 In answer to a number of queries on the subject, we would like to in form the fight fans of this city that tickets for the Kaplan- -Battalino battle in Hartford tomorrow night are not on sale in this city. They must be secured at the stadium in East Hartford.
 New Britain fans in general favor Kaplan to win from Battalino. Some of the more eager ones, however, went up yesterday to watch the two boys work out. Reports are that they are both in fine fettle and some of the sentiment-if it can be called that-has turned to Batta- limo. Judging from his appearance. he will be strong and fast. Rap Ian is in the peak and if he isn't bothered by making the weight, the bout should be an outstanding fea- ture.
 Several carloads of fans are go- ing from this city, number of them leaving from Jake Jennings Cigar Shop on Church street. Jake and Joe Tiberge are strong Kaplan rooters. ..-., ....-
