BROUILLARDO
 TO TAKE HEUSER, THEN ROSENBLOOM
German Has Seven Pound Edge in Boston Battle Tonight Immediate Fu- ture Depends on Shove ing Against Champ

Boston, Sept 22.-UP)-An old fashioned slugfest Is expected when chunky Lou Brouillard of Worcester, middleweight cham pion, meets Adolph Heuser, Ger man light heavyweight, in 10- round bout at Boston Garden to- night.
 Brouillard, weighing about 164, will give away seven or eight pounds to Heuser, but nevertheless is a general favorite to win. He labored under a similar handicap when he whipped Mickey Walker in their recent fight here.
 Ambitious
 The fight will mark the formal start of Brouillard's campaign to land the light-heavyweight cham pionship to place alongside his middleweight crown. He is point ing for ao match with Maxey Ros- enbloom of New York, although ready to meet Teddy Yarosz and other leading contenders for the middleweight title.
 After successive victories over Sammy Slaughter, Ben Jeby, and Mickey Walkter, Brouillard is at the very top of his game, but Heuser faces the alternative of snapping out of losing streak or falling in prestige. In his two most recent fights he was knocked out by Unknown Winston, Hartford, Conn, negro, and lost to Abe Feld- man because of a cue eye. In the semi-final bout tonight Johnny Rossi of Worcester meets Tony Celil of Leominster over the eight-round route.

STATE TOURNEY
 OPENS MORROW
Seven Teams Entered With Four Others Seek ing Admission

Hartford, Sept 22-Max Savitt, chairman of the board of direc- tors in charge of the baseball tour nament, which opens with a double -header at Bulkeley Stadium tomorrow afternoon has sent out notices for special meeting of the board to be held tomorrow noon at the offices of the Savltt Gems in the Hoover building.
 The purpose of the meeting is to consider the advisability of admit ting four other semi-pro clubs of the state. which are very desirous of taking part in the tournament. now that 1t has been deAhitely or ganized. Included among the new corners interested are the Home Circle team of this city, who par ticipated in the Twilight League play-off series, the Kensington A.. c. of Kensington, the Iroquois team of Bridgeport. and also a club from Meriden.
 The principal drawback to the admission of additional clubs would be that the schedule has been arranged on a seven-t team basis. with the New Haven Police, sufficiently fortunate to have drawn a bye which insures the cops a place In the semi-hnal round. It would be perfectly pos sible to hold an elimination series between the four clubs now seek ing participation in the tourney, with the winning team meeting the New Haven Police conditional that the latter will consent to forfeiture of its bye rights.
 Whatever may be the ultimate decision the two games scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, the first starting at ? o'clock, will be play ed as scheduled with another game on Sunday afterhon in connection with the game of the Savitt Gems. Even with the addition of four more clubs the tournament would be so arranged as to have the finals come week from Sunday, even though 1t might be necessary to play three games in single af- ternoon to accomplish that end.

racket quite popular there, selling issues q week old. Larry Doyle who has been scouting for 20 years and who at present draws 6 nice weekly check from the Detroit Tigers, saw the locals in action the first day, but didn't seem cnthused over anyone.
 However, he did ask Paulie Mueller a few questions regarding himself and regretted not being able to see him in action as he had heard nice things of his ability while lobbying at the hotel. {. Mueller had four stitches in his dent at the Waterbury Manufac- the team left. =. Bill Bradley who hunts ivory for the Cleveland Indians was also a spectator while Julius Solters, the $25,000 recruit the Boston Red Sox grabbed for next season from the Pittsburgh sandlots, took in the second game. The diamonds the locals played on the first two games were in very poor condition, as 1t rained eight consecutive days before the open. ing. BrasscO Park at present would look good as q tourney play ing field to some the officials sc- lected cut there this year. Art Kramer, one of the Oilers spOn- sored, made the trip with the boys, but had to return due to business reasons, Sunday evening.

"That'n be $22 sir" exclaimed the agent. q just want one ticket kind sir, this fel- low is remaining here" "Listen sir" replide the fellow beyond the cash box, "Even if I was going to Waterbury, it would cost me $22." .. Sam paid and boarded the rattler a few minutes later.
 The Pittsburgh papers gave the tourney very little publicity as the Pirates get all the writeups there, little attention being paved to sandlot ball. Steve Boroway fell aslepe on the way out and while dreaming of cracking out a hit in the tourney competition Earl Selenske and Harry Melvin burnt a cork and painted his face. |. | Y dliiilS tO ICdHZc its otSNC ChtcIe0 the hotel at Pittsburgh and when registering the clerk looked at him once. and piped. "Oh Lord, it's Frankenstein." Bobby Grea- torex was sensational in his field ing and batting in the two games and if there was anybody on the local team the scouts should have conversed with. it's that gentle manly lad.
 "Moon' Mullins. assistant man. ager. made q dandy mate for Paul Doran in keeping the party alive to and from the tourney After leaving the smoky City the boys stopped in Philadelphia for two nights where Mullins, . former snilor, took Mueller and Bllnn down to the navy yards and showed them crane which would pick up a submarine from the wa- ter onto land. v.

Reggie Root, head coach, was particularly concerned with the failure of the linesmen to get down the field and take out the second ary. They were able enough at the fine of scrimmage, but Root ln- dicated they were in for some in tense drilling on, other matters. Charley Comerford, the end coach also found much fault with the blocking of his ends.
