come often. but carly
 The All-Coast Guard baseball team of New London has several open dates during the coming sea son. Any semi-pro teams desiring fast games and keen competition should write to Manager G. A. Tyler Section Base Four, New London. Conn.
 The officials of the Mohawk X. C. which conducts the amateur tourna- meuts at the Tabs hall In this city, late today received the entry Of Ray Hogan of TerryVille, known as the "rerryvlle Terror" in amateur ring circles.
 Because of the lateness or the hour, the officials of the club are seeking to secure another good en- try in the same class and if @ bat tier can be found. he will be enter ed against Hogan.
 Johnny Clinch bounded back into active competition again last night and took q decision from Pancho Villa of Hartford in a bout fought ln South Manchester. The local boy could appear every night in the Silk Town, so popular has he become with the fans there.
 Villa is certainly becoming the 'old war horse" of amateur fight | ing. No one has yet knocked him out and although the majority of the fans want to see him whipped, ! this doesn't seem fair to us because Of the good milling Villa always gives Whoever fights him must be in action all the time if he wants ! to win.
 Baseball starts here again next !, Sunday afternoon when the Falcons | get going against the x Y club ot New Haven. The Elm City aggrc- gation has always gathered togeth- ! rr a fast combination and reports { state that this years team is no eX- ception. With the Falcons forming | an exceptionally strong team the l opening game should be good one. 1
 NerWin Jacobson got into the Brooklyn lineup yesterday against , Boston. He didn't bat but had one | put out in the outfiold. It seems that | the gentleman who called us on the phone yesterday had the right dope when he said that Brooklyn would | win when Manager Wilbert Robin i son put Jacobson into the lineup. ! Maybe Uncle Robbie heard the | criticism and acted accordingly.
 The Hardware City A. C. will fur nish another card of professional fights to the fans of this city and vicinity at the Tabs hall on Mon [ day May ?. Erwin Bge against . either Tony Travers of New Haven, Irish Tommy Jordan of New York or Jack McNeigh. also of New York, will be the star bout.
 Jimmy Clinch last night signed to appear in one of the four round preliminaries. He will probably be ! stacked up against Johnny Mack of New Haven. Jean Borde, the French Bulldog" will be another principal in the preliminary and his antics in the ring last time earn ed him a popularity in this city that will draw many out to see him again.
 lay Kaplan will be another per former on the card. Fans .in this city have been wanting to see this boy in action for some time and their wishes will be granted on this card.
 Taking turn about the parks in the city will give one an idea of the good work being accomplished by the park board employees under the direction of Park Superintend- ent Ralph E. Wainright.
 The diamonds at Willow Brook park will also be as nearly perfect as will be possible while excellent work is being done with the tennis courts. Judge William F. Mangan Is fast becoming recognized as one Of the i leading handball experts playing at ' the Y. M c. A. Should he get into ] shape as far as wind is concerned, It there would be very few of the players now enjoying the limelight [ who could stand up against him. Tom Grove and Burt Loomis, two Of the best opponents of the game in the Y: M. c. A., learned much to tAelr sorrow the proWess of the ( judge with his partner. Joe Roche II and although they want a return ( game. they have already have been l told that they will have to get a f reputation before their challenge IT will even be considered. : Roche and Mangan are waiting ( now on their laurels for the next challenge and without doubt, an- other strong doubles team will be after their scalps before many days ! have passed by.
