how much Enterprise would win by. minutes, 50 seconds at the first mark and was g minutes. 10 sec onds ahead after 20 miles. At the finish, the American boat led by g minutes, 34 seconds, approximately two miles of water separating the rivals.
 Those of Shamrock's afterguard who watch the races from Sir Thomas steam yacht Erin expected that no race would be sailed tomor- row. Perhaps some change in rig is contemplated in the hope of getting more speed out of the green sloop. A one-day intermission may be had on the request of the skipper of either challenger or defender.
 Enterprise now needs but two more victories to keep the Ameri- ca's cup won in 1851 and emblem atic of international yachting su- premacy. in this country. Shamrock to lift the cup would have to take four of the possibly remaining races. Many things can happen in a yacht race and a sailing contest is never regarded as over until the last gun is fired. It would be hard, however, to find anyone reckless enough 10 bet that Enterprise and Vanderbilt will lose four out of five races with any boat of her rating. In other words, virtually everyone whose opinion on yacht racing is worth anything is convinced that the doughty Irish sportsman's fifth inva- sion of American waters has already been repulsed.
 .Today's race was scheduled over a Windward- -leeward or leeward- windward course of, 30 miles, to be determined by the race committee after the direction of the wind had been ascertained at the starting line.

Just what team the P. Ss F. Corbin baseball club of this city will meet in the semi-fnal game of the state industrial league championship play off, will not be decided until a pro- test that arose over a game last Sat- urday is settled by the protest com mittee.
 The complaint emanated from the contest between the Handley Ma chine Co. of Danbury and the Frank H. Lee Co., of Torrington. These two and the game was called in the 7th inning with Danbury leading to 1. Thereupon Torrington protested,
 The articles of protest are based on, an alleged agreement between the two teams with regard to a nine inning game. When the contest was in the third session with Danbury leading to 1. rain interrupted play for some time. When play was re- sumed, Torrington claims that the two teams agreed to play full nine innings no matter what the weather might turn out to be.
 In the seventh, another downpour came along and the umpire called the game off. Thereupon Torrington protested because the nine innings were not conABieted.
 The protest is now in the hands of the state committee and will be de- cided upon Wednesday, At that time the Corbin team will be notified ot it's opponent in the next game.
 In the other contest played last Saturday, the Gas & Electric Co team of Stamford defeated the Gen er;, Electric Go. team of Bridgeport As these two teams drew byes in the | first round, this was semi-fina game and Stamford will go into the finals against the team that wins be. tween New Britain and the opponen, it will meet after the protest is de. cided.
 The time and place of the nex1 game will be decided by the state committee.

BOXERS GETTING
 READY FOR BOUT
Kaplan and Battalino Are Both
 Strong BatderS

Hartford. Sept. 16-The duel be- tween Kid Kaplan and Bat Batta- limo at the Hurley stadium on We'd nesday night of next week will bring together two battlers who probably are tie strongest feather weights in the history of the game.
 Boxers. who met Kaplan in ring combat (generally to their sorrow), have been a unit in declaring Louis the strongest man they have ever taken on Billy Petrolle said Kap- Ian had the strength of a middle weight and admitted to being more or less discouraged when he hit Louis with all he had right on the jaw only to find that Kaplan paid no attention to it.
 The former champion has the neck and shoulders of welter- weight and abundant muscling; he is rather short on stature, but his physical equipment is concentrated in restricted area-he is small but all dynamite, high explosive from his toes to the top of his head.
 Battalino has an entirely differ ent build. But has good height for feather and does not incline al all to bulkiness. That is why he can still make f26, the featherweigh, limit, without real trouble.
 Bat, too, is possessed of unusual strength for one of the smaller boys of the ring. "As a strong as a middleweight," Bud" Taylor said of him after their first bout out in i Detroit last winter.
 The champion has given frequent demonstrations of his strength, no.

ENTERPRISE IS
 TRUE DEFENDER
Sir Thomas Lipton's Invasion Is
 Already Repulsed

Newport, R. T., Sept. 16 Pl- There was once a little navy schooner called the Enterprise and she taught the Barbary pirates a thing or two about international de- pertinent.
 Today Harold S. Vanderbilt and sloop he and his associates built to defend the Americas cup-and she took her name from the plucky lit tie sNlooner-weTe expected to give Shamrock V, her skipper Ned Heard and her owner, Sir Thomas Lipton, their third lesson in yacht racing. Yesterday and Saturday Enter prise led Shamrock V over the 30 mile open ocean course, which has it's start nine miles southeast of Brenton Reef lightship.
 She scored her two straight vic tories in air so light that the theory that the British challenger was a dangerous invader in mild weather has been discarded by the few who
 Sill retain any faith in the green sloop. The breeze Saturday had a maximum velocity of about eight miles an hour and yesterday it reached 10. In both races Shamrock followed Enterprise over the course. | Even faulty seamanship did not en- tirely account for Shamrock's poor showing and it was generally agreed today that Enterprise is the better light air yacht.
 Yesterday the S0-year-old baro- nets fifth challenger for the famous trophy left part of her ballast ashore-a ton Qf it-in the hope the Shamrock could be got going but her performance was even more sluggish than in the opening con- test. As a result decision was reached last night, after conference of Shamrock's afterguard, to return the ballast to the yacht
 This seemed a tacit admission of the challenger's mistake and simul- taneously, her intention to rely on better luck and seamanship in what ever prospect she may have of stag ing a comeback.
 Where Enterprise took the open ing race by slightly less than three minutes margin, she romped home almost 10 minutes ahead of the challenger in yesterdays race widening her lead on every leg of the 30 mile triangular course. The defender obtained a quick advan- tage as she crossed the starting line, footing faster and coming through Shamrock's lee-to effectually blanket the challenger.
 Thereafter it was just case of

There will be a meeting tonight at 8 o'clock of the Young Mems Club of the Sacred Heart church in the club rooms on Orange street to make plans for the fall and winter. All members are asked to attend. .
 Manager Val Gay of the baseball team declared today that the Sacred Hearts are done for the season be- cause of the fact that there is no opposition left. The Sacred Hearts would have liked to meet Kensing- ton in a series but the south end team is hooked up with the St. day and the Lenox of Wallingford for. the week following.
 Because of the fact that there are a few Sundays still left in the base ball season, Johnny Cabay, "Buder' Budnick and number of others in terested in baseball, have devised plan to form some all star team and meet in a series. For that reason g. meetingb has been called for to- night at the Republican A. c. head quarters and the following men are asked to attend:
 "Starhead" Budnick. Si Budnick. Joe Budnick, Stub Budnick, Joe Luty, Sullick, Partyila, Kredar Dal- kowski, Dobrowolski, Lipka, Kopec, Jasper, Fredericks, Tronoski, Zapat- ka, Gaida, Gray, Havlick, Wendros- Xxi, Gadomski. Grail. Martin, Wojack Kania, Salak and Jagloski.

 The roller hockey magnates are scheduled to hold another meeting in Schenectady, N. Y, next Sunday afternoon at which time definite plans for the coming season will be laid.
 The situation here remains at a standstill. Basketball will be played either at the state armory or at the Tabs. Roller Hockey may be played at the Tabs and it may be taken out of Connecticut altogether. There will then be league operating in New York state.
 The Pawness will play their first game of football on the home grounds of the Holyoke Ramblers next Sunday. The Holyoke eleven has some of the best former high school and college players in that section. This will be stiff test for an opening game for the Pawnees. The locals, however, expect to start the season right and they are con- fident of winning
 The Pawnees will go through a hard workout this week. All players are urged to be present Tuesday and Thursday nights at 6:30 o'clock at Willow Brook park. Definite selec- tions for the various places on the team will be made during these workouts.

Look again at the success

cess seems very noble-some
actually vicious-but the thing
that lay behind it was always

Faith. Take Al Capone and
Cal Coolidge. No two men could

his line succeeded. And the

They succeeded because they
believed in themselves and in
the life within themselves and
in the power of that life to
take them where they wanted

They are the mouth and the

Why do the wicked flourish
