PILkINGTON READY
 FOR JOHN SHUGRUE
Meriden Flash Trained to the Minute Other Good Bouts

New Haven, March 2S.-Everything semblages of boxing fans here tomor- row night at the Arena, to witness the fine card arranged by Matchmaker k 6 Weiner of the Quinnipiac A. c. The head line attraction is the 15 round bout to a decision between Johnny Shugrue of Waterbury, and Charlie Pikington of Meriden. Throughout the state there is a divided opinion as to the probable result. New Haven and Meriden fans look for a victory for Pilkington, while Waterbury and Naugatuck valley rooters of Shugrue will go down heavily on their favor ite.l Viewing the condition under which the match was made, things look bright for Shugrue. It has been agreed by both boxers that the weights will be 1s2 at 2 o'clock. This gives the Brass City boy plenty of time between that hour and 10 o'clock at night when he steps in the ring to make up the necessary weight which he needs to be right. Pilkington has impressed many of late that he is a performer who wears out as bout goes down. This was shown in the Waltz and Reimer battles, where he practically had his opponents out in the first round. After they weathered the storm, they gave the Silver City boy a warm argument.
 Other Bouts on Card
 The semi-f1nal will bring together Mickey Dance of Daterbury, and Dave Medar of New York. Medar takes Collie Pienies' place who hurt a finger Saturday in training. This bout will be for ten rounds. An interesting battle is looked for when Joe Proto of New Haven stacks up against Billy Prince of Bridgeport. Willie Shugrue a brother of Johnny and Joe, will meet Spike Marine of New Haven in a six round curtain raiser. Dave Fitzgerald will be the third man in the ring

MIDDLETOWN Y. M. c. A.
 PLAY KACEYS TONIGHT
Benefit Basketball Contest for Ma chine Gun Company at
 State Armory

The celebrated Midletown Y. M. C. A. Basketball team, headed by Jake" Carlson, will invade this city this evening, playing the Knights of Col umbus quintet at the State Armory. The game was arranged by Manager Lawrence P. Mangan of the Kaceys and the receipts will be turned over to the new Machine Gun company. The officer of the company have had charge of the armory for the past few weeks, and those who have the op- portunity of doing business have found them to be straightforward in all dealings. u has been felt that in view of the fact that the company was just getting under way here, it would be a fine thing to show appreciation for the cooperation given local teams. and the benefit this evening is the result. If the attendance that has marked the games during the past season turns out tonight, the Machine Gun company will get a neat sum donated.
 Middletown I. NJ. c. A. played here a number of times in the past, at the local Y. M. c. A. There is no one who will not admit that the quintet always gave the local teams a fine run for the victory. The Carlson brothers, Spear, Hartman AhIberg and Salmon son, gang, has been going along at a fine clip this season. The game tonight will afford the Middletown team a chance to get acquainted with the playing surface at the armory, pre- paratory to the contest with the Springfield, Mass, Y. M. c. A. for the New England Y. NJ. c. A. champion ship, which will be played here on Saturday evening, April 9.

ATHLETES GOOD STUDENTS.
Only Three Men Are Lost at Annapo-
 lis Through Scholastic Ruling.

Annapolis, March 2s.-That the athletes at the Naval Academy are as a rule good students is indicated by the fact that of the 109 midship- men who recently had their resig- nations requested on account of failure to maintain the required stan dards, not one was a regular mem Der of a team in any line of sport. The only men lost to athletics in this way were Kelly. a substitute pitcher; Watson, a good hurdler, and Muno, a big fellow who showed promise both in football and rowing.
 Watson and Muno were members of the new class, and it is hoped they will re-enter. The greatest loss is in Muno. who had a promising future. He weighed nearly 190 pounds and made a good showing on the foot ball squad last year.

 "I signed a contract in 1918 as did Scott and Schang for three years" the first baseman said. My salary is s5,000. The other two play CTS have received considerations aside from those called for by their con- tracts and I begrudge them nothing. Frazee paid me a bonus last Novem- Der. As things stand now he has made me no offer or proposal of similar nature this year. although press despatches quote him as saying he has offered liberal terms
 McInnis said he was not hold out in the ordinary sense because he felt he was entitled to considera- tion beyond the terms of his written agreement. if fairness was shown. He said he was not a contract breaker and thought he had no cause to fear the result of any suit. He also as- serted that he had not yet referred the matter to an attorney.

Says Ne One In Florida Has Made a
Dollar on Citrus Fruit in Last
Few Years
(By United press,)

Atlanta, Ca, Jan. 29-Southern
citrus fruit growers cannot compete
with Italian, Porto Rican and Cuban
producers without tariff protection,
former Governor Cats, of Florida,
told the Southern Tariff Congress to-
day.
Cats said that he knew for a fact
that not citrus grower in the state
hf Florida had made any money in
three or four years, and attributed
this to the pauper labor with which
American production has to compete.
He said that in many sections citrus
fruit growers are going out of the
business, cutting down their trees
and planting the groves in corn and
potatoes
The former governor urged that
recommendations be made for pro-
lection of this industry. He said that
while he does not speak officially for
the state, that he has thousands and
thousands of friends who are giving
him their moral backing in this effort
to secure protection for the states
chief industry. il:

Washington Asks For Report


Washington, Jan. 29-The State
Department has requested General
Allen, commanding the American
forces in Germany, for a report on
the alleged attempted capture of
Grover Bergdoll in Germany, and the
reported Imprisonment of Americans
who made the attempt.
State Department officials admit
ted they knew of no way that Berg
doll can be brought from Germany to
face the law in this country other
than making informal representation
to the German government to urren-
der him. 1t has been by the most in
formal attempt of this kind, usually
made through a third country, that
the tate department has sought to
rescue Americans from Russia.
Officials also feel that Germany
will be adverse ii surrendering Berg
doll. The usual means of bringing
back criminals by extradition treaty
arrangements is unavailable as all
treaties with Germany have been
wiped out by the war.

PALATkA FIVE IS
ON MAY To eTATE:
BAskE: TBALL IT'LL:

In fast and furious game at the
Elks Club court. last night, the Pa
latka basketball five defeated the
fast Winter Park quintet by score
of thirty four to fifteen. This game
was played before the largest and
most enthusiastic audience that has
ever seen a basket ball game in this
city.
During the first half the visitors
held the locals closely and the score
at half time was fifteen for Palatka
and twelve for Winter Park. In the
second half however the better sta
nina of the Palatka athletes asser-
ted itself and they disposed of their
opponents handily to the tune of
ninteen to three.
The outstanding feature of the
evening was the magnificent play
ing of Tom Tilghman who held down
left forward for the locals. He
made eighteen points and his foot
work and uncanny eye for the bas
ket brought rounds of applause from
those present. Harold Hodge at
running guard did stellar work and
succeeded in rolling up fourteen
points besides holding down his man
we'll. At the defensive end of it
the two reliables Jarmon and Kersey
played with their usual vIgor and at
all stages of the game proved entire
ly too much for the visitors. The
other two points were accounted for
by Reg Hodge, who, while playing
the floor in good style, seemed una
BILE to locate the basket. 80
After the game the Virginia Jazz
Orchestra furnished music for the
dance that followed, and judging
by the calls for encores, they were
appreciated at their full worth.
The basket ball management was
entirely satisfied at the outcome OF
the evening and wishes to express its
appreciation to the fans for their en-
thusiasm and large attendance at
both the game and dance. The next
game will be with Duval High for
the S+ate, Championship,
