one. Owner Weiss of Now Haven led the argument for t3re oppost ton to the draft and presented his case so clearly that after the different own CTS had exprssed their opinions of the draft and also of the optional agreement players there was no op- position to the action of the League to instruct President O'tSleil to op- pose the retention of the system In it's present form.

 Neither man, apparently was will ing to lead, each choosing to fight cautiously and, as a result the ac- ton fell short of what was expected. The first four rounds went to Bogash by clear margins. The fifth round was even and Downey coming fairly strong in the sixth, tucked away a slight advantage. Bogash managed to squeeze honors out Of the sev- enth frame by catching Downey with hard rights to the face. The eighth was slow, with the edge faworing Downey and Bogash took the ninth and tenth.

HARVARD WANTED
 BULLDOG TO WIN

Cambridge. Mass. Nov. 21-Gloom permeated the Harvard atmosphere this morning despite the defeat sus- tained by Yale in her game Saturday against Princeton. Frankly, Har- yard wanted the Bulldog to win, and the students are almost as much dis app ointed as the Ellis themselves.
 Hubby Grew had an tncision made in his knee and a bit of bone extract ed Phil Coburn was able to report but did not dress for play. The others who were kept out of work in cluded Dan Holder and Lou Gordon, the ends; Charlie Eastman, the tackle; Jack Hammond, the half back, and Phil Spaulding, substitute quarter to Captain Buell.. These players are considerably used up af- ter Saturdays stiff argument while they were still recuperating from the hard Princeton game.
 Captain Buell. ran the varsity and George Owen, Erwin Gehrke and Vim nie Chaptn were his associate backs. Buell. favored his injured leg, but Dr. Richards promises to have him fit to play as well as ever, against the Ellis. This seems to be the back field the coaches decided on for the Yale game at their meeting last night

Another E OOtball
 Star Failure in
 the Major Leagues

One more football star thrown for a loss. Tom Davies, the great Panther backfield star of the 1921 Pitt team, has been turned loose from the Giant en tourage and will cayort on the diamond at Toledo under Roger BreSnahan this coming season. Secretary Jim Tierney announced that he had been released un conditionaIly. He may be back again at that. John McGraw is convinced that he never would be an infielder, the job he was trying for, but thinks that he might make she grade in the outer ~aTSlen. Davies spent Sev- eraI months with the Giants last season taking a post graduate course in the McGraw school of applied baseball science. The Little Napoleon liked his work and ayers that BreSnahan is get ting something more than a great haIfback.

Disappointing Bout
 Especial to The Times.)
 Boston. Mass, Nov. 21-In a slow and disappointing fight before 1000 fans here last night, Louis Bogash of Bridgeport, Conn, outp ointed Bryan Downey of Columbus, Ohio, in ten rounds. Bogash's superiority was clearly demonstrated, but neith- CT man eXerted himself to anything like the limit.
 After three good opening rounds the mill deeIoped into a tugging. pulling and wrestling match with but few blows struck. The referee was busy prodding the men. The only excitement came in the second when it looked as if the fight might end early. Bogash caught Downey a wicked right to the face, flooring him cleanly but the Ohio man bounc ed back to his feet. smiling and fighting. Before the bell rang Dow ney was again sent to the mat.
 Following Bogash's early lead. Downey improved and some of the latter rounds which went to Bogash

Record Crowd Anticipated.
 The all-in portant contest will be played at Newfield Park next Friday afternon, and the largest crowd that has ever seen a High school game in Bridgeport, is expected to witness the struggle. It is the first time in history that Fairfield has had an eleven strong enough to compete against the Red and Black In years past 1t would have been a joke to pit Fair field Highs team against Brldseport- B. H. SIS second third string elevens used to take on Fairfield and to hand them thorough trouncings.
 Now it has come that the Hilltop pers will have to muster in the very best players in the Red and BLACK camO 10 give battle to the suburban ties with the result of the outcome very much in doubt Imagine! w hlle on the subject of Fairfield rising TO the top it may be menuoned rlSht here that a vast change has swept over Connecticut football in the past two or three years. Bridgeport stamford and Hartford reigned su- preme and any time any or these teams played any other elevenS in the state it was taken for granted each time that either of the above trio would be an easy winner. The Con necttcut championship would always fall in the hands of these teams. Tn the past two or three years Ansonia, Crosby New Haven, Torr1ngron, BulkeIey, Stratford, Norwalk and Fairfield have cropped up "Ilh SI machines which are no more consid- cred as minor teams and "soft pick ing but powerful to compete against Bridgeport, Stamford and Hartford, and others.
 Kish and Sherwood, Stars.
 In Captain. Kish and Bob Sherwood, Fairfield has two sterling backfield men, who are expected to give the Red and Black patches of trouble. Kish is a haIfback. He is a husky and rugged fellow, very fast, and IS a demon at carrying the pigskfn, while on the defensive he is a tower of terback. He is one of the snartest and cleverest field generals in the state, and has the elements of a triple threat. He can throw a for ward pass, kick and carry the ball. Sherwood's kicking was the factor in Fairfeld's victory over New Haven HilIhouse recently. He booted a field goal from the 35 yard stripe for the only score of the game
