NEW TITLEHOLDERS
 MADE THIS YEAR
Four Crowns Have Been TOppled
 So Far This Year

This has been a rather eventful year for fistic champions. With 1926 little more than seven months along four new titleholders have been crowned.
 Only the fact that Babe Herman didn't make weight enabled Tod Morgan to retain his junior light weight honors. Herman won de- cisively from the Californian.
 Paul Berlenbach is the latest champion to lose his title. AS pre- dicted by most Of the experts, Jack Delaney proved his superiority but not by the knockout route as gen. orally expected. He merely won on points.
 Not One "Kayo" Victory
 As a matter of fact, of the four titles that changed hands, not one was won by "kayo." Tiger Flow CTS beat Harry Greb on points. Pete Latzo received the decision over Mickey Walker, Sammy Man dell just managed to shade Rocky Kansas, while Delaney proved too clever for Berlenbach.
 Winning a championship is far more impressive when the trick is turned with a ep-producing punch. So in that respect all the new champions have left something to be desired.
 Kid Kaplan and Fidel La Barba, feather and flyweight champions, re- spectively. are the only ones to have successfully defended their cham pionships during 1926.
 Kaplan, because of his inability to make the weight has since vacated the featherweight class. The new champion is yet to be determined.
 Truly. the year 1926 will be one long to be remembered by the pu- gilistic champions.

The Gascos and the Police de- partment went at 1t for three in- nings last evening at Willow Brook park and when the game was call- ed, the Gascos were leading by a score of ' to 3. We would have liked to see this game go through to the end because the Police de- partment has the best team it has ever had.
 Paddy O'Mara was behind the plate last night and during the game, one of his stockings fell down. One look at Paddy's shin and one wonders how he ever stands on his leg. That's from the days when they wore no shin pads" Paddy explained away the black and blue 'welts on the shin bone.

 Tommy Dolan is willing to bet his winter uniform that the New Britain team will come through with a win when they meet their Meriden brothers.
 It is very seldom in any league that a triple play Is pulled on d ground ball, but one was put through yesterday by the Boys club team against the Paradise Parks. It was one of the neatest exhibitions of team play seen in New Britain in years and put through as 1t was against a wide-awake team like the Paradise Parks, was no 1uke.
 The throws in the play were per- feet and made just like regular league ball players and although they were defeated yesterday the members of the Boys club baseball team should be proud of their achievement today.
 This leaves Paradise Park as the only team that has chance ot tying the Washington team in the league standing. If the Washing tons lose two games and the Para disc Parks win all their remaining sames, then the league will agaln , end in a tie between the two teams.
 Rain failed to interrupt the play ing of the Industrial league game between Russwins and the Corbin team last night. Russwins won the game on a piece of poor base run ming by Jimmy Chalmers. Every one said Jimmy was good on mud dy track so he was put in to run for Jerry Griffin. Jimmy was good in the mud, but his judgment was poor on a play wherein the ball was thrownAto the backstcp.
 Had Jimmy come in on that play, he would have been safe and the score would have been tied. AS 1t
 l., hn then went back to third and finally died there. Tn this way, the Russwins won the game.
 Two games will be played at the park this afternoon in the Indus trial league. Landers will play the Union Works and Stanley Works will play New Britain Machine.
 The league race is fast coming to A close and 1t will be tight one before the season is finished The battle royal will be between the Landers and Stanley Rule and Level teams if they happen to tie things up.
 It Is funny thing about the Cor bin team in this loop. On paper the team has the strongest combina' tion mof players, but in actual con- test, the team is weak. The reason for this is apparently given as the fact that the players forget to play baseball when they stack up against other teams.
 Next week should be busy one for teams In the Dusty" loop as a number of postponed contests will probably be played.

COBB'S SUCCESSOR
Leader Of Detroit Americans Has Been Praying For An Outfelder To Replace Him.

Tyrus Raymond Cobb's prayer that an outfielder be developed who could hit and field sufficiently well to enable Cobb to retire from active play appears to have been realiOd in Henry E. Manush, of the Tuscum- bia, Ala, Manushes. For more than a year past Cobb has not been in- sensible to stiffening joints that slowed him perceptibly. He remain ed in the game only because none of the younger players was able to beat him out of the job. ....
 For three years Cobb has placed his hope in Manush, Wingo and Fothergill, but none of the trio seemed able to rise to the oppor- tunity. This year. however, has seen the realization of Cobb's hopes. Both Manush and Fothergill are hitting upwith the best in the league-fit companions for the 1925 batting champion, Harry Heilmann-and both are fast.
 They are the reasons why Ty Cobb. basebalPs greatest star, Is sit ting on the bench.

Puzzle a Day

Mr.. Boriand has been busily en-
gagged in setting rat traps and fill.
ing and stopping up rat holes ever
since reading DIR. Cummings article
on the disease-carrying nature of
these rodents. All the holes made
by the rats were at last filled. But
one spot looked so untidy he decid-
ed to nail piece of tin over 1t. The
only piece he had was the one shown
above. The hole required a square
piece, so Mr.. Borland. with two
straight slashes cut the piece and
arranged the sections into the de-
sired shape.
If he used every bit Of the tin how
did he cut and arrange the sections
to form a square?
Last puzzle answer:
The fish, as Jimmy discovered, by
taking It to the village and weighing
it, weighed six pounds. Sincs the
scales were wrong, the way to find
the exact weight without reweigh-
ing the fish, is to multiply the two
known weights 20 times equals
36), and extract the square root OF
that answer. The square root Of
36 is 6. &c times equals 36). There
fore It is possible to get the correct
weight on badly balanced scales.
