Having de- feated Herman twice for title, Monty is of the opinion that the crown would look pretty good on a New Eng lander. However, the affair is of the ten-round decisionless variety, and there is little chance of Montreal gaining the crown unless he f1attens the champion.

Lewis Opens Door.


 As Lewis states, if the fighters and their managers mean business all all that is necessary is the signing of articles and the posting of forfeits by all interested parties.
 Fight fans are unanim ouSly agreed that a Bogash-Delaney bout would be the best card ever staged in Bridge port, and every sport is hoping that Connie Lewis can put 1t across.
 Quite a furry was caused in local pugdom not so long ago when The Times first suggested a bout between this pair of local boxers. At the time when Bogash was training for his bout with Soldier Bartfield at the Acorn A. c. he told the writer he was willing to go out of his class to fight Delaney.
 Jennings Jumps at Chance.
 Tho statement was printed in The Times sporting page and stirred Al Jennings. Delaney's manager. to ac- ticn. Jennings came back with the gash on any reasonable terms, and added that Bogash wouldn't be obliged to go out of his class to meet Delaney, as Looey's fighting weight was nearer the nidd1eweight mark than the welter limit of 147 pounds. Delaney's ring weight is 15s to 160 pounds.
 How Docs Smith Stand?
 Just how Joe Smith, BogaSh's rnan- ager, will look upon the Bridgeport A. & A. proposition IS a question and his ''say so'' is eagerly awaited by the local boxing fraternity.
 There's no doubt among ring fans that both boxers could meet at catch weights and neither suffer handi- cap.
 Connie Lewis declared this morn ing 1t Is agreeable to him to hold a conference with the boxers and their ring representatives at any time.
 Jack McGee a Promoter.
 Jack McGee, the local "Joe Hum phreys," announced yesterday he is making plans to put on a show in the near future. McGee's tentative card would bring Spider Roach, who has a knockout over Red" Allen to his credit and Sailor Darcey, who kayoed Allen last Monday night, to- gether in the main bout Other bouts slated are Patsy Bogash and Bud Palmer. Young Luby and Billy Prince. and Babe Sharkey and Kid Lewis

Rodriguez on Job In 'Cr1SlS.
 Joe Rodriguez was there in the ninth inning crisis when Old Man Gloom appeared on the scene. Spring. field had three men perched on the bags with one down. With Jack Flynn at the bat the valiants scented danger lurking near. It was an suspicious opportunity for the Ponies to break up the game, but the Gu bans fast unassisted double play was a barrier and thriller to the exciting climax.

How it Came About.

HOW It came ADOut
 Boehling was derricked for Born hoeft after the former passed Becker in the ninth. Simpson, the first bat ter to face "Slim," sacrificed, Clark singled and Wilder was passed. With the sacks filled Flynn apparently at tempted to tangle up the situation by bunting, but he popped a fly into Rodriguezs reach, the Cuban beating Wilder back to the base, completing the double.
 It was an inning of suspense but there were others. In the sixth with three on, the Derbies were unable to score. Boeh1ing made a try from second on Martins clout to center, but was thrown out at the plate via the Clark-Silva relay route. Again in the eighth Boehling perished on the bases after he had placed a pretty single into right. Emmerich follow ed with a long single to left which started Boehling on a dash to third, but Duffy's throw to Becker beat Dixie Joe" to the bag. The sprints winded Joe in both instances, the last run forcing his retirement from the game.
