 The best mediums for use in clean ing terminals that have become cor roded is a strong solution of washing soda. After the parts have been cleaned and are dry they should be given a light coating of vaseline to prevent a return of the trouble.
 An air vent is put in the bowl of 9earbureter to equaliZe the pressure between the gasoline in the bowl and the atmosphere, to o'byiate the forma- tion of vacuum in the bowl. It is vitally important to keep this hole open and not allow it to become elogged with foreign matter of any sort.
 In many makes of wire wheels the greatest care must be exercised in putting the locking devices in place. For instance, the right front lock must not be used on the left front wheel nor vice versa. In wheels of this kind it is quite within possibilities that with the wrong lock installed wheel might roll off while the car was in motion.
 Operating the engine without suffi- cient water or with no water at all may result in injury to the spark plugs. To give service without crack ing the plugs must be properly cooled and provision for this is generally made in the water jacketing system. When the water runs low the plugs become hotter and there is great dan- ger of their being damaged.

 Lundstrum and Williams. two local WrestlerS, went at it on the mat for 12 minutes, neither gaining a fall. Williams was notieeably out of scondi- ton, while LundstrtITn, who has been wrestling all during the winter. was in the best of form. Lundstrum was l2 pounds heavier than his opponent but yetwas unable to throw Williams, who slipped out of some tight places.
 The feature bout of the evening was between Austin Rice, one of the old timers, and one of the craftiest ring generals who ever stepped into the squared circle, and Sailor Jack Sulli- van, local boy and one of Rfce's pu- pfls. Rice showed all of his d-time form both in blocking and leading. He was quick as many a younger man. showing that time had not slowed him up to any great extent, Sullivan showed good form, although he appar- ently did not possess the speed and experience that his instructor showed This bout recalled to mind many of the battles in which Rice fought against some of the best ring artists In the country, including the bout be- tween him and Terry McGovern. When the bout finished Rice was in as good condition as when he entered the ring his six rounds of boxing not even making him breathe faster. Sullivan also stood up we'll under the treat ment administered by the old-timer. Both men mixed it up pretty lively at times. giving and taking some hard blows
 It was announced during the even ing that MT. Rice would give boxing instructions at the K. of c. home in the future and that any Norwich boys who wished might make arrangements for lessons at the home

FRED FULTON EXPLAINS
 CARPENTERS POOR SHOWING

Fred Fulton is one of those who de- clare that Jack Dempsey will have no cinch when he tackles Carpenter. Long Frederick also has an explana- ton for Caprentier's poor showing against Dick Smith in the French mans first battle since the end of the war. Fulton says he saw that bout and he was convinced that Carpen- tiere was stalling in order to create the impression that he was all in, as he wished to cinch the match with Joe Beckett, the latter being rather coy about signing articles.
 Fulton probably has hit upon the correct explanation of the French mans indifferent Showing with Smith. The difference between his showing with Smith and Beckett indicates that Carpentiere had something up his sleeve when he met Smith. It will be recalled that while training for Beckett the foxy Frenchman would allow no visitors to his training quar- ters. He did not want anyone to dis cover how good he was, but the nat ural inference was that he did not want the fans to find out how bad he was. Carpenter profted both ways as he not only took Beckett by sur prise, but he and his friends got a long price for their, money.

Paul, early in the third round of 8 ten round bout tonight.
 The blow that stopped Ertle was a right hand blow to the jaw, which followed a straight left to the face.
 Wilde was the first to land in the opening session. He peppered away with several straight lefts. Ertle got in some good right and left blows to head and body, but this apparently did not bother the Englishman.
 In the second round Wilde scored with right and left blows to head and body at will and leaped away from anything dangerous offered by Ertle. The round ended with Wilde having much the advantage.
 The Englishman waded in at a fast clip as the third opening, offering rights and lefts to head and body without damaging return and at the end of about a minute in the final session, Wilde caught the St. Paul man with stiff right to the jaw. Err ties hands dropped to his side and a second later he reeled, fell to the canvas and was counted out. He tried to rise but couldn't make the effort in the prescribed time
 Wilde weighed 1OS 1-2 pounds and Ertle 115 at 3 o'clock in the after noon.

Scouts. This was followed by an ex- hibition bout between Red Rankin and Tommy Winters. The bout went two rounds, when Rankin put over an up- percut to the jaw that put Winters out of the running. In the first round both Winters and Rankin showed flashes of speed and good sparring, but in the second round Rankin let out and had Winters at his mercy.
 The second bout was between Kid Burns and Young Belcher. Both boys were in the pink of condition. neither having much on his opponent. Burns was a trif1e slow in his work but showed some clever blocking. Belcher was the more finished performer,

CONN. TRAPsHooTERs WILL
 MEET IN BRIDGEPORT

The annual meeting of the Connee- ticut Trapshooters' association will be held at the Seaside club, BPS Lafayette street, Bridgeport on Monday, Febru- ary 2, at go D. III.
 At present only eight clubs belong to the state association, every rod and gun club or fish and game associatio1 should be affiliated A,4Cn this ergani- Zation. We want to see every club in the state represented at this meting, February 2nd. The secretary has sent notice to all the clubs he knew of but hopes that any one seeing this article will send a delegation to the meeting.
 A good many seem to think that be- cause it's name is the Connecticut Trapshooters' Association it does not take an interest in anything else. That is not so, it is one of the strc--sSSt oreariz tisnrs '-s t'7e etpt@ for better protection of our fish and game an t-4lAe.s ,~..,. ---~----t~ seeing that proper legislation is enacted at Ha~tfa~d at the legislature and sends legislative committee to all the i'm portAnt nearIngs before the fish and game committee.
 It shows what the c. T. s. A. stands for by reading article two in the by laws. This association is formed for tF4 purpose of securing and main- taining proper legislation for the pro- lection and propagation of fish and game throughout the state. For the vigorous enforcement of the fish and game laws and for the promotion of kindly intercourse and generous em- ulation among sportsman at the traps
 The 4rapshooting is a secondary matter and makes a fine. sport in the sum4Aer months when you cannot go in the fields hunting.
 The benefits derived from belonging to a state association for the trap shooting clubs are beyond conception, in fact club that does not belong to one doesn't have any standing in the state and cannot run a registered tournament, as the American Trap Trapshooters' Association, the nation al organization, will not sanction one

Boxing Notes

For the purpose of speeding up boxing bouts as well as relieving the boxers of unnecessary strain, it has been decided to permit promoters of boxing bouts in Seattle to stage matches of six two-minute rounds instead of the four three-minute rounds customary there. Announce ment to this effect has been made by Charles Hulen, secretary of the Seattle boxing commission.
 A similar experiment has been tried out in Portland, Ore, with complete success. The innovation has been popular with the boxers. who say it relieves the greatest strain of the match, which comes in the last min ute of the three-minute rounds.
