LOMSKI 10 FIGHT
 M'1IGUE TONIGHT
First of Light Heavyweight
 Eininatiens at Garden

New York. Feb. ! (UP)-The first of the light-heavyweight elimination bouts, to provide an opponent for Tommy Loughran. the champion. on March Is. will take place in Madison Square Garden tonight when Leo Lomski, the Aberdeen (Wash.) as- sassin. meets Mike McTigue. the former l75-pound title-holder, in q scheduled I0-round bout.
 The light-heavyweight title was within Lomski's grasp less than a month ago when the western terror knocked Loughran down twice in the first round. but Tommy got up and by masterful boxing took the decision at the end of Is rounds.
 Lomski is bent on winning the l75-pound title and then entering the heavyweight division.
 "Aftcr l beat Mcrigue and Slat- tery I'll get I.oughran in the ring again." he said. T won't be so anN- ious then and I'll correct the mis- takes I made the first time"
 A great admirer of Dempsey. the blonde westerner is almost Q replica of the former champion in action. With a wallop in both fists. Lomski plunges into action to get his man as soon as possible.

 Beaten by many second rate fight ers- but most always able to come back with a remarkable victory. Nc Tigue has been lighting for IS years and refuses to quit.

Nc Tigue had to stop in the l2th round when an artificial tooth cut a blood vessel and the bout was awarded to Sharkey.
 McTigue was knocked out recently in Chicago by Mickey Walker. the middleweight champion, and an- other knockout might cause the canny Celt to retire.
 \ terrific body puncher. Lomski may hammer the game Irishman into ring oblivion tonight. Lomski is a to ? favorite and the odds seem entirely justified. The winner of the 10-round semi final between Maxie Rosenbloom and Phil (k. O. kaplan will be recog- nized as logical contender for Mickey Walkers middleweight crown.

DRASTIC BILL IS
 APPROVED IN ITALY
Fascist Party Desires to Abolish
 Universal Suffrage.

Rome. Feb. s.-tRl-A bill abolish ing universal suffrage in Italy and bestowing the right to vote only upon those who contribute to the progress of the nation was approved today by the grand council of the Fascist party The project also makes Italy one party nation.
 Premier Mussolini took leading part in the debate which preceded adoption of the plan and presided at the council meeting.
 The grand council of the Fascist patry last November ordered the minister of justice to draft law which would effect a revolutionary change in the government of Italy.
 The project proclaimed that only one party exists in Italy. namely Fascism, and therefore there will be but one electoral ticket The con- ception of the right of franchise as outlined at that time was that 1t was privilege to be won by public service. The would-be voter must first prove that he was worthy to take a share in shaping the nations destiny.
 The council proposed: To unify the country's economic forces into 13 great guilds of pro- ducers and workers.
 To form the entire territory Of the nation into single electoral college. To grant the right to vote only to those who on the basis of their syndicalist contributions showed themselves to be active clements in the life of the nation and those who are useful to the nation collective ly.
 To reduce the number of deputies from 560 to <00.

MANY REBELS DIE FIGHTING MARINES
Fresh Graves Indicate Toll Taken
 in Nicara6uan War

Managua, Mic, Feb. R>-Fresh graves along the trails of northern Nicaragua today indicated that an indeterminate number of rebels had been slain in recent encounters with an American marine patrol.
 Known Dead
 The patrol reported to headquar- ters that seven rebels were known to have been killed and four wound- cd in five engagements, but that the marines were unable to determine the exact number of casualties since the rebels carried off their wounded. A wounded pack animal was the only patrol casualty.
 The marine patrol under Captain Roger W. Peard consisted of 50 men. It left San Albino mine. once the headquarters of General Augustine Sandino, rebel leader. January 20, going south to BHena Vista. They returned to San Albino two days later after five engagements with rebels, Marines believed that the rebels encountered were on sniping expeditions.
 Atrpianes Scout Region | Scouting airplanes flew over the region of the fighting yesterday after belated reports of 1t were re- ceived at marine headquarters. There was no evidence of rebel activity. In one attack 8 rebel approached an advance squad of marine shouting Amigo" (friend). He was shot down in his tracks by Lieutenant W. s. Brown.
 Attacked Patrol
 Rebels attacked the patrol just as it was preparing to leave camp on the morning of its first day out from its base. The marines had not pack cd their machine guns upon the mules. These were immediately turned on the rebels who were con- cealed in the jungle.
 Three other brushes between the rebels and Captain Peard's patrol took place en route to Buena Vista and the other as the marines were making their way back to San AL bino.
 Along the trails on the way back the marines noticed many fresh graves indicating that the rebel dead had mounted beyond the seven they had counted.

SD eakins of Sports

Az a sidelight on the play of the New Britain basketball team, we searched through the records of this seasons play to try and discover just what was the reason for the team dropping SO many contests both in and out of the league by one or two points and we have found it without much trouble.
New Britain herald., 1928-02-03

Against the Yankees of Hartford the team won but shot only 13 fouls of 2s tries. It lost to Plainfiel, by two points but caged only 10 of 20 free tries. It was defeated by the Atlas 3s to .4 making four points out of 10 free tries. The fouls would have made no difference in this game.
New Britain herald., 1928-02-03

Of all the games that New Britain has lost, there are only two that could not have been won. had the players been on their toes. Those two were the pair played against the At- las and a difference in the scores might have been realized had the players had their shooting eyes with them. We are speaking especially Of the teams ability from the foul line.
