ROrty and Fitzgerald "Hot" Over Article That Josephs' Man ager Put in Boston Paper - Claims No Foul Was Struck.

RortS orS mansger Ma of of sammy nu P Waitz and by Dave Fitzgerald, referee, to have Bobby Josephs, former New England fcatherWeight champion, barred from the rings of Connecticut and Massa- chusetts until Nick Carr, Joseph's s manager, rctraCts statements made through d. Boston paper concerning the recent Waltz Joscphs bout.
 Ii will be remembered that Joscphs foulcd Waltz in the fourth round Of their encounter. The blow was a left swing and was plainly seen by the majority of the spectators An eX- animation by two doctors proved that an illegal blow had been struck and the cup that Waltz wore. was dented. Referee Fitzgerald awarded the bout to Waltz, the first decision to be given in Hartford in more than 20 years, but declared that in his opinion, the blow was not intentional.
 Nick Car, however, had other ideas on the matter and he expressed them in one of his home town papers, He didn't adhere strictly to the truth but then he was probably of the opinion that it would go no further than Bos- ton.
 Carr declares in his article that the bout was held in New Haven, that Josephs hit Waltz in the mid-section and that Sammy went down but tried to get up to resume the battle; that Hugh Rorty was one of the directors of the club and yelled "foul' when Waltz went to the mat and that the cup was not dented.
 Referee Fitzfgerald was shown the article Thursday night at the Hanover A. C. bouts and waxed quite indig- nant. He will back Rorty in the latter's effort to force Carr to cor rect his statement and acknowledge that Joseph's struck Waltz low, there by losing the bout
 Kid" Goodman, who was in Jos ephs' corner, would also prove a good witness for Rorty as the Kid" was seen by the writer to examine Waltz's cup and note the dent in 1t.

 In battle at Houston, Howell was behind the bat and an nounced the batteries of the two teams brilliantly. His voice was futelike and created a splendid impression.
 The game started, and, accord ing to the Houston catcher's idea, Howell missed many of the balls and strikes Finally he could stand it no longer. Turning his head half around and growing through the lat, ticework of mask, he said:
 You can't get by on that voice alone, Harry; you've got to have an eye, too"
