Fred Jean, veteran roller hockey star, is out of the game for prob ably the remainder of the season. He suffered a broken wrist last We'd nesday while playing with the King ston team against Poughkeepsie.
 Duke" Dufresne, halfback for New Britain last year, drove a bail that hit Jean on the wrist, fractur- ing a bone for him. The accident was a peculiar one but it will keep the veteran out of play for some time. Since the accident, the King ston club has withdrawn from the league.

 Rogers Recreation Five, the lead ing New Britain bowling outfit in the state league, received a slight set back last night when it lost two games to Southington and allowed Torrington to tie it for first place In the league standing.
 Local rooters of the team feel that this deadlock will be only tenn porary as the New Britain team is growing better with each match. Al though the competition about the state is extraordinarily stiff this sea son, the Rogers team has the stuff to come through.
 We are receiving plenty of quips because we have seen fit to pick Battalino to beat Kid Chocolate when they meet at Madison Square Garden next Friday night. Usually We do not pick them but We have very clear nunch that Battallno is due to put up one of the best fights Of his career. If he does that, he will beat Chocolate.
 Word from New York comes 10 the effect that Chocolate is not the wonder tighter of past days. High living and loose training have pull ed him down a great deal. Yet, he will give Battalino a tough go but the longer the fight goes, the better we expect Battalino will be. The fight will be broadcast oEer the radio.
 A special train carrying fans to the fight will leave Hartford at 3 o'clock on Friday and will leave New York at midnight. Half fare will be charged. and stops will be trade at Meriden, Wallingford and New Haven.
 Battalino will have plenty of sup port in his battle with the Cuban marvel. The featherweight cham pionship will be at stake.

candidates in the primary election
will have won or been eliminated.
This paper has, of course, its

As a general rule this paper has
been republican in its leanings,
tho, on occasion, democrat has
seemed to be so outstanding cand-
idate that we have not hesitated
to support him. On the republican
ticket this year, the first name is
that Of DIR. Summers, candidate
for representative. He is unoppos-
ed for the second time and we fee
perfectly free to predict a victory
for him.
On the county ticket T. E

will make a representative who car

lis opposed on the democratic ticket
by Knute Hill, a democrat, who
has not found favor with the adj
ministration.
Four republicans are filed on
the republican ticket for sheriff
IJ. K. Mcfarland, chief deputy in
the office; G. E. McClendon Of
Richland; Chef MCGEE of Kenne-
wick and E. A. Silliman. We pre-
dict that their standings will be
about as we have listed them. Nc
Farland seems to have the edge
due to the fact that he has a work
ing knowledge of the office and
has really earned the position. He
is efficient and will make good
officer. The Richland candidate
has wide acquaintance in the
county which will stand him in
good stead.
Ed Keene, the county clerk,
should get another chance at his
Office. He has earned the right to
serve another term by efficiency
and economy in his department.
There s no particular sense in put
ting new man on the job when
the present one is doing the job
properly.
Harry Forsyth has made a rec
ord in the clerks office which has
discouraged competition. He has
done fine job in his position and
has earned the right to another
term.
Two Prosser men are splitting
the vote in the west end for the of
flee of prosecuting attorney
which ought to make it easy for
Chas. L. Powell, Of Kennewick TO
annex the job. Mr.. Powell is a
man of promise, with good
training and experience, civic
minded and a worker. He will fill
the office with credit to himself
and the county. He's the sort Of
citizen this country needs to keep.
Let's eect him. 1t can be done in
the primaries, for there is no DEM
ocratic candidate.
Reports from most of the school
districts in this end of the county
at least, indicate that Olaf Strand
void is handling the affairs Of
school superintendent in salts
factory manner. Our previous re-
marks on this question still stand
in this case. When an officer makes
good on his job, give him another
term.
Summed up, then, our choice
personally and from the standpoint
of the good of the county-is as
follows. Summers, representative
in congress; Brockhausen for the
state representative; Mcfarland,
sheriff; E. O. Keene, clerk; For
syth, treasurer; Powell, prosecu-
tor, Strandwold, school superin-
tendent.

In fact lots of dandy places TO
stop. Everybody was apologizing,
for the falls, as on account OF the

coming over. But there was some,
and it would give you an idea of
where they were and what would
happen to some water if it did

Then we went to see the fire
fall, on high cliff. They build

nine o'clock they push it over in a
steady stream that lasts several
minutes these burning embers, and
here you are almost a mile straight
down, and see this fall over this
great precepice.
Well it was beautiful sight.
Then we went to see'em feed the
bears. There is lots Of bears in
there, and they take the garbage
from the hotels and have little pits
built like tables, and spot lights
up in the trees, and it's on the bank
of this beautiful little river, and
all the crowd are just across on
the opposite side. They put all the
food in these places, and then they
turn the lights and, and all at once
right across the river is all these
old bears, fussing and eating, and
playing.

RED HOT STUFF
TO BE ON DECK
AT FIGHT CLUB

Enchiladas and tortillas, likewise
maearoni and spaghetti, will be the
ringside attractions at the Imperial
Valley Athletic club tomorrow night
instead of the usual soda pop and
cigarettes.
The decorations will be in honor
of Joe Peregrina, champion middle
weight box fighter of Mexico, in
cluding Yueatan, and Johnny Grella,
son of old Italy once removed,
who hangs his hat up III Fresno
when he is not busy in the squared
circle.
Joe plans on eating so much of
the favorite foods of his native
land that he will be too hot for
Johnny. Italy is not to be caught
short however when it comes to hot
stuff, and a couple of plates of gar
lie will put Johnny in shape to
make Joe feel like he needs gas
mask.
According to the out and out
dope, neither of the boys will need
help from the hot stuff and garlic,
both being able to do plenty of dam
age with the OLD duke, all that is
allowed them in the ring, except
the gray matter that boxer is sup
posed to have in his noodle.
Middleweights are usually favor
ties with the fans. Not as slow as
heavyweights, they can hit plenty
hard; not as fast as the smaller
boys they still can show plenty of
speed. The middleweight limit of
100 pounds is ideal for strength and
speed, and probably explains why
Sir Michael Walker is the best at
traction in the ring today.
Backing up the Joe and Johnny
ruckus, is good card with Sammy
Santos and Homer Gaines in the
semi-final. Sammy's claim to dis
tinction is a knockout over Johnny
Adams. While the San Bernardino
wildcat is on the down grade, he is
still good trial horse and any boy
who can put him down for the count
must have something on the end of
his glove. Homer, fighting on his
home grounds, is always danger
Gus hombre, and the little black boy
sure can travel fast. Against
socker like Sammy he will have
to keep moving al top speed to keep
from hitting the deck.
Pete Casas gets another shot this
week against lorenzo Apadoca of
Brawley. Tapioca, that is Appadoca,
has done little nose busting
around here previously and ought
to make the local tray carrier hump
himself for four rounds.
Pilino Kilatt, the boy with the
finger wave in his hair, takes ON
Floreneio Villa of Imperial in the
opener. Kilatt always tries and us
ually makes the fans feel like they
have had their moneys worth.
Villa is said to take after old Pan
cho himself, and Pancho was quite
a fighter as the boys who saw the
"Jawbone War" of 1916 can attest.
1t looks like an interesting eve
ming for the boxing fans, and any
one who misses out on the johnny
Joe set-to is going to miss a good
one.
