Y The high school quad looks
 pretty good and with few more
 weeks of practice shoul round into
 a championship outfit. With the \ material at hand there eems hard
 ly any excuse for no defeating
 Hartford this fall.
 Terry Parker is all tt to meet
 Steve Smith of Bridgeort in the
 feature bout at Foot iuard hall
 tomorrow night.
 Ahearn, Hawkins, Ring and Ravens is the nucleu or veterans \ around which the Hfford high

 No man shoui hope for success
 as dice throwf unless ne can ieet
 it in his bones
 Maybe the r@on the electorai
 co)lere has no Ceer leader is that is
 seldom has anyiing to cheer about. All of Man sWar's colts turn out
 to be great ruiers says head line
 as if apne expected them to
 turn out to blgreat violinists. Will Rogei says he can see noth- }, ing funny a man falling off a
 horse But if he falls on his |. funny bonelsn't that different? 7 Our ide or an optimist IS one

 Fomhly Gibbons says the trouble
 ' English heayyweights is that ey don't fight often enough. .. r. ', has been our observation that 4ey don't fight long enough. { They aresbullding marble base ball monument in Washington, a lribute no doubt.to Heinie Thinner lnan, who chased Eddie Collins Nome with winning run in a world sqe''
 Bill Tilden has enjoyed five years of uninterrupted success as a tennis champion ... What he does for recreation Is not known.
 Babe Ruth is undecided whether to spend the winter in the city or out on the farm and until this thing is settled one way or another the world can hardly be expected to re- volve in it's normal orbit. ] If it does nothing else, the $780, 900 purse will destroy the myth that Harry Wills is a poor. downtrodden stevedore.
 It Is easy to run bases on Dazzy Vance. star pitcher of the Brooklyn Nationals. A good baserunner can always figure when Vance intends pitching the ball to the plate. How ever, that doesn't worry Vance very mhch as he says you cant run bases unless you reach first. ~ The spitball will be passe in the major leagues in about five years. Only seven pitchers remain, and some of them are fast slipping. | shockcr, Grimes, Faber and Covel- eskie are the outstanding stars using the spitball. }, Despite the fact that Manager l Higgins says he is perfectly satis- fled with the playing of Shortstop Scott. the Yankees are hot after a substitute able to take his place. Several minor league stars have been signed.
 Manager Sisler of the St. Louis Browns has practically given up |. nope that southpaw Pruett will ever develop into regular Pruett lacks the necessary stamina. Chuckie Wojak played great same at short for the Corbin Red so sesterday. His triple with the nssss full was scorcher.
 "Goodie" Preisset also ieapcd into the limelight. He stole home. but was sent baek when the umpire claimed the batter had fouled the ball. On the very next pitch, how ever. Proisser came tearing home and was safe.
