Juniors Look Like Best Bet

The junior class of the local High school is expected to win honors in the annual interclasS meet which will be held at Seaside Park, Friday. The 1922 boys will be led by Captain Matty Skane, who is looked upon as a sure winner in the half-nile and mile runs. Johnny Fitzpatrick will also be in the same events for the juniors. The seniors have only two distance men, Lyon and Flathers against Fitzpatrick, junior.
 The dash events will be distributed between the sOphs and the juniors. Ray Whelau has the edge over all others in the 100 and 220 yard sprints and with him listed the sOphS are sure of 10 points. The candidates for the field events are equally diStri- buted and several new faces are eX- pected to be seen in the pole vault and shot putting events Adams is the best bet in the shot put since Wales of the seniors will not compete. due to an injured foot.

Too Early To
 Brag Irwin

In response to a. request from The Times sporting editor. Arthur Irwin forwards the following dope on base ball prospects in Hartford
 Its too early for any forecast on the seasons prospects, but I am satis- fled that Hartford will have a good club. The three weeks spent here at Hackensack has done the players d world of good, despite the rainy weather, and we are, I am sure. in as good shape for the pennant grind as any Of them.
 ''The big squad has been cut down until only those who shape up as real ball players remain. Twenty men have survived the spring train ing and are going back to Hartford Three catchers, seven pitchers, seven indelders and three outfielders make up the roster.
 'I am especially hopeful of our pitching staff. Pennington, Head and Sloan of last seasons club are all in fine shape and looked good against the Syracuse and Newark clubs. These International 1eaguers scored all their runs in the exhibition games after pitchers, now released, had re- Ieved our veteran twirlers.
 First base presents something of a problem, though Hesse. now play ing the first bag, gives promise of de- very fast on the bases.
 Third base and shortStop are as yet unsettled. Brick Kane and Scheer are both playing. well at third. while Neher and McAlpine are performing in good shape at short.
 'fPre-season predictions never win pennants, so I won't make any pro- phesy or boast, but Hartford should be up there this season fighting with the leaders,

LOU BOGASH'SLE
 UNDOING OF MEL SON

Louis Bogash's powerful left was in evidence when he knocked out ''EVi1dcat'' Nelson in the ninth round in their bout scheduled for the 15- round route at the Broadway EXhi- bition Co.'S show in Gotham last night. The Bridgeport boxer tanned Nelson with a pair of hefty wa1Iops to the jaw after a. one-sided scrap in which Bogash had the husky Brook Iynite at his mercy from start to finish.
 When Nelson arose in the final round after the second knockdown he was unsteady on his feet. Before Bogash could land another blow, the seconds of Nelson tossed a towel into the ring. Bogash weighed 15O1a and Nelson sealed at 153.
 A most remarkable knockout mark ed the second bout, scheduled for 10 rounds, between Battling Lahn, the veteran Brooklyn boxer. and Andy Powers. Powers dropped his hands in the first round in order to protest to Referee Chuck Owens against all legged four tactics on the part of Lahn. The referee did not call time, and thereupon Lahn proceeded to clout Powers on the jaw and knock him down for count of ten.
 Johnny Fox received the award of the judges over Marty Silver in a six round contest.

Luby To Try
 For Knockout

Young Luby of this city expects to experience no more difficulty in his bout with Tommy Allen of Newark at the Columbia A c. snno oker Thurs day night than he did when the two met here a couple of weeks ago, at which time the bout was declared a draw. Luby actually believes that he will be able within the four rounds to get over a knockout, a thing that he tried desperately to do at the other fight but was prevented from doing by the shifty ringster. which Allen proved himself to be.
 The first preliminary will show Young Lenny of the Columbus Boys club and Young Ahearn of the Acorns. Young Jennings of the Black Rock A c. and Young Griffin of Strat- ford will appear in the second bout of the evening while the semi-final will bring together Frankie Chip of the Rosebud A. c. and Eddie Ed wards of the Walnuts.

Neal Ball To Shoot |Inside
 Baseball" To Local Amateurs

Neal Ball. second baseman of the New Haven Eastern League cham pions, and former Cleveland, Yankee and Red SoN player in the major baseball show, is going to give a talk
 on inside baseball'' to the members of the Industrial Baseball League at the '. M. C. A. tonight. Ball in his long diamond carer has always been popular with fans in every circuit he has played for the sterling traits he displays in the pastime. Ball is one of those diamond characters built on the same type as Eddie Collins and others who always play the game to win, and who are always square in their endeayors to bring victory to their clubs. Ball, who is Bridge port resident, has always been credit to the national pastime, and full house of factory athletes are eX- pected to be on hand to hear the veteran hand out some useful in- struction. An invitation was also eH- tended to Chief Bendere, manager of the Indians to be in attendance.

Wolfram Or Leasure To
 Twiirl First

The Brown Derbies will pull down the curtain on the 1921 baseball sea son at NewfieId Park today when Gene McCann's ''pennant hopes will polish themselves for the initial brush with the Waterbury BrasscoS tomor- row afternoon. The lineup that faced the Philadelphia Athletics Sunday will be in the field for the opener. accord ing to the plans of McCann today. Either Wolfram and Leasure will be picked to twirl the inaugural, was McCanns dope today. As a result of their splendid showing against the Mackites the locals injected a lot oi i pep and vim into their workout yesterday Today. McCann is drill ing his athletes in signals. Joe CosgroVe and his Waterbury team will reach town tomorrow morn ing and establish their headquarters at the Stratfield Hotel until Thursday night, when they will return to the Brass City to pry off the lid with Bridgeport on Friday.
 Fans are still harping about the brilliant fielding performances put up by the Brown Derby squad Sunday. The belief is general that McCann's outfit will make all of the other league combinations hump in the pennant race.
 No Releases Yet.
 Announcement today by McCann gives the information that no players will be released until after the open ing of the season. Under the league rules the limit is placed at sixteen players, and after May 15. Me Cam is in no hurry to let none of his men go until the season gets un- der way.
 Bridgeport has a trio of good catchers in Thole. Smith and Larry Kelly Although the latter has not been seen in a regular game, McCann entcrtains a high opinion as to the ability of the big fellow to hold his own with the rest of the backstops in the league. Kelly is a hard hitter which is a department McCann is now dcvoting special attention to. Kelly stands at the plate like a major and has a wicked swing with the bat. Those who have watched Kelly work out are confident he is the equal of either Smith or Thole and hope he will be retained.
 Inaugural Day PaYadc.
 Tomorrow's game will be followed street parade in which the Bridgeport ficiaIs of the Bridgeport Club, city officials and other first day dignatarics will be autoed to Newfield Park, the procession being scheduled to leave the Stratfe1d Hotel at 1:45 o'clock sharp, under orders of Grand Mar shal Jimmy Kelly. The Coast Artil- lery band has been engaged and will act as escort and will also render selections at the park before the game.
 Sunshine and a victory are the only requirements for a perfect day for local ball fanatics.
