and finish the fight, On the con trary, we think that both fighters will give his opponent a gruelling test. We depend on Kaplan's power to stand up under an attack and his great powers of rccuperating.
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

To those who say that Herman will not win unless he scores a knockout, because a referee in a Connecticut ring will not decide against kaplan, we reply that Com missioner Thomas Donahue will see to 1t that Herman or any other fighter who apcars in a Connecticut ring will be given square deal. Another thing, too the best that Connecticut can offer in the way of a referee will be the third man in the ring Thursday night.

New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

The old spirit was lacking in every department of the game. In the field, the Pirates, with few eX- captions, were terrible. At bat, they were comparatively strong, but their best men failed to do much ,ester- day. On the bases, they failed 10 even give the semblance of know ing what to do.
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

We still figure that kaplan is the best bet for Thursday night. This may moi, be agreed 10 by all, but our personal opinion is that the fcatherwcight championship will re- main in Connecticut.

Kensington had the spirit all the way through yesterday and they could not be beaten at the rate they were travelling. At times, Slim" Politis wobbled, but his team was there behind him and they shut off runs that might have done some damage.

GIANTS NEARLY
 OUT OF RUNNING

(Continued From Preceding Pege)
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

Everyone goes into a slump. And there Is no doubt but what the Pirates were in bad slump during the contests with Kensington. Then, why should classy ball team like the Pirates take two defeats so 10 heart that they talk about disband- ing?
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

Let the Pirates not forget that there are other seasons coming and although they may feel discouraged at the present time, time will heal their wounds and we hope to see them out there again next year put ting across their game as they have in the past.
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

It is rumored about that this may be the last of the Pirates as a team. but we hope not. The team has stuck together for a number of years and has always been to the front in the running and it would be missed should 1t disband at the present time. Just because the team goes into series and loses. does not mean that the team is no good and If this attitude is being taken by the Pirates, then they should get rid of N right away,

Jasper failed at short stop by making a number of bad errors, but his hitting sort of redeemed him yes terday.
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

Strange as 1t may seem, the big noises of the game failed miserably when it came 10 pinch. Zeilke was the outstanding bust of the series. He was brought into the Pirates lineup to take the place Of Beagle, ,gular first baseman who Is out with bad rupture, but Beagle would have. we think. showed more than Zeilke showed at any time dur ing the two games.
New Britain herald., 1925-08-24

Kaplan ruled the favorite in the betting but Herman does not lack for packers in New York. Reports from the Metropolis state that there arc droves Of fans coming down to Waterbury to watch the action in the bout and that the majority of them favor Herman to win.
