LatZO Arrives Ready
 For Bogash Battle
DEMAND FOR ADMISSION TICKETS CONTINUES HEAVY BUT MATCHMAKER DIVER SAYS
 THERE ARE SOME GOOD ONES LEFT
 RAIN WILL POSTPONE BOUT TILL MONDAY

While. the demand for tickets for the big battle between Louis Bogash Of this city and Steve Latzo continues heavy, Matchmaker George Dwyer says there are some good seats left but they are going rapidly, From present indications there will be a very large attendance for the open ing of the new open air arena near the Casino on State street, tomorrow afternoon at o'clock.
 Should the weather be unfavorable for the settos the Bridgeport Athletic & Anustnaent company has arranged to have the bout on Monday but they are hoping for no postponement Rain, of course, would hamper the com pany, but it would by no means feaze the directors, Connie Lewis, Fritz Musante and Shang Wheeler, who have paid a premium of $225 on an insurance policy calling for $3,- 900 against rain.
 If an eighth of an inch of rain falls between 1z o'clock noon, tomor- row, and o'clock in the afternoon, the insurance company will pay over to the directors of the company $3,- e00 In the event that it does rain enough to interfere with the plans then the battle will take place on Monday afternoon which will be ob- served as a holiday.
 Iatzo, the TIauelton welter, arriv- ed i'm town this morning, according to his contract He will work out in one of the clubs Bogash is confident that he will put the bee on the only man who stands between him and a fight with Jack Briton, the welteI champion They all look alike to Bo- gash and he treats 'eun rough when they get into the ring with him. Fresh and rested from his vacation at the camp near Webster, Bogash is ana- bilious and eager to show Bridge port followers of the game that he is in the proverbial pink and trained to the minute
 Marto, Srsadman, McCabe, Mur- ray, Hall and O'Leary, the others who will assist in making up finely balanced program are in fine shape, according to their mana gers and the outlook is that sporting men will spend rare afternoon as the guests Of the Bridgeport Amusement com pany tomorrow afternoon

CHARGE MACK AND
 BAKER ARE PIKERS

Once more Philadelphia baseball fans are getting up on their hind legs and roaring indignantly at the deal they are getting. Philadelphia is tired of being the joke of big league baseball. and Is hot on the trail of Messrs. Mack and Baker. whom the fans accuse of being couple of pikers.
 The Philadelphia baseball magnates are playing the penny wise and pound foolish" game, and it's not Bo- ing to get them anywhere. Phfladel- phians who pay good money to see baseball games are entitled to be represented by teams capable of playing big league ball. This can only be accomplished by spending money. The Philadelphia magnates would be wise to pattern themselves after the New York Americans own CTS, who spent fortune to build up the Yankees. This fortune Is coming back to them rapidly, for the fans are quick to appreciate good ball team.

MOSBERG DEFEATS
 CASSIDY ON POINTS

The unexpected happened in the Olympic boxing tryouts of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut anna teurs, held last night at the 23d Regiment Amory, Brooklyn, when Sam Mosberg of the Pastime A. c. gained the decision of the judges over Frank Cassidy, national and metro politan champion at; 1855 pounds. Cas- sidy, who was victorious member of the American team that competed in Sweden last Winter, was a big favorite for the honors in his class, but Mosberg halted his career in the mi-fina1s.
 Mosberg assumed the aggressive throughout the encounter. He did all the leading and had easily the best of the first and third rounds, earning the decision by clear mar gin. The other feature of the semi final bouts was a knockout scored by Sam Lagonia, the clever boxer of the Bronxda1e A. C., national and State middleweight champion, over Johnny Hayes Lagonia let loose in the sec ond round with a fine. display of fs- tic fireworks and knocked Hayes down on three separate occasions be fore administering the final quietus, a little more than two minutes after the round started. He scored his knock out by a, terrible left to the jaw.

WILSON REFUSES
 TO ENTER RING


 Because of poor house it took the management of the Newark Sports man Club of New Jersey almost three-Quarters of an hour before it could induce Johnny Wilson of. Bos- ton, the middleweight champion of the world, to enter the ring for his bout with Soldier Bartfield of Brook lyn last night.
 Wilson, who was guaranteed $7,500 by the club for the contest, was of the belief that the crowd was not large enough to warrant the purse and re- fused to take to the ring until the management met his demands. Only 5000 persons were attracted to the scene of battle, which was in the First Regiment Armory. It was close to midnight when the title holder was finally induced to go on with the challenger. It was Wilson, s first fight since winning the title from Mike O'Dowd in Boston.

O'WAR GREAT
 HORSE OF TRACK

It's quite common thing for Man Q War to break speed records in his various races, but he broke another kind of a record entirely in the Stuyvesant Handicap last week when the shortest odds in history were quoted on him. viz: i to 100. Man O Wars fame has become so great that only one owner had the courage to enter a horse against him. Needless to say, Man O War galloped away with the race with the greatest possible ease.
 The popularity of Man O War has become so great among the race track followers that folks are beginning to call him the Babe Ruth of the race horse world. Man O. War breaks records with the same ease that Babe breaks fences

APOLOGY NECESSARY
 FOR MAYS TO PLAY

Philadelphia, July By making a public apology to Bryan Hayes, whom he hit with baseball here year ago, Carl Mays, pitcher of the New York Yankees, will be able to perform here on Saturday, after an enforced ab- sence from Philadelphia since Me morfa1 Day of last year. Mays says he is willing to make the apology, and by doing he can pitch here without running the risk of being sent to the jug. Mays was twir1ing for the Boston Red Sox when the in- cident involving Hayes occurred. Hayes was sitting back of the Boston dugout, when, during a rally by the Athletics, some boys began pounding on the dugout roof. Mays became angry. and blamed Hayes, who call ed him down. Mays threw a ball at Hayes, who is boxing instructor at the Racquet club, and hit him on the head. Hayes immediately had a war rant sworn out. In a conference to- day Hayes made it clear that he did not want any damages, but was merely seeking an apology, which Mays has intimated he is willing to give.

WILSON OUTPOINTs
 HATFIELD IN BOUT

Johnny Wilson, the middlweight champion, made his first appearance in the ring shere since winning the title from Mike O'Dowd in Boston by outpointing Soldier Bartfie1d in a disappointing twe1ve-round bout at Newark last night. Wilson had the better of the eight rounds, two went to Bartfeld and two were even.
 By using his long, rangy right arm to good advantage, Wilson managed 1 to hold Bartield at a distance most of the time, and when the Soldier did manage to break through the cham pion protected himself by clinching.

.ASKS.6Q,00 PUPILS
TO GUARD SAFETY
Dr.. BaIIou Would Like to See
Children Start New Pro-
tectiVe Drive.

Organization of the 10000 public
school children into a committee on
public safety" not only to protect
themselves from traffic danger. but
to protect the lives and property Of
others, is advocated by Supt. Ballou
in a circular letter sent today to
supervising principals.
The communication requested the
supervisory officials to. make syste-
matic efforts to instruct pupils in the
grave danger involved in crossing
the streets, and particularly ''in the
altogether too current practice of
catching rides on the rear of moving
automobiles"
The letter reads in part:
Some of the practices of boys and
girls are greatly to be deprecated.
Pupils should be urged to heed the
danger signs which are carried on SO
many trucks and delivery wagons.
and should be urged never to at
tempt to catch q ride on the rear
of. moving machines. The practice
of begging rides Of passing autoists
is likewise q practice to be con-
demned. In many of our streets it
would be impossible for an autoist
to stop and receive q passenger with
out serious danger not only to the
passenger himself but to the autoist.
to his machine and to other auto
.Althongh too many Of the auto
mobile accidents to children are due
to the fault of the children rather
