GOSHEN BOASTS PERFECT HARNESS
 ONE-MILE TRACK
(spccIaI to The Dcmocrat) )


 Now York, Dec 27--This blase
 metropolis, used to having what t wants 1t wants it, has discovered that at the neighboring town 0f Goshen is a race track as perfect as any of the far-famed circuits within 0 stone's thrw of Gotham. While most business cautiously feels it's way before spending any money for anything, the unusual spectacle of harness horsedom sur. passing all records for interest ana attendance in 1932 caused William IT. Cane, master of the Good Time
 Stable at Goshen, to make such
 improvements in the Good Time
 Park mile-track that 1t is now
 rated as ono of the best harness
 horse tracks in the world.
 Goshen blueback clay, which
 makes such fast footing, was first
 applied to the track, which for the last three years has reverberated
 to the trotting of the rich Hamble- tonian stake. Grading of the spec ial clay, which is noted for It's cushion and ability to dry fast, was done under the eye of competent engineers. Turns were widened and thrown up. Wooden bridges replaced by cement structures. Acclaimed at last summers meet as one of the best tracks in the country, various experts pointed out that it was unnecessary to spend so much money on the Gosh en circuit. But, they added. it | proves unbounded faith in the l future of harness racing when MT | Cane provides such plant for | the rapidly growing sport.

ANGELO, MORRIS
 TOP RING CARD
 HERE THURSDAY
New Haven Boy to Defend Title Against Bridge port Greek--BOth P0p- uIar Performers

The high commissioner of boxing in Connecticut. Thomas 10. D0no- hue, will be on hand at the Phoenix | Arena on Thursday evening to supervise the weighing-in of Spiro Morris, Bridgeport pride and joy. and Frankie Angelo, Elm City fla vOrite and state bantamweight champion, who will meet in one of the feature bouts on Promoter George Muiligan's weekly preeenta- ton of simon Pure fisticufiing.
 It was found necessary to enlist the aid of Mr Donohue when it was brought to the attention of the pro- moter that Angelo has fought his last two fights in this city over 120 pounds, or in excess of two pounds of the limit. It also developed that the last time these two youngsetrs met at Bridgeport. the title holder tipped the beam at 11S 1-2 at weighing in time, despite the fact that he was signed to come in at 118 pounds.
 Because of the fact that he is Oyer the weight limit, Angelo will be an easy victim asserts his rival Morris. who will be out to avenge c setback suffered at the hands of the New Havener in the Park City bout some time ago. Taking off the two or more pounds will be no easy task for Angelo, Spiro con- tends and he wil not be in the best of shape with hte result that the Bridgeport youngster is all set to virtually punch him full of holes Can Make Weight
 But weight limit or no. Angelo Is training like a young demon in tho Elm City and according to hts trainers will have no trouble in knocking off the extra poundage and they claim that he will hit an even 11s when he steps on the scales before Commissioners DOno- hue Thursday evening.
 On the other hand Splro, the Kreek punching master, is also working hard whipping himself into shape for the bout. He was greatly upset when he was returned on the short end of the last match and has been gunning for another shot at the title holder ever since. He claims that despite the fact that Angelo was awarded the verdict, the margin of victory was so close that the winner in no way demon- btEALeu tIdL ue was tHc UctLCT fighter of the two.
 Popular
 The two battlers are the most popular ever to step into the ring in Waterbury. The fans here like their work and they have yet to give a disappointing performance here and the followers of the sport are manifesting keen interest in the match. Several of the Greek orr ganizations of this city are backing their countryman Spiro and from all indications an interesting even. ing is in the Offing.
 Promoter Mulligan already listed teams from Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, New Milford. Oakville. New Britain, Derby, Torrington, and other cities about the state to compete with Waterburys leading representatiyes of the amateur box ing game.

Depression has swept away the bugaboO of "overemphasis"; the coaches have become financial guardians of college athletic sys- tems; the new safety code" of rule changes has diminished cns. uaIties, and there seems no internal or external conflicts in the offing.
 ''It should be the most pleasant- Iy peaceful meeting since the aeso- ciation was organized in 1e21," said w, II. Cowell of New Hamp- shire University, gecretary-treas- urer.
 Most of the 800 who will attend the two-day geBgion expressed sym pathy for ssgood old Dan" McGu- is slated for the assoclatfon's preB- idency - the Jonah" job of loot ball.
 McGugin is the association's first vice-presfdent, and according to Cowcll, .1t's the usual procedure for the first ''vice-president to bee come president" He is listed to succeed Dr Nal Stevents. recently resigned Yale pilot. Stevens is the fifth to give up a coaching post while occupying the prest- dency. So "good old Dan" appar- entIy will have no opposition.
 C0well said the most important matter on the program would be taken up today when Lou Little of Columbia breaches tho question: 'Should our representative on the rules committee be given vot- Ing power or continue to act in an advisory capacity only?'
 Most coaches believe their rep resentatives should have vote on the National Collegiate Athletic Association's rules committee. They claim the committee often fails to heed the advice of coach reprcsen- tatives.
 Controversy
 Some criticism of the new 'sdead -ball' rule was expected. Un. der this 1892 change the ball f considered "dead" when any pa1 of the carriers body, except hands or feet, touches the ground. MoM coaches believe this has dimin. ished injuries by preventing pilin4 on by other players, attempting to stop crawling. A minority claiml 1t has slowed up the game.
 The annual debate about the point after touchdown was to con. tinue. Coaches who have lost games through failure to kick the point were expected to claim thai this scoring doesn't permit trut show of strength between rival teams and that 1t should be elimi- mated.

United Press stan Correspondent.

United Press Stan Correspondent. Miami, Dec 27.--UP)--Those boys and girls who are reluctant to admit that Gene sarazen is the greatest golfer in the business to- day, should have been here few days ago. The British and Ameri- can open cham pion, armed with nothing more formidable than Q sand plaster, shot the first nine of the Miami Biltm0re Country club course in 42.
 In case that 42 doesn't sound amazing to you it's simply because you aren't familiar with CD the Miami Biltmore course and CD Q sand plaster.
 Par on the first nine is 35. It oughta be 55 with six strokes off for good behavior in the traps. To come within seven strokes of par with sand plaster Is 50 amazing as to be almost unbelievable. For sand plaster, which is nothing more than a. mashie nib- lik with flat feet, has normal range of but about 100 yards. But Gene, by laying up the face made a mashie out of the club, and ayer- aged 150-160 yards on his drives. The sand plaster Is about as fit for | putting as hoe handle. On tho greens Gene played Q sort of "rab- bit" bali--that is, one which hopped, skipped and ran toward the cup.
 And yet, with this club that was built solely for coming out of traps, Sarazen made two holes in par, was never more than one over
 par, was never in trap, never
 three-putted a green, and was | never in the rough save on those
