.GULLO AND BYRA
IN feature BOUT
MGiden and Hartford Batders
Top Amateur Card

Vincent Gullo of Hartford. latest
sensation in the amateur fight
circles of the state. and Johnny Byra.
a slashing terror from Hartford. will
furnish the feature bout at the anna
teur fight tournament to be staged
under the auspices of the Stanley
Arena A. c. Friday night in the
Church street hall.
Gullo has become the leading
lightweight of the state among the
simon-pures and always draws full
houses in New Haven. He has been
bowling over all opposition in recent
months and at the present time finds
that Byra is the only obstacle in his
path for clear road to the title. His
opponent. the Capital City slug
ger, is tough customer for anyone
to meet. He has string of victories
to his credit and he expresses a
world of confidence that he will be
able to beat Gullo in the melee.
Because of the great rivalry be-
tween the two sluggers, the bout is
considered as a natural" Both are
of the slashing, smuggling type and
there should be plenty of action
when the two clash Friday night.
Another which might rightly be
termed the SEMI final, will be fought
between Barney Fox of Terryville,
an understudy of Ray Hogan, Terry
willie Terror not in the professional
ranks, and AL Gamer of New Haven.
Gamer is given the edge over his
Terryville opponent because OF his
clever style of boxing but word from
Terryville comes to the state that
boxing will not prevail against Fox's
ability to punch.
Eight other bouts are in the max
ing, according to Matchmaker Paul
Glickstein who has been placed in
charge by the officials of the new
fight club. He announced today that
the Franco-American club of Water
bury has entered an application for
places on the card and this team will
meet the New Haven arena team in
the remainder of the card.
The full card will consist Of 10
bouts, the first Of which will take
place at $3.50 o'clock. The return of
the game to this city after the mess
of last year, will be welcomed by the
fans.

HOG CHOLERA EPIDEMIC rs
REPORTED ABATING

The worst Epidemic of hog chole
The worst epidemic of hog chole-
cent years shows signs of abating In
November, according to Dr. /. K
Atherton, in charge OF hog cholera
work in the State, largely as a re-
suit Of the increased slaughter OF
hogs and the lessened use OF pork
from western states.
During November and throughout
the earlier fall months, the vast
majority Of cases Of hog cholera in
the State were attributed to the
feeding of--garbage or Other, table
refuse containing scraps of infected
pork. Local slaughtering, however
has reduced the number Of hogs and
has likewise lowered the demand
for pork shipped into the State, thus
checking the outbreaks.
In line with recommendation for
the control of hog cholera in Mary.
land DR.. Atherton points to methods
employed in Canada as outlined ir
the following report from the Veter
mary Director General Of the De-
partment of Agriculture:
Hog cholera seems to be well
under control and no extensive out
breaks have occurred during the last
seven years. During the last year
hog cholera was reported in only
the provinces of Ontario and Quebec
when hog cholera is diagnosed
all infected swine are slaughtered.
All apparently healthy hogs in the
immediate vicinity are immunized
with the anti-hog-cholera serum
alone.
1.-THE control of cholera has been
greatly assisted by the regulation
on garbage feeding. A license must
be obtained before collected garbage
may be fed to swine. 1t is required
that all licensed premises must be
kept in sanitary conditions and all
garbage thoroughly cooked. The
Importation, manufacture, sale or
use of hog cholera virus and anti
hog-cholera serum is prohibited ex-
cept by veterinary inspector act
ing under special authority
While DR.. Atherton does not be-
lieve that the Canadian plan would
be feasible or practical in this coun-
try, he does believe that the results
are worthy of consideration.
