Teddy Fabryk, War
 Hero and Athlete
 To Enter Hospital

Teddy F'abryk, well known athlete of Fairfield, somewhat of boxer in his army and pre- army days, and no slouch when 1t came to football either, will likely be missed from the Squar- ed circle and the gridiron as well this coming fall and winter.
 Teddy, who was employed at the American Tube & Stamping Co.,, after his discharge from the Yankee division, and who lately has been unable to work, had his compensation cut by the govern ment. In the meantime results of severe gaSsing began to show and Teddy has all but lost his voice. When he makes a buSi- ness of whispering and the lis tener makes a business of liSten- ing, you just can hear what he has to say.
 Teddy is now awaiting orders to go to a government hospital. He had one thorough examina- tion and If Teddy is as bad as some of the technical terms in a report received would indicate to the unsophiSticated, he must be a total loss. However, Teddy is a sturdy boy, and the government doctors say there is no indica- tion Of tuberculosis, and expect to cure him pronto. All his friends hone so, and will be glad to see him back in A. No. 1 condition.

 that the local promoters will adheNs to the policy, whatever demands arei

 way to suit Bogash. while Joe Smith; has ignored the issue, made a popu- lar hit with boxing enthusiasts, while
 met with bitter criticism The verdict seems to be that the crafty Smith is a bit scared of stacking Looey against Delaney, although the former has de- clared on several occasions he is will- ing to fight the hard hitting Jack With the sport in a precarious con
 dition, owing to the hard times, it ap-
 pears that the only logical bout to stage here is a Bogash and Delaney setto. It would mean real money for the boxers and also for the Bridge

The Crane team has in their last three games played 20 consecutive innings without having had @ run scored against them.
 The features of the game was the excellent work done by both pitchers, BuIkley for the winners and Scanlon for the losers, both allowing but three hits. The fielding of both teams was fast and accurate, only two errors being made.
 The Crane team challenges any semi-pro club in the city. games to be played nights or Saturday after moons. Games are wanted with the White Eagles, Locomobilees, KeHy's Keystones and Post Comps.

 Efforts are being made by the Bridgeport A. & A. to sign Louis Bo- gash and Bud Weafer for a bout in The wheels were put in motion yes terday by Connie Lewis and Joe Smith, Bogash's manager. Lewis and Smith had a conference on the sub fight association discussed the matter last night
 It developed at the Lewis-smith confab that Bogash is willing to with Bridgeport again and is willing to take on Weafer at from 147 to 152 pounds. All that now remains to bring about the bout is the consent or Bill Smith, manager of Weafer. Is Weafer "Ripe'' for Bogash?
 A few months ago Smith announce ed that it was his intentions of grooming Weafer this summer in view or challenging the Norwalk battler for battle during the coming winter. Whether Smith considers Weafer ripe to meet Bogash so early as Sept. 19 is 8 matter of conjecture, but the Nor walk impressario is likely to be ! heard from on the subject without any dilly-dal1ying.
 smith, Bogash & Co. informed Lewis that they are out for the that Smith and Weafer are also bent on getting all of the cain in sight be- fore the negotiations are completed. However, if the match is made, the 1 bout would no doubt prove to be a magnet that would lure fight fans from all sections of southern New England.
 Whether the Bridgeport A. & A. will consent to offer a guarantee or insist that the boxers appear on a percentage basis is problematical. | Matchmaker Dwyer.

With the Yankees today in first place as a result of their two wins over Washington yesterday, here's something for pennant dopesters to ponder over. According to a base ball statistician if history repeats it. self the Yankees c1fnched the pennant as American League records show that never in the history of the league has the team which was in the lead on Sept lost the pennant,
 The figures show, however, that the team at the top of the standing on this dAte dfd E0t always maintain the lead uuu tho end of the seeson. In 1904 tho Red Eox d1d not win the DeRnaRE from New York until the last day of ,sEh&AeaGnn. -bzf fhe TDeer6 zhRgsSaat 1
