, has been released by the Bridgeport Eastern league club Walsh, however, claims he is not out of Eastern league ball and expects to manage some club on the O'Neil circuit next season. He doesn't know just which one.
 Walsh's successor, discussed by the club and fans, but mostly the fans, will probably be Gene McCann. Negotia- tions with him for the job were opened few weeks ago. Gene is not set against taking the job, in fact he would, providing the club made it worth while. At the present time he is doing scout duty for the Cincy Reds and is receiv- ing fat pay envelope.
 But i'll landing McCann, even at a big salary, the club would not go wrong, but would do much i'll paving the way for the landing of pennant McCann is about the best man there Is that can be signed to manage the Americans He knows baseball inside and out, knows all the players and how to get along with them. Gene, while pi1oting the New London club few years ago, was the most popular pilot i'll the cir cult both with players and fans.

BATTLING" LEONARD IS
 / AFTER HERMAN'S GROWN

In his recent bout with Mike" Ert1e, of St. Paul, who he put away in four rounds, Battling" Leonard, the sensa- tional bantam, proved that he is just ripe for a shot at Pete Herman's title
 Leonard really demonstrated that he was ready to meet the monarch of all bantams IS months ago. Pal Moore made hit in a London ring the night he beat Jimmy Wilde Moore returned to America and picked up set-up for his first fight. He picked Leonard. But Leonard convinced Moore that he had been outguessed the Philadelphia battler winning the fight.
 A youth in years, Leonard Is vet eran in ring experience Because of his youth when he broke into the boxing game four years ago, Leonard was carefully nursed along by his manager, Joe Blum, former sparring partner of Battling Nelson, ev-lightweight champion. Leonard's work has been so convincing in recent fights that Blum has decided the Battler now is ready to be sent against any bantamweight in the country, not even excepting Pete Herman.
 All I want is a chance" said Leon ard. "T1l fight Pete Herman first at a moments notice or wade through Joe Burman, Joe Lynch, Jack Sharkey and others to get to the champion"

YALE BULL DOG
 LICKS BROWN BEAR

Brown lived up to the. enviable repu- tation 1t has made this season in the Bowl Saturday afternoon against the E1is. The Providence team came here heralded as one of the best to ever carry the Brown co1ors and the play they showed proved them worthy of the advanced dope III their favor. The 14 to 10 score by which the Blue won, doesn't portray III the least the excep- tional achievements and appalling errors of the game. One who failed to see the game can in no way begin to make any comparisons between the two teams, as many are III the habit of doing.
 The Brunonians played Yale off its feet during the first three periods but the Tad Jones proteges came back strong in the final quarter and snatched apparent victory from the visitors. Bulldog grit and aggressiveness alone was responsible for the win, and Mur- phey, Kelley and Kempton formed prac- tically 90 per cent. of the fight the Yalesians put up. This trio of back field brilliants played the games of their lives and never looked better The in the backfeld and the various shifts they uncorked were pippins. It was difficult at times to determine exactly which of the two was running the team. It would be safe to say that the way these two worked had a great deal to do with the success the Ellis enjoyed i'll that final period. Great things are expected of this Murphy Kenpton combination in the games against Harvard and Princeton.
 Kempton played wonderful game throughout, although his best effort being on the first play in which he took part He had punted out from the shadows of the Yale goal posts and to the surprise: of the spectators it was Kempton who made the tackle of the runner with the ball. It was a brilliant piece of work. Frank Kelley did most of the rushing for the Elis and proved the right man i'll the right place time and again.
 For Brown, the outstanding players were Oden and Armstrong, the former in particua1r The diminutive quarter back played a wonderful game and his aggressiveness caused him to be in nearly every one of the visitors plays The excessive abuse he was subjected to finally provde to be his undoing as he was knocked completely out in the final period and was forced to retire. Will Hams, the co1ored end, played a good game although he was below his usual standard. He retains the speed which made him famous, but his execution of trick plays was woefully slow. The prep school play which calls for him to run directly behind the line from his end to the other, had the Elis buffaloed for awhile, but flaws in its execution while 1t was going good rendered it practically useless. But Brown was game, there was no doubt about 1t, and they went down fighting. Incidentally, the Els came up fighting, in fact, just in time to win.} It was the best game of the year.

House of Callahan ReneuU Gridiron
 Struggles 7oda,

The strugge1 of the brothers Cal1a- han, Mike of Princeton and Tim of Yale, as the captains and opposing centers of the two varsity elevens, when they meet in the Palmer Stadium at Princeton, N. J., today, will have as a witness again their mother, Mrs. Mary E. Callahan, of Lawrence, Mass, Miss Eunice Callahan, 19-year-old sister of teh rival leaders, will accompany her mother.
 q shall sit on the Princeton side of the field this year." the mother said, explaining that she sat on the Blue side as the guest of Captain Tim last year down to defeat before the Princeton Tigers and he and his brother Mike came to grips at center with honors for both. Mrs. Callahan added, however, that ''of course I may go over to the Yale side of the field before the game is over"
 The mother said she was without preference as to which team she wanted to win Il am neutral, she remarked q am no udge of football, and of course I have no idea which is the better team. 1 had short talk with Harry (the Tiger leader was christened Harry A. Callahan but to Princeton url- dergraduates he has always been plain 'Mike") after the Princeton-Harvard game Saturday, you know he was taken out of the game and 1 was anxious about him, but he assured me that he was all right. I have not seen John (Captain "Tim") for weeks, but 1 ur1- derstand he Is in good condition now.

 Smith, who was on the defensive up to this time, became confident and all though bothered by his left eye, where he had received hard right, won the honors i'll the eighth round O'Dowd resumed forcing the pace in the ninth and was the aggressor in the remaining rounds.
 In the tenth Smith crossed a swift lett, damaging O'Dowd's right eye.
 In two 10-round contests, Eddie O'Hare, New York midd1eweight, re ceived the judges decision over Lew Rowlands of Milwaukee, and Willie Murphy, Staten Isa1nd featherweight won the udges decisions over Edward McKenna of California

HILL TOPS WALLOP
 HOMESTEADS 60

The Hill Tops lead by Capt. N. Ken ney, outclassed the Homesteads at every angle of the game. last Saturday, the score not properly showing the super iority of the Hill Tops over their op- ponents When time was up the Hill boys led by to score.
 The Hill Tops smashed through the Homesteads line at will while the Homesteads made but one first down. The game was marred by the poor knowledge of the game displayed by the officials all of whom being former mem bers of the Homesteads.
 The game was stopped at the end of the third period when Capt. Rafhle of the Homesteads refused to continue play Beyond question of doubt the Hill Tops would have scored at least four touchdowns with impartial officials in charge of the game.
 This victory puts the Hill Tops in a leading position for the city cham pionship the 150 pound class.
 The Hill Tops are now anxiously awaiting to hear from the Nutmegs in order to arrange a game for Thanks giving morning.

Y-D'S PLAY SAVIN
 ROCKS TO STANDSTILL

A tumble on their opponents one yard mark cost the I'D gridironers a victory in one of the bitterest battles ever fought in this vicinity when the overseas outfit c1ashed with the Savin Rocks i'll a scoreless tie before a good crowd at the West Shore baseball grounds Sunday afternoon.
 The fast, deceiving tandem shifts of the Rocks bothered the visitors con- siderab1y in the early part of the scrim- mage, but the much touted aerial style of play for which the Savin Rock boys have become noted failed to material ize to any great extent except in teh third period when a pass from Gum rnings to Raff11e netted 30 yard gain.
 The game was one of the fastest and hardest fought contests staged i'll this section. When the night shades began to settle over the field the score stood 0-0.
 It is quite likely the teams will play again.

 Major Leagues

The big storm which has been hov- ering over organized baseball for sev- eral years broke with all it's pent up fury Monday afternoon and the horizon is still dark and forbidding with the major leagues in state of unsettleness and the minors defiant and looking up- on every move with growing suspicion.

WILLIAMS FOOTBALL TEAM TO PLAY LAKE TORPEDOES

Sunday afternoon the crack Williams team will stack up against the Lake Torpedoes, of Bridgeport, in the Park City.
 The Williams were to play at Provi- dence, Sunday, with the Steam Rollers, of that city, but for some reason or other the Providence team called off the game. This is the second time the Rollers crawled out of match with the little blue team.
 Manager O'Connor got in touch with the Lakes, and clinched the game at once.
 The Park City team is rated as even better than the Chains, and the O'Con- nor-Coden clan will have their work cut out for them in this game. "Howie' Baker, former member of the Chain gang, is playing an end position on the Lakes. Several hundred Elm City fans will accompany the locals.

GLEES FIND A TARTAR
 IN ALL-HARTFO ORDS

The Washington Glee Club played the A11-Hartford eleven to scoreless tie on Po1i field in East Hartford Sunday afternoon The Hill club, after the strenuous games they have played the past three weeks, had hoped that the Capital City team woh1d offer less op- position than teams like the Steam Rollers and Chains But in this con- tention the locals were mistaken, for when they took the field against the upstaters they were surprised to see the team they faced.
 From the very start of the game the A1l-Hartfords battled the locals as though their life depended on the out come of the game. Manager Coogan, of the G1ees, stated that from the turn things took he thought the G1ees were fortunate to get an even break, espe- cia11y as the team caught the home club on one of its best days. Forward passing was the long suit of the All Hartfords They worked three forwards for a total gain alone of 100 yards dur ing the game and these, with other short ones,s caused the Glees to put on full steam. >I In open-he1d play the All-Hartfords are said to be the best team in the state and they made good use of these tao tics Their line bucking was excellent and their defensive work was faultless. The Lander brothers, Kelly and Sulll- van played wonderful football for the All-Hartfords, and Breslin, Waters and Loomis were the shining lights for the locals. Johnny Nag1e played the second half, although his shoulder still gives him considerable trouble. Kelly was knocked out and removed from the game.
 The Al1-Hartfords are being coached by Mulligan, former Bates college men tor, and although little has been heard of the team, 1t is certain to be a lead- ing factor in the awarding of the mythc ical state title before the season IS over.
