ards has realized his ambition, he is
matched with the junior lightweight
champion Johnny Dundee for a 12-
round decision contest at Triangle
park Monday night, Oct. 8. Local pro-
moters have tried for months to get
the feather champ Johnny Kilbane for

Bowling

The opening of the Pennsy Bowling
league Tuesday night at the Twigg
alleys gave very promising start for
the season. The various teams were
fully represented and the enthusiasm
ran high. The Railroad band did not
put in its appearance as was planned,
due to the fact that several players
were i'll.
The Pennsy team won the first two
games from the Keystones but lost the
third and final one. Castelluecio and
Smith were high men at the opening
games last night Castelluccio rolled
for an average of 172 pins in the three
games, while Smith passed him for
honors with high score of 1876 pins for
one game.
In the Pan Handle-Round House
games the Pan Handles lost the first
TO the Round House but copied the
two final games by narrow margins.
In these games, Broderick won high
average of 1853 and high score for one
game of 1873.
The Wrecking Crew completely
wrecked the hopes of the 7. n. 7. by
taking all three games. Leas was
high man in the average for the three
games with score of 1853, but Hase-
meier took high score honors at a
mark of 1877.
The officials of the league who will
serve to settle all disputes and argu-
ments are: j. Z. Collins, S. W. Hold
gin and A. c. Watson.
There will be a reserve list of bowl
ers for each team and if any member
of particular team is unable to APP
pear for the nights bowling, the re-
serve list is called upon by the cap
tain of that particular team.
Tuesday nights games are as fol-

 Yankee Dog Mascot.
 What appeals to me most of all however, is a surprise Wilson has in store for Georges. Before telling of it I must explain that in France Car pentier has a fine German bred police / dog of which he thinks the world soil this dog is always with him. though he never takes it out of the country.
 Now-Jack Curley. who is to be one of Carpenters advisers in mat ters pertaining to the coming fight with Dempsey-also has a police dog Several weeks ago Curley was sur prised when Wilson came to him and asked him if he might not take this dog to th2 Matt farm. Ee readily as the dog on the leash.
 Today the faithful Wilson has taught Curley's dog to understand a few simple words in French, such as Carpenter will use in addressing It when on the road

There are no bleachers around this ring and there will be none.
 Latest reports indicate that Car pentier will not reach New York be- fore Monday afternoon He will come dirctly to Manhassett, accord ing to Wilson and start light work Tuesday or Wednesday.
 Carpentier's routine in camp is very military. He rises at d certain hour every morning. He never varies. He goes on the road at cer- tain hour and at the start will do from 6 to miles.

 Alderman Lyle objected that the resolution was unfair and unsports- manlike because it 'creates prejudice before the courts decide that the men are guilty" but his objection was overruIed.
