NOW LOOKS AS THOUGH CONN.
 WOULD BAN SUNDAY BASEBALL
House Leader Buckley, as Well as Governor, Ex- presses Himself as Fa- voring Rigid Enforcement of Sabbath.

Hartford. April 12.-Rigid enforce ment of the present Jaws concerning the observance of Sunday which would prevent Sunday baseball will be sought by House Leader Buckley in an amendment which he announced yesterday he would offer to the bill legalizing Sunday baseball, which Governor Templeton has said he would veto. He declared that either the present law should be enforced or what is justified in Sunday sports should be legalized.
 The bill. which is now on the house table, would permit local option OH Sunday baseball. Governor Temple ton, expressing himself in opposition to it, has declared that under the present law Sunday baseball could easily be stopped if the citizens of any community desired to prevent it. His attitude is that local option now ex- ists in reality.
 Sunday baseball is played just out. side of Waterbury, New Haven and Bridgeport. While technically the games are played against the law, few efforts to stop them have been made. MT. Buckeley announced that he would call the bill from the table to- day, but instead of asking to have it passed, would strike out every thing but the enacting clause and offer an amendment providing for drastic enforcement of the present laws regarding the observance of Sunday.

SOUTHAMPTON BOUTS. WAITING FOR BELL.
Battlers Who Clash Tomorrow Night Reported in Fine Fettle

The stage is all set for the boxing
 bouts to be stage in the town hall in Southington Friday evening and the fighters and their managers have sent word that they will be in good trim for the evening.
 The officials of the Southington A, C., under whose auspices the bouts are being staged for the benefit of the Southington Public Health associa- ton, have announced that the seven bouts will be arranged so that each pair of minister's will face each other for the three minute rounds. In the event that the referee decides that the match is draw at the end of the third round, the contestants will con- tinue the milling for another round. This means that the fans who will at- tend the show will see at least 21 and probably 2S rounds of good figting.
 All We'll Known.
 The merits of some of the indiyid- ual boxers who will appear in the Mountain Town Friday night have been known to large number of the followers of the amateur matches for some time. Bill Cunningham of Southington recently fought in New Haven and after four gruelling rounds he was given the newspaper decision for a win. although the referee decid- ed against him. The bout was for the featherweight championship of the state, and since then the Southington boy has earned the sobriquet of the "Southington Flash"
 Joe Banack, who halls fom Wal lingford, will be seen Friday night in his last go as an amateur. He is booked to retire from the amateur class and will enter the professional ranks in the next few weeks fighting under the colors of the Meriden A. c. He will stack up against Kid Chaney of Meriden, and these two are said to be two of the toughest welterweights in the amateur ranks of Connecticut.
 Two coming stars who will be seen on the stage will be John Pilkington of Meriden. brother of Charlie, and Young Kaplan, brother of the Silver City's pride, Kid kaplan. The ad- vance dope of these two has it that, although they are appearing in two different bouts and are not to be op- ponents of each other, they will give a good account of themselves. Both have been carefully uttered under the watchful eyes of their respective brothers, and as both Charley Pilk- 1 Ington and Kid Kaplan are known this section of the coun- ,ry. they should be able to give some good pointers to the youngsters.
 Kid kaplan will have some time in he role of referee. This. as far as is tnown, is the first time that the kid | ,as been the third man in the ring. md the fans are now wondering if here will be a family row in case hat he decides against his brother.
 The other bouts on the card have ,een arranged so that the fighters are pretty evenly matched, and according o the dope, the card will be one of he best that could be staged The is trying to secure anoth- r bout for the night. but it is not ,nown if they will be successful. The ickets are now on sale and already looks as if there will not be enough o take care of the crowds who will ttend. The number of seats in the own hall are limited, and the early irds will get the worms in this case

COMPLETE CARD IS PICKED
 FOR MERIDEN MONDAY NIGHT
Some Fast Little Boxers Are Slated to Appear in Silver City
 Show

Promoter George Dwyer will break into the game again next week when on Monday evening, April 16, he stages plan-Bright show at the hall auditorium in Meriden. That the far-seeing Bridgeport matchmaker has grabbed off another money maker is evident for Bright one of the cleverest boxers in his class, and is pretty certain to give the Meriden boy world of trouble.
 Harvey Bright, known to the fans as Brooklyn's lighting Doctor" is a unique ring character and might al most be called the possessor of dual personality. In the ring he is two- listed, efficient fighter, making a profitable living in game where many a bone is broken. Outside the ropes he is a medical student, at tending metropolitan school, and nearly at the completion of the course that will give him diploma quali- flying him to set the bones his fellow minister's break.
 Since Clarence Gillespie found him in tourney at the New York Athletic club and removed him from the ranks of the simon-pures Bright has done some tall travelling and has a ring record that many an older and more experienced fighter might boast of. Joe Tiplitz, Pepper Martin, Kid Sul- livan, Charley Pilkington, Eddie Wal lace and Sammy Seiger are a few of the boys who have met the fighting doc" while his latest win was scored over Filipino Mike Ballerino at Madi- son Square Garden.
 Dwyer yesterday announced his complete card for the 18th as follows: In the 10-round semi final, Young Silverburg, the clever Ansonia boxer who recently kayoed Johnny Lucas in Meriden, will face Bud" Dempsey, a tough importation from New York. In the six-rounder, Chick" Brown, former lightweight king of these parts, will try comeback stunt against Battling" Brooks of Hart ford. In the four-round opener, Max Maravnick, a promising Meriden youngster, will tackle Johnny Nelson of Stamford.

ROUSCH READY TO QUIT
 ORGANIZED BASEBALL
Cncy Absolutely Refuses To Pay Him More Than $15,O0O For One
 Years Work

Cincinnati April 12.-Hopes of baseball fans that Eddie Roush would eventually come to terms with the Cincinnati National league team were given another jolt last night when the star outfielder announced his inten- ton to sign with an industrial team.
 Baking at the paying of $50 day for not reporting at the training camp and refusing to recede from his de- termination for three year contract. it appeared as if Roush would not be a member of the team this year. The latest announcement from the directors of the club was that it would not, under any circumstances increase its original offer of s15,000 and a one year contract.
