BEST FIGHTS OF
 SEASON ON CARD
Capacity House Enjoys Amateur Tournament at State ArInOry

The best all-star amateur card of the season at the state armory on Arch street conducted by the Mo- hawk A. C., under the auspices of the A. A. L., was witnessed by an- ether capacity house last night. The bouts were all of high order and only one knockout was registered during the night. Six New Britain boys were entered in the fights and only two of them were successful in getting the decision. Evidently the decisions set well with the crowd because there wa, no booing when the announcements of the winners were made.
 The biggest l 7set of the evening was the complete reversal of Eddie Lewis, local colored scrapper in his bout with Nick Florentino of New Haven. Lewis could not seem to get going last night and ,the cham pion of the 105 class easily won every round.
 Johnny Clinch showing a 100 per cent better form than in any of his previous bouts. took on a tough op- ponent in the person of Leo Provost of Holyoke and completely outclass- his game rival. He won the decision in three rounds.
 The bout otween Jimmy Moe of Hartford and John ,Bielski of Hol- yoke was the only one of the night to go over the limit. Moe was given the decisiorf after the fourth round had been fought. Henry Bell of Hartford, colored boy, scored tech nical knockout over Al Rode of New Britain. Bells opponent for the night was declared not in condition by the examining physician and Rode substituted at the last moment making his initial appearance in amateur ranks. He was no match for the Hartford battlcr. In the first bout of the evening. Al Fish of Hartford won from Andy Sheik of New Britain. This was in lthe 11S pound class. Johnny Clinch beat Leo Provost, 135 pound class. Louis Pellisser of HNNoke at 150 pounds, got the decision easily over Paul Grockritz of Hartford. The Hartford boy broke his thumb and was unable 10 use his left hand, | Anton Fortes of Hartford and Herman Levine of New Britain at t140 pounds, tried to settle a grudge land furnished the best thrills of the night. Levine broke his left hand in the second round, but refused to iquit. Fortes easily won the fight in the second and third rounds. ! Burt Mac v of Holyoke could rightly be termed the "Holyoke Windmill" as a pocket edition Of the Hate Harry Greb in his bout with Joe Maiseni Of New Haven at 1l2 pounds. The Holyoke scrapper flashed a clever attack and defense and proved to be too clever for his New Haven opponent.
 Nick Florentino. champion in the hos class, got the decision over Ed l. die Lewis of this city. John Hotter won from William Monitors in the l135 pound class. Both boys came
 from this city. Henry Bell of Hart
 ford scored technical knockout over Al Rode of New Britain in the third round.
 Jimmy Moe was forced to travel
 four rounds before he was given the
 decision over John Bielski of Hol- woke This was at 13S pounds and
 was one of the best fights of the night,

Chairman McFadden said. of the
American Bankers Association, the
Investment Bankers Associa ton. the
National Association of Credit Men.
the United States Chamber of Com
merce and the Federal Reserve Board.
He described the measure as one de-
signed to meet an emergency, and de-
clared that its immediate passage is
necessary.

PRINCETON. n. j., February 16.-
One more barrier has been removed
from an understanding of the 1nvlsi-
BILE universe of the atom by a Prince
ton University scientist, according to
an announcement made at the univer-
sity yesterday.
The forces within the atom. which
hold together the protons and cleo
retrospective and negative charges
of electricity, of which all substance
is composed-for the first time have
been measured directly and correlated
with atomic theory in the Palmer
physical laboratory by DR.. Karl T.
Compton, professor of physics, and
his associates, the announcement said.
This has been done by obtaining eX-
act quantitative information regarding
the energy in the various states Of
activity in the hydrogen atom. DIR.
Compton's experiments confirm the
theoretical explanation of the COM
position Of the atom made by the
Danish physicist Bohr. which has
been the subject of debate between
chemists and physicists, and hitherto
not confirmed by direct measure
ments.
Princeton physicists believe these
experiments will assist science in I'M
derstanding more exactly the condi-
tions of internal activity in sub
stances under which chemical changes
take place. and hence make it possible
to manipulate chemicals with greater
assurance of obtaining desired results

ORBIT THEORY OF ATOMS PROVED.
PRINCETON SCIENTIST DECLARES
Claims Exact Quantitative Measurements of Energ,
Prove Electrons Travel Like Stars, Rather
Than Pulsate in Fixed Positions.

the theory that each hydrogen atom
is like an infinitely small solar sys-
tenn, in the center of which is posi-
tive charge of electricity, the proton,
with a negative charge. or electron
revolving about 1t. When an eXter-
nal electrical charge strikes the atom
additional energy is given the elec-
tron and it revolves in a larger orbit.
When still greater electrical energy
is brought to bear upon 1t the cleo
tron jumps out into yet larger orbit,
and the atom reaches its maximum
state of excited activity when the
electron is knocked off.
