GOV. LAKE. ENTERED IN
 TOURNEY AT SHENEcoSSETT

A large entry list is expected to compete in the Connecticut state golf championship on June 2S, 29 and 30 and July l on the beautiful and diff ficult links Of the Shenecossett Coun- try club at Eastern Point, across the Thames from New London.
 The entry list will include Govern or Everett Lake of Hartford, who has quite reputation as golfer of prominence.

Among others who are eligible and who will probably appear are Reginald Lewis and John Chapman of Greenwich visited England and played in the championship there. The Shenecossett course is in excellent condition. Alex Smith, the well known professional, who has charge there, says that it was never better since it wos con- structed eight years ago.
 The Womens Annual Invitation tournament is ot be held late in Aug ust. Before this there will be a three day championship for men which has always been regarded as a big feature of the summer.

TED RUSSELL TO BOX
 K. o. PALITZ AT MYSTIC

Now that the boat races are over and the summer visitors are docking in fans can again turn our attention toward Mystic where they have been staging some real boxing shows. The Mystic A. C., have arranged a pip ping card for next Wednesday night which should pack the Willow Point Casino up to the rafters. Matchmaker Dang feels sure he has brought to-
 gether four bouts that will give the fans the best run for their money.
 For the star bout, Ted Russell, who is a great favorite with the local fans after his knockout over K. o. Miller and a 12 round draw with Billy Car ney at the Mystic Club, and has been going strong this past season having fought along with the two mention ed such good boys as Silent Mike De- ran, K. o. Palmer at Providence and he has had only one set back at the the hands of, Nate Seigel at Boston to whom he lost in four round will box K O. Palitz of New oLndon. Rus sell has no alibi to offer for his de- feat at the hands of Siegel but is anx- ious to box him again at the Mystic Casino. Considering the fact that there is only two men in the game that can whip Siegel, Russers defeat is nothing against his record as most of his close admirers seem to think that he was sent along too fast. In Dave Palitz he will meet a tough nut inasmuch as Dave has fought them all and is out to stage comeback after an ab- sence of 14 months from the ring. Dave never entered the ring without giving the fans a great fight, having fought Jack Britton the welterweight champion to F round draw, also a F round draw with Harlem Jimmy Kelly, Mike Morley and Lou Bogash Both Russel and Palitz coming from this part of the state has left the fans wondering just who's who and this bout should tell the story.
 Pinky Burns another favorite with the fight lovers has never met set back since donning the mitts, have had a draw with Kid Lewis, and K. O.s over Al Jennings of Bridgeport and

RAGING IS AGE-oLD
 CLASSIC SAYS HOPSEMEN

World wide interest in the S50,000 Kentucky Special Race at Latonia to- day is due to a deep rooted. inherited instinct in all men to admire horses possessing extraordinary speed, en- durance and gameness, according to the Hore Association of America.
 Racing began thousands of years before Christ, among Arabians. to de- termine the fleetest, strongest and most enduring horses, the lives of their owners often depending there on. Race winners were used thousands of years ago as sires and this steadi- ly improved Arabian horses. Later, the best Arab, Turk and Barb stallions were taken to England and crossed on the fleetest native running mares. History shows that the best of pro- geny was developed and. selected by racing. The standard of admission to the Thoroughbred Stud Book was originally based solely on performance on the turf. Only those having a high standard of speed strength and en- durance were eligible to record.
 Thoroughbred blood resulted from continual racing and selection, each generation showing slight improve ment over the foregoing. Three hun dred years of constant, selective breeding of mares to the neetest, most enduring sires, gave the thoroughbred extreme speed, courage, endurance and
Norwich bulletin., 1922-06-24

gameness, with the result that the breed has been used as foundation blood for other breeds, namely, Am erican standard bred trotter and sad dle horse.
 Thoroughbred blood is infused in some measure into Hackney and Nor gan horses. Thoroughbred is now the most used of any hot blooded breed for the improvement of saddle, caval- ry, hunting and polo horses.
 Down through the ages the race course has been a fiery crucible in which horses possessing the desired qualities in the greatest measure are separated from those less endowed. Successive races are required to emonstrate the staying quality and endurance of horses.
 There are only two things in the world which will arrest the attention of all men-beautiful women and beautiful horses. All over the world men watched with interest Saturdays race because they have inherited from their forefathers this instinct to ad- mire the endurance, gameness and extraordinary speed of fine horses.

FLOTILLA TAKES DECIDING
 GAME FROM FIT. SLocUM

The soldier nine from Fort Slocum N. Y, defeated the Submarine Flotil- la year ago, and on Thursday the sailors turned the tables, so the two teams battled it out Friday to de- eide the better team.
 The game was the fastest and cleanest played at the base field this season, not an error being made on either side.
 Duncan, a new entry in the Flotil- las roster of hurlers, was in the box, and showed enough stuff to rank him with the best. He not only shut out the. hard hitting soldier team but also let them down with only two hits, and one was a fluke over second base with two out in the ninth.
 Not one visiting player reached third base and but few got as far as sec ond. Pancoast walked in the third and was forced at second, after Menill and Eitsel put up pop flies to the infield. In the fourth after Butler flied out, Brooks singled into center and Will Hams sacrificed but Foster flied to Moore. Fox was passed in the sixth and reached second on 8 wild pitch. Menill also walked in the eighth but the following batters couldn't advance him. With two away in the final round Williams dropped puny hit over second but Foster famed and the game was over.H

DEMPSEY HAS 17 DAYS
 LEFT TO SIGN PAPERS

New York, June 23-Jack Demp- seN worlds heavyweight champion, has seventeenth days in which for mally to accept the challenge of Har- ry Wills, negro, for a bout for the title or have his crown put up for competition in New York state.
 This decision was reached by the New York boxing commission today as a part of the campaign started earlier in the week to force title holders in every division to meet ca pablo contenders or quit and start all over again. Two champions, John and Johnny Wilson, of the middle weights, have been shorn of their crowns so far as the empire state is concerned.
 Negotiations for a Dempsey Wills bout already are under way. Upon his arrival here yesterday, Jack Kearns, the champions manager, went Into conference with Tex Packard, promoter, and Frank Flournoy, match maker and it was announced that a tentative agreement had been reach ed, a efinite contract to be signed when a site was selected for the match.
 The commissions action was not news to this trio. Kearns directed at tention to yesterdays offer of Demp- sey to meet Wills if Rickard would handle the match and the promoters announcement that he is already searching for a site, involving the sounding out of various state box ing commissions for permission to stage a mixed encounter.
 T think everything will be finished before July 10, the date the commits sion has set," Frank Flournoy said. The battle may be waged in New York state, he added.
 Boxing followers here tonight were asking what would happen if Demp- sey accepted Wills challenge and Rickard were foiled in attempting to hold the match. An official of the commission said that issuance of the ultimatum to Dempsey does not ta- citly give that bodys permission to hold a mixed bout in this state and that the commission won't cross that bridge until it comes to it"
 If the two are matched, however, Dempsey w$u be permitted bD go through with whatever bouts he has allowed to enter into any boxing con- tract until after he has disposed of the Wills challenge, this official said
 After waiting three days after the time originally set, the commission iTrecoably vacated the middleweight title held by Johnny Wilson, of Bos- ton, when informed today that efforts have failed to match him with Harry lIreb, light-heavywetght champion who had challenged. In addition, the commission revoked Wilson's license to box in this state.
 Should Johnny Kilbane, deposeo featherweight champion, ask for per | mission to box in New York, he mus first post a challenge and a money forfeit with the commission, virtually admitting that he is not the cham. pion, the commission official further explained.
