'EBbE7S LOSES ID
 FRANKIE 0'bRlEN
Hartford Batler Given Close De.
 ciion Over Frttport Boy

Harry Ebbets, blond fstic produc; of FIeeport. l.. l., lost close and very unpopular verdict to Frankie O'Brien. Hartford middleweight. in the main bout of 10 rounds of the first open-air fight show of the sea son staged by the Ed Hurley Box ing club at Bulkeley Stadium in Hartford last night.
 Not in many moons have tn. fans in attendance been so split 'n their opinion on the verdict render ed by Referee Billy Conway. Mem- bers of the same party were divid- ed as to the winner while long into the night arguments of all sorts were being heard in the vicinity of the ball park.
 A knockdown for the count Gf eight in the second round very evi- dently gave O'Brien the edge, in the opinion of ringsiders. 4 whip- ping drive to Ebbets' jaw sent the Long Island boy to the canvas where he remained until the count of eight had been tolled over him,
 O'Brien made a great showing n the first few rounds. He sent pile driving lefts into Ebbets' stomach h and blazed away at his ribs and Ebbets, only in fiurriea, attempted a return sally.
 In the fourth round, Ebbets began 10 solve the attack of the Hartford boy. He blocked the terrific left and started to beat O'Brien to tn. punch. O'Brien used low duck ing offense and almost invaria bly,, Ebbeta planted solid right upper cuts to Frankie's face. Ebbets went on the offensive and he apparently hurt O'Brien time after time with his hard drives to the head.
 The bout was interesting despite the fact that on each clash both boys clinched and wrestled wi. Referee Conway being forced to pry them apart. O'Brien. usually q fighter with these tactics. kept rush . ing Ebbets across the ring and up against the ropes. Especially in th.. Siooih6 IouHuSs W HSII NhC went all in favor of Ebbets. O'Brian took desperate steps to cheek the FreepOrt boys attack.
 O'Bren might have made his winning margin decisive only for his failure 10 use an effective right hand. In the closing round he threw some right hooks that baf- ned Ebbets but failed to stop him. As the fight progressed. Ebbets ap- peared to grow stronger and O'Brien seemed to be getting weaker.
 Had the fight gone more than 10 rounds. Ebbets looked Ike . positive winner. Mingled cheers and boosa greeted the decision. ..

LABARbA LOSES
 ID KID CHOCOLATE
Cuban Loses Chance to Title by Coming in Overweight for Bout

New York, May 23 N1Kid Choco- late, Cuba's ebony boxing ace, has not yet reached the top of the ban |, tamweight class, but his finger tips are Eroping at the peak. The "Keed" lost a possible chance for recognition as champion when he came in overweight for 10 round bout he won last night from Fidel I.aBarba. his outstanding rival for the vacant throne. Before the fight started the New York State athletic commission decided not to recognize the winner as the logical successor to the title.
 Neither Chocolate nor the Cali forpiA Italian. who once held the hyweight championship, gained de- cisive claim to recognition through last nights furious battle although the Cuban kep: untarnished his rec ord of 1t7 fights without a defeat. Bath boys proved to the 1s,000 ex- cited fans that they were outstand- ing .emong the contenders for the bautam wslGht chasspionship. but uettucI UVuAVoott 0tcu " NAoAA 0N premacy over the other.
 A vote of one of the two judges and the referee gave the decision to Chocolate after ten furious rounds. The rinGside experts were inclined to call it a draw while the fans fav- ored the Californian.
 LaBarba's steady aggressiveness carried plenty of weight with the crowd, which rewarded him with a larger share of it's cheering after the decision was announced. He rushed and slugged through every round except for a brief period near the middle of the bout when both boys were glad enough to take . breath ing spell. He failed, however. to land as oleanly as the Cuban did or with such telling force.
 The smiling skillful negro proved time after time that it is close to boxing suicide to miss an attack di- lscted at him. Every tims Fidei failed to land with one of his furi- ous rushes Chocolate had him in danger. Chocolates best chance came in the seventh found when La- Barba missed his first wallop and the Cuban sen; him staggering to the

 Gaps between the new and old levees at Hickman continued to be filled successfully today. Mounds Landing workmen spent more time reinforcing the levee which gave way in 1927 flooding GreeAville and thousands of acres of valuable land. The single break on the St. Francis at Kennett-three days ago, ap- peared today to be the only worry of large crews there. The break less ened the danger on other weak spots in levees.
