BRIGHT PROSPECTS OF BOXING

 Is Norwich to have some good clean of the questions that has been asked during the past few weeks. Rumors have been current during the past few days that may answer this ques- ton to the satisfaction of Norwich boxing fans. The rumor which has almost ceased to be rumor, is that a boxing club is in the process of or ganization. Also Dame Rumor says that the club has tI=a backing of one of the largest organizations in the city but this could not be affirmed on Sunday evening as members of this organization would neither affirm nor deny the rumor.
 It is known that this society is in favor of all clean sports that are pro- perl yconducted and furthermore they
 have the facilities fand men who have
 more than the average experience in
 the boxing who no doubt could put
 boxing on as high plane as any other
 red-blooded sport.
 If the runor proves to be true it will be welcome news to the hundreds
 of boxing fans in Norwich as they
 are clamoring for good clean boxing. There was time when Norwich was considered one of the stats strong holds for this sport but some bouts ! which the fans considered were not up to the standard spoiled the game here The fans are enxious to see Nor wich once more take it's place as one of the leading sport centres of Con necticut but will not stand for the over might fighters who sal through a few rounds, get their money and give Norwich the laugh.

 T>7 word score itself comes from the Anglo-Saxon. being nothing more than the word "scoren," which is the past participle Of "scoran"-meaning to cut. It indicates a notch or incision made upon a record of financial transactions.
 The "score-mark" was the twentieth notch upon which these primitive "ac- count books''-a cut which was longer and deeper than the others Hence the expression, "to pay off old scores" means not only the repayment of old debts, but the revenging of grievances which have cut deep arM left a lasting pression.-Exchange

YALE TOO STRONG A FOE
 FOR HARVARD ELEVEN

New York, Nov. 13-The smashing, plunging band of football warriors that carried the Blue standard of Yale to victory over the Princeton eleven Sat- urday in the bowl at New Haven is ranked, because of that triumph, as too strong foe for the eleven of liar yard, which the bulldog meets next Saturday in the last of the seasons Big Three clashes.
 Princeton has won from Harvard and lost to Yale. Should the great rushing power and speed of the Yale machine fail to carry it to triumph over liar yard next week, the situation thus created would be unique-a triple tie for the so-called Big Three champion ship.
 Captain Malcolm Aldrich's kicking toe was the real factor in Yales vic tory over Princeton, for the two field goals that Aldrich lifted between the posts carried the Bulldog to it's 13 to score
 Charlie oHearn, the Eli quarter back, made the Yale touchdown in the opening period.

SPORT NOTES

Bob Mepsel, who is waiting for Judge Landis to make decision on the recent transforming tour in which Meusci rar- ticipated with Babe Puth and Bill Per ley, is credited with having Title respect for the venerable judge. Whi e passing
 through Chicago Meusel was reported to have made statements that were far from favorable to Landis. Judge Landis
 made no comment or the matter, but probably is doing some deep thinking. Frank Chase, former manager and i first baseman of the Chicago Cubs when :; that team was one of the best in base ball, is the president Of the Winter ] League. Chance managed the Yankees with little success after leaving the i Cubs and then dropped out of baseball
 Chance may be seen in the big ieas4,- i again in a few years either as an owner i or manager.
