Police BREAK Up
De MONSTRATION
ON The COMMONS
Arrest James Nephew,
Pleading for Sacco

BOSTON, Aug. 7.-Twenty-five
thousand persons were thrown into
confusion this afternoon when the
police broke up two protest meetings
Of Sacco-V -Vanzetti synpathizers. The
crowd was charged by mounted police
after an ultimatum to stop the meet
ing had been given to the speakers
by the authorities.
"We have just been notified by the
police to stop this meeting" cried
Harry Cantor, chairman of the meet
ing held under the auspices of the
Workers (Communist) Party, "but
fellow workers l think we will con-
tinue."
No sooner had he spoken than he
was jerked from his platform by the
officers and rushed to a nearby sta
ton. Then the police charged the
meetings, swinging their clubs.
The smash-up of the Workers
Party meeting followed a police at
tack on meeting held under the aus
pices of the socialist party. Permits
had been obtained for both meetings.
Mounted police drove their horses
thru the crowd and dispersed the sec
ond meeting as Harry Cantor, after
denouncing the death sentences on
Sacco and Vanzetti as piece of class
injustice, introduced Arturo Giovan-
niti, general secretary of the Italian
Chamber of Labor.
Arrest Chairman.
Police under Superintendent Crow
ley, armed with machine guns,
dragged Harry Cantor. As John
Ballam began to speak, the police
finished their job and dispersed the
meeting. Edwin H. James, nephew
of Henry and VIM. James, and Alfred
Friedman who attended the meeting
and who protested against the action
of the police, was severely beaten.
Scores of police, some of them
mounted, surged thru the crowd.
Many persons were brutally knocked
down. Others were dubbed by the
officers.
Then came the changing patrol
wagons and hauled several members
of the crowd out of the Commons.
The socialist party meeting was
broken up when Alfred Baker Lewis

TUNNEY ATTENDS
 BIG SOCIAL EVENT
Gene Calls "lOn6 Count" Criti- cism Of Officials Unsporting

Chicago, Dec. 14 P)-Inspired by the presence of Gene Tunney, 5000 Chicagoans joined in Christmas fund banquet last night which turn ed out to be of the most remarkable social affairs in the history of Chi cago.
 The Tunney admirers not only raised more than s30,o00 through the banquet, to provide Christmas baskets for Chicagos poor, but toss ed a shower of s1OO, $500 and s1,00O checks at the Christmas fund chair man for blocks of seats at a Christ mas fund boxing program next Mon- day. Nearly $20,000 was raised in d few minutes by this auction.
 The champion rewarded the gath ering with his personal views of the controversy over the famous Hong count of Soldier field last Septem- Der, in a Is minute address. The heavyweight champion expressed his opinion of anyone who would im- pugn the honesty of the ring off, cials or the city and state officials back of them. Tunney coined a word to describe such criticism, call ed it "unsporting"
 Incidental to his errand as an agent of Santa Claus, the champion talked boxing business a little with Promoter Jim Mullen in regard to a heavyweight championship battle here next summer. However, he re- fcrred most of the questions to his manager, Billy Gibson.
 Gibson said Tunney was eager 10 dctcnd his title here next summer, if a suitable opponent could be found. Negotiations must wait the February actions of Tex Rickard, he said, in carrying out the terms of a contract Tunncy now has with Ricllard for next summers battle of the century. First payments on such g match are supposed to be de- posted by Rickard then, Gibson said.

Amateur Roller Hockey Team

A. A. MILLS LEAGUE

The New Britain All-Star Hockey team will meet the Meriden All-Stars in Meriden Friday night in a pre- liminary game to the regular league contest to be staged there. These two teams met here last week with Meriden taking the long end of the score.
 The New Britain team showed ex- cellent play and team work for its first time out this season and the quintet should be in much better shape for the battle in the Silver City Friday night.
 The locals will lineup for the com- ing game the same as they did last week with Pete Fusari at first rush, Jimmy Clinton at second, Jack Flu sari at center. Frank Hoole at half back and George Bayer at goal.
 Manager Dick Hyland has received word that the Meriden team will be practically the same as the one that invaded this city and returned home with a victory. The game Friday night should be a hummer as both qui1tets form classy combinations. The contest will start at about o'clock.

NeH Britain Quintet Plays To.
 night Under Pro Rules

The Tabs basketball team of this city will journey to Plainfield to- night 10 meet the Plainfield Pros. i This will be the second battle be- tween the two because Plaintield handed the local quintet a trimming last Saturday night The Tabs will
 be under greater handicap in Ilainlield than they were last Sat urday night because the game to- night will be played under profess slonal rules.
 The Plaintield team showed su- pcriority over the locals at the anna teur game and it is expected that the quintet will show even better playing under the rules with which the players are familiar.
 New Britain will endeavor to set the Plaintield team down tonight in order to even up the score but it will be q hard job because of the total ''F"ro0re in the play under the i .... Il code. A great deal depends on the efforts of Mert Tay- Tor and Johnny Shechan in to- nights tussle while the absence of so many opportunities for the locals to commit personal fouls will prob ably enhance their chances of win ming.
 Plainfield is one of the best teams at professional play i'll this section of the country and because of this, many of the packers of the local team expect the Hardware City quintet to have rough sledding. Confidence is expressed. however, in the ability of the New Britain team to come through with a win.
