Henlopen Post No. 5, American
Legion will hold it's morning Mem
Orial Day celebration at old Fort
Park, Lewes. The post will dedicate
one of the guns used during the
war as a memorial to the dead of
all branches of the service. A very
interesting service has been plan
ned, one that will not only honor the
dead; but will be a message of pa
triOtism to the living.
Congressman Houston will deliv-
er the main address, and those who
have heard his past addresses know

BUTLER PROMOTED AT SAM JOHNSON
Former Wilby Back Shift- ed to Varsity Backfield Berth By O'Leary

Bridgeport, Nov 4-The Samuel Johnson football squad went through a stiff workout yesterday at Harding Field. The high school team and the academy boys scrim- maged for most of the afternoon polishing up on the forward pass ing attack. The Samuel Johnson team showed up good considering their lackt of practice due to the rain Tuesday and the fact that many of the regulars are on the in- jured list. Chick Chihowski, the star fullback, received a bad shoul- der bruise in last Saturdays game against Manhattan Freshmen, Cap tain Ferrie, Scalzi and Leach are also nursing minor bruises.
 Coach Ray O'Leary used Joe Butler of Waterbury in the full- backs position during the work out. Mcintosh, regular tackle was shifted to center to strengthen the middle of the line. The coach is satisfied with the tackle position having three capable men in Clark, Cassillo, and Foye, Plans are being made to have the strong Mackenzie school, from Scarsdale, N. r., come to Stratford Election Day to play the Academy boys.

bit fresher, still found that Jeffries crouch impreEnab1e.
 As was customary, they rested up" during round saving their energy for the 18th round which was to end the struggle. At, the last bell, both were still swinging exhausted arms and standing on legs that buckled beneath their weight.
 Without hesitation. Referee George Siler walked to Jeffries' corner and awarded him the de- cfsion. Sharkey, thinking he should have been the new champion, stag gered to his corner, holding his glove against his barrel-like chest where the broken ribs were causing him agony.
 As Jeffries strode majestically down the aisle, Tom wearily stum- bled to his dressing room. He suffered intense pain for days from the broken rtbs--but the rancor in his heart remained for many years before Jeff's good-natured humor- ing finally healed that, too.

m ssnEDn ROPES

Everything but an East Indian typhoon happened last night to. put George MulliEan's amateur boxing show on the blink. but all the dark ness came before the dawn of a baing-up exhibition of slmon-pure fisticuffing topped off by few nov cities that sent a crowd of 500 home happy and smiling, thorough ly well entertained, ready and will ing to come back next week.
 To enumer4te few of the dark or features. The Springfield box ing team "had an accidentT and didn't show ID. It seems the bus driver bringing them to Water bury came by way of Albany. and when he reached Hyde Park re- membered that he forgot his rub bers and went back to Springfield for them. When Promoter Mulli- gan was appraised of that mishap he realized that he was left high and dry, and immediately tele- phoned New York for a few good a<Hateurs. two of which were ex- pected to make things interesting for Eddie Hogan and Joe, Steele, the local men of muscle. Every thing was o. K. thought Muiiigan, until later phone call let him know that the New Workers couldn't make it." having forgot ten earlier in the evening that they were due to attend an unveil- ing ceremony of another pair of Columbus circles under Jimmy Johnston's beady eyes. That was calamity number two.
 No Referee
 Then came the third ad decid- ing blow which changed Mulli- gan's mountain of hard luck to a status of carborundum. It just couldn't get any harder in one evening. A referee didn't show up to work the show, due, my Hart ford dictaphone tells me, to the fact that two referees were assign ed, then got mixed up in their as- signment so that neither one of them got here.
 Ten came the dawn. That well known man about town, Jack Fre- ney happened to be in the house in the role of an interested spectator, Mulligan asked Freney if he thought he could handle the re- feree's job provided Mig Wilcox or or Frank Hartford were unavail. able. Freney thought he could and did--to the queens taste. Twelve dandy bouts were whipped together, presented, and made a real hit with the fans. The Bill Brothers of Bridgeport, profession al entertainers. put on bag punching exhibition that was real classy. Joe Laviano and Johnny Dundee put on their musical act and that went over with a bang. Then came the real action, includ- ing the remainder of the show, five bouts, each one better than the other. Frankie Altieri and Danny Martin, Jr; showing up particularly well with a we11-earned decision and one round knockout. Tommy Mack had the customers holding their middles with a comical and ierious combination of ring work that was a classic in its own field

 Young Jackie Larrivee looked very good in his win over Adam Hitiuski of New Haven, though the local boy tired a bit in the third round.

HOLY CROSS FACE
 HARD ASSIGNMENT

Providence, R. l., Nov Holy Cross has been regarded as one of the hardest assignments on the Brown schedule since the opening day of work, for not only does the Bruin face the task of averaging last seasons 33 to 0 defeat, but will meet a Holy Cross squad that boasts some of the best material in the East. Although Brown. and Holy Cross have played nine games since 1893, Holy Cross has never defeated the Bruin until last sea- son, for the series shows seven Brown victories, one tie, and the 1891 victory for Holy Cross.

 the terrific fray between
 Champion Jim Jeffries and
 Sailor Tom Sharkey, at Coney
 Island in 1899.
 The animosity between the two contestants offered a striking con- traSt to the friendly atmosphere in which modern fighters mingle. Both Jeff and Tom are age-wearied men now, but 1t was years before the rancor of that night of may hem was buried by friendship. The savage thrill that the specta- that night will live in ring. legend forever.
 Ambitious! Jeffries had beaten Sharkey once before becoming champion, when rom was just green sailor from one of Uncle Sam's battle wagons. But this meeting wash to see the seasoned Toms heart broken, and his ambition-to take the belt back to his mother in Ireland-thwarted cruelty.
 Even before these two mountains of trained muscle and masters of the business of hitting and taking had come from their corners for the first bell, the intense heat from the overhead ring lamps sent streams of precipitation down their rugged bodies.
 As they swirled to the center of the ring for the first crushing im- pact, Jeffries came out of that ia nous crouch suddenly and landed a straight left that knocked Tom Foff balance and spun red haze before the eyes of the Pride of Dundalk.
 Jeffs lead was the signal for a barrage of body blows that were delivered as the two stood toe to | toe-and they were reluctant to go to their corners as the bell sounded. The two went tearing and punching through the first eight rounds with hardly 1etup-Jef- fries like bull, the water from his seconds sponge dried on his body by the heat of the lamps be- fore a round had gone half a min- ute. Sharkey was likened by the fistic writers to sturdy pony, rip ping and snorting, giving and catching punches on the body and head-and some of those he caught brought groans of pain from his clenched mouth.
 Once they charged together and their heads crashed with a re- sounding thud. Sharkey wore a red cut above his eye, but that was quickly patched up by the crafty Tim McGrath, who kept shouting advice to his warrior. Men of Steel Once they clinched and Jeff's hairy arms seized Toms shoulders and sent him spinning across the ring.

 They battled on, the advantage was now with the one, again with
 the other. Then, suddenly, with
 what many observers contend was the hardest punch ever delivered,
 Tom let go with a left that caught

 swayed, and his knees sagged a

longed to Hooty. But when those big
wings were folded and their owner
stood on the top of the post, Danny
Just simply ducked down and rubbed
his eyes There must be something the
matter with them. More than once he
had seen Hooty on that very post. He
was big and so straight that he looked
to be a part of the post itself His legs
were hidden by feathers. and of his
feet only the great cruel claws grasping
the top of the post could be seen. From
opposite sides of the top Of his big
round head Two little tufts of feathers
stood up like two little horns. Oh
Danny knew Hooty when he saw him
At least he thought he id.
But if this were HoOty on the post
now something was wrong. He didn't
stand straight like a part of the post
but more as Blacky the Grow might
stand if leaning slightly forward He
was hump-shouldered There were no
tufts of feathers on his head. His feet
were armed with great cruel claws, but
they were not hidden by feathers. nor
were his legs And such legs Danny
hadn't supposed that any member of
the Owl family could boast such long
legs. Il was no wonder that he rubbed
his eyes He was sure that something
must be the matter with them.
Very. very cautiously he peeped out
again. The stranger had turned and
such a face as Danny saw! Never had
he dreamed of such face! 1t was of
two great feathered disks from which
glared pair Of fierce eyes just above
hooked bill. That face seemed to
Danny like bad dream. and once more
he ducked down to rub his eyes.
